O'Brien of Scotland wunst an King Eddard vas tn Predlitory welth of Ingland which Rep a lickin' him every time they met. Wunst when Robert Brops was a Fugitif he took Refuge in a Cave an he seZ to hisself I'm a goin' to quit: I'm all In. I'm goin' to l France an start Tn Commoner'
 While he was thinking about this Des- prit an Disgracefle course he NOtised !! a Spider who had jist finished a Web i an was lookin at it with tn Pride of | a Arkitect. Mister Broos who had it | in fer anybody at Suckseeds tore tn | Web Down. Tn Spider Made no Re | ply an went ahed Bildin' Anuthern | This went on till tn Spider had spun l tn tooth Web. Then Mister Broos he | sez, I'm glad I Come to this here | Skool. I got a Pinter I'm goin' out | an git Anuther Nommynashun an run | agin King Eddard Agin.' That time | Mister BroOs he won. He was In nogerated President of Scotland"
