All these years of experience In getting
i Vet and around the rough and rocky places,
h ,ve taught us the brittle thread by which
victory hangs suspended, and ih it cash be
fore delivery is the ouly way to do bam.
We th ink our friend, for paat favor., and
kindly ask a coittilitiauce of the aame; but
hoae we bare Iniated for one lo Iwo years,
