a visit to a piomincnt merchant in
Boston, was asked by the merchant if
he knsw a boy In 'Methuen whom lie
could recommitnd lo work in bis stoic.
At fiyst the gentleman could think of
none for ho knew tiouc but a faithful,
honest boy would suit the thrifty
merchant. At Its ;;th, however, lie
edict! to mind n boy of excellent
character in Id:: neighborhood, but
feared he would hardly do, an bin pa
rents were very poor and iia hud no
education or other advantages to fit
him fo,- such a position.
Put tbe description of the boy’s
babita p'cased tho merchant so much
that he handed Ihe geutlcmati $1 Ob
with which to pay the boy’s lure to
Boston by stupe, arc! requested him
to send I he hid to the city', and if on
a personal interview all should not
prove satisfactory, he would pay his
faro back home agt-in. The gentle
man, ns retjuo ded, visited the boy’s
parent"., and statisg the merchant’s
proposals, advised them to send the
boy for t rlr.l. He then gave him the
! SI,OO which wr.; sent to pay his Lae
to Boston rarl departed.
Under similar cuai instances, nine

The boy thought it was all up with

he managed lo reply, “I am very sor

I thought I would walk and save the

Placing hia hand gently Upon the
boy’s head, the merchant replied,
“My little man you did just right.
Come home vvilh me and get some

That boys has grown to manhood,
and has since become widely known

remberton mills at Lawrence, a bank

finest farms in Massachusetts.
