It was a noose mode of a thick coil of woman's golden hair. From that time to this I have never again seen Kenneth Lambert, nor baa anyone else.

At dinner his wife re monstrated with him for shouting so loud about hiding his hoe. “I am certain," said she, “the neighbors have heard you, and someone has already stolen it.” Struck with the remark, the man returned to the field, and, sure enough, the hoe was gone.
