Buried the Chees
In the suburbs of Boston lives, a merchant whd is something of an epicure, and not infrequently he bringsToine with him from the city on his return from business some tid-bit or other. Not long scince he found some particularly choice Roquefort cheese, and the day being Saturday he took a piece home with him for his Sunday dinner. Arrived at the station he was met by his man with the buggy, and in driving home he put the bundle bn the bottom of the carriage, vyhere it lay forgotten until the next day. At dinner he remembered the delicacy,and sending for Patrick, he asked what he had done with the package of cheese which he left on the bottom of the buggy. “Was that chase sor?" responded Patrick, in evident surprise. “Yes of course it was cheese. What did you do with it?” “Well, upon my soul.sor.it never intered me comprehension that it was chase, It smelled that powerful, sor, that I thought shure it were dead, sor, and I wint and buried it, mainin’ no harm.”
