coincidence of their may friends.
A PRESENT WORTH RECEIVING
On Saturday last we were presented
with a fine fat lamb, by Master John
Thornton, of Cato. Our heart is full
of thanks for the handsome and liberal
donation, and we hardly know how to
find words to express our obligations to
our young friend, who though not yet
voter, has thus early in life, manifest
ed such deep interest in the cause of
Democracy and its suppo ters. He is
the youngest son of Michaei Thornton,
one OF the most prosperous and liberal
farmers in the county, and those who
know the father will at once exclaim
that John, in point of honesty and
kindness. "is chip of the old block. y
a real live, fat lamb sent to the PILOT.
Think of it, ye starving printers in
other places, and move straight way to
Manitowoc.
