which she asserted was to ba devolod to re?
lieving the wants of a poor sick family-sud
Tamily al vaya living in an OUt-of-tbo-way
place and a lone distance from the house tho im?
postor was visiting. If the lady of tho house
iesired to know the name of the afhVcted fami?
ly she would reply that she would uot tell it for
the world, that it was onoe a very distinguish .
3d family, and even now, though in poverty,
tbe members would not let it be known that
they were ip need, and as au act of kindness
ihe had determined to solicit aid for them, if
ihe lady of the house had not mouey, the appli
jan1. asked tor coffee, tea and sugar. 8he gen?
itally received money or these articles, and
with profuse thanks departed. In a certain
leighborhood her visits becime too frequent,
ind abe was watched. This course led to ber
>eing detected ba spending the money, or
telling the coffee, tes and sugar she obtained
for liquor, on which abe would get drunk,
liter upending all of ber money she would
itart on another tour in behalf of tbe "dis ti n
ruished family."
