Edwin Noble In "The Dog Lovers

bold enough to affirm that he owned
hounds which were better than those
possessed by his sovereign.
There was, however. one exception,
william st. Clair, who wagered his
head that his two favorite hounds,
Help and Hold, would kill the deer
before she crossed the Pentland brook.
Bruce accepted the challenge and wa
gered the forest Of Pentland moor
against Sir Williams head.

Mr. Moore said. was shown by the
fact that it was Immediately followed
by the proposed free list bill.
This measure, he declared, was

the industrial worker in every line OF
activity. I.ocalizng the effect of these
two measures, Mr. Moore proceeded to
show how great was the Importance OF
the agricultural as well as the indus

The entire industrial fabric OF the

transfer his market, the one in which
