The Fish Book.

Books and manuscripts have been discovered in strange places and by astonishing processes, but the recovery of that work which is known as "VOx Piscis"-the fish book-is most ex- traordinary occurrence. It was on June 23, 1926, when cOdfish was brought to the market in Cambridge, and when opened it was found that it's stomach contained book, much soiled and GOV cred with slime, though it had been wrapped in sailcloth. It was work written by John Faith and comprised a number of treatises on religious and other matters. Strange to say, Faith had been confined in fish cellar at Oxford, from which he was removed to the tower and then burnt at the stake for his adherence 70 the re- formed religion. The authorities at Cambridge reprinted the work, which had been completely forgotten until 1t turned up in this strange manner.

 They were in the safe. which Is a strong room of concrete and steel, when the door, which had not been closed for 20 years, swung to and the five bolts on each side automatically engaged. Efforts to open it were fu- tile. The bolts, rusted by long disuse, proved immovable, and the key broke in the lock. The prisoners were fed with sandwiches cut to the thinness of fine wafers, passed through a slit in the door, but suffered from thirst and standardization. Welding and cut ting experts were eventually called in, who tackled the solid six-inch steel door and cut 1t from top to bottom.
