SICK OF BARGAIN
Webster Farmer Gets
Widow and 3 Children
Through Matrimonial
Cad" Now Wishes
He Hadn't

Lewiston, Me-, Aug. e3.-Ddward
Trip. 30 years old. who lives on the
Pleasant Ridge road, Webster. answer
ed the advertisement of Mrs. Louisa
Pierce. 81 years old. widow. of Ha-
verhill. Mass, who wanted nice
man who would like to get married.
Trip said in his letter that he was
filled with love and pity" for the
widow. A week ago Saturday night
he received a telephone call from Lis
bon Falls, from his brother.
Mrs. Pierce had brought her family
to Maine and came to the Falls. where
the letters were mailed from. Trip
harnessed his span of lively stepping
horses and brought back to the farm
on this road:
Mrs. Louisa Pierce.
Ruth Pierce. nine years old.
Helen Pierce. seven years old.
Milton Pierce. five years old.
But Mr.. Trip decided that while
his heart may have held love and pity
for the engaging widow and her three
children, the old farmstcad would be
him without the ready made family,
and matrimony at present is out of
the question.
In the meantime Mrs. Pierce and
the children haven't been having the
sweetest visit in the world, according
to the stories she is claimed to have
told the reighborhood.
A few days ago, the weather was
considered a first rate subject to talk
over. You could curse it without in
Turing anyone's feelings and it was
safe ground to maintain friendships
on. but now it's the widow and her
three children.
Three letters were exchanged be-
tween Trip and Mrs. Pierce. and
while the farmer says that he didn't
invite her to his farm, Mrs, Pierce
believes her notice that mo trihers
need apply" was ample warning.
Mrs. Pierce says that she can't leave
because she has no place to go and no
money to get there with. but she
doesn't believe that man whose
heart is overhowing with "love and
pity" would hide the sugar on ner
This, she alleges, was done at the
Tripn farm.
"All that Mr. Trip has bought is a
bag Of -four says Mrs Pierce "He hid
the sugar on us. and all that we get
comes from the neighhors I can't get
away from here because ! haven't anv
money. and all want Mr. Trpp to do
is to keep me here two or three weeks
until get on my feet"
Mrs. Pierce went to neighhoring farm
house Sunday to telephone to the select
men to assist her, but was dissuaded
from the course.
In the meantime Mr.. Trip started cut
ting his hay. The three children romped
and played in the sunshine when 1t was
fair and made mud pies in the road after
showers. Happy as larks, they are grow
Ing tan-faced and healthier. Ruth, the
eldest, visits nearby farms with her
mother.
Just what the outcome will be interests
not only the people who live on this road
but the people Of sabattus, who have
heard about the visit Of Mrs. Pierce. One
point seems certan-Mrs. Pierce wants
a husband and Mr.. Trip doesn't caro-
to he the one.
