Pedigree

"I have blue blood" said Hully
Chez, while seated on mortgaged
tor; 81 have princely pedigree. and
low-born people l abhor; with king
ly blood in every vein, cheap
descent gives me pain; my fathers
camped on England's plain with
William H., the Conqueror." ! lis
tened while he told the tale of great
ones in his line of sires, of barons
in their coats of mail, and Homers
with immortal Tyres, and to the laun-
dry man l said, mo wonder Chez
has naughty tread; his pedigree is
writ in red-that sort of thing the
world admires" "Ods prunes," the
laundryman replied, "he views with
scorn plain gents and skirts; he is
SO full of misfit pride it often chokes
him up and hurts; of forbears grand
he'll talk all day, but | would moth
ing caustic say if he would only call
and pay my bill for laundering his
shirts. I've chased this Hully Chez
around, while bitter sweat ran down
my face; behind him | have paved
the ground like some prize sprinter
in race; when l pursue him
through the mud | care not for his
azure blood, for sires who lived be-
fore the food think his conduct a
disgrace. We're mostly low-born
skates in town, but still we do
things up in style; when we owe
coin we plank it down and try to do
it with smile; I've no respect for
princely wight if he won't pay his
bills on sight; I'm going after Chez
tonight and chase him round an
other mile"

brought by S. +. Cotti and others

pany. which held title as trustee to
certain apple orchards at Green
Ridge, Nd, which was being exploited

tention of the trust company, which

counsel Charles F. Carusi and Hayden
Johnson of the local bar and Bartlett
Poe & Clagett Of Baltimore.
