seed sprouts up into a watermillion
vine; and that ere watermillion vine
grows, and meanders through that
ere fence into another mans lot, SO
adjacent; and in that other man lot,
SO adjacent, that ere watermillion
vine that sprouted from that ere
watermillfon seed and meandered
thro' that ar fence into this ere
other mans lot adjacent, therein con-
solidates and homologates into a
watermillion, the question, fellow
citizens and ladies, is: To which of
these ere men did that ar watermil
lion, so homologated and promul-
gated, belopS?-to the man who
planted that ere watermilliOn seed
that rleandered thro' that ar fence
into this ere man lot adjacent and
thar so consolidated into a watermil-
lion; or to the man who owned this
ere lot so adjacent, whar was SO pro-
mulgated the watermiilion vine that

million vine that meandered thro
