Without doubt many people were right
glad to see the end of 1881, and to know
that Mother Shipton was fraud. Let
not such persons rejoice too much, for
here comes q Hartford man who says
that it is mistake to limit the period of
the danes prophecy with the 91st of

gath of March next, So there are some
eighty odds days yet in which to fulfill
the prophecy. What an uncomfortable
bore this Hartford man is, to be sure. -
