money when horse-swappers
strike town and so our tax col
lector laid in his complaints.
Rather than pay the tax neces
sary for this line of business they
left town and took their abode
just a short distance out of town
in the direction of the ice factory.
Some others,, not Gypsies, did the
same way to avoid the tax.
The tax for a gang of horse
swappers as these are taxed ten
dollars, which gives them the
privilege for one year. By this
tax ourback lots are. very often
riuc;'A Ox a crowd not to be de
sired, though very often crowds
do not pay their taxes as they
can not avail themselves of this
trade any more during this year
as they never turn back.
