"You can't fool an old fool thai

gentleman, smiling complacently
"You love, and you shall marry
At the next term of the circuit
court, my love, you file a petition

John get married. Make this your
home, and at my death you'll get
all my possessions" AS the old
gentleman directed, the divorce
was procured. The next day John
Simpler (the hired MANI and the
new widow were married. They all
are living together as happy as
turtle doves. The old gentleman
has willed the couple all he pos

Last year, on Grassy creek, Silas
Kinnard, a stalwart youth of II,
married little Ella Patten, only 8
years of age. After living with his
child-wife three weeks, he took her
back to her parents, and said !:
Here is your-dad-gosted, little, no
count, good fer nothin' gal! /
amt got no use fer her at all /!
Take her. I've boarded her fer
nothin' jest as long as / intend to-"
She got divorce from him on ac-
count of abandonment at the last
torn of circuit court.
Last summer, John Martin, on
Pinniconick, fell in love with Miss
Dolly Gates. They became en-
gagged. John went to her father,
Tom Gates, and asked for his
daughters hand.
"Do you think you are q better
man than what l am" asked old
Tom, smiling in a dubious way.
mo, L think not. No man in
the county is a better man than
you, according to my notion" re-
torted John. "You belong to the
church, pay your debts, and"
"Stop! Do you think you can
whip me?" spoke the old fellow
fiercely.
ooh, no." laughingly said Mar
tin.
"Then, We can't get my gal. l
alters said the Teller what got that
little gal, had ter be a better man
nor what l am afore he got her."
Martin stroked his chin in vexed
embarrassment. Finally he said:
"Old man, Pm bound to have the
gal if | have to beat you into mince
meat. Here goes"
The two fought for several min
utes, when Martin got his thumb
in old Toms eye and made him
bleat."

AT that moment a tall form was
seen on top of the mountain. 1t
was that of a man wearing suit
of store clothes, carrying n bundle
at the end of stick thrown across
his shoulder. q
"Thar's Tom, now," said Barton,
and cheer after cheer arose, echo

the little cove where the store stood
was filled with the sound of the

NOVEL THINGS

Happenings in the Mountain Re-

A HUSBAND SELLS HIS YOUNG WIFE.

side world. A few of their matri.
monial eccentricities that have
come under your correspondents
observation will be detailed below :
A few weeks ago John Miller, of
Fsirview, near Vanceburg, aged 80,
fell in love with Miss Nettie How
ard, a young girl of II. On his
promise to will her all his posses
sions (Which consisted of a small
hill farm, yoke of steers and q
scrub cow she consented to marry
him. A few days after the mar
riags, John Lyter, G. A. r. vete-
ran, received back pension to the
amount of $500. He at once paid
court to the girl-wife of neighbor
Miller. She listened to the voice
of the enchanter, and confessed
her love for him, Going to her
husband, she besought him to re-
lease her from the matrimonial
yoke, burn up the will and permit
her to marry Lyter. Miller lis-
tened to the wife, and finally said:
II CANT give up SIGH er nice piece
er property without nuthin' in
compensation"
Lyter and he, by agreement, met
in Vanceburg and settled the nego-
tiation satisfactorily to all con,
cerned. Lyter paid Miller, for the
latter's wife, $50 in cash, pony
and a key of whiskey. Miller then
went his way smiling, and Lyter
and his spouse-to-be walked off
arm in arm, "happy as brides in
their nests"
A few years ago Col. VIM, Nc
Cane, an ante-bellum aristocrat of
Tennessee, came to Vanceburg and
purchased o large tract of wild
land adjoining the corporation on
the south. This he at once began
to improve. He set out a fine orch
ard, consisting of every variety of
fruit trees adapted to this latitude.
He built in the midst of his pos
sessions a fine mansion in which
he lived for years alone, with the
exception of ono man servant. He
was a man of great learning, but
rarely spoke to any one. He Wis
tied no one, except on missions of
charity. Finally, however, he cast
his eye upon buxom young widow,
Mrs. Sallie Shumate, passing near
his house. Her face and general
physique fascinated the old gentle
man, and sent the current of love
splashing through his old, loose
veins. He called on her next day,
and, after a formal greeting, told
her he had come to propose mar
riage. She blushed and said ''she
would consider"
delays are dangerous, 'emphat-
ically spoke the old man. 81 am
old, and liable to die any hour.
Do you want my home and money?
If so walk with me at once to
Squire Fishers" She went, and
they were married in ten minutes
after they had exchanged their first
words. Soon after their marriage
the old gentleman discovered that
his bride had been smitten by the
charms of his comedy hired man. !
