Last Thursday afternoon Ed. Reed and Wm. Sampson went to Clifty for the purpose of catching a mess of fish, or, at least that is supposed to have been their mission. However, it is a mortal fact that they didn’t propose to be laughed at for bringing no fish home, and accordingly a kit of white fish was quietly placed in the buggy just before they started. Of course the boys deny putting the fish into the buggy, but then Tom Gates, Ervin Eomingcr and George Welsh wouldn’t be mean enough to play a joke upon anybody, and they were the only ones present when Ed. and Billy started. However, they say that George Welsh talks in his. sleep, and that a few nights since he murmured something about “putting that coat over the kit of fish, so they can’t see ’em.”
