Boone County Recorder . that there wasa plan on foot to rob me Do not startgentlemen, for what I tell you is true.And for that reason 1 set off thus alone, but my horse has met with a sad mis-hap, and I fear that the robbers, who, I think, are yet at Nogent may over-take me Now, if you are going directlyto Chaumont perhaps you would bewilling to take my package in yourcharge and deliver it to M. Augient athis office. Anyone there will tell yonwhere it is, then, if I am overhauled, the robbers will find nothing, and, ofcourse, you will not be suspected. Ifyou shall thus accommodate me youshall be suitably rewarded. What sayyou, gentlemen?

Then I thank yon most heartily, said Lafont and as he spoke he took aclosely-sealed packet from his bosomand handed it over. In this, he said, there are valuable papers, and I trustyou will use all discretion in their care.Now the robbers may overhaul me assoon as they like. After some further directions
