"Well, sir, when they missed Dan and me out oil
the room two or three more stood up, and declared
for bed also The first took up was French, OF Green

by this time they were all quiet in the paror;
SO lent Burke couple OF blankets and bolster,
and having locked my door, went TO bed with an
easy mind and quiet conscience. To be sure, now
