HAZlNG rs TO BE

This fool practice of hazins should

Boys in high school at Cranston

They only broke bone OF two and
opened a long scalp wound, and up to
that time the sport of manning help

the victim is In danger of death from
the broken bones and burning which
he endured while attempting TO crawl
and squirm out from the inclined shaft
