1t occurred when Governor Morrill,

Aliens applications We're refused a
number of times, because II there was
one thing above all others which Nor
rill disliked 1t was to issue passes The
governor came down TO his office In n
somewhat brusque frame of mind that
day. Those familiar with the storm
signals quietly backed off and waited
for an explosion. 1t came. One of the
first letters opened was from Camp
Meeting John Allen requesting pass
for self and wife" The secretary
approached his chief with some hesita- |
ton.
Here is another letter from Mr.. AL !
len asking for pass" he said and laid |
the missive gingerly on the governors |
desk.
The governor read 1t through and
blazed away for few minutes; then.
tossing the letter to the astonished
secretary, he said, Make 1t out.9 "a
The young man retired and began to
Ill In the various blank lines, but when
ie came on what account" the pass
was issued he was puzzled and ven
ured to seek information.
"On what account, GOVERNOR" he
lsked.
The chief looked irately over his
pectacles.
Account, account? Account of -
ersistence Be sure to put 1t In. too"

assed out, "These Methodist parsons
