It seems that Mr. Zimmer purchased an auto- mobile from C. M. Hart, of Fort Meade, making a payment of $300, Hart retaining ownership of the ma- chine until the balance, some $1,400, should be paid. Zimmer drove the machine out of the State, which con- stituteg a legal offense, hence hig ar- rest.

As to the amount of team hire the recordg are at the city hall, not in Scandinavia. As to the favoreq on the price of the clay per cubie yard given will explain that. The teams were at work at 6:30 or before ang we found it much to have all the teams from always on to their “yob.” As to free livery, I always have heen for tunate enough to have means to pay my way without any foreign assist- ance, except one free ride that Mr. Lange gave me when he wanted to contract a team on the city. For the information of all I will say Mr. Davis, the street foreman, digq all the hiring of the teams and the price that the clay cost the city I think fully justifieq hig for the benefit of the taxpayers, as they hauled one and one- tourlh cubie yards of clay at a load. Thanking wisdom Mr. Smith for his kindness, I shall continue on my journey, sceking health ang recreation for my invalid wife, which occupies about all my time, not having time to throw stones at all the little fice that bark at me.
