is one of the eldest Judges in the State

fact Is seen in the challenge he sends

Judge Btaake seys he haa. preserved
such physical vigor despite his uge that
he could "eutwalk" any of these te
whom he has addressed his challenge.
Apparently he Is fairly certain of his
ability, as none has come forward as
yet te accept his challenge. ,
