PETE WHETSToNE AND THE MALL
EA# -. ROW

Peter Whetstone, of Arkansas was
once travelling through the interior Of the
State, and called one evening to stay all
night at log house near tLeroad, where
entertainment and post Office were kept.
Two other strangers were there, and
the mail rider rode up about dark. Sup
per being over, the mail carrier and the
three gentlemen were Invited into small
room, furnished with good fire andstwo
beds, which were to accommodate the
four persons for the night. The mail car
rler was little shabby, dirty looking
wretch, with whom none of the gentle
men liked the idea of sleeping. Pete
Milestone eyed him closely as he asked;
4" Where do you sleep to night. my
lad 90
" III thleep with you, 1 reckon" lisp
ed the youth, " or with one of them fell
lers. | don't care which,"
The two gentlemen took the hint and
occupied one of the beds together, imme-
dlately, leaving the other bed and the
contab to be enjoyed by Peter and the
mail boy together as best they could.
Pete and the boy both commenced
hauling off their dudds, and Pete getting
into the bed first, and wishing TO get rid
OF sleeping with the boy, remarked very
earnestly:
Ny friend, I'll tell YOU beforehand,
I've got the itch. and you'd better not
get in here, for it is cat*hing."
The boy, who WAS just getting into bed
too, drawIed out very costly:
Wall, l reckon that don't make bit
O'ditference, I've had it now for nearly
these theven years." and into bed he
pitched along with Peter, who pitched
out in as great Il hurry as if he had
walked up hornets nest i'll the bed.
The other two gentlemen roared, and
the mail boy wLo had got peaceabIe pos
session of the bcd TO himself, drawIed
out:
Why. you must be !!;.vt o'Garned
;aies. nam and dads got the each heap
wurth than is, and they thIept in that
bed last night when .hey were here at
the Quillin."
The other two strangers We're now in
worse predicament chan Peter had been,
and bouncing from their nest us though
the house had been on fire, stripped,
shook off their clothes and put them on
again, ordered their horses, and though
it was nearly ten o'clock, they all three
left, and rode several miles to the next
town before they slept, leaving the i'm

scratching and sleeping alone Southern
