petition in the Wayne circuit court
to have a receiver appointed for the
Wayne Oil Company, company
which was organized in Wayne coun-
ty several years ago for the purpose

cites that he was employed by the

Their alleges that the company has but
three wells, is producing little or no

Essex, Hamilton, Niagara, Ontario.

county give Bruce plurality of 2,766,
and an estimate from Monroe county
credits Bruce with a lead of $500

leaves him with lead of 1921 with
eight counties still to be heard from.
The returns are coming in extremely
slow, and the count on the remainder
