lives somewhere on the hill road between this
place and the South Village, on getting up one
morning last week, discovered the cg ola COW
sticking out Of an old well a short distance
frou the house. On going to the place lie
found saIi CIV hanging in the well with her
ha:3 "awuwaris, her size being too large to ad-
mat Of her slipping entirely through the open
ny at the top. The neghbors We're rallied
and after considerable lttlng the animal was
cXrcaIed; when 10, a second COW was found
IN the bottom of the well, only in reversed
position, the head being M. An apparatus was
arranged and COW number two was raised -
But the best part the whole story is the cows
came out unscratched and in less than an hour
were engaged in hard fight with each other.

story we would respectfully remind them that
truth lies in welI.'-H Hoodstock .ige.
