was not assigned. II. G. Berry, Demo-
crat. gauger, on September 20 had his
assignment revoked, and Franklin 7.
Thayer, Republican, a Union soldier,
was assigned as gauger by the commits
sioner in his place.
"On September 20 Judge Jackson, OF

eously described as a gauger enjoined
me from assigning any one to Buffers

pended Butler and Berry from Office for

which has several million dollars worth
OF whiskey in bond, cannot be supplied
with gaugers to withdraw goods.

The distlllery had not been running
