Testimony of Three Workingmen.


On Monday last boy presented himself at the
counter of Jay Cooke Il Co., in Philadelphia, and
said that he wanted to invest $40, 900 in Seven
Thirties He uncovered that amount of money
from his person in grecnbacks and notes of Ohio
and Indiana banks. 1t soon transpired that he
lived in the western part of Indiana, and desiring
to invest in the Government Loan and thinking
with prudent simplicity that it would be safest
to get, his bonds right from Jay Cookies own
hands, he Travelled all the way to Philadelphia
to make the purchase. While there he received
the attentions which his patriotism and devotion
merited.
On Friday of last week German came into

thousand had been dug by these Germans out OF
the soil with hard days work.
