We learn that after we left the
ground, Mr.. VIM. Moon, aged 81,
gave brief, but interesting account
of some of his pioneer experiences
Among other things he spoke of his
courtship and marriage, but forgot to
relate little incident that occurred
on one of his courting expeditions,
which one of his lady friends says is
an actual fact, and she thinks is too
good to be lost. On one occasion, af-
ter sitting up pretty late, with his
sweetheart, he retired to the room
overhead, and after undressing, threw
his pantaloons on the floor and went
to bed. Unluckily, one of the loose
boards of the cabin floor had slipped
aside, leaving hole, through which
the pantaloons fell, and as bad luck
would have it, alighted on the hearth
below, where the boys had cover
ed up the fire to keep for morning.
The result was the serious damage of
Mr.. Moons best pair of breeches,
besides his modification at the jokes
indulged in at his expense.
Among the relics of early days
which were exhibited, we noticed a
large pewter dish, made in 1903, be-
longing to Mrs. Mary J. Curp, of
Leesburg, and an old Virginia rifle,
made at Staunton, Va, in 1755, the
year of Braddock's defeat The rife
first belonged to JamesTrimble, faith
er of the late Gov. Trimble and our
townsman, John A. Trimble, Esq,
who now has it in his possession. 1t
was carried in the. Revolutionary war,
at the great Indian battle of Point
Pleasant, in 1774, and in the war ot
1872, and is still fit for service,
though the original stock has been
