The arrivals there reached a total of :'l6

amount of wheat on hand at Russian

at !6l2 to 96Ss, a sixteenth lower to like

wanted to stay in CofaX Courthouse for the trial. and
it seemed reasonably certain that ride rail would

Never had circus the station brought such
numbers. In buggies, horseback, and afoot they
swarmed in from the countryside. Warren looked from
his window, after night of sound slurnber and saw
more than hundred gathered round the Jail,
