being made, which the clerk promised
to do.
Notwithstanding his promise, how.

gave out ON the following Sunday the
same words: IAN people that on earth
do dwell" whereupon the parsons tenn
per could hold out no longer and. put.
ting his head over the desk. he cried.
"D-n all people that ON earth do
dwell!"
This was in 80 loud a voice that sew
