such way. Send it up this way and you
shall have our thanks.
We most respectfully suggest that

be to devote lot in RoSemont Gene

some regard for the fitness OF things.

sharp bargain. He traded the chick
ems for smaller ones, and got boot.
As we said the color of chicken gave
him away-to the police.

the audiences were small. He preach

morning, and convinced his congrega-
