Why couldn't North Carolina, with

veloped in what Professor Guyot says is

Senator Vance began life and gradu-
ally worked his way up to congress,
where he has nothing to do from morn

answer letters from his constituents at

AS young lawyer he attracted the
attention of the court by his Craggy

would say in low tone to counsel, mo-

thumb Then, if counsel said yes, they
would slip out quietly and in an ex

turning later with from two to four eyes
closed and resume the trial

Mr.. Vance on shares or at the halves, he

developed into person criminally liable,

New York Yacht club to Marblehead,
Masa The gallant Constellation led the
entire fleet: She was designed by the late
Edward Burgess, and is without doubt
one OF the swiftest schooners of the first

the great race was the fact that the second
