the tax highly objectionable to _a large

It was -iewed by them,as a - species of
'compulsory insurance and that in
most cases the c ainaties recovered far
exceeded the loss sustained offering
a premium for negligence in allowing
sheep to run:at large. They considered
that . each farmer Should be allowed to

rights. There :is, threfore, a door left
open for further negotiation ; but the
