Through the medium Of this paper, which have
had the honor to represent for over thirty y-five
years. wish to show my appreciation to those Of
my friends who have sent to me complimentary
letters on the paragraph wrote few weeks ago.
Indeed it does one good while passing through life
TO know that he has done. just little. that some

As far as our present knowledge is shown. we pass
through this world but once then let US do what
good we can. and let our friends be our judges.
