ture. Music, Painting, Sculpture; Inven-
lions, Discoveries; Wit, Humor, Fancy,
Sentiment: the Nerves, Fashions and

up; for it is Gu, off by bridge about ha II
mile from the lake, and mile. further
up it is cut off by dam.
Between this bridge and the dam there
is drift, which is famous place for
catching fish in Weare, built on, into the
middle of the river. in form like a Y
with the fork up stream, and down to
the lower end there is crib into which
the water and fish run. pitching down a
little fall of about three feet, and then as
the crib is built of Stats, the water runs
out, leaving the fish to be picked on, by
the proprie,ors Of the wears.
They use to catch lots of cells there,
and rousing fellow, big as boys leg,
and long as stick Of wood, was thought
dear in Oswego at fourpence. But some
how, buying eels, even if we got them
for nothing, didn't suit me, and deter,
mined TO steal few of them on, of the
wears up there.
| told Mrs. Wer,s, the young widow
that ! boarded with, wha, was going at;
and reckon she was up to them games,
for she furnished me with p!llow-case
to bag my game, and two pairs OF
wollen mi.tens to aid me in nabbing the
slippery customers; and thus armed and
equipped | set out on my midnight eel
ing expedition.
When | came abreast of the wear,
discovered that the skiff l had seen there
at shutdown was gone: but as | knew
thar the water wasn't more'n up TO my
arms, didn't care much. and so | wad-
ed off to the wear, where l found and
bagged about twenty real swingers.
My pillow case was nearly full, and
wasjuss about to getunder way for home,
when the great-granddaddy of all eels
came wal!oping down into the water
| pitched into him, but my mi,tens had
go, so slippery with the slime of captured
cells, that | could not hold him second.
There we had il for about ten minutes
up and down, over and under, slip, slop
until at last got mad, and making a
desperate dive for the old fellow, go,
his head into my mouth, and - wah!
faugh! what taste, as my teeth crunch
ed through ard through his head, until
they met, and the big eel dropped quiet
ly down. leaving part Of his ut.water,
bit off somewhere about the eyes, in my
mouth. spit il out quicker, and about
all my inside "fxius" with it.
Wasn't sick! For about twenty
minutes tried to turn myself wrong side
out like stocking, and then pillow cased
the old eel, waded ashore and mizzled
for home, feeling as if | had swallowed
q land CRAB, and beea ridden for months
by double and twisted attack of the
Maumee fever.
Next morning, before turned out,
heard the little wilder singing out in
the back entry where I'd slung my bag
Of eels. Hs
%, Charley! Charley! come here
quick!'
Well, did; and, as I'm live sinner,
there on the floor, among the cells. and
the bigges, of them all, was laundering
great black, scafer snake, Oith his nose
bit off about the eyes!
Those two pigs in the back yard had
an eel breakfast that morning, and Clew.
line swore an oath never to wade about
in the night after other peoples eels
again.
