A history which will doubtleee make inter esting reading matter. I am personally acquainted with Mr. Ballew and know every mem ber of his large and interesting family. Individually I like him and have nothing but feelings of respect and esteem for them. As to his business, the one which has gotten him into trouble—why that s different. My opinion all along has been that A. W. Ballew had as much right to half that Lucy Burrell pension, as old Lucy had to the balance—and that neither of them had any right to one cent of it. Why should the people, the hon est toiling masses, North, South, East and West be taxed to put pension money, “patriot reward” in the pockets of such people as Lucy Burrell, old Sam Seay and others of that stump who dwell in ■ this community? *•* And what exists in this com munity I d<xrp fl.'urishe in large number of communities in the United States.
