\ PITT>FIELD FISHERMAN. Among
the ..honeSt fishermen" of this town
there was few wears since Il certain
deacon of the church. who. like
all good dtaconS. was IL thrifty man.
His business wa, prosperous and the
comforts of life surrounded him. His
hcsettiug sin was that he loved fishing
hey ond any other sort of Labor OF en-
iuNmcnt. He never could resist the
temptation of an invitation to 90 fish
inr ON one Occsi>iOn Gov. Briggs. who.
AZ vour readers know. WAS resident
of this place. being visited by some OF
his friends. proposed IL fishing excursion.
To insure its success the Governor said
they must have Deacon -- with
them. Now the deacon WAS Il sturdy
Bcrk shire farmer. 1t was having time.
The deacon believed i'll the proVerh,
Make hay while the sun shines. as
firmly a> he believed IN the promises.
He. was very busy. He and his men
were in the field hard at work. \ large
quantity had been moWn. WAS almost
cured and ready to he housed. The
weather WAS not very pr"PitiouS and
the deacon WIS pushing things III
order to have all the cured hay put
away safely before the threatened
'changc in the weather." The Gov
ern"r and his friends approached the
deacon and requested him Ia accompany
them. Almost any other man would
have declined under the circumstances ::
but the good deacon did not. Looking
at the heaps of hay just ready I" he
carried to the barn. then survey ing the
sky and then thinking Il while of the
possible injury from the rain to his hay
