camp for four years. J. W. HILL.
We cheeriulIy undertake TO comply
with the request contained in Elder
Tanners letter. This pleasure Is en-
HANGED because II involves the per-
Torrance Of duty-the exposure OF
an unconsclonablo hypocrite. The
task is one Of easy perform ance, the
subject being unusually vulnerable.
