was forbidden to take or give a copy of

attention t'o the music, and on leaving
the church noted down the en tire piece.
A few days afterward lie heard It a sec

' A Boston correspondent assures is
that the .follotr lug, one' of the really
`funny anecdotes (hilt Portsmouth; N.

appeared in print :
During Mr. \V.'s residence in that,
city, in his younger days, there Wtis a •
1 furniture dealer, named Jrilkins, doing
business hi the town, who II was, a very
well informed, as well to ainbitiou:S

on the corner of 11 igh and Summer sta.
