was the member of Parliament from the |
city of Bristol, England; Mr.. Cossham was
| from the same city, and 30 were several |
others of the party. On resching the SPOT /
upon the hill where the alarm was given, |
1t was sscertsined that one of the company |

house who was originally from Bristol.
She had oceans of sweet milk, all nice and
cresmy, in shining tin pans. The old lady,

the house and dairy was promptly ex-
tended TO sll, and cup after cup of
the delicious lacteal was swallowed by them.
Captain Judkins drank rather too deep,
and became sick ct the stomach. Sir Nor

As the muni6cent party left, ventured I
TO advance and crave cup OF milk. "My
good woman" l said, "those gentlemen

here is thy reward She gave me the
milk. handed her q half dollar green
back. The next moment Towser was at :

half way down the embanbment. Some
body laughed. It was not am sure, Sir
Morton.
