th* gentle stroking of his chin whiskers,
that the Major was engagol upon a legend
of fouucr days or a personal reminleoenre
of some kind. Nor wo* 1 disappointed, fol
after greetings were exchanged I was treat
ed to the heel of a story concerning the
champion snorer ot Georgia. As near as I
can remember, the Major resumed his dis
course In about the following words :

The room had a window here and one ther*
and a dtxrr here (here th* Major drew an
Imaginary diagram of the house with his
stick). After dinner my fattu'i -In-law went
off to the Held, for everything worked on
that place, white and black. Jones C. went
Into the preacher's room for a nap. He
curled up In bed with his black coat oq. Af
