That they were fair ut all.

Most beautiful to me.

These patient hands kept toiling on
That children might be glad.

We stated in former issue that note

that the note was paid after some pretty
strong threats on the part of said competi-

us some light on this matter? Or will he
force US to publish a history of the case,
with the name of the party who executed
the note, the amount paid said competitor
in addition to the note of 81 500, the name
of the party who was witness to the agree

Hobbs ? The public wants to be enlight-
ened upon these questions, and if Capt
Hobbs fails or refuses to give them the re-
quired information, we shall be forced to
do it in our own modest way.

Nashville ofiice-peddlars. II Capt. Hobbs
fails to explain, we hope the Bulletin, in
its own modest way will give the full
history Of the case. 1t will no doubt prove
very interesting reading. 4
