Mr.. Lowe on both Of the occasions
when he rose to address them.
Manager Was Lonely.
Mr.. Lowe was in somewhat the
same situation as Horatius at the
bridge. He explained that he could
not speak to the tenants as man

fused to recognize the fact that
the tenants were meeting in the
lobby.
He was quite by himself. He
didn't have friend in the hall.

place on the fringe of the crowd.

an opportunity to speak, he said,

Mrs. Brown retorted: 'sYou charge

tenants. The meeting was demon
