The second visitor was a lad about
thirteen years old. He knocked on the
door, but walked in at once, having in
his hand fine umbrella which he had
picked up somewhere.
"HOw much for -?'
The sight of me cut short his speech.
He had been there oft and again, and
his face was well-known to the old
man. but they now entered into little
by-play to deceive me.
"Ah! good evenings, my poy," said
old Jezel, as he rose up. Ills your

The boy hesitated an instant, got a
wink. and replied:

Three visitors now entered at once
two Italian women and an old negro.
The women had sacks of rags and the
man load of rubbish Of various sorts.
Scarcely word was said by the
women. Their rags were dumped out,
paved over, weighed, and the value
handed to them in cash. The negro
had been drinking and was inclined to
look at things in a jovial light.
