Hill, who had charge of the local “board of trade” here, accormpanied by Leslie Clark, one of the regular patrons who is said to have been stung for a few hundred dollars, and attorneys Parkison and Dunlap went to Lafayette Tuesday afternoon to see what the chances were of getting anything from the head concern there.
