after the EngiIshman. This caused an |
other outDHrst of cheers. When Ha- |
Zael made his previous record of 600 /

He carried this to kowell, but he paid
little attention to the gift. Rowell com /

Roweli's hacker, gave up the contest at /

from which his man had been suffering
for two days, and wanted to make an
