War touched Burlington lightly
today. but in peaceful way. Mr.. j.
n. Perry, representing the firm OF
Thomas & brewer OF. Galesburg, was
in Burlington buying some OF the fine
stock of Des Moines county under a
contract from the English army, says
the Burlington Gazette. On account
OF tie slippery and rough roads the
farmers hesitated to bring their
horses in for exhibition, as they were
afraid the animals might fall and be
married in some way to lower their
values Every horse that was offered,
however, was the subject OF long and
earnest debate between the buyer and
the owner The type of horses desired
seemed to be for animals ranging from
1850 to LOO pounds. The average
price paid was about 800.
