Simple minded and charitable commissioners,

the hurry of affairs make an coca sional slip

desirable to keep transactions private principals

allow small error easily condoned to appear

was called by a Spurious sheet of the day
'ochiteocashing," and a suit for defamation
was commenced by the honorable men afore-
said against the ''scurrilous'' sheet ending as
all know how. But this is too serious matter
to be quietly put out of sight by fair words A
ghost has been raised which grins too CHASTITY a
