have been related to US, Mr.. Williamson is repre-
sented to be very wealthy old gentleman, living in
the extreme western part of Missouri. In travelling
about fol health and recreation, accompanied by a
nephew, he stopped few weeks since at the we'll
known hosptable house of our old friend Moses
Smith Esq; who happening to be absent rare
occurrence with him-Mrs. Savage, niece of his
wife, came to the door to receive the new corners
she also waited upon them at table. and won their
good opinions rapidly, that the nephew declared
himself enraptured with her, and expressed deter
mination carry her back with him to Missouri on
their return e Gould prevail uPen her to accompa-
ny them. The uncle entertaining the same opinion,
the nephew prudently gave way and the old gentle
man proposed" The lady was rather coy, hesita-
ted, and required time for deliberation They pro-
ceeded to the Virginia Springs. and on their return
the cid gentleman with ptating heart awaited the
final decision of the lady. He was informed that
she was widow with four responsibilities" which
was all she possessed. He said he was rich enough
for them all, and finally the marriage came off, and
they have all started for the far West. May haPpi-
ness and success tend them. Marlborough Press.
