Her age she was eight years older than he was one of his sorest points. "Oh, come on, now," said Furst as he poured out the coffee. "That's hardly fair.

But at the beginning of 1836, the ministers, justly urging that it was important, in a national point of view, both with regard to the security of titles to property, and to that knowledge of the state of population the value of which was recognized by the establishment of the practice of taking a decennial census, that there should be a general register of all such occurrences, introduced a bill to establish a registry and registrar in every Poor-law union, with a farther registry for each county, and a chief or still more general one in London for the whole kingdom, subject to the authority of the Poor-law Commissioners.
