Stran 115 - And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
Stran 82 - New and strange things seldom fail to make strong impressions, and are therefore frequently over-rated ; so that lest I should, never again see my friends in England to inform them verbally of this most beautiful and immensely grand tree, I shall here state the dimensions of the largest I could find among several that had been blown down by the wind.

Stran 111 - ... expression here.

Stran 50 - Huffman, and the heirs of the Hill estate. At the present time I am negotiating for a station in Livermore Valley, Alameda County, and expect to bring the matter to a successful conclusion. And now briefly to recapitulate the foregoing suggestions, I will state them as follows: 1. That Section 384 of the Penal Code should be so amended as to fix the maximum penalty at one thousand dollars, or one year's imprisonment, or by both such fine and imprisonment. 2. That a law should be enacted having the...
