of the ca,ter. tAes found themselves ten
miles further from home, and compelled tol

The above, we assure the Eaquifer Is
NOT The truth. No man this winter has
been compelled to sell his grain or pork at
a sacrifice in Davenport; on the contrary,
we are informed by dealer, who IS as weil

These statements can be proved. and

Rock Island, which he did. The drove OF
hogs which Aessrs. B. & P. were then
