in the wall as an air hole, and into this Mr..
Cave started. lie got about half way
through and then stuck. No amount of
wiggling or grunting could get him any
further in lie then thought he would re-
treat. but alas the hole had gradually
closed, or he had suddenly increased in size
fast. lie then tried his lungs,
but his head being under the
building no one heard him. lie re-
manned there three-quarters Of an
hour and was finally discovered by couple
of ladies coming to Sunday-school, who
were somewhat surprised at seeing couple
Of feet projecting through the wall. After
timid inspection they took in the situa-
