SEEN IN A DREAM.
Th* es • Cold Cola After Twelve Years. ! In 1868 Lizzie M. Trask of Vienna. Me., was dress-making in Lewiston She catne into possession of a gold 25eent piece with a hole in it. This she showed as a curiosity to her friends, At that time she had a little niece 2 years old, daughter of Jonathan P. Trask, naw the wife of Leman Butler, trader in Mount Vernon. The little coin Lizzie orice showed to her niece Addie when she was a very small girl, telling her that she would give it to her when she was old enough to take care of it. Lizzie died twelve years ago. In her possession was a lady’s wallet with several compartments. This wallet her mother used until her death seven years ago. Then James, a brother of Lizzie, had it, and it has been in constant use ever since, either by him or his wife The little gold coin was never seen Softer Lizzie’s death or before for several years by her friends, and its whereabouts was not known, and in fact its existence had passed from their memory. A few days ago Mrs. Butler made her parents a visit, stopping with them several nights.
While there, says the Augusta (Me.) New Age, she dreamed that she saw her Aunt Lizzie’s wallet, and that it was faced with green and in a certain compartment she found the little gold coin which she saw so many years ago. On telling her mother her dream she was informed that Lizzie did have a wallet which answered her description, and that her Uncle James had it. The wallet Addie had never seen. She then visited her uncle and told her dream to her aunt, who laughed at the idea of anything being in it other than what she and her husband had placed there. But on Addie’s earnest solicitation she produced it, and as soon as Addie saw it she exclaimed. ‘ ‘That is the same wallet that I saw in my dream,” and pointed out the compartment that held the treasure. She then took a needle, and running it to the bottom she drew forth a newspaper, and in it was, indeed, a gold quarter with a hole in it, wrapped, no doubt, by the hand of her aunt at least twelve years before, where-it had lain all this time, without the knowledge of any one until Addie’s dream caused it to be brought forth.
