to party Of seventy five or eighty, sent out
from Chicago. transportation furnished, by
the Metropolitan Employment bureau Of that
city, to work upon the Hastings & Dakota

being short of money, and their transportation
ticket being exhausted, they footed it to ST..

employment to commence Monday, but render
