is call humbug." The Freeman says;
The raid law is very good thing to hold
these gentlemen on till they can
be tried for burglary. There are no
doubt indictments hanging over them that
law will prevent them from leaving on
bail, as that is not allowed in cases when
the punishment is capital. Our good peo-
pie are not bloodthirsty, and the necks of
Messrs. Miles and Curley are what insur-
ance companies would call "good risks"
so far as their connection with the Barre
affair affects them. We recommend the
JoarnaL correspondent to apply himself to
the study of Vermont law little while
longer before he attempts to enlighten
others. 1t is rather sickly for a town to
have such letters as he writes dated from it.
