suggested that she would like to have
a drink of water. At once the party
started to invade the grove In search
Of water The party had not gone
but q short distance when one Of the
fair ones of the party exclaimed,
"There's a ghost, this place must
surely be haunted!' At this the
whole party stopped stock still in the
center Of the path. After a while
one of the young ladies calculated,
"Nhose afraid, land away she scamp

waslsoon reached and an abundance
of Adams Ale WAS INDUCED In.
