I We be II The b I I We i OLBSTYRE REPLIES TO SPOTTER. I Doubts the Presence of "Wimmin" at Three .Mile Township, Nov. 22, '21. Dear Mr. Edditer:?Have bin thinkin fur sum tyme previously of ritin to yore paper but was jus afraid you wud not publish my peece. But have bin readin Mr. Highball Spotter's artucles and it has put me to thinkin, so I spoke to my old fren, Sarah Jane Doolittle, about ihit, so she tells me to doo so by all meens. Now, Sarah w Jane is well informed, for shes travt piod erbout considerbul, and can talk I>A so nice erbout home equinoxes and , mental deficiency for wimmin. Now as to miself, I never cud talk much but cud allers shout with my pin. V Don't think I'm puffed up erbout my ritin erbility, fur I aint* Mr. Edditer, ?' . but lots of folks have been sayin fur sum tyme that I ort not to hyde my lite under a quart measure. Well, enuff sed erlong this line, to cum to the rale objec of this peece I and to make a short story long. I'll |&v say that while I have every respec fur Mr. Spotter, stil I muss say I doo differ sum with him. In- the fuss place I don't beleeve there was enny wimmin at that meetin he spoke erbout, for if there was they mus have bin skeered. That meetin is so karLt , . acteristic of the men?fus a heap of fcalkin and nothing else. Anuther case of sumthin attempted nuthin dun as the poit has so bootifully said. In the secon place hes makin all manner of complaints erbout the bad E erodes and tne men Denin me jou?. S Now if Mr. Spotter wus much of a 8T filosopher, think he cud see so easy BJjr- that it wus not the bad rodes that P caused so menny cars to be over I turned, but rather the bad drivin and I S the bad whiskey behin the drivin. B Uno I don't believe you'll hear of so K much complaints erbout bad rodes 1 an so forth when we wimmin cum | into power, fur raly dont surpose m we'll have many cars to turn over, perhaps only an old grey mule and S jersie waggin, but annyway we'll try B to be continted an happie an if we R?- make a bad bargain we'll make the K best of it. Certainly, as Sarah Jane 1 ^ w**'11 n Vvrv humors no ro_ H nas sam, W C II wc iiuiuau pcxx. R chutes, fer we'll go to work and acRx complish sumthin if its only to hush I the squalls of a yellin kid. R Uno in the third place, don't think X we wimmin folks wud ever think fer R one minnit of movin ole three mvle ji township to a more desirerbul place. -;v; A n riii ? f g to annot quarters usiness of 1 hope to be future ( irst "M * Bi We intend to let it stay rite where it is, and it doo seam funny that Mr. Spotter and his contimporaries wild think of movin old Fish Pon, fur dont they know that in movin it they'd lykely turn over sum of there stills, and too, set it down on some other kommunity. They doo tell me that there is places on this ole earth where theres nothin but space but am sure this write, has traveled at least 40 myles from home and have never struck one of these places yet, an even if they did the transportation wud be orful hy. Uno, whin we talk of the things we are goin to doo, ?f Afir man frtll'o urill nnlr lafP OUllIC UI \J Ui UiWU AV/AXk-O IT1U VA*4J *%??. and say that we'll never do enything in polertics, that we wimmin talk too much erbout our valors, and that we can't keep a secret at all. In behaff ' of my feller wimmin I wish to denie both these charges. In the fust place we don't speke ill of our frens unless sumbody else has said it fust, and the men do ditto and the same. As to the matter of keepin secrits, am sure I've kep my age a profuse secrit for the pass 45 years and intin to keep it hence forward to ad infinitum. And uno Mr. Edditer, forty secondly and lassly, I hope you'll publish my peece, and that you'll help usi out some in our political troubles (if we hav enny) when we try the blaized trail. If I see this in print will write you agen soonly. With gud wishes to yore paper, and hopin you'll continue to sin it to me fur I doo love to be up to dait, I remane, Yours very respectively, MIRANDY OLDSTYLE. "notice of probate judge s SALE.
