sixty-must answer the first call,

The board and posted July 81, and
The men called must appear on the
day as shown at the head of the
lists. Examination bill begin Mon
day morning. August 9th, and
continue each day of the 9TH and

The planters are looking after
the interest of their tenants and
will doubtless see that all whose
names are on the lists will appear
as ordered.

It would be working a great hard
