In the grating at the side OF tho plat

that there was no other man with SIR

man at that time that caused the car
mon to look at him, and they both say
that they cannot be mistaken.
The sheriff accounts for his selecting
the name Joe by tho fact that he knew

described Joe TO the sheriff and the
description tailed with that of Joe ut
