Had S. NJ. Carlson given the gallery
here his personal continuous attention
he could have built up an excellent
trade. But as an inexperienced hand
has been in charge and as the opinion

not been overworked, and it has now
gone back to Willmar from whence it
came. Pictures of which proofs have
been taken will he finished i'm Willmar

staid where they were. The lack of
progress made, no doubt afforded far
greater merriment for the bystanders
than for the gentlemen more nearly
interested but this had no influence

Justice to clerks who now have no
time except Sundays for rest and
recreation. All trading done after
