name OF Elsie Craig, who soon responded to Jo-
seph notice This was followed by an inter-
view between the parties
According to the account which the girl gave
Mt Cutchogue, Mr.. Baker represented himself to
her, to be gentleman Of character and respecta-
biity, IN the community where he lived--that he
had a valuable farm down on Long Island, with
good house, pleasantly situated, and all the ne
cessary improvements and nppurtenances, that he
kept cows, and other stock, together with horse,
carriage, &c.

Then bright with silver CLEAN,

There grew lily white,
And the stream threw its arms around it,
As if in Pure delight.
AS it flowed by the side Of the islet,
Its song was mellow and gay,
And the lily looked down on it smilingy
