Mr. Joel Spry concluded tho bargain u'ilh some apparent hesitation, but seemed re solved to make the best of a bad case. Ev ery night, Spry's barometer was pit't'ed a- gainst old blind Jake's toes, and regularly every morning the toes came off victorious Spry, who ate all ihe while like a horse, and actually comm?nce'd getiirt* fat, decleVed on every Successive morning that 1 ftc \shMI'd be: ruined past veiemptiori'.'
