Ha sealed the letter, then gars It to

Tha chancellor pondered deeply
over the situation, then started for
tha royal palace to report Napoleon's
visit and Rosltta's promises to his
majesty.
When Napoleon arrived boms ba
bad a long conference with Astra.
They were both somswhat depressed.
His disappointment In not securing
tha Peak Suemeg was great, because
ks had many Inventions that required
tha use of drynlth, and be knew that
tha eoanf s actions ware a menace to
tha pesos movement.
They decided that they would marry
ta the month of July. That evening
they woot to Clryne to toll their aator-
mlaetloa to Mrs. Edison.

Whatever Rosltta asked hs did with

Rosltta opened It, and hs held bis

"Mr little blond boy. ths time Is

"Did be say that I bad not (erred
