"Procrastination IS the thief of time"
The above maxim was fully APP
preciated a short time ago, when
one of the Point Pleasant gents
came on this side to see his best
girl. 1t seems that the moments
glided by SO rapidly that the Ferry
man had retired before he thought
of it being midnight, and now, alasl
how could he get across the dark
river. Accordingly the good in
tended mother-in-Iaw, after several
vain efforts procured boy and an
old John boat, and as the intended
bride stood upon that lonely bank
and peered out in tho dark to see
that dangerous craft; what indescri-
able sighs of grief. But all was
over when a small, sweet voice
resounded from the other shore,
sail safe dear" SLY.
