reached the jail court by means OF a light

wall by means OF rope that could have
been secured only by means OF outside as

jumped TO the roof Of the shed on the Old

An examination Of the cell disclosed a
very clever dummy occupying the cot.

When the Erie county contest came rp
William 4. Mackey talked for the First

This Is serious question. The

Bheehan side for all three districts, told
how 200 grain handlers carried off one OF
the houses at which caucus had been
called
