them with inhcting his various injuries.
The Court saw the injuries, but could
not understand the compla.nants ex-

who were privileged TO kiss the bride
When he saw tn hride's brother Jacob
hand her dowry 200 he thrilled
with Joy, considering that 8 per cent. OF
the dowry was as good as In his pos.
