chased an interest in the farm he did not know as

and he paid IS said. $4,000 for the privilege OF
owning half interest in the horses and mares ana
their produce but did acquire an interest in the

he made the purchase. IL is not at all surprising
that he disposed of his share in the property at

likely that Mr. Croker is arranging to make long
