reason TO regret that he was so hoporod.
He lived with his aged mother and five
children and supported them while pay
ing his own expenses and obtaining his
education. He rs well qualified for the
position TO which his friends now seek
TO advance him, Some will say TO
continue man in Office. as they do in
