mittee, approaching Ezekiel with a
grave bow, said: 'Mr. Hopkins, it
is the desire of the good people OF
Kentucky that you shall, in recogni-
ton of your valor and merit, be pre-
sented with this watch, which they
trust will ever remind you Of their
undying friendship" Without the

attorney of this place, has announced
his candidacy for governor Of Ken

Among the "principles" for which

4O-horsepower automobile, two hats
each season and half ton of chew

my account, but on account OF the
dear people, I await my inaugural. "

lived, would be 80 years of age.
This noble couple joined them
