correct your stupendous error of
last week or be made a party to
a charge of libel ” We knuckle,
and hasten to state we are in
wrong. Mr. O’Connor (out of

birds instead of one, as was
stated last week in the gun club
article.
And by the by the gun club has
called for a competitive shoot at
the club’s grounds Sunday after
noon at 3 o’clock. This will be
and official shoot —and the gun
artist who isn’t there don’t gee
in the score. What?
