The child was given into the hands oil an OLD
negro woman, in a cabin some distance from the
owners residence, TO be taken care Of Having
occasion, however. for the services OF the woman
about his premises, the idiot was left IN the cabin
alone. Finding it great burden, he offered 70
e:ve any one who would take it a hundred dollars
This offer was promptly accepted by m an
standing by, who in bis turn, offered fifty dollars
10 any one who would takeitfrom him. The oiier
was acceded to by third person, who Immediately
offered twenty five dollars to any one to take 1t on
the conditions on which he had done. \ Gus
toner was not long wanting-the bargain was
struck, and the twenty-five dollars paid.
The fellow into whose hands the idiot last FELL
in company with another, proceeded TO the cabin
some two miles distant, on cold, frosty morning
took the child out almost naked and bare-iooted'
and drove it before them almost the whole ais
