hr I reckon recites L that means theres one more robber glad tho they have because It once in tl ii I hundred times that the dogs make good For lor some somo reason or oth other r though the old belief that the re all right wont b I shaken of err Ive never been able to figure o out t why I they keep on tr trying ing them According to te m my mind Toms Cabin Is for the and I if it as I y theres another count to be added to the Indictment against the poor old play and dear knows crimes enough have be been n committed In Its name a as It Is let alone chalking UJ ua any a it It looks like a cinch when Eliza ElIm makEs her ber break for the Ohio and you hear a growl rowl and a couple of tram from the wings but even If the playwright and the stage stase manager interfere there be any more believe In the dugs dogs than do no now You askan ask any pun the crossroads and hell tell yoU sure as shooting that blood hounds are the thc r real al thing To prove proc It hell heU ask you ou if the they ace ule them before the war to run down slaves and that settles It with him If you ou ask hint him how he knows the they did hell cite Uncle Toms Cabin nine times out ot of ten And It was only last summer that he see the show too Now theres no denying dening that they did use hounds to track runaways s In ante helium t a although not to the extent h l hb that is generally ia believed ft vS even e by well Informed When they had them for t at purpose the they use uso them for anything else The They were very CarefuL what they fed them to keep their noses clean and sharp so that when they got on the trail ot a man they could hold bold It A man like an animal you know and pretty definitely that theres mighty might little differ nce between the scent Of t tw men If a docs
