Saturday was set for final day to
raise the money and everything was
concentrated on the final effort to raise
the money But the enthusiasm failed
to pull the situation past the danger
mark, so the time was extended to
Tuesday evening, which is said to be
about the last date possible to make
arrangements.
The fund raised is about $4,000 To
date and two or three thousand more
is needed. 1t remains to see If At

The only thing such man remem-
