A Romance OF Real Life.

A Romance OF Real Life.
In New York, ia 1866, my store
WAS in Maiden l.aae, within three
doors of the store If John Mpwatt,
an extensive dealer in shoes. HIS
foreman was John PeluSe, who sal
behind the counter stitching shoes
and waiting on suStnnrlS as they
stepped in. Oae day n corpse was
fnunu in the dock, ut the foot of the
street. The coroner took the jury
men from the neighhorhond, among
them John Mnwatt and his foI IN al
John PeluSe. The corpse lay nn the
table ia the ctntre of the room.
Some of the jnrym-n rema ktd that
as soon rs John PrlLse looked nn
the corpse. he startled, turned pale.
aud looked AS if he was going ~
faiut. lie rallied. however, hut his
subsequent movements occasinned
some curious remarks. Tie jury
having rendered II verdict Vt death
by drowning were discharged. Mo:
watt turned around to look for his
foreman, hut behold he WAS not
there. We stepped ont of the dnars
and saw him high up the street, on
a half run, when he quickly turned
q corner. All sorts of inquiries
were made, but nothing couli he
heard nf him. This. with his turn
ing pale at the first view of the
corpse, occasioned some strange sur
prise among the jurors, for many
days afterwards.
John Mowatt was a bachelor of
thirty-five. and Peluse mad seen
about thirty summers.
On Il certain day, about one month
thereafter, a lady in deep mourning
stenped into Mowatt's store and ASK
e for pair af shoes. Will. John
Was trying how the shoes fitted, the
lady inquired : ''Ynn had man in
your store-J1hn P,'lnse i,y name -

''Yes," said Muwa,t, ''but what
