Here is the story: Twenty-five years ago MeDougall and McFarlane were neighbors and both fell in love with the sawe girl, Means he used were quite above board and being a disbeliever in the old saying that all is fair in love and war, became a recluse and seldom left his house except to go to the store to purchase supplies, Both men were prosperous and made money farming.

Finally, in some way, McDougall discovered that the mysterious pack- ages contained United States postage stamps in various denominations, and that his neighbor was secreting them somewhere in the house. He was well aware that McFarlane was afraid of ks, but why he should convert his wealth into foreign postage stamps was not clear. On making the discov. ery, a way to square accounts for the fancied or real wrong done him sug- gested: itself, and he bided his time. .In the summer of 1805 a servant who had been employed by the Me- Farlanes since the day of the wedding, died, and when the body was taken to the grave the entire family accom- panied it, leaving the house unguard- ed for the first time in ten years. The day. after "the funeral Mgd'arlane suf- fered a slight stroke of paralysis, and two years later died from the effects. At this time his wife created a sen- sation hy telling of 5 statement made by her husband when he was dying. This was to the effect that his entire wealth had been converted imto Unit- ed States Postage stamps and con- cealed in an old copper kettle in the cellar. The Stamps were in good con- dition, when he left for the cemetery the day the servant died, but when returned he found that someone had boiled- them during his absence, and that they were dissolved into a sticky unrecognizable mass. His reason for putting his wealth into stamps bought in the United States instead of into Canadian postage was that thieves would be unable to dispose of the plunder without leaving Cape Breton. How much money was lost he refused to sav, but the shock killed him. McDougall was suspected, but there was no evidence against him and no arrest was made. His confession was complete and bears out the story of the widow. He said that he sneaked house after the funeral and searched until he found the stamps them on the kitchen returned from ---- Try Bibhy's 81 outing shirts. The 8t.
