toxicating drinks could be obtained any conditions
The bartendors had closed their laid all their
plans for having real and much needed day OF repose
Some of them had not known such since they
were very small lads just learning beverages
and dextrously pour mixed drinks goblet gobc,
without wasting a drop OF the liquor Whatever the
projectors OF the shops may have thought the
