who defended Holland IN the recent

there with dollar in his pocket in the
morning drink all day, land after paying
fer every drink, he can still have the
dollar he bsgsn wish. Mr.. MAksmson
explains Il in this way: Take al
American dollar and start in and take
drink on che Texan side Of the line,
and you'll receive as change a Mexican
dollar. Cross the boundary into what
il known as Nusvo Laredo, take drink
