The following story is attributed to SEN
ator Vest, says the Chicago Tribune:
Before the warsthere was a lawyer in
independence, Mo-, who was the counterpart
in appearance Of the pictures Of Pickwick.
He was as fussy in his manner as hen with
a brood of ducks. One day he nearly broke
in the door Of residence by his vigorous
use Of the knocker. The disturbance was
answered by darky, who was frightened
out of his boots as he opened the door.
Where's your masterg Numbered the law
yer, and before the darby could answer the
lawyer repeated his question. Then the
darby replied that he was not in.
sg " L suppose not Numbered the lawyer
again. Well, mind you, now, mind you,
when he comes you tell him want tosee
him-want to see him at once Understand?
Tell him J. Brown Hovey, attorney at law,
wants to see him at once, at once
with that Mr.. Hovey turned and disap-
peared in futter. When the master came
he asked his servant if anyone had called.
The darby was still in his fright, and with
his teeth chattering he replied:
-. Yes, sab, dar was leetle, funny-look-
ing name come, an he said dat I was to tell
you dat Brown j. Hovey, de eternal Lord,
