but unamous voIes In favor OF the law. However,
In Cornwall, a gentleman who has descended from
the pulpit to the practice OF Law, prevented The usual
unaBimity by persuading another individual to JOIN
him in his opposition, and he appealed to Scripture
to bear out his views OF the question.
At Easton the folio wing resolution was adopted in
favor of Nj Barnum It was proposed by DIR. Secye
