BUCKED A HARD GAME.

L. P. Adams and Ralph Davis of
Riverside went to Montpelier last
spring and took road contract on
which they estimated would take
several months to complete. They
took it on narrow margins of profit,
and thought that by doing some OF
the work themselves and employing
just a few pretty good men and
teams and all working diligently
they could come out with wages and
a small profit.
Early in August they finished the
job, drew the last of the money, de-
posted it in a bank at Montpelier
and drew Checks to pay all their
men and the material bills. Mr..
Adams and Mr.. Davis got home and
reported to their friends that every
thing came out about as they esti-
mated, and then-the bank failed.
Upwards of fifteen hundred dollars
worth of the checks were still out,
and now Davis and Adams are work
ing again to get the money to have
another pay day to discharge the
obligations to the men and others
whose checks did not get through
the bank before the failure.
