passed the note to the member sitting next

So he took it to the speaker with the in
formation that the note had beer freely
passed around among the members. and
that none could read the last sentence.
The speaker took his note. scanned it with
caro-. and then with a twinkle in his eye
and Il peculiar light in his face. Uncle Joe
