lived in little house, the front of

and two daughters. He saved two

A clerk of one of Boston's courts
tells very good story Of a some

trying a case in which there was a
great scarcity of witnesses, and the
evidence was about all circumstan-

B. r. Prince hands W copy Of the
Salem Mass. Gazette Of September -,
which contains an account Of tho cele-
bration of the Tooth anniversary Of tho
birth Of his aunt. The paper itself is .
curiosity, for under the heading In tho

OF Mr.. Princes aunt, who has
reached the remarkable age Of 100
years, the Gazette says:

there was not man of his crew who

not so surprising statement to JUS
when we learn that the afterwards "a

Pointing to the cook, "There is tho
cook" said Capt. Prince, ''even he
knows how to work lunar" A can

Capt. Prince, is shown to-day as
valued heirloom in the family Of Mrs.

The writer goes on to say that the
lady was of rather quick, nervous tenn
permanent, energetic and earnest in
speech and with u flashing eye. This
temperament, it is generally thought,
burns out soon, while tho more quiet,
stolid people are thought to live longest.
But the writer says he learned that the
lady had always been methodical and
regular III her habits, and two years
ago her physician said her organs were
all sound and she was in perfect health.
The writer, in calling upon the old
lady, asked whether her fondncss for
poetry continued, and she: then recited

and her face ''became glowing and
