Legislature from Winona county. He is
getting ready for the ordeal; and being a

short, but loving his family, he puts forth
the following appeal to his delinQuents
for fuel, food and clothing for them dur
ing his absence:

to attend to our legislative duties at St.
Paul, on January 1st,, 1885, and in order

which to draw the means to provide for
ourself and little ones the necessaries of
life, hence. we are thus compelled to
plead, yea, even beg for that which is
legally and honestly our due.
