night and found himself rather fuddled and his bed
very much mnddled and in consequence made
much noise about the latter matter; whereupon,
Alexandra and his minions fell upon Blake and
gave him a tremendous pounding and cutting,

his life was dispaired of. He revived, however,

saucers and tureens-and, in return, Jane visited
Ellen, and told her she would meet her in Algiers-

with his fists and the other with knife, and if
