outsider to Iocat In Vermont an vail
demself of de mighty etiee OF suehlaws
an nudder ting it right in line wld' an
! would greatly reduce expense OF pup
Lefty wot ben SO highly recommend by
our Gunner
Nuddcr ting | seen wot interes me
an look somebody goin here sumpln
drop fore long, was when Guvner Hart.
ness 90 into legislator an say Who'll
lot Of tin to de boys, mong which he
| lowed Stod Bates know he's job, an he
hard workin felly an chase roun all

TO, Stod kno eyrything bout road make,
but lack jus one ting to max him top
nocher as road builder an de biggist
highwayman in de state, an dat one
ting he lack Is a co.ordnstor. Now
free to comics Gunner got one on me.
Wot de devil you speck dat big ting
is, wot Stod aint got hole of YETI
Well anyway every body know two
tings at leas, one of which IL, dat Guv'
ner Hartness be big inventor an is de
fadder Of Who'll lot of patunks which
of course have lot of high fangle mans,
J which de rank and file don't kno wot
dey mean or wot dey be used for. An
dc odder big ting eyry body kno is
dat Stod ben so dam busy buildin
de bess roads in New England for de
lass eight or ten year dat she amt
probly keep hisself posted on all de
Guvners patunks, and probly dis CO.
ordinator is sumpin Gunner have In
vent to make roads wild an Stod ben
, gitin long widout it.
Now Gunner tell de boys she want
TO keep Stod onto he's job for she kno
so much an is such good road man,
but at sam tam she going point mud
der man for Stod's place; man wot can
use co-ordinator an at sam tam use
Stod too.
Now / amt kno bout dat; ] tink
smell birthstone all roun de state.

, stan for nudder man to step in an use
one dem ting on him in dis road game
! An, nudder ting I'm bet Stod got good
fren nufT in legislature so Gunner
can't get one dem co-ordinator used
o on highway for mex two year unles.
Stod Bates be de man pointed to usc
I dat ting
De Gunner say she amt goin tC
eroun her ak, which indicates one o.
!. two things, elder she tink il have raEol
edge already, or else she going u.s.
