small revenue to Mr.. Raymond until be

for uss. The whole of the foundation
was first thoroughly repaired and then
covered with q good substantial floor and
rooted over, so that while it is being
made of use as an attractive resort, the
work is protected from the elements and
will be ready when required Hardly any
one has any doubt of MIR. Ray mond's in
tention to rebuild on the old location,
and IL is generally thought that the work
will not be delayed much longer than
another season.
