The (handle measured 4ft., including the head. By inserting this you will greatly oblige.—We are, etc., H.'McCUNE, President. JAS. AGGERS. W. S. FAGAN. The 561b. weight used at the sports was weighed in our presence, and found correct, with chain handle be-1 ing 2ft. 7in. overall. —W. S. Fagan, T. B. O'Connor.
