E anted from Elgin by 'Charles H.

view, and C. Huffman and they

.. ing very active work for the state
' ticket ' -

speakers a large and enthusiastic
crowd. Fred G. Volk was very active
in the interest of the republican
ticket
So much enthusiasm was manifested
all along the line and the speakers
were compelled to speak longer than
their schedules provided, and it was
impossible to reach Norfolk in time
to hold the meeting scheduled for
5:45. The campaign party stopped
in Norfolk for supper and then made
a night drive to Madison for a meet
ing. " v "
