Mareli 30. 1!>20. As close friends and neighbors of Mr. Midler Me Elroy, who is ;i candidate for Tax Receiver of our county, we wish to make the fol lowing statement of facts: We do not make this statement for the purpose of sympathy, hut to counteract the impression some entertain, who do not know Mr. Me Elroy, and that is, that he is a stout man physically, with nothing to prevent him from manual labor. The truth of the matter is, that lie has suffered for years with an. incurable leg, brought on from a severe attack of typhoid fever, which disqualifies him from hard labor and utterly. prevents him from manual labor. Anyone seeing the terrible con dition of this limb would wonder how lie gets about at all. We also know that if it were not for this unavoidable condition that lie would not offer for office under any circumstances, although well qualified to fill any county position Wo simply do this to.justify Mr. Me Elroy and set him right with those not knowing his real condi tion and further know ing him to he worthy and competent in every respect, the confidence and sup port of our people.
