!3X OF CHRONICLES Chap. 4.
KTOW it came to pass that the
* ’’ people of the city of Skag
y, which being translated signifies
icked wind,” having taken counsel
;he carpet-baggers, and builded stores
id houses upon the lots to which they
id no title, did conduct themselves in
manner that indicated ownership of
■ i.he earth. Whereat the men of the
irpet-bags did rejoice greatly, for they
' iw an exceeding great Graft in imme
iate prospect. And they thereupon
rganized a gang, under the leadership
fa fellow of the tribe of Smith, whose
rna ne was “Sapy.”
I
!
I ihey then proceeded to levy tribute
ipon unsuspecting pilgrims, who were
passing to the Northland in greatly in
ireasing numbers. And they did gath
er in the shekel? by the handfuls and
JsuShels. No longer did they feed upon
jdoughnuts; but champagne and oysters
{were their daily portion. And the fame
of Smith spread abroad in the land, and
many choice spirits were daily added to
gang, for the harvest was abundant
and the reapers were busy
<4 dut when those who feared God, and
regarded man, began to kick and to
say; “Behold this thing has gone far
\
enough, yea, much too far already. It
is time the Vigilantes took a hand.’’
The carpet-baggers answered with one
accord; “It is not meet or lawful to
raise hand or voice against the law—lo!
is not this man “Soapy” an officer of
Uncle Sam? Therefore-die can do no
wrong. ’ ’ And the carpet-baggers wax
ed -bolder day by day.
how Deit, wnen patience did cease to
be a virtue, the men who regarded that
which is right, did rise in their might.
And in the space of one hour—less fif
ty-seven minutes—the carpet-baggers
(lid flee to 'the mountains. ' Nor was
hide or hair of them seen in that region,
evfen unto this day. But “Soapy,”
their leader, lay dead ‘in the harness.
