Phil Clark and Hull Page took a
trip to Cambridge Junction last Fri
day evening, going down on the mail
and expecting to return on the eX-

it is said to a couple of young ladies |
caused them to get left, and placed
them in peculiar dilemma. How to
get home that night was a perpleX-
ing problem. They discussed walk
ing, but being too far they finally
persuaded the station agent to allow
them to sleep on the settees in the
| depot. After visiting Jacksonville
and passing the evening the best they
could under the circumstances they
returned to the Junction and then
stretched out on their hunks for the
night. Being away from home they
| epald not sleep, SO O cdntinu9us whls-
Ting was kept up to while away the
hours and keep off spooks. About
midnight a whistle was heard and an
approaching train sent thrill OfjOy
! through their respondent breasts,
and when Frank True entered the
depot their JOY knew no bounds. The
train.Was a special and had run down
to the Junction for the accOmmOda-
ton of parties returning from the
Morrisville lecture. Frank had be-
come worried about them, and fear
ing some harm had befallen the boys
went down to hunt them up. The
boys lost no time in getting on the
train, and when they reached home
about one O'Clock they had concluded
the girls in this neighborhood were
good enough for them and it would
take a mighty handsome girl to cause
them to miss the train again.
