' ' Several of the residents on that ^ street insist that they smell a hog pen, that at night it is impossible for them to sit on their piazza. Mr. 0 Harris has made a thorough search r for the offending hog pen, but has - failed to find it. We are of the ? opinion that the offensive oder of r which these people complain comes V from the hollow leading back of Pal' mer's row and Dr. H. K. Smith and 8 Mr. C. H. Peake's residences.
