guests, and they as reluctantly had to
return home and forego the pleasure

However, the disappointed guests
had hardly left the springs before the
engines quit 'bucking," and began 70
work beautifully, and the "Wekiwa"
made the trip down the Silver Springs
run, the Oklawaha and St Johns riv-
ers without break Judge Bullock
regrets the circumstance very much,
and promises to repeat the invitation
at some future time.
He says that the crew of the We
kiwa' consists of Frank Mathews.
