We was all prepared lo go to llu

ii, it was gone
•F- r mercy’s sake,” said I, “gals,
lias .ay id y.mi seen that hnhy.s shiit ?”
Os emir—; none of ’em had-een it,
ami 1 looked again ; hul it ward no

But I'retiing and fuming wouldli't

finished up another shirt, and put.it 01110,

for a start.
Fatih r had homes ed up the doith

good time going-to see Mary Ann mar

that baby's shirt j but to have anything
sperriied away right from under my

‘•What he you thinking shout, rnnm

‘Now, Ilia” says Soph'ony—says
she, “you needn’t say that ” And, as
[ had laid it onto’em a good many times.
I hey was beginning to get vexed, and so
wc had it buck aril forth all about that
baby's shirt, till w e got to ihe wedding.
Seeing company kind o’ put it out n
my u.mu, and 1 was gullin' good natur

he ilidn’i know wlmt lie was about ; lie
ihought 'twas his mistake, he gave mary
nis lell hand Tliut wouldn’t do. ony way
bin by ibis lime they didn't know what
they was about, nod Mary Ann jined
her led hand with his left, then the
left with his right, then both their left
hands again, till I was all in a frigil,
and itioaght they would never gel lixed.
Mary Ann looked as red as a Turkey ;
and (o hiiike matters worse she began
it cough—in ram it off, I s’pose— and
called for a glass o r waier. The mm
