It is to be presumed that this was a case of "Barkis is willin'," hmsmnoh as the 1 young lady in question had previously | boon engaged ill so desperate, a flirtation with the bold swam that her relations had popped her into this schoql by way of putting an end to their love passages. ) Wo liavo nn estonsivo range of English ■ and.
