A woman accosted him: what, you

her bidding, they supped together, and
he was sent to bed.
On awakening next morning he dis
covered that his clothes and his money
were gone, and so, too, was auntie. In
his despair he rushed to the window in
his nightshirt, crying out his misfor-
tune to the passersby.y
A woman with an infant in her arms
responded to his appeal. 81 will 60
