in the same house with a mortal enemy,
and finally both determined to move.
Arrangements were made. and, as luck
would have it, both moved the same
day. Lady No. | loaded up her house
hold goods in the morning, and in the
afternoon q dray pulled up and car
ried away the trunk, shawlstraps, and
other effects of lady No. 2.

new lodging place, when a, wagon

landlady.
