night, when twenty innocent and care
free boys were playing tag upon its
charred deck. It will go mighty hard
with him. so It was repeatedly and pub

The barge had been used as n play

the barge out toward mid channel. and

he notified Harbor A and the Fire De-
partment, and then sprinted for the wa

II everybody intended to be first in line.
Finally they decided that everybody just
naturally couldn't be the first to shake
hands with the famous priest, so they
lined UP and greeted him in turn.
