| regarding the identity OF his unbidden
| visitors, and he is grateful that they
took as little as they did, since his
large stock of piece goods was at their
disposal. They might have helped

had the means at hand to carry the
cloth away.

the city Of Brotherly Love. Rev. Mr..
Lange was almost idoliZed by his con-
gregation and some of them tried to

arrangements made for the transfer of
the household furniture to Philadel-
