; Whtn tha Englith Lady Finiihad.
A bygone generation witnessed aa
acrimonious controversy In the Irish
family of O'Couor lu County Koseom-
nion a to the rltftit of any branchjof
the ancient race to spell tho nnme
tbus-wlth one "ii." That right, II
was maintained, was bold only ly tba
O'Conor Don na bend of the house.
Ho prolonged was the content between
the partlwins of the O'Conor end
O'Connor titles that It was called the
"N-lciw" (standing for "omlleits") cor
respondence: ' Finally the question wai
referred to- Sir J. Uornard burke, the
I'later king of anna. UK decision
coincided with a dwlsloo ia a certuln
other iimtipr-niiincly, that much might
be Mild on either aide. The two de
puting fainlllva had a com won origin,
king of Coiuinught, and could with
propriety and In accordance with tra
dition (pell the name one way or tb
otlier. Fortined by thla "award," the
two families have continued to apell
their name wtib one "o" up to the
present boui.
" Equally flnu on the question aa to
bow bla imuie ahould be spelled wax
the witness In a caae tried In the
king't bench a few year ago, Asked
bla name, Ills prompt reply was "John

"pelt your tame with or without an

queried. "I aald," replied tbo mother,

now thoroughly exasperated lady, "1

The second Incident to which we re
fer is this. Here also there waa "a

samo of r.uothur party. lu brief, she
bad bought a piilr of sleeve links for
her fiance when tba shopman asked,

atuted thus;
She Oh, yea; I forgot Engrave a
