The Moved.

Boston Post. A Hartford gentleman traveling In Colorado found tacked upon one of the poles of an abandoned house the following notice, which tells the whole story of the discomfort of living upon government land and the joy of securing (by fair means or foul) eastern capital upon which to retire: 600 miles to wool. 6,009 miles to water 6 inches to hell. God bless our little home. We have negotiated a loan and gone home to live with our wife’s folks.
