called to the conduct of a few boys living
OH the hill. Recently they have been in
the habit OF abusing an aged lady by
applying to her every foul epithet known
to the English language, and in one in

took her life, Besides they have beaten,
worried and maltreateI poor dumb brutes

city to pigs especially has been the remark
Of neighbors who have borne with them
until patience has well nigh ceased to be
a virtue. They will soon be dealt with
in summary manner, unless they mend
their ways. For the present we omit
names, out OF respect to parents. A
