him after his arrival there and he
purch ased several herds OF cattle.

him was lost. The authorities
were notified but after long and
unavailing search he was given up
as dead.
Several days ago NJ. D. Woodson

wretched plight. A physical
wreck and in rags, he recognized
Woodson's face but could not re.
call his name and insisted that his
