belongings at the side of the building
Later a wagon hauled away a loan OF
the furniture.
Last night there was still a quantity
of goods remaining. including plano,
several large leather chairs and a china
closet.
II wish somebody would take those
things" said one of the employees. I'VE
don't want them; they are in our way,
and am afraid that baron is going to
get after me, cause every time l look
out there there seems to be something
else missing. I don't know who is TAX
ing the things"
Where did the baron go?" was asked
II don't think he knew himself where
he was going when he left" spoke up
the switchboard operator. II asked him
where to send his mail. He thought a
while and asked me to hold 1t and he
would call for 1t.
The baron had been an occupant OF the
apartment since its erection about a year
ago. The titled tenants money Is said
