'ty OF theAdministration to paw all those who
are ready TO barter their votes, the "consd-

yet distant, that it would sweep over his farm
he determined if possible to save large rick OF
hay standing ~ the vicinity of his dwelling.
To this end he complence,l near the hay, TO burn

burnt his dwelling house. kitchen, barn, and
every ya-d of fence upon his ranch
