LITTLE GAY SIssoN created a
sensation one day last week.
He went to the meadow below
the house, laid down in the
grass and probably went to
sleep. A dog which generally
accompanies the little fellow
in his rambles, returning to the
house dripping with water; the
first thought was that Gay had
got in the creek which runs
through the meadow, and was
drowned. A hasty examina-
tion--he was not found, and the
alarm was given. In q short
time a crowd of men and boys
were hurrying to the creek,
where they arrived just in time
10 find Gay in the meadow, not
the least alarmed or abashed by
the sensation he had created.
