DOnaQhey in the Bay

Governor Donaghey went up to
Biggers last MonSay evening and to
Reyno the next morning where he
addressed large audiences. 1t is
said that he spoke to one of the lar
gest crowds ever assembled in Big
gers and that he captured his audi
ence almost to man. The next
morning he went up to Reyno and
made a speech to the people there.
Owing to the fact that few knew
that he would be there the crowd
was not so large as that at Biggers,
but it is said that what they lacked
in numbers they made up in enthu-
siasm. Several from that place ac-
companied the governor here and
listened to his speech in the after
noon.
