achieved sudden fame and notoriety by
running off with his young and pretty
aunt and the best mule team on the farm

reported, is inconsolable over the loss of
the mules, which were the most beautiful
in the county. He can find another aunt
for his truant nephew, but the loss of the
mules is irreparable. The nephews OF
western uncles should be more consider.
