From ih Mutt nan Herald.
Justin the outeklrtB of Pnugbkeepsie lives
a man by tbe name of Warren, who for
years baa enjoyed a plurality of wives, much
lo tlie disgust ol tbe enure neighborhood.
Wairen ninny year ago married a young
lady and for years they lived on lu perfect
harmony, but one dy eho oickened aud she
and Ut friends supposed she would die;
at this crisis sbe became aoxlons abcnitllbe
welfare of ber husband aud busied hei-self
about in selecting 1,. r rurceMor, who was
to share with Warren the joys of matrimo
nial bliss. The difficulty sho at lust over
ci'me by selecting a woman Bbe thought
worthy ta fitllow in ber footstepg.
Once settled In ber mind ebe desired the
twain lo be made one flesh, even belore
her death, that sbe might be made bnppy
in ber last moments, Tbey wtra accord
ingly marrird by ber bedside, and tbe sick
woman having ber hcarl'x wish gratiScd
turned over to die, but it was not so to bo,
for the, mncb to tbe astoc'.sbmeut ol all par
ties, rapidly grew better, and soon recover
ed ber health, only ta find ber busbaud giv
en to another.
This was more thun tbe woman bergaln-
ed for, but the two females fixed up the mat
ter and it was agreed that tbey would live
In harmony in the same buuse, and thus
tbey lived for years. Both woaiunruisudu
anijly of children; one had six und tbe utLer
five. " Some of these children ore grown uji
men aud women at tbe prudent time.
About six mouths ug the women quar
relled and the husband was cilled ou to
fettle the diliculty, and he espous-il the
cause of the youngeBt wile und it wae de-
teimined on by the two to set the old wii
out of tbe house, which was speedily accom
plished, aud she is oow doing boi.sewoiU in
tha neighborhood, while ILc second wile
