Dear Fellow Atlantians, I send greetings from the autocrat of Sacred
Stone's Baronial Novice Tourney.  Due to a mixup, this event flyer did
not appear in the April Acorn as expected so the autocrat, Anastasia
Rublev, has asked me to resend her earlier mail with event flyer
information.  Her provider's mail servers sometimes have unforseen
problems.
