tigation that not only we're sppoiut-

questions we're also sold, at good,
round sum, to those who were desirous
of securing certificates of fitness as

light by the refusal Of one OF the ap-

from the East-to pay the stipulated
price for her place, whereupOn suit was
brought to recover the fee, or bri5e 4,
