just want to say few words
to Bro Horace of Southwest Tisho-
mingo about stocklaw. No, we
have not got it and not going to
have it if we can help ourselves
and we have so far. You say the
law will protect us from night rid
ing. 1t never did until SO many
lives were lost, people beat up scan
dalous and still it is not stopped
but going on in different parts OF
the states. Don't misunderstood
me and take me to be one among
the night riders for | am a God
fearing man and am one that
want to live and let live. You say
the man is already mean. Some of
them are and some are not, but

law will protect him. Now what

you are taking your rest and Sleep

turns out your cows, let's them in
his corn field, then puts them up
and you, have to pay 50cts or 81
head to get them back? Then
what and how in the name Of God
can the law protect you? Say you
had 20 head and it cost 5Octs each
to get them back. There is $40
you have spent on your own cat
tie. All right you have him ar
rested for turning your cattle out
and go to trial You know and

out and he will swear that he did
not. His evidence is as good as
yours, 50 what are you going 10
do! Give mean man chance
and the law will protect him. Say,
Bro Horace a man here wants
COW and said he would give you
$40 for yours if sac gave l-3 gals.
