that was, that the game of Roue et Noir, was tiot
withio the meaning of the Statue, to deem it an
(141%0'0' gime. This he urged with consider-
able coo6dence ; not that he wished it to go
abrnatl to the Public that the game of Runge et
Noir might be set tip and play.'rl wit t impunity as
a 'hiwfal game ; so tar from that, he wished all
