judge!
Yet think what these words meant in case he could

You heard the testimony of Rufus Martin,the second
cook up there at Bear Lake?
And of course you had dinner that night and
breakfast the nextmorning, which cost you how much?
It was a dollar on the train to Gun Lodge and a

Well, now, do you recall a letter Roberta wrote you
on thenineteenth? Well, this is that letter written at the time these pictures

your trunk andlock it? But youdidnt forget to ask the purser the fare to Sharon,

And of course you had dinner that night and
breakfast the nextmorning, which cost you how much? As for the eighty dollars he had
forgotten. But now here and in this way it wascoming up for the first time. Well,
this is that letter written at the time these pictures weremade.
Though his sins be as scarlet, make him white as
snow.
You even asked the price of the bus fare to
BigBittern.
And then theoffender arrested and ordered arraigned
on the following morning.
