Abolitionists, will come-into COLI

1t twill be remembered that amin
human fend, named Gen. Mcneil
recently ordered ten men to be MUIR

the victims selected had . wife and
several small children, depending
on him for support; q noble, heroic
and generous young man, knowing
this, offered himself as q substitute
for the husband and father. Nc
Neil, whose soul never felt the i'm
pulse of o noble and generous deed,
accepted the offered sacrifice, and
the ten innocent men were shot on
their collins. Truly the incidents Of Of
