moved with her parents to Knox
vile. ILL.,. and there she resided the

ed with two children, both of whom
are living Mrs. Florence v. Moore.

company organized in Pueblo.
About 81 800 of the $4,000 guaran-
teed by the various towns along the
route. had been paid over to X. w.
Patterson. treasurer of the original
company. and this amount was
transferred to the new treasurer,
w. o. Bourne. who is now located
in Pueblo. The report that Pueblo
had paid all of the apportionment
assigned to that city. $1,000 is a
mistake. only $3.50 of that city's
