Being asked by a newspaper correspondent what he had to say, now that Governor Foster had furnished him the name of the man who informed him that he (Hoadly) had said that this nomination co3t him a large sum of money, the J udge answered: “I have nothing, to add to my correspondence wiih Mr. Foster. My object is sufficiently accomplished by the disclosure of the name of hi 3 informant." And he would say no more. ‘ ‘When this’ere Bill Lorimer said I was caught robbing Dr. Green’s hen-roost," said Mr. Roswell Smiley to the crowd silting round v the stove in the village grocery, “I jis swore I’d make him prove it." “Well, did youP” asked the little man on the cracker barrel. “Did I? You bet I did.” “And what ye going to do about it now?" The’ ain’t nothin’ to do about it. I said I'd mak£ him prove it, and! did."
