It was as I expected. Wash me under a hogs

he was from the Emporium of Fashion, and
eavortedy amongst metropolitan society.
(That want the word he used,' I reckon it
means the same thing.)
Well, gentleman, I tell you I relt quite
hostill and warm at Jhisitate of afluirs, and
for fear I'd m.-lt and run away into oil, I went
'down to the creek, to 'shed flannel' and cool
