One winter afternoon IN the year
TO- two men were strolling, 10 earnest
conversation, over that space which is
now known as Boston Common. They
were Judge William COTE and Edward
Whalley. famous political refugees
from England. Both celebrated fight

companion, pausing and looking in the

eyes against the sun with bis hand,

where they must needs fight the earth
TO produce sustenance and the red men
to maintain life. But let us 20 and see
what it means"
Approaching the crowd, they stood
BY platform on which strutted a man
flourishing sword, boasting Of his
skill and inviting some one Of those
listening to him to come up and fence
with him.
The insuferable braggartF' ex-

stood beside the feneer's stage. COTE
held in his left hand a cheese wrapped
in a cloth. in bis right a mon with
long handle which he had dipped in
dirty water AS he passed q puddle by
the way. The fencer, strutting about
for moment, turned his back to the
two rusties and when he again faced
them saw an adversary on his stage
equipped rather for housecleaning than
for a clash Of steel

'Tll not get down till / am driven

sThen I'll drive you" replied the
fencer, making pass or, rather,
poke with his sword at the intruder.

the fencer was not able to withdraw It
before his adversary had dabbed bis
face with the mop, For moment he
stood paraIyzed with surprise, looking
at the impudent countryman who had
dared to oppose him with a cheese for
a shield and a mop for a sword. Then,
feeling dirty water dripping down his
neck he made another thrust Again
the judge dexterously received the
sword IN his cheese, and this time his
counterstroke resulted In a poke that
blinded the swordsman with soft mud.
By this time the assembled crowd
were laughing or hooting. On the one
hand stood the fencing master BESIDE
himself with rage and modification,
wiplng the dirt from his eyes with
bis sleeve; on the other, the country
pumpkin, bis cheese lowered, his mop
poised with its offensive end near the
boards. waiting for a renewal Of the
contest AS soon as the bantam
could recover his sight be made an
other thrust For the third time the
point Of his sword penetrated the
cheese, and for the third time the
fencer's face was dabbed with mud,
now almost unacceptable from its
coating. The maddened man dropped

broadsword and started at his enemy
like fury.

that the swordsman was impressed.
Dropping the point OF his weapon, he
stood regarding his singular enemy
with curiosity rather than anger.
''Who are your" cried the fencing
master. you must be either COTE
or Whalley or the devil. for there was
no man IN England who could beat me
