he took bird cage and hung the cock
inside, then sent word to his friends
that he had curiosity, just received

because we were not prompt TO inderse
all the Information they offered about
gambling, without first investigating q
little. That the Investigation did not
more fully corroborate their assertions,
was no fault OF ours. We found no fault
with them for knowing what they did.
But, when our esteemed contemporary
suggests that we are trying to get on
''both sides" of this question, we wish it
would be more explicit. Ifit means on
both the inside ond outside, it is wrong.
