A lady living in Chenago county, New
York, met with a peculiar accident re-
Gently Her provisions were all in the
cellar, the bottom Of which was covered
with water to depth of twenty inches
She could not live without eating, but
wade she would not; so she launched two
tubs, and, putting a foot in each, set sail
for submerged pork barrel Somehow
the tubs seemed to have no interest in
common. One took northerly course,
and the other steered due south. The
fair voyager, unable to maintain herself
in the attitude of Colossus of Rhodes,
gave up the ships and sank between
them into the waves. She sustained some
bruises and experienced severe nervous
shock. The tubs at last advces were
hull down on the horizon.
