any one who could pursuade them to
leave me TO do 80. / had a cnachman
named Peyton Randolph, who was a
very grand person. One day on coming
home found in my hall a brace of can
back ducks with Mr.. Websters
name on them. Knowing thsy were left
BY mistake / told Peyton to take them
to Mr.. Webster's house and tall him the
facts. In time I saw Peyton coming
down the street With the ducks In his
hands. At loss to understand this
met him at the door. 4 have delivered
your message 70 Mr.. Webster said Pey-

had been left at your house by mi9take,
and that you had taksn the earliest OPP
portunity Of making restitution 'Pey-

back to your master and tell him that he
Is an h0nestef man than I; for while he
has returned to me my ducks, his,
which were left here by mistake, are al
ready on the spit
Mr.. Webster's physio9nony and
manner were likely to impress with awe
those who did not know him. but a
more delightful companion I have
never known. He especially shone at
dinner, where no one ever told an anec-
dOte as he could. He was swift and in
cisive, he never burdened his story with
details; every word was necessary, no.

Sir William Macarthur, whose death
was last month reported from Australia,
