such malicious and absolutely groundless
assertions a* "it wont live six months."
They said at first it would not live two
months and now that the two months are
nearly up and it is still a pretty lively in
stitution with no visible signs of death,
they plead for an extention of time in
which to make goid their gratitious pro
