beat the county out OF a cent, and that

This argument had Its effect On the

that the facts showed misuse OF the
county funds on Egan's part. The
county Collector has a reputation In

Blair was afflicted with the measels.
The disease settled in his eyes and
troubled him many years afterwards.
While not n member of any church,
he JhampiOned every cause looking to
the moral uplift and bettermeut OF man
and was great student OF the Bible.
He was known to have frequently re-
marked that he knew OF no more reason
for doubling the history OF Christ as
given In the Bible, than the history of
Caesar as found in other hooks. Short
ly before his death he remarked that
on looking back over the - years of
his life, he thought Providence had
dealt very kindly with him, that he
was willing TO go, and hoped 10 meet
his friends and dear ones hereafter.
His last moments were peaceful and he
seemed to the watchers at his bedside
like tired child dropping off TO sleep.

The rapid gains made by lambs han
