from twenty to twenty-five hours.
The raiders made for the English

searchlights which caused them to
drop almost all their bombs when

construction. So he refused the per-

At Mondays meeting Of the

in. It provided that the Chicago

to build a frame building on a certain
piece Of ground. The legal desCrip-
