which compelled farmers to fence against the
large herds Of unruly and unattended stock
that roamed promiscuously over the country

his family, has left bis native home and emf
grated 10 this State and with little means but
willing hands and sturdy heart, permanently

vent that stock from injuring his less fortunate
neighhor. We say pass the fence law, ard DO
it quickly.
