lei Leavitt, who were accompanied on
this trip by William. son of Abner
Smith, one of the first settlers of Iras-
burg, and his neighbor, Benz. Wyman.
These parties had done some smuggling
and believed that Beekwith, who was
Custom House officer, had. on certain
occasions. seized and appropriated them
to his own use, they swore vengence,
and executed it in part, but not fully,
as it was their intention to crop both
ears. They left Irasburg one dark,
rainy night, and on arriving at Beck
with's house in Sutton. about midnight,
the Leavitts dismounted and let Smith
and Wyman hold the horses. They then
| effected an entrance into the house, and
/ into Beckwith's bed room, seized him by
the head and shoulder drew him out up
on the floor. They cut off one ear. but
Beckwith saved the other by violent ac-
ton and a loud screaming. With the
one ear they rushed for the horses,
mounted, and disappeared, covering
their tracks so handsomely that they
were never caught. They swore secrecy
as long as any one of these were living.
Smith was the last to die. and at the
close of his life he told the story to his
sister. widow Moses Gale, who now re-
sides in E. Burke, and from whom we
obtained these particulars. No man in

Many sad cases of human restitution
and suffering come before police mag
istrate in London; but one of the worst
that has occurred of late was that of a
wretched woman named Rosina Abbott,
who had been arrested because she per-
sisted in begging in the most plteous
manner for tobacco She had a black
pipe in her mouth all the time, and
pleaded with passers-by to keep it sup
piled with fuel She cared for nothing
else and appealed piteously to the Judge
when she was ''sent up for week that
she might have some tobacco. The
Judge, however, was inhexible, and
this poer boon was denied. 1t would
bring tears to the eyes of a Bermuda po-
tato to see a poor suffering mortal denied
the wretched consolation of one single
Whit for whole week of lonely incar.
ceration.
