WHO WAS IT?-The Davie Time,
says: Last May a man riding a horse
aud carrying a basket in his hand, stop~
ped at ashouse and asked for a drink OF
water, and when it was handed to him,
he asked the old lady to hold the basket,
snd when through drinking, told her she
might have the basket and rode off.
Upon opening it she found it contained
q babe, a note and ten dollars, also two
changes Of clothes. The note read
If this babe lives one month, write
to II. L. d." Mocksville, n. C., and
| will furnish money for its support.
OF course these are not my initials nor
90 | live in Mocksville, but [ will have
some one there to furnish you the
money"
We published the facts of the above
at the time, and as l.. L. ID. has not
been heard from, the gentleman who
took the babe from the old lady because
be did not want it sent to poor house, has
written a letter to the Post Mistress at
this place enquiring after the man,
with a request that we notice it
Dir. w. F. Campbell, who writes from
Jewel +. O., Stokes county, says the
babe is a fine looking girl nearly four
months old, and has never been sick
since he has had it," If any one knows
who this Living Lying Devil is and will
give any information on the subject,
they will confer a favor upon both the
gentleman and the child. Il may be
possible that Il. l.. D." is not Il resi-
dent of Davie county, but took TIL. plan
to dodge these people and shield the
parents from dishonor.

The regents of the Mount Vernon As
ISOLATION continued their sessions Tuesday after
noon and yesterday morning. Yesterdays ses-
sion, after the arrival of the boat, almost en-
tirely given up to the reception and entertainment
of the board of visitors and the advisory board.
Mr.. W. W. Corcoran, General n. w. Halstead and
Judge Ball represented the latter body. The
board of visitors consisted of Judge Thomas the
chairman Major Hunter Major holland, and Mr.
]. NJ. Forbes. After the formalitieS of the recep
ton joint meeting was held, during which the
affairs of the association were discussed, and the
board expressed their qualification in the excel
lent management Another topic under consid-
Grafton was the invitation extended through
the board from the Governor of Virginia
desiring the presence of the Mount Vernon
Association at the Yorktown Centennial 1t was
favorably considered by the regents but laid aside
for further elaboration. Later the visitors were
entertained at luncheon, and an enjoyable time
spent until the return of the boat At the meeting
yesterday afternoon the report of Colonel Holdings
worth was discussed In this report the revenues
the past year, stated, amounted to s1OS3i5O: the
expenditures, So 2236S leaving a balance Of
S610.S2. The number of visitors were 1919. Of
these, 1881 came by the boat and $50 by road.
The superintendent advocates the establishment
of deer park to carry another original feature
of the estate, asto make the place even more at
tractive. The farm products this year promise
favorably. Large crops of oats and rye will be
harvested, and al unusually large corn anG
grass crop. Miss Longfellow, the vice regent for
Massachusetts,, and Mrs Lewis Washington, for
Virginia, arrived yesterday, and will be present
during the future deliberations of the council.
The sessions will probably close on Friday. The
recent death of Mrs. Fitch the vice regent of In
diana, leaves vacancy that may be filled at this
council, the vice regents having the power to fill
all vacancies that occur. The day was pleasantly
spent by all, the number of visitors besides those
named, being unusually large.

More About that River swindIe.

No wonder great many people were
swindled who took the AIrowsmith for an excur-
sion on Decoration Day. Whipple and Shattuck, who
gave the excursion, say that they had an arrange
ment with Phillips, the superintendent of the Ar
rowsmith, that he would sell tickets to the river
landings only, the usual stopping places of the
boat, and charge the usual fare each way, which
is fifty cents and them on the Sunday previous to
the excursion, he advertised to sell round trip
tickets to the mouth of the Potomac and back for
fifty cents, after Whipple and Shattuck had ad-
Yertised and sold tickets for the same trip all the
week for seventy-five cents. They claim that
Phillips did not keep his agreement, and they do
not blame people who were apparently swindled
for complaining. Only two hundred tickets were
sold by the excursion Managers as promised
