no. he remarked, that comes from in
completeness of title. The land above men
toned was purchased from the United States
government VI some time or other, possibly
by McCaTtney'S ancestors. In some way or
an Jther. either from a failure 10 record,
or from some other cause the title, though
perfectly good, was not quite complete.
Something in the chain was wanting Mr.
McCoriney therefore sent all the papers in

The Daisy Carroll trial possessed as
much interest in a local way for Spring
field as did the Beecher trial for New York
city. ItiS said that there were one or two
persons in this city who never lost a word
OF the evidence. or of the speeches. They
VI rried through the whole thing from
beginning 10 end. In this connec-

the trial. One man met another, and the
trial being uppermOSt in the mind, it imme-
datelv became the topic of conversation:
Strange thing what an amount of public
interest that trial excited, said No. l.

said to be the leading reed band in the
