By “MAC."

Met William “Shiver" Daugherty
yesterday afternoon. I haven't sees
him for nearly a year. A three minute
preliminary took all of the “How ya
beons" out of our way and we fell to
chatting of the rare old. fair old
golden days that have gone beyond
recall.

Of course you knew where I found
him. down in O'Connor’s garage. it
used to bo O'Connor's Livery d; Peed
Stable and. before that Sile‘y Greg-
cry's.

it was. with the latter that Shiver
started following the horses. Bill as
he is known to his family. has been

One night in May he came into

watched the telephone truck come

a merry beaker quaffed. as the hos-
tlors bent to the task of harnessing
the impatient coho. Shades of Sam
Weller. those were the days!

Can you wonder at Shiver's re-
mark that he was "all wet" in a
place like this now-a-days. He's a
good bit'iiko the letter carrier who.
when he gets a day off. takes a nice
long walk. So we went up to West
Norwaik to look at a jumper. It's a
'gre t treat to listen in on a chin

room rocked with the vocabulary
that is a rarity about town. Head-

halters and hitches. sidebars. bug-
