coach until q boid fellow climbed MP on the step
and grabbed bottle Of the wine that cheers

ready for the onslaught. for he had on hand
enough food to feed tho United States Army for
month. Expensive drinks and fragrant cigars
wero also in demand. but toward the end OF the
day, when luck was not 90 good, these luKuries
Woro somewhat neglected.
