The Johnsontown (Pa.) Tribune pub.
fishes the following as an extract from a
letter written TO her family BY young
Miss who lis attending boarding. school
in the interior: 4. 4
81 must tell you about an affair OF Elm.
ma H-'s, that happened last Saturday.
A young man who had agreed to come and
pass off as her cousin, and take her out
carriage riding, under the pretence that
he was taking her to his fathers, few
miles in the country; Blu, his father does
not live within . hundred miles of this.
Well he came according to appointment,
introduced himselfas Enma's cousin, and
asked to take her home with, him to spend
the afterno Jon. Miss W said she had
not the slightest objection. asked how far
it was, and in What direction, and told
Emma to got ready to go. But when
Emma was ready to start, Miss W
also came down ready dressed, and said
that as their carriage was large enough
for three. she would go along with them
part Of the way, and stop Al friends
house who lived 4 short distance from the
uncle that Emma was going to see, and
they might stop for her as they came back
in the evening Of course they could
do no better than tell her they would be
glad to have her go~with them. although
they would have a dull time with her
along; but they thought they could make
up for it BY having nice social ride af.t
ter Miss W - stopped at the friend So
So off they started in fine spirits, and
when they had gone three or four miles
they began to expect that every house
they came TO won ID be the ono that Miss
W would stop at but she didn't
stop at any, And finally, when they had
gone some five OF six miles, Miss w 49,
said she must have passed THE house by
some mistake. for they had travelled twice
as far as it was from town; but, since they
had passed it, she would not trouble them
to turn back with her, but would 90 on
with Emmato her uncle's and stop Just
minute at her friends as they came back
There was what you might call "a fx,'
and Emma and her beau could do nothing
but drive On. So on they drove, and on
they drove; but driving did not driTe
away their troubles. At last, wher/they
