The "Grip."

Major James Ganson. Of LIE Rov.
New ork, though small man. had
the most powerful grip Of hand of any
man | ever knew. His hand was ike
smiths vice whenever he chose TO
exert its full strength.
1t was one night, III the height OF
the antl-hasonlc excitement of 1886.
and s, that silly Anti" by the
name of Smith, came into lie Rov and
sought out the Major, saving that he
had heard that he. the Major, could
give the real Master-Masonic grip.and
that he had come over eighty miles on
foot to obtain it.
The meeting took place in the bar
room OF the principal tavern, where.
as usual, many Masons were congre-
gated, who, knowing the strength Of
the Majors grip, We're on the lookout
for iun. Having, according to Gus
tom, first taken a drink, the Major ex-
tended his right hand and slightly
grasped that of Smith.
Are you readyI' asked the Major.
al ready replied Smith.
The Majo steadily looking Smith
IN the eye, began to tighten bis grip.
Smith very soon began to vince
Tighter and tighter grew the Mgior's
grip; and Smith began to beg to be
let off.
why, this is only the Entercd-ap-
prentice grip" said the Major. Il
Will now give you the Fellow Craft"
And the Major gave his hand-vice
several more turns, which caused much
sroaning and many ludicrous contor-
tions on the part Of Smith, who lusti-
ly begged to be let of, and said he
was satisfied and didn't want any
more grips. The Major, however,
was inexorable, and still held on to
Smith all the time, shaking his hand.
and every shake causing groan.
"Now," said the Major, having
come a long way to get the real Mas.
ter Mason's grip, it would be wrong
IN me to let You go home without it :
There it is, said the Major; the
real Master Masop's grip.and one that
you viii not soon forget :" at the same
time exerting to his utmost his. great
muscular powers, causing the bones
IN Smiths haEi to crack and the blood
to start from III. Ter his finger nails
Smith IN the mean time believing
with pain.
e "Go home" said the Major, "and
tell your anti-Masonic friends, that if
any of them want the Master Mason's
grip, to come to me. for ! hatter my
selS that | can give it as we'll as any
other man
The Major gave one more turn of
the vice and then released his victim.
The next day Smith, with his hand
done up IN poultice, started for
home. entirely satisfied with the Ma
sonic information he had so painfully
obtained "A wiser, if not better
