How Mr.. Reynolds was Rewarded for an
Act Of Kindness.
From the Danbury News

lErOm tuo bouOoiy NeVoJ
A New York party named Reynolds
who had been spending the Summer
here, was at the upper end Of Deer
Hill avenue, strolling tor his health,
a few days since. when he observed a
boy trying to pull a kite from an ap-
Die tree, where 1t had lodged. As MIR.
Reynolds came up the string broke,
leaving the kite up there. With tho
natural promptings ola humane heart,
the gentleman gave his coat In charge
of the boy, and, crawling over the
fence, was soon up the tree. The boy
felt pretty bad about the accident to
his kite, but on taking a second look
at the coat, which was almost new, he
dried his tears, and scampered off with
II, unperceived by Mr.. Reynolds, who
was trying to take an obstinate twig
from the back OF his neck. Alter con-
siderable difficulty he reached the kite,
and was stretching forth bis hand to
take It, when the limb he was on sud
denly snapped In two, aud he fell
some six feet, splitting one OF his
pantaloons-legs half way up, and run
ming q twig into his nose with such
violence as to make that organ bleed.
Fortunately he was saved from further
mishaps by catching on a strong limb.
He stopped then to feel Of his nose,
and mediate on the accident, when a
rough voice from below demanded
Whist he was doing there. and looking
down, he saw a shirt-sleeved, bare
headed man, with a pitchfork In bis
hand and fire In his eye. Mr.. Reynolds
explained about the kite. "That won't
do" said the man. "I've had too
many apples hooked from that ere
tree :; and, now that I've got the thief,
intend to make him dance" Aud
the man looked feroclously at Rey-
nolds' facilities for dancing. The un-
happy Reynolds referred him to the
boy for an Endorsement OF his story.
What boy? ?" asded the owner Of the
orchard. az don't see no boy. There
amt no boy here" Reynolds looked
out In tue road, but there was no boy
In sight. He shouted "Bub," two or
three times, but there was 10 response.
The color deserted his face, and a look
Of astonishment and horror spread
over his counteRance. "This Is very
extraordinary" he said. Very"
colncided the farmer, with great dry
ness. "That boy has stolen my coat,
and | must pursue him and recover It."
said Reynolds suddenly becoming
frantic over his loss, and preparing to
descend. 40, come down and catch
