Although the thieves have been pretty quiet for ' awhile, they again visited the house of II. R. Hall last Friday ' night and made off with a quarter of beef. The people of this ctm- munity ought to investigate smh - doings.

If he had rsther steal than to work or aslc lor help, hurt him down and punish him accordingly. : Bruho." When E&by rras sick, we gave her Castorta, When she was a Child, she cried for Cantoris.
