A trunk tournament, in which pygmy price's play an important part— |
ami we add with emphasis that he who hesitates loses a good trunk It
doesn’t matter whether you need a trunk just now —come and see th*m
auy way. All ot these trunks are heavy canvas covered, strong hard
wood slat's on all—some solo leather bound, some iron bound, some have
two leather straps, heavy brass locks, some linen, some two frays with
hat box compartment, two bottoms, one of which is sheet iron, and not
one in the lot but will defy the fiercest luggage smasher that ever flung,
kicked or jumped on an unoffending trunk. Some of these trunks are
great, handsome, swell.

Daily Short Story

THE BTOBY “ '
IF A WITCH
Did you never hear of Anne Hoi!
we!!, the witch of Salem? No? It's
an odd story. My grandfather gave
it to my father, and my father gave
it to me. What possessed the people
of those days is a wonder to all of us
now. I’ve thought that the devil plant
ed the superstition in them for liis own
purposes, but I, being a Scotch I’res
bytertnn, am myself accounted a bit
cranky in my religious notions.
Anne Holliwell wlieu she was eight
een years old was accused of witch
craft. Mark Spooner, a big, strong
fellow, wanted to marry her, but lie
was a wicked one they said lie had
secret meetings with Satan at midnight
in the wood and Anne would have
nothing to do with lilm. Moreover,
she loved .loci 11 n llitt, son of Deacon
11allltt, who went off with the Roger
Williams people. Joel was the reverse
of Spooner, being a small, pale looking
young man, but with a very Intellec
tual countenance. He was not in fa
vor with the congregation, however,
because he openly denied the right of
the church to burn out a woman’s
tongue with a rodliot iron. Indeed, so
great was the Indignation against his
heretical protest that Joel came near
paying the penalty of Ills rashness
with his life.
Now, 1 am not going to vouch for
what I Intend to toll you. I’ll give it
as I got it from others and their inter
pretation of it. If you choose to take
different views concerning It, I shall
have no objection.
Aline Holliwell was accused, os 1
have said, of witchcraft. My grand
father used to say that Mark Spooner
was at the bottom of the accusation
with a view to getting Anne into his
power, but this was not current at the
time. However this be, Anne was
tried and sentenced to be burned.
When the fagots were prepared and
Anno was being bound to the stake, a
tall man stepped out of a wood nearby
and advanced to the party. He wore a
purple doublet, bordered with red, and
red hose, while on tits bead was a eon
leal hat with a single feather In It.
There was something so singular In his
appearance that the people turned
from Anne Holliwell, tho stake and
tlm fagots to look at him.
"What do you with the wench?”
asked the stranger.
"We’re going to burn her. She's a
witeli.”
“A witch?” The speaker threw back
his head and, displaying white, pointed
teeth, gave a laugh. At lifst it was a
simple ironical ha! ha! Then it had the
ring of a trumpet in it. Then came
back an echo, though there was no cm
inenee or cliff to send it.
"Who are you?” asked one of the
pillars of the church who were eon
dueling tho execution. “You strangely
resemble Mark .Spooner, but you are
not Mark Spooner, for Mark is but
twenty-live, while you you may bu
young or you may bo old.”
“No matter who I am. I have come
for the wench.”
“Stand off!” cried several of the most
pious men present, who laid no mind
Unit the Lord's will should be inter
fered with, lmt tile stranger, drawing
bis sword, stepped up to Anne liolli-
V ell and, cutting the eonls, led her
away toward tho wood. Homo said
that sparks were seen to fly from the
point of tile sword, some that bis face
suddenly from being quite handsome
became so demoniacal that every man
gave way instinctively before him. Ah
for Anne, from the first she shrank
away from him, but be took her by the
wrist, and, though lie seemed to make
no exertion, lie dragged her away from
the fagots, after which she walked be-
I side him passively, as though under a
! spell. In lliis way be took her to tha
edge of the wood, where the two dis
appeared, no one daring to tollow.
An hour later Anne Holliwell, ac
companied by Joel Hallitt, came back
into the town. She was not further
molested by the people. It was not
generally known why, though the mas-'
ter of ceremonies who was to have
presided at her execution, after a long
interview with tier, gave out that she
could not have been a witch because
the devil laid tried to rescue her mid
bad failed. My grandfather claimed
to have got the story of what happened
alter she disappeared with the stranger
from one of her children.
Joe! Ilallitt on the night before the
expected execution. Instead of giving
way to bis grief. Spent tlic hours on
his knees praying that the people
might lie absolved from the supersti
lions of witchcraft and persecution.
When the hour of tiie execution came,
in; was seized with an impulse to go
and save the girl. Seeing a sword
standing in the corner whose hilt was
shaped like a cross, lie seized it and
sallied forth. His course lay through
the wood, and after entering it he met
the stranger, leading Anne. Approach
ing 1 belli, lie asked wldther they were
going. Anne gave her lover an ap
pealing look, and the man glared at
him with such a demoniacal counte
nance that Joel instinctively held up
the sword in bis baud between himself
and the stranger. Whether it was the
cross on the hilt or an angelic expres
sion that Anne afterward declared ap
pea red on Joel's countenance, the strau
gejy dreak-Laek and. crouching, slowly
THR&fcRtJNsWtOK DAILY NEWS
shrank away. Joel, now?believing'.that
power had been given hinr.in answer to
his prayer to save Aime, i.st ill holding
up the dagger, drove the (stranger to
the thickest part of tlie wood,\where
he disappeared.
My father always said, that my
grandfather believed that Mark Spoon
er arranged,with the ,devil to get Anne
Holliwell for him in return for his
own soul.
