The line relating to sea lawyers was
insisted upon by Captain Jerry. "That'll

planned. The advertisement, with this
addition, being duly approved, the re-
CURED sc cents was inclosed, as was

journal requesting all answers to be

CESS, Orham, Mass. Then the envelope
was directed and the stamp affixed.

Is to pick out your wife and let us
