Peter KeyZerS one OF our respected
tOWnsmen, was the cause Of consider
able excitement in this little berg
Monday night. At bedtime, when he
took his usual trial balance and in
ventOry of stock on hand, there was
found to be missing from his pocket
an item Of $500 and the purse that
contained it. COnSternated visions Of
bold highway robbery, a slick pick
pocket trick or d circus dream fitted
about the family circle and there was
universal sadness and many tears in
the household. Nowhere could the
money be found. Finally Mr.. Keyzers
remembered having stumbled while
walking along the railway track sew
eral hours before and he concluded
that the purse slipped from his pocket
in that fall. \ large crew Of neighbOrs
were at once armed with search war
rants. lanterns and flashlights. Pro
ceeding to the spot above referred to
they found the plump wallet resting
costly in the sand, safe in its solitary
berth. Refreshments came easy after
that. This was d case of misplaced /,
Judgment. that's all. The money
stepped into the wrong bank.
