packed, and, according to the New Mil

the platform 'pandemonium broke
loose" There were highly eulogistic
speeches made by three Reverends, and
other local takers, and very modest
and well-worded response by Col. Pratt,
who, referring to the much mooted ques-
ton of his residence during the cam.
paign, declared that, there is where his
mother gave him birth, here he had
spent his boyhood, and here would spend
his life, and sometime his body would
here be laid to rest beside that of his
