was chilled to the marrow,
end shivers OF disgust and discomfort ran
through the frames Of the unlueky man VINO
vas compelled to pedestriani2e to any ex-
tent. A sleet began to fall yesterday even
irg, which turned into g snow last
! n,eht, and about an inch of the beautiful
had fallen and melted into a disagreeable
lush.
