and the fire company generally wero
Carnival given under their auspices. He

fact that the whole amount Of the sub
scriptions guaranteed by then, to the.
Hatch-Adams Company was not raised,
several of the subscribers FILLING in their
promised donations. The sum lacking was
ABDUCTED by the Carnival Company from
the percentage of the gross receipts Of
fered by them to the fire department
and the balance handed over 70 the lat
