A jolly old faraler came jogging along,
and the Hishmah put him down instantly

which he so much stood in need of himself.
Presenting his pistol, be commanded the

distance of about half mile. The re-
quest was complied with, accompanied with
the most patronizing air. Old Acres and

Pistol, he asked Pat if he would sell it.
