Recent visitors word Diana Dore and her husband Diekin Dawson. Dickła took up the invitation to play the part of a matador, and was soon flicking capa expertly over the bull's eyes.
But Diano, looking on apprehensivaly, declined an invitation to go in the ring. "I wouldn't go near that bull for a million pounds," she said. Club owner Pedro Vidal pointed out that it was only a "baby bult-no danger at all." What's more, he had already printed some posters advertising "Diana la Magnifica" as a bullfighter. "My name is Diana Dore, not Mata Doms," said D.D., "and anyway, I'm just plain scared."

Fr. O'Hara cited instances of persons in need of a small loan going to loan sharks to whom they had to pay exorbitant interest rates.
