protested and the widow allowed him
to 70 forth and hire Democratic IN

present so large a bill.
Robinson went on his mission. A
few hours later two undertakers ap-
neared at the house and the ensuing
argument drifted from business to
politics, and finally to f1sticuffs. and
the two men had to hunt up Robin

to settle the matter by arbitration.
