arrested yesterday in the last stages of
intoxication and locked in the Third

was found taking up the whole sidewalk.
and for safetys sake was again locked
up.
His drunk had been SO long and severe
that after few hours he began to plead
for drink. and his condition showed
him bordering on collapse. He was SO
nervous that he could not control HIM
self.
The ambulance was sent for and he
was treated. He was sad spectacle
