ever night overlook him. When he ar
rived in this city he. was suffering from
senrvy, and it was necessary, for his relief,

food, but he found that this was almost an
impossibility, for nothing was grown at that
time 10 this locality He says he paid 81
apiece for twelve potatoes and ate them raw.

large family of native daughters AL
