Lines for Tom C., an old school mate who
died young.
Have often passed the spot, Dear Toro, near old school
house where we bad the scramble with Big Joe in the deep
snow. Tisa old shanty near that place is torn down. You
always said you would never let a big boy impose on Sandy.
Part of a story of early school days. Scene No 1.—Court
room, Shane's Hotel,Blyth. No, 2.—Gathering of the different
nationalities into the court room, No. 3.—Old school master
angry—Old. Grandfather Cain in a passion—his By Joe age
18, got hurted—Two other boys, Nicholas and Smike both
age 11, got the best of him in the deep snow and made him
cry aloud, two at wan take wan off. Mr. T. H. is the magis-
trate. N. and S. find that they have forgotten the register—
they have 9 miles to run, 4.1 there and of course 4?• miles
back. They start out with collie dog, Trip. at their heels,
and are back in time for the trial which commenees thus,
with daddy Cain's evidence:—"Begorra; you would think it
was the roaring of Sebastopol to hear thim Bys comming
home from skool at night, Sure they called my By Joe a
fenian and kicked hint over the fince and he had to get a rail
to defind himself." The register comes in here and proves
by the old school master that Smikes was not at school that
day, The case is ended. Nicholas and Smike won with a
great Hubbub between Scotch and Irish.—And I will sweep
eyerything before me with such prices as these, 20 dozen
travellers samples, lay down and stand up collars, sizes from
14 to 17, 2 for 15 cents, just half price. 7 dozen travellers
samples of white shirts, all sizes, regular price $1.00 to $1.25,
on Saturday 50c each, also large lot of colored shirts from
50c to 75e each, regular price $1.00 to $1.25. 6 dozen trav-
ellers' samples of Mens Braces, 25e to 40e, some of them the
whole sale price were 500 to 75c, also steel rod umbrellas at
50c, 75c, $1,00, the latter goes up with the new patent
spring, worth $1:25, New Hate, New Neck Ties, right from
the Manufactures, :Boys', Youths', mens', suits, also a new
lot of Boots and Shoes for Boys, Youths, andmon.
