A Civil War veteran, several times
representative from his swn district
to the New Hampshire Legislature,
and at one time speaker Of the Houss.
had just returned home from a clos
ing session Of the legislature, at which.
says a writer in the Manchester Union,
the law pertaining to the right Of way
to pedestrians had been passed.
He was crossing the street from his
Office one day soon after his return,
when an electric car came bounding
along. The motorman, alive to the
danger OF the veteran, made frantic
efforts to attract his attention, and
when they failed, shouted:
Look out. majorl II you don't get
or the track I shall run over you
The mayor stopped stock-stilI In the
middle Of the track.
IF you do, young man, you'll hang
for IL" he said. firmly.

the colt went lame. Some OF the shout

Purdy tried all the remedies he

finally he determined to graft a live
