MY LADY OF DREAMS
BESIDE MY STUDY FIRE
From Pail Mall Gazette
From Pail Mall Gazette

My ladye steals from out my dreams
Beside my study fire;
The squirting light now duils, now CLEANS
Some drowsy sprite that wakes, it seems,
To grant me my desire.
The echoes die upon the street,
The shadows climb the WALL
My ladya steals into her seat,
so high it is her little feet
Sarce reach the floor at all,
My ladye in the freight sits
And gravely watches me;
About her mouth in mischief fits
soft, sweet smile that much befits
A ladye fair as she
A little curl on brow has strayed
Bright gold on driven snow,
There never was so sweet a maid
In figured dimity arrayed,
A-shimmer in the glow.
My ladye sits my fire beside,
And wondrous fair is she;
Until its light has waned and died.
And dawn has looked through window wide,
She keeps a watch with me.
My ladye of my idle dreams,
| watch the love that ever beams
In her dear eyes content;
My ladye born in musng BRAIN
So radiantly fair
| loathe the morn that sees her wane;
count the hours till once again
She choose my study chair.

The Ration Gazette grows pathetic over the fact that

Burns Property of Father Of Young
Woman by Whom Discarded.

John Sewers, Familiarity known here
as sunday Sewers. was tried before
Justice j. r Burke Wednesday for
burning three stacks of hay that be-
longed TO Mr.. E. p. Holland. who lives
III Bethany township. The hay was
burned on the first day of May.
Justice Burke asked John before the
trial came on ii he set fire to the hay.
ionn SAID he did, that he would own
up ike Il gentleman; and when he was
questioned further as to why he did it
be said that Mr.. Holland had promised
him n of his daughters and she got
married then he promised him another
daughter, but would not let him have
her. land You know that'll put the
devil in a man. said John. Even so.
But Sewers would have escaped
without falling into the hands of teh
law had it not been for some threats
he is said to have made, for Mr.. Hol-
lane was loath to prosecute him. Some
one told Sewers that he would be tried
at the Ma term of court and be sent
TO the chain gang. but as no such con-
tingency arose John allowed. after
u adjourned, that he would burn
something else for Mr.. Holland. At
least that was noised abroad, where
upon Mr.. Holland appealed to the
strong arm of the law. Two witnesses
were put up to prove that these threats
had beer made land John was sent to
Jail in default of $500 bond required.
John is a half-witted fellow who is
commonly harmless enough, but it is
thought his obsession i'm this instance
might lead him to do Mr.. Holland some
hurt.-Statesville Landmark.
