a big way-.
But Phelan's teams -were only mod-

took a 20 per cent cut along with oth-

is a place-name derived from two
sources, having in some cases origi-
nally denoted "belonging to Warwick,
in Warwick County" and in others
"belonging to Warwick, in Cumber-
land". The derivation* of these two
place-name* are different. Various
spellings of the name of the town in
Warwick County, found in early*
chronicles, show that its originally
meant "the camp or fortified place of
the Waer family”. The personal
name "Waer” is derived from the Old
English “woer”. meaning “true". The

means "watchman". Thi* place-
