his minor purchases in his hand bag

some sacks in the wagon. Upon his
arrival he missed the bag. He there

hand bag. A few days ago Mr.. A. G.

one and that it was at his garage in
Ocala, and that the three pounds of
butter was on ice; whereupon Mr..
Flanagan made haste to go to Ocala
and claim his property. 1t is almost
impossible to lose anything around
