favor and three against granting the

that was reached when the case vas
considered at a special meeting held

claim was that the cattle had been
turned over 10 him In part payment
of money due him from the Wilson's.
He maintains that the Wilson's are
still indebted to him. Citizens and
officials In large number at Las

granted. The opposition came not
