morning, and who is u firm believer in the
sub,crrancan porclne above referred to, as

inclined to be somewhat increduious the
ground hogs appeared simultaneously, and
after gazing mourntully first at their uncanny
shadows and then rcproacnfully ut the sccp'

during which time Mr.. Wegley was compel
