when it went Henry went also. Ger
tain parties limited rather broadly
that they thought Henry had taken
quite liking to the heroine of the
play and that Norridgewock would
know him no more. But his return
Saturday with his family shows con-
clusively that they entirely misjudged
his motive for leaving town and we
wouldn't be surprised to hear that

were circulated.
