over the night.

not gone down to the Democratic convention
at Chicago. Happily musing over the good
time he was to have, and thinking of the
pleasant scenes of yore as he was going up

rifed his vest pocket of watch and with the
other appropriated $50 in gold, 81

walton by the court this morning.
