Sez Arville, "If our nation can countenance such doin's as I have spoke of, the man-killin' and brute-makin', all day Sundays, and not only permit it, but go into pardnership with it, and take part of the pay if it can do this Sundays, year after year, without bein' ashamed before the other nations, I guess it will stand it to have the Fair open."
