the groom eject, Silas Cogdell, that
the marriage of his daughter would
have to be postponed in as much as

wedding clothes, which would cost
twenty-five dollars. WhereupOn SiIas

sary $25.O0 for the wedding trous-
seau, which offer was accepted. and
the money was duly paid over to the
bride elect.

$500 the dusky maid informed her !
father, Sim VIM, that it would
take $500 more to purchase the out
tit, and this being communicated to
love-sick Silas, he again generously
