good old days when everybody on the easterly

The deacon was accustomed, for the space Of
nifty years, to take his II o'clock and o clock
refresher of that orthodox beverage. At these
precise hours he was wont to 60 to the we'll.

the antique sweep, draw pail of water to cool

process of time, full of years and honors the
deacon was gathered to his fathers. Rnt' this

OF habit upon it, coupled with its incapacitv to
