We held maetin over it, and ths follerin
resolooshens wuz past:
Wareas, The Corners wuz ez firm in its de.

=, Resolved, That the Corners is Nv the opinyur
that it kin never regard the North ez a brother,
and Clasp hands with it, with one flag hyin
over em, till the Corners sbel see itself num-
Dered among the pints wich are to hev appro-
prlashens for Improvements.
Resolved, that the Corners is nv the oninvnn
that to restore that feelin NV absoloot yoonan-
unity wich is so desirable, and to bling the
Corners into perfect akkord with ther brethren
Nv the North, the follerin appropriateness by
the General Government is nessary:

to stay in peece.
There is other appropriateness wich don't
