Headed very cunning: too to get i) el to let lem go. He said he would persuade U. . to give Dad a new coat, and as I said before, Dad out of pure fun let hiltt go? and sure tnotlgh he got Dad a new coat and after that Dad declared he was too cunning to live long. The enat indeed was not a very g od one : for it was ealcu lated rather to keep the heat in than the cold out, and like a modern Lady's short dress, rather calculated to absorb disgust in lascivious desires, than to shield her from thecold,or modestly to rover those parts which decency forbids her to a txp - However, stteh as it Was. it pleased Da 1, and when Dad mo' p 1 to the new Farm, jv, vi I' brother Jonathan OVr,.v, aad iave him the apw . ....

I would likewise tell vou how he served Dad aain, when his back was turned.but I expect you have heard the whole story ; however I have heard Dad say a good story was none the worse for being twice told. 1 will therefore tell vou the story but stop I heard some one knock at mv door, and I think by the loud rap it is my wife coming from Mr. Hitchcock's with a young pullet, bred from an egg which Mrs Hitchcock nurtured in her bosom during her incubation 'till the chick mew to maturity ; St however strange, that very circumstance raised the fame of Mr Hitchcock, insomuch that he got himself c lected to the Assembly thereby I say I think it is my wife coming home With that pullet, a1 id if so I shall not be able to get through with the story now, but I win hereafter, so I bid you good bve for the present LITTLE FOOL m P.
