a large number of settlers. The arch.
bishop secured the lands for the pur-
pose of locating settlers, an Irish coll
ony being established and most ofNthe
lands have passed to these settlerA.
There still remained, however, good
many acres not sold or only partially
paid for and on the plea that the arch
bishop had simply a contract to dis
pose of the lands as an agent, an at
tempt was made to prevent a transfer
of those other lands. The contention
of the archbishop is sustained and he
will receive all the lands under the sec
ond contract. Title to the lands has
been unsettled because of these suits
for good many years and this final
decision Of the matter will come as a
relief not only to the settlers on the
lands, but to all residents about Grace
Vile, where the bulk OF the lands are
located.

by one of the officials. This was no soon

the dose was repeated at the instance of
another official and another color
used. The boys are now wondering
what will be the next move in
the painting line. Another thing
that is bothering them, and that is the
signs that have been tackled up in front
