same faith I alwaya charged It up to profit

that he could get mad enough to havo a fight
with anybody, bnt he waa not on good ternu
withe neighboring darkey, and to one Satur
day when they both camo from town taking
a drink or two of redeye they undertook to
settle tho old fond and Bob killed him.
woe a willing fight and a bod case all round
and Bob got two yean and would havo had

historicalsummary of organised labor In England,
It wu not until the beginning of tho eighteenth
century that trades unions began to bo organised
for mutual aid and protection, but as long age as
Edward L of England, peasants sought by united
action to alleviate in some particular the hardship
of their lot. Tho watchmakers' society or London
was one of the few trades unions existing In 1703,
bnt they were all equally Illegal and abhorrent to
iheeentlmentof the ruling claaaos, their mtmbcre
having no power oe Influence in the state. Baa-

sorts of sgilatlone for the relief of labor were con
ducted and remedies proposed. Naturally trades
unions availed themselves or tho eltuatloo to pro

legal and more satisfactory tooting. The act of

“The bravest are tho tondenst,” and as a
