Yesterday afternoon shortly after

CRY shouts and the sound OF scuf

Landlord Mccarthy and Boarder Nc

the board was getting decidedly the
worst Of the deal
Mccarthy the border had called at
the room OF a fellow-boarder and dur

pass out some decidedly uncompli-

landlord happened 10 be in an adjoin-

conversation decided that such talk
