DURING) that period of the good old 'long
time ago,' when the old pools of prejudice
and error were beginning to be stirred up
by the light of advanciug knoyledge.dratvii
d from wog's experience, there flourished
in the eastern part of the State of Massachm
setts, whale and hearty old fellow, known
for miles around as the jolliest old soul in
the country, and who by virtue of an old
warrant which hejeceived during that hero
, in age which immediately succeeded the
declaration of Peace, claimed and received
by unanimous acclamation the elevated
title of 'major/
The major was a good'specimen of a 'fine
old Yankee getitlemart,', bethg well to do in
the world; and withal very honest and con
scientious. It was late in the fall; the old
— gentlemo%llo got his capacious barn well
filled with, 11-that a Yankee barn generally'
contains—he had everything stacked up for
.71nter, arid as the clef - sing tiff of affairs, he
halPone morning butchered a noble flied
critter.' The skin was. rolled up, and differ
ent pieces cut to the right size, and laid
away for packing down. As the major,sur
veyed the rich fruits of his labor, Iris' heart
was so filled with gratitude dint Ire determi
ned to give a party—a real jolly party—surth
an one as Only himself could give . ; a good
supper to a good chosen cempany, and, to
cap all, a merry , long evening. To this end.
an invitation was sent to some dozen or so
of the 'major's choice companion to come
and have a trentline.'
Amonglit , l the mgr's qualities—and he
had a gociti loamy them—there was but
