She re members him buying a car-load of salt, for which his brothers laughed at him. Her father re plied that our Southern ports would be blockaded and he esti mated it would take some five years for the North to conquer the South, so he did not intend his family to suffer.

It seems to me that the appointment of a constable or spy should be left entitely with the Grand J-ury and the Petit Jurors as they are from all patts of the county and know better what we need than. a few Imn in O9wn, If we 16ave this matter with the towns it will be hard lines, for there are getting to be a lot of towns in the lower part of the county and probably they will all want .spies' and when they get spies Pumpkintown will also want a spy- and- there are a lot of other little towns in this' up country that after awhile would want spies, and tlhen I am afraid we will have more' spies .than taN money, so I think the ap p6intmeit of spies should be Coid6red.by all- the .taxpayers of the c6uity -bv recommended by a' m'ajority of the Grandlan7d petit jurors With best wishes to all, I.am, yous very truly, T...TR TOw,N.
