Demipsy Duvall's counsel iniiedinte ly entered an appeal, and the case was transferred to the higher court. Thc (efendant, though lie hiai no doubt, of his ultimate success, had begun to rc le alize that it was expensive to kill t ic king snake. But there was a memory (1 connccted with the cause of the suit that entirely set aside the thought of Sexpenise, though DIvall had not had a C gliipse of that face since the incident. As )empsy walked from the court . room on the day of the trial, a boy , handed him a note, the superscription s of which was puzzling. The hand d writing was uniiknown to him, but he hastily opeined the letter and read: o i D ear Mr. Diuvall-I have just o learned of tlie unfortunate turn a cer s tain inl enileiit with which you were >t coniecteil has taken for you, and I e hasten to make known to you how -. deeply I regret that your kiid assist 11anve inl removing a reptile from my I pat h 1'.:si led you into trouble; also t 0 express a hope that, your opponenti a) will lose his suit.
