The greater DOT ton of the garrison, 5000 men, how ever, evacuated the city in the morning after 49 hours of fighting and retreated to Tula, several miles away, where they were again defeated by the constitu- tionalists. They then fled into the hills. The attacking constitutionalists are reported as numbering about 5000.

One of the most important of
the provisions is that any contract
or sale of lands, or any interest
in or concerning land, must be
evidenced by a signed writing.
This is the provision that
requires that u contract with
reference to standing timber be
in writing for it is with reference
to realty. So. too, contracts to
buy land, Or for mineral rights
are within this provision and
must be in wriJiug, 1t is to be
noticed that if the contract calls
for the delivery Of tim mber or Of
coal from the lands of the owner
by the owner. that is not within
this provision. sl.lce he himself is
to cut or pihc j thus severing it
from the land SO that il loses it's
character as rea!ly. But if he
sells coal cI OIL lis il lies beneath
his farm the contract must be in
writing. The same applies to all
leases. except sh~grt tara leases,
which are excepted i'll most of
the states.
or II a contract is not 20 be
performed within a year from
the making thereof it must be
evidenced by writing to be en-.
forceable. This applies only to
contracts which cannot be per.
formed within a year. Thus
leases for u Ner7od of over 4 year
from the dat> when they are
made, contracts to work for over
a wear. etc. must be in writing.
But If you agree to support Sam
Allison for the rest of his life. |
that contract is not within the
statute for though, Sam is out
twenty years old and in good
he a]th he may die within year
and thus the contract be per-

Whether as individuals or as COM

apparent to - others. When these
blemishes are pointed out to us by
well meaning friends they are often

should always be recounted by pos

diced opinion, leaving no probability
of faulty view Of distorted lenses.
For instance, a write of fiction CD in

wonderfully-a djectived vituperation.

cled men, tanned by fatherhood into

hearted, evil-mnded married women
equally quick with their ISLANDERS and
their charities. Here was the type
of obtuse, self-centered, inbred rural
community that no amount of cul-
ture can polish deeper than the skin;
the one type OF stock that, trans
planted so years to smooth city paw,

world-famous art treasures and soft
silken luxuries, would still be chew
ing its cud of gossip or tobacco, and
haggling over its purchase OF a post

liberty and purity above all earthly
things, and history fails not to our
