wlthou, severe struggle, in which the
thief lost his bonnet, and was obliged
to escape leaving it on the road. A
respectable farmer happened to be the
mex! passer, and seeing the bonnet a.
lighted, took i, up and imprudenlly pu,
il on his own head. Al, this inslan, the
robbed man came up with some assist.
ance, and recognized the bonnet. charg-
ed the farmer with having robbed him,
and Immediately took him into custody.
There being some likeness between the
two parties, the merchant persisted in

This was the real robber, who sud.

seizlng the fatal bonnet, which laid on
the table before the witness, placed it
on his own head. and looking him full
in the face, said TO him in voice of
