an established one. The notebook or
Schoolmaster Joseph Ilawley of North-
ampton, Mass., when he started on a
trip to Boston was filled With such
varied items as: "Captain Partridge, a
dial aud a dish kettle;" "Son Joseph,
speckled red ribbon, whistles, buckles
and fishhooks;" "A shllliug worth of
plumb and Fplce;" "Two psalters, a ba
son aud a uart pot." In "Old Paths
and Legends of the New England Bor
der" Kntherine M. Abbott says'that It
was the same even as late as Judge
Lyman's day. Ills daughter, Mrs.
Lesley, writes of It in "Recollections of
My Mother:"
There were no expresses then, aud
so when It was known In the village,
of Northampton that Judge and Mrs.
Lyilmu wcre golns to Itodlon-nnd they
always took palnsi to make It known-
throng of neighbors were coming in
the WUole evening before not only to
take an affectionate leave, but to bring
parcels of every size and shape and
commissions of every variety.
One came with a dress she wanted
to send to a daughter at school; one
brought patterns of dry goods, with a
request that Mrs. Lyman would pur-
, ' chase and bring home dresses for a
family of five. Ami would she go to
the orphan asylum and see If a good
child of ten could be bound out to an-
other neighbor? Would Mrs. Lyiuun
bring the child buck with her?
The neighbors walked Into the li
brary, where the packing was going
on. and when all the family trunks
were filled my father called out heart
ily, "Here, Hiram, bi In;; down, another
trunk from the garret the largest you
can find to hold all these parcel:;!'
stove."
"Another trunk, Ilham," said my fa
ther, "anl ask the driver to wait five
minutes."
Those were the times when people
could wait five minutes for a family so
well known and beloved. Our driver
had only to whip up his horses a little
faster.

Curious Incident In the
Career of
Novelist Crockett.
S. R. Crockett, the novelist, told a
rather remarkable story of an incident
that befell him In his early writing
days, before fame and ftfrtune had
come to him and while he struggled
011 fop a ,lvlng- At tuat tlme he was
?b""e,d towrlte ery small sums
indeed, and among the publications to
whch be contl.lbutL,a c0Umns and half
colmnns was the St. James' Gazette,
a London penny evening newspaper,
One morning the postman brought to
Mr. Crockett a letter from the editor
of the St. James' Gazette containing
a small check as payment for a con
tribution. Mr. Cckett knew that
nothing was due to him. that be had
been paid for ail his articles, and re
markable man he did the check up In
an explanatory note and returned it to
the editor.
The next day back came the check
from the editor remarkable man
with a note saying It was due. The
St. James' Gazette had published an
article from the pen of Mr. Crockett
which had not been paid for: hence
' the check. Again -Mr. Crockett re
j markable man returned the check,
j and still the remarkable editor refor
j warded It. this time with the article
cut out of the columns of the St
James' Gazette.
Now comes the curious feature of
the incident. When Mr. Crockett clap
ped eyes on the article, he was aston
ished to find It one of his dreams
materialized. One night, going to bed
extra tired, he drfamcd that a good
Idea for a St. James' Gazette column
had occurred to him; that he then and
there Bat down, wrote it and posted It
