HOLLEE."
BY RODENT r. D0TY.
She WIS not 30 stately as some people,
nor was abe as fair as she might have
wished, yet size was passing fair.
She was generally the leader Of every
choir, and We might remark that she was
right clever singer.
Her amiablaneas attracted considera.
bic attention from several unsuccessful
rivals living in and around Old Maids
Hollow.
The subject Of my sketch could kndle
up the fires Of patriotism in any common
pessou's soul. Hearts contaminated
with hardness were turned 10 love by her
effusive words. She was designated as
. "steam-taiker," and could bag man
ON any subject. Could tell more tales
Of love aad euchantneut, Of set-backs,
Of general comfort to tho genial soul Of
man, thsn Joachim Miller, E. D. E. N.
Southworth, OF any horse-railroad con.
ductor.
She wore golden hair, had hazel eyes,
Is well ss possessed all Of Wat Scots
and Charley Dickens novels, end lso
an endless amount Of De Wits and Bea-
dies ten-cent roAsnees OF the latest e,G-
tons. She also packed great deal Of
crinoline, end wore duok Of hat pat
ented in 1A0a; wore high-laeed shoes,
painted red On the toes. So this is the
general description Of tho womsa who
tried to hook the youthful and innocent
butchers son that lived in the country,
As stated before, she was singer.
She was so eminent as q singer that she
would have naads all the big stars take
down their signs. She could sing such
sentimental songs rs "I'll Never Court
but One, "Tu Have You If You'll Have
Ne, "I Love None else but Thee"
kiss Me Once Before You Co." and
many others OF Like import.
All of these she could sing without
single variation throughout. This spe-
cies Of singing was known by Bach,
Mozart, Handel, Franz Abt and Liszt o.
"soid singing"
But this is not telling my tale. We
started out to tell tale Of truth, except
that part which is strongly saturated
with lies, but We hope the readers will
not disapprove of our way of showing
up the different incidental episodes of
loves research.
Haddie-now I've told the name; j; you
are introduced to her. She was hero
in common life. She, it was thought by
the Christian community, was LIBERAL
believer III that which tends to raise the
low state of foriorn soul to that OF
. higher position. She lectured tho
chivalrous young men that dispensed
their bacchanalian love to her on the
evils Of cussin'," as she expressed it
Take notice she WIS perfect Nasty,
dramatically and rhetoricaily. Her
substitution Of words was simply amaz-
ingly atrocicus.
Now we'll at our tale little further.
Imagine row Of stars like the following:
which suggests broken gap or some
thing left out. If we were to write the
incidents that should be written here, it
would take pamphlet as large Is Hos
letters Almanac to contain it,
Let's be brief. Here We go. Read
tho letter that the subject Of our Gketch
