'" It would have beep quite as well to have affirmed that Mount Monadnock was west of the village,. or that in the north as far as one could roe, the spearlike • pines pricked do blue sky. True, some would venture to say that he was a disgrace to the village; and other:, forgetting that God was on earth, would say that he would be better off dead ; that he was no use in the world ; that be was but u brute, and that the last spark or truth and maidessl had died out in his soul.
