tk tattered page has come' to this
office from a .Western subscriber, Mr.
William •Sproat, bearing the heading,
"A New Tale of Olden Times, or
Huron Twenty Years Ago." 'It is a
bill printed by The Huron Expositor
in 1870, to announce the story thee
was scheduled to run in its columns.
The unknown writer, in the intro-
duction, says:
!And now my Dear Sir, here I am
in the village of Seaforth, County of
Huron, Ontario, feeling . almost as
much at hone as if I was still, in the
Stewarty'of Kirkcubright, Every day
I hear the broad Scotch homely
tongue • of Borgne an•d Girthon, ar
the broader dialect of Ayrshire anti
Roxtborough, interspersed with the
genuine Irish 'brogue, the peculiar
tongue of Yorkshire, or the heavier
speech of the Dutch. Farther west
and south I amt told there are large
settlements from the. Hri'ghlands of
S•cgtland. I have made arany ac-
quaintances and formed some warm
friendships since my 'arrival here;
and I have undertaken to write a
tale for the Huron Expositor entit-
led, "'Huron Twenty Years Ago.
You will recollect nay taste, I.may
almost say passion for describing
things and delineating character,
which I possessed from early boyhood
and the real pleasure and satisfaction
I felt when thus employed. My youth-
ful tastes I have never lost. I de-
rive as much satisfaction front such
work at forty - as �'•I did at twenty.
Judge then with what alacrity I ac-
eepted• ••the offer: But hone •this- eanre
about, . and how I obtained my ac-
quaintances and friends=hips I will
explain in another chapter." .
A typical portion of the tale magic
up in the -main part .of dialogue, is
as follows:
"But whats ado at the corner?"
Here my attention was drawn by a:
crowd of men opposite Carmiehael's
hotel, two of whom were gesticulat-
ing and talking very earnestly, while
the onlookers seemed to enjoy the

School pupils will have a, load
lifted from their minds this year •
when they leant that a holiday
on the ,King's birthday is. a :cer-

ways hoped for the best but
were never sure whether it would
be work or play until the last •
minute. The King's Birthday is,
as usual, on June 3rd, which,
however; , falls on a Saturday.
