"I 'll have to pick up my schedule again." "You're going when?" "In a day or two now," he replied. "You see it's necessary for me to desert you." "Monte!" "The law demands the matter of six months' absence perhaps a little longer. I 'll have this looked up and will notify you.

For many years Albion had a regular place on the schedule and was regularly defeated, save in 1891, when it won for the first and last time.
