u One Stephen F. Nuckolls is the Demo-
cratic candidate for delegate to Congress from
Wyoming Territory. In 1860, this man Muck
oils pursued fugitive slave, Eliza. from Neb-
raska to Chicago, claiming that she was his
slave in Nebraska, and had escaped to Illinois.
He seized her in Chicago in true bull dog style,
and was attempting to carry her away when
large crowd gathered around and eowed him
so that he was glad to have the police arrest

office few miles further, and send the negro

their letters, in the other they receive them
from personal servant. There is nothing like
sentiment.
