the ballot box at CataWissa for Hart
ranft, of course by direction and order.
The result is shown in the return from
that district for Governor as compared
with the vote there for Judge of the
Supreme Court. Judge Thompson hap

favorable to the Company and he is
complimented by a majority of so a
Catawissa, while majority of 1l3 /:
