One afternoon last week an easy
talking scoundrel called at the home

and representing himself to be con-
tractor and builder, having lot Of
work to do there, engaged board for
himself and his mechanics, four or five
in number, who would be on next day
in time for dinner. The bargaining
as to price of board for the party was
made by Mrs. Rittenhouse, the fellow
agreeing to very liberal terms. He
got his supper, lodging and breakfast,
and then struck out to begin his
work" promising to bring his gang
with him to dinner. He was fraud,
Just low-down boarding house beat,
and the bountiful and substantial din
ner 80 nicely prepared by Mrs. R. was
that much added to the loss of the big
supper and breakfast he had disposed
of. No doubt he has played the same
rascally game in half dozen towns
since then, unless, happily, he has
fetched up in Jail. Democrats duer-
tiser.
