Mrs. Caroline Bartlett Crane
seems to be that character OF
person who can discover in a
cursory examination that a city
has failed in its civic duty. with
out waiting to inquire why this
is so. She pursues too much the

list who discovers hades within
six inches OF the surface OF the
town in which he has landed a
few days before.
