rapher, who was crowding the lim

the witness replied:
I save the high priest, and he only

But when the priests accuse him
who is mighty to save, when sol

the temple vail must bear the mark

It Was Made Desolate by Internal

Siege,
During the siege by the Romans
the Jews fought among themselves
around ' their, temple. . Dead bodies
they heaped up, their own blood
they let, their own city returned
the terrible echo and bemoaned their
misfortune. :
Many of those venerable men who
presided over the temple and wore
priestly robes were cast out of the
ble to the canning industry if suffi
cient vegetables and fruits are rais
ed to supply the demands of can
ners, and, as climatic conditions
make raising many vegetables and
fruits extremely easy, H there is no
reason why we should not develop
a large canning industry in Anson.
