verting if not convincing. Questioned by

procured liquor responsible for his condi-
ton Saturday night, the respondent told
of unearthing bottle long since thought
lost in the Holland woodshed on Summer
street. Holland said he found the bottle
back of a barrel as he went to the shed
for an armful OF wood in the late aft
ernoon. "1t was some stuff / brought
back from Boston last spring" explained
Mr.. Holland, "and ] had accused my wife
of taking it from its hiding place. She
said she never did, but always thought
it was her until Saturday" finished the
witness. He had given up the quest OF
the lost pint and the discovery was pure
ly accidental. Afterwards he encoun-
tered a man with quart of wine on De-
pot square. He took one swallow, he
said, and passed the bottle back. 1t
was the end of his libations, for Officer
Harry Gamble picked him up and led
him away to police headquarters. Spec

ctal and it's humorous side was evident
