A spectator who witnessed the act, enquired why he had taken such a great ' risk. The brave one holding up the two bottles of “Westland” Ale, oromptly remarked it was well worth T while, and he added that he would go much further to procure a bottle of ale brewed by the Westland Brew- :G! eries.—43.
