It is labelled sixty-two and half
pounds. Seven pounds OF II were broken
or hacked OF by relic lovers before II
got safely into the scientific clutches Of
the museum.
Great crowds Of people over the Alle-
gan claimed to have seen II fall, and
assert that II came with a rushing,
roaring noise like that unto distant
thunder. They say that II came down
almost perpendicularly. II gave u

which it passed. but possessed no lu-

Il fell, as Is attested by the fact that
the leaves and grass into which II fell
