Magazine:
Ben Barse, one Of the settlers in jackson
Township. Potter County Pennsylvania, kept
a "house of entertainment on Pine Greek,
for stray travellers through that thickly
wooded. sparsely settled country. His near
est neiChbor was man named Pest. who
lived three quarters of q mile distant up The
gotber fork Post was a small soTe-eyed
man, with large family, and eked out rather
a scauty livelihood by culiiyating about four
acres of clearing" and by fddling at all the
dances in the naighborhoOd.
Nine years ago a friend of mine was trav-
cling through that lonely country, and stopped
AZ Barse's for the night. After supper my
friend, who sat upon the s;oop smoking ci-
gar. was startled by terrific yell or howl
from an object coming in full career down
the road toward the house. Surprising II to
be some creature of the surrounding forest,
my friend advanced eau iously to reconn"itre,
for it was now nearly dark, and discovered
the "creature" to be an overgrown boy, bare
footed and bareheaded, who succeeded. be-
tween s0bs and howls, to explain that he was
Posts oldest boy, and that his mother. who
had been sick for some time, had Just died
OF course messenger was dispatched from
Barse's to the other neighbors, and all was
done that could be to comfort the beleaved
and to perform such kindly Offices as the oc-
casion required. The next morning Post
came down to Barse's, and requested Barse
and nv friead to 60 with him and pick out a
suitable spot as last restiug-pace for his
deceased wife, there being no bErying- ground
in the neighborhood. They went back with
him to bis clearing, and after looking over
the ground, they indicated as their choice
retired spot al some distance from the house.
The bereayed husband was evidently disap-
pointed, and said:
Friends, suppose you 60 down into the
woods and pick out spot 10 buy her. For
