which was witnessed by number of per-
SONS who had armed themselves and

grove "a short distance from the Eairyiew
Hotel, better known as the "Mudhole"

up their minds that IL was.acting in "A
suspicious manner and with visions of
highwaymen before their eyes took To
their heels and notified some of their
friends who reside In the village. Some
of the more timid were in favor of going
for Oliver Bennett who has the reputation
Of being dead shot and who they
thought could pop the highwaymen from
"a safe distance but. this idea was secuted
by the majority and arming themselves as
best they could they started out with the
intention Of winning fame and glory Dy
capturing dead or alive the disciple OF
Dick Turpin. A stealthy march WAS
made across lots for the purpose of taking
the highwaymen In the rear and in a few
minutes the figure was sighted, standing
beside n tree close 10 the road. While they
were deliberating In whispers the hest
course TO pursue "A carriage drove along
tho road aud while the posses hair fairly
stood erect the figure leaped from its
place of concealment and seized one OF
the reins at the same time grab

the coat and screaming in shrill female
voice. "Oh, I've caught you this time.
This is "a nice way 10 treat your wife.
You won't go 70 the Mudhole this even
| ing You'll come right back home. " The
man attempted TO wrench himself away
| from the woman's grasp, but was not sue
cessful and in the sCuflle which followed
he was pulled from tho buggy and the
posse rushed up in time To- see the finish
of "a rough and tumble fight, in which

condemned to eternal association with
work whose beauties are seen through
the simmer OF its putrescence, and
whose infamy no poet of a later time
would accept for the sake of his fame.
Byron is no longer a god, Byron Is no
longer a devil; but he was undoubt-
edly guilty of sin against the light
which was in him.
His sin was largely a part of his pose.
which was so largely part of himself;
and 1t must not be taken too seriously
in making up Judgment of his char
acter. He has been very much mis-
judged because he has been taken too
seriously for good as well as for evil.
Because he was turbulent and rebel
lious, it was imagined that he was lib
eral; becase he was splendid and pro-
fuse, 1t was believed that he was gem
erous; and he was always suffering
from these misconceptions, both in his
friends and in his foes. The truth is
that Byron was always an aristocrat
with very feudal principles and in.
stncts; and though he gave his money,
and, at last, his life, to the cause of
Greek liberty he died as distinctly for
Byron as for Greece. There was per-
sistent boyishness in his nature, and
with all his greatness he had few hours
of maturity. His birth his place, his
experience bred in him beautiful
egotism which he never could put from
him in his relations with others. He
was not a judge of men or books, and
his rash and coarse estimate of Keats
was of the same quality as his esti-
mate of Hunt. The texture of his strer.-
uous mind was loose and rough; his
work, except in rare and fortunate mo-
ments, had defects such as mark that
of no other eminent poet; in his most
magnificent passages he had touches of
astonishing cheapness; he wore stage
jewels over his cloth of gold. But he
had bursts of true feeling amidst his
tawdriest defamation, and he gave
proofs of real thinking in conditions
which were alien even to any appear
ance of thinking.
