be deduced from al incident that &C.
Cured some time before the escape Of
two prisoners from the Riverside pani-

The best known MAJ of the pair, Paddy
McGraw, has a married sister living in

to liberty DER the prison walls She
dreamed II night that her brother had
made his escape much in the same way
that it actually occurred.
She told several neighbors about it the
next day, who can vouch for the ac-

had the sympathy of a sister for a
brother, when she awoke to the reality
she had to content herself with the
knowledge that Paddy's checkered ca

and that while they knew where he WAS
they also knew he was away from thu
reach of all evil.

he relate, is as follows:

couldn't talk; but he'd wag his head if
he wanted to pass, and his eye stood
him in good stead when it came to any

and l don't suppose VIC would have
killed him if we hadn't caught him one

and pulling out an extra ace from one of

E%nyland's Fruits in the Middle Ages

1t is Il curious fact that in the Middle
Ages England was horticulturally much
behind the continent of Europe. In
Chaucer's time the English larder was
very measerly supplied with vegetables,
and butindiffcrently with fruits. Onions,
leeks, n~cttles, peas and mustard We're the
only articles that then figured in the
short catalogue of English vegetable
supplies. There is no trace of the exist
ence of cabbage III England at this
period. In the contemporary accounts
Of orchards there is no allusion to plums,
