long list to whom summons had been
issued to appear and began calling the

until the name of R. M. Holland
was reached, when he announced

Thomas G. Mcclure, and then W. J.
Maize and F. NJ. McEiroy answered to
being present. Altogether there were

After a consultation with his deputies
the sheriff made the following state
ment: after callingthe list of summons
sent out and waiting considerable time
for responses, only twenty-three have
signifed their willingness to 20 to Home
stead. It would be useless to 60 there
with this small number of men. I
thank you all for coming here and ask
you to hold yourselves in readiness to
ansMer-any call / may. make on you for
assistance. I am going myself. Non9
Of those who appeared here are armed,
and have no arms to give you. I will
therefore not ask you to 70 along and
excuse you for this morning."
The twentv-three men who were
ready to gS to Homestead as deputies
are all prominent business and profess
gional men.
