THE following whimsical cir
cumftahceHappened fome time ago
in Kilkenny. A man who was mar
ried to a very sickly woman grew
enamoured with a young girl who
lived in his neighbourhood who
consented to grant him all he could
wish provided fie would give her a
promise in writing to marry her on
the immediate demile of his rib; in
consequence of which Mr. Snip
palsed the following curious note
of hand:
c< In two clays after the demise
ot my present wife, I promtfe to
marry Mary Mouran or order, va
lue received, under a penalty of
nfty pounds sterling. Given under
my hand, this 16111 May, 89.
Jer. Sulivan.”
Shorly Mouran received
this note flie died; leaving it en
dorsed to a female friend, who also
chanced to take a fever and die
before the man r s wife: however/
on her sick bed, she also endorsed
the note and gave it to a coufni
whom the man absolutely married
agreeably to endorsement, in two
days after the death of his wife.
Our correspondent aflures us he
k.iew the tranlaetion well, and that
the man and his wife are now div
ing happily in the city of Kilkenny.
WHEN Mr. Orme, theHifto
rian of the war in India , resided irt
the Export wafehoufe of Madras ,
one Davison, who a<sted under
him, one day at breakfaft was asked
by Ormf, of what profeftion his
father was ? Davison replied
that he was a jaddler . <c Ahd
pray,*’ said Orme, <c why did he
not bring you up a saddler V* I
was always whimsical” replied*

my fortune in the East India corn-;

continued he, C 4 of what profeflloa
