it at 1 or more according to the at tachment it has made to the family he has furnished several billys as mascots for toronto organizations but when they take on this dignified position their value jumps with leaps and bounds as billy becomes part of the organization or club the goats shipped to northern ontario were placed in small crates and sent by express about 50 have been shipped in this
