issue uponit I. Having prepared himself with
a pathetic appeal on the subject, he repaired

was the first to take the stand. On the Steps

large, fat, good humored old farmer, famili-
arly known as "Uncle Billy Green" I'm

speech where, in answer to the objections
urged against him, he alluded most glowing
