go the rope and started ; ofC and pa
said he knew bow it was I wanted
him to get killed. It wasn't that, but
I saw the Irish woman that owned the
goat coming around the corner of the
house with a cistern pole.' Just as pa'
was getting the goat out of the gate
the goat got crossways of the gate,
and da vanked and doubled the goat
right op, aod I thought he broke-the
goat's neck, and the woman thought
so too, for sbe jabbed pa with tbe
cistern pole just below the belt, and
Bbe tried to get a hold on pa's hair,
but he had her there. No woman can
get the advantage of pa in that way,
'cause ma has tried it. Well, pa ex
plained it to the woman, and she let
pa off if he wdold pay,1 her two dol
lars for damages to ber goat, and he
paid it and then we took the nanny
goat and it wentngnt along witn us.
