ID. About their contract Perhaps
they did not carry it out to the letter,
but why make this cry against Tregre
Bros when you can find SO much to say
of others? Do they live up to their
contract? Oh no: You know they do
not Again I'll ask you, kind Editor.
will you kick at road contractor when
so much can be said of our officers?
Great Guns! what mistake you are
driven INTO. There is enough matter
over across your way of the river to
keep your side busy reading.
Keep abreast of time. dear friend, and
be sure the road men will try to follow
suit, but like all editors OF great jour
nails, please say all while you are say
ing. There is ferry run by your son.
Does he live up to every specification. in
his contract? You know he does not.
And had it not been for one of the
Tregre Boys he would long have been
where the political AK might have sent
him. But Tregres are not like those
citizens who only look for the spoils OF
the Office, they are, in my estimation
men who are to friend like ivy is tc
the wall, both together stand or together
fall. They have now left for Ascension
parish ON Cottage Farm which they are
working on shares. and think st. join
