story of an apparently incorrigible farmer
who publicly declared that he had at last sex

The Springfield Republican says that Ira
r. Lawson, the married Shaker, and his wife,
are back to the Hancock family after a "a

elopement some time, and that when once
started in the world, Ira did not have back
bone enough to hold out. At any rate he re-
turned and begged the Shakers to take them
to their protecting fold again. A Pittsfeld
clergyman went to Albany with them, We'd
nesday night and married them, and Satur
day Lawson told the minister he had given up
the idea of becoming family man, and would

answered with the remark that ''Ira was not
