pranks after they were taken TO st. Glars
Vile. They tore the bed clothes into
shreds and reduced their bodily covering

stick and welted the boys, remedy that
should have been applied long before. The
wells of the boys when chastlsed were aw-
full. but they were not hurt. The newspa-
pers at the county seat should give the re
signed taller his Just dues. The pointers
