was telling how Lord Byron used to
belong to a club OF hard drinkers,
and every one of them had a empty
skull to- drink their drinks out OF.
They was a pretty fast. wicked set.
this author said, and as Wilfred has
always been q kind of bug on Byron
he started right in going to the wine
at the banquet. The only difference
was that he had to drink IT out of a
glass instead of a empty skull. though
goodness knows his own skull Is
empty enough. He was one sick boy

he will eat most of his evening meas
