The lamented giant never rallied from the nervous shock which overtook
him a few days since. Although details are still a-wanting, we
understand that his head was seriously affected. Dr John Smith was in
attendance to the last. Further particulars, with an extra supplement
and portrait memoirs of the three giants, will be given in our next. In
order not to disappoint our readers and advertisers, the prices in each
department will be further doubled.

elaborately-polished balustrade of the balcony.

"`Heard of you at Giants' Bay,' we remarked, by way of leading up to the
subject. There was a pause, and then the doctor replied, `Oh!'

"`A strange affair the sudden mortality in that place, doctor.'

"`What about it?' was the unexpected rejoinder, as the man of physic
slowly assumed a standing attitude.

"He was dressed in a light check suit, which reflected considerable
credit on the provincial tailor who made it.

"`That's the question,' we replied, with a touch of humour.

"The doctor appeared to feel the heat, but presently recovered

They were large, with flapped uppers and clumped soles, and c
