apart. In his letter LaMott recalls
appreciatively the fact that when
he left camp, Jimmy Boyd emptied
his own cartridge belt and gun,
giving LaMotte all his ammuni-
ton.
LaMott inquired regarding Jack
Mail and Tommy Cushion and
other old timers, and mentions the
fact that days such as the hardy
pioneers in this country enjoyed
fifty years ago will never be lived
again in this country. He is glad
that he was among those who
were here when the country was
new.
Seeing the name of Jimmy Boyd
in a newspaper was what prompt
ed LaMott to write and renew the
old acquaintance. He is living
with a marriad daughter, his wife
having died in 1889. He has three
children, ten grand children and
two great-grand-children

Bat more than $4,000 times today was

donors as one with which the mighty
Casey once struck out.
It was presented at a testimonial

1T is real pleasure to join with
those who will be congratulating you
upon the completion of half century
on the American stage. All praise to
one who has upheld its traditions and
contributed so richly to clean and
wholesome entertainment. My best

CAMDEN, N. j., october 22.-More
than 500 persons, many of them girls
and young women, were at liberty to-
day under nominal cash bail as re-
suit of preliminary hearings after a
series of raids on Camden County road
houses early Sunday morning. The
proprietorS of the seven places raided
were freed under 81 900 bail each, pend
ing further action by County Prosecutor
Ethan WeScott.
The rails were conducted by the en-
tire staff of county detectives and so
State troopers amid scenes of confusion.
To prevent a tip-off the resorts were
surrounded and the raids started few
minutes after midnight The roundup
was ordered because of defiance OF a
recent order that Toadhouses close at
midnight.
Motor buSSes were chartered by the
raiding officers to carry the merry
makers to the courthouse Where three
justices of the peace awaited their ar
rival. The defendants were herded into
three rooms and for nearly four hours
the justices held hearings and fixed
bail. All proprietorS of roadhouSeS were
held in 81 900 bail, while patrons were
released after posting $40 in some in
stances and S25 in others.
officers said that liquor had been
found in all places except one and that
In three instances slot machines were
confiScated.
Prosecutor Wescott said today his
future action would depend upon the
roadhouse proprietors. He promised to
make things uncomfortable" if they
persisted in defying thegclosing law.
