Mount Lebanon, Palestine, to 60 to his
brother Hessin, in Pineville, KY. Thu

Mount Lebanon was a better guardian
and ordered him deported.
The cousin came on from Pineville. He
offered to put up a bond of 5000 that the
boy would not be a public charge, and ex-
planned that IL deported the lad would be
sent first to Rio Janiero, as he had come
that way. The commissioners attention
had been called TO the boy because the
youngster wanted to beat a man who Of
Tered him a cigarette on the island. The
boy explained that the Drus religion, in
