chopped to pieces end divided among
tho tribes. The other manly the name

ishod the miserable murderors of Love

THE fall Of Lovejoy was the death

ton. Many business men became dis
gusted, aud abandoned tho place, and
others who were seeking homes and bust

for more than twelve years, Alton was

recently that it has exhibited signs OF
