He has kept it pretty dark, but murder will out.'l Chick deserves credit for being one of the few men of the Class who bear the slightest resemblance to being a grind.

Deck was born August 31, 1893, and came to Nichols from St. hlarkis in 1910. You can't judge by Deck's pictureg he doesn't even know himself in it.
