two courses, each not consisting Of
more than two sorts Of victuals, either
flesh or fish, with the common sorts Of
pottage, and inexpensive sauce. On
named feast days three courses were
allowed.

food was brought him the crows de-
scended upon it, and he had scarcely
strength to defend it. BY good acting
he managed to capture one Of the
crows. TO pluck it alive was the OBJ

Kipling and Sir Edward Buck watched

this monkey tossed the crow into the
