ing some cattle ties taken from his
barn, and also a statement concern

that Almer Carlson did not intend
to steal any cattle ties from him:
that he (Johnson) bought the farm

johnson might have the use of the

Carlson went and got the ties one
night and turned the cattle out in

such a way of getting property.
Furthermore, he did not come to

some new ties. The correspondent
