was sadly deformed by a fatal taste for low associates.

I remain, gentlemen, your very humble and

obd't servant, TITUS W. PEEBLES.

P.S.—Private.

MY DEAR PIX: If you don't feel inclined to

pony up that little sum you are out on the bay

gelding, drop down to my place when I get back

and I'll give you another chance for your life at

the pasteboards. Constitution going through.
