Marshal Robertson informs us that
we did the new corporation mules an
Injustice. last week, when we said that
they cost only $425. The price paid
for them in Memphis was 1929, to
which the freight, 100 is to be added
making the cost OF the pair, laid down,
S542 90. They are well worth the
money. The Cumberland Telephone Co
has a pair of iron gray mules now at
work in the citv which are almost as
large as the city mules. They are GER

could make an army wagon spit the
mud easy.
