over, who have tic sleep over here. This
is very much Of an Inconvenience, to the
married men especially, for they cannot
ind houses to rent At the present time
there arc only about four houses in the

eSsy reach OF the sheds.

to find houses over here somewhere. and
the rcal-estate agents are doing every
Thing possible to accommodates them.
