EMBARRASSING MOMENTS The following interesting article written by an Exeter citizen appear ed in the St. Marys Journal-Argus. Dear Editor:— Wai very much amused at the ar ticle in a recent issue of the Jour nal re embarrassing moments in the' course of a lifetime, which few hu mans escape. It inspires me to give a couple of instances in which I will have to include some of my boy hood chums of the village of Wood ham baqk in the early 80’s. Now what could be more embar rassing than to be caught in the toy of a large pear tree on a dark night with the owner standing at the bot tom shouting, “Now I’ve got. you.” It sure was embarrassing and yet his "shouting gave the other culprits a chance to get away with the pock ets full of grapes and plums and making noise enough^to induce the owner to start in pursuit. But he changed his mind. Fie evidently thought a bird in the hand was worth two in the bush, although lit erally there was only one in the bush at. this time. It also was very evident he was soon going to be in no gentle hand from the threats, tc come down or he would come up and throw me down, what chance would a ten or twelve year old urchin liaVe However, “how true” where there’s a will there’s a way. Now a very high picket fence was in close prbx- iirtity to this tree, being the line to the adjoining property. So a dar ing leap—if you cleared the fence all night, if you landed on one of those pickets or broke a leg not sc good. However the leap was success fully made, much to the chagrin of the would-be captor who lost much time in trying to scale the fence whi'le Ho time was lost by the boy in making good his escape and joining his chums and enjoying a share of the spoils they had managed to es cape with. As I look back at It now I often wonder how the boys of that day could attempt such things on their Sunday School teacher. I am sure it did not coincide with his teachings.,. The Village of Woodham was al ways considered a very sober and honest community. Of course a few miscliievious boys—but what village is without them. But to come to Embarrassment Number Two. When two innocent looking boys applied to Mr. Neeley the Post Master,, for their parents’ mail he gave us a rare smile and said, in just a minute, a& he was al so the general merchant, as well as P. M. and with a great many in the store we patiently waited his pleas ure which proved to be a sudden grip on our coat collars and the rapping of our heads together and giving each of us a swift Rick some place, • he very forcibly showed us out the door much to the amusement of the many there awaiting their mail. All this on account of Mr. Neeley":, faith in the honesty and integrity of the villagers, as it was no uncom mon thing for him to leaves boxes of soap, barrels of sugar, in fact anything not perishable out on tlm large varandali in front of his stoit for weeks at a time until such time as he desired to use them. It did not take the boys long to learn from some of the older people that the whole of Mr. Neeley’s platform did not belong to him at all as a place for storing goods as it was entirely on the Queen’s Highway (Queen Victoria then reigning) and the idea was instilled in our minds that if we wanted some sugar all we had to do was find access to one of those barrels. This was easy after Mr Neeley retired for the night, and by placing one of the soap ooxes on Jop which was often the case, it was some time before Mr. Neeley discov ered what happened to his sugar But I am sure he must have noticed a falling off in the sale of his con fectionery as every boy, yes and girls too, were well supplied with taffy for some time. Would the par ents not wonder where the sugai came from? Oh, no, the parent: were not let into the secret oi' we might have fared much worse than at the hands of Mr. Neeley. We had a rendezvous of our own, even tc the necessary utensils. I am "hot sure how the other lad, he being a minister’s son, fared at home after the news of Mr. Neeley’s treatment of us and the reason. But speaking for myself, I found Mr. Neeley very considerate in comparison to what dad did. A cushion seat in school would have been appreciated for a week after. A great many parents were puzzled for some time as to why their boy did not care to go to the post office sister was generally delegated and those who had no sister, probably persuaded some one else but in any of Mr. Neeley’s convivial moods it was ajways, laughed about when he said he wasn’t sure if he had the right ones, but he intended to treat all alike as they came in, conse quently the non-apearance of the boys in thep store for some time.
