my long experience have l received
such splendid treatment as did at the
hands of those aboard the Lurline.
Why. Captain Rind actually took his
vessel 100 miles out Of her course in
order to avoid danger of the horses
being knocked about in. a threatened
storm @.'..'s'" ..

have his horses ready for inspection in

horses" declared Berry, "and II they
don I turn out as represented the buy.
