twk it over and presented it to the old
man, who was delighted with it.
The cap was very serviceable, hav
ing flaps that came down over the
ears, and would wear about a life
time. The next winter the American
returned to Scotland and noticed to
his surprise that the old man did not
wear the fur cap.
“■What is the matter with the cap
I gave you la.st winter?" he asked.
“I haven’t worn it since the acci-
dcnt”, replied the old gamekeeper.
The man from Brockviile pondered.
“You didn’t write me concerning
any accident,” he said.
“No,” mused the gamekeeper. “A
man offered me a gla.^s of whiskey
and I didn’t hear him.”
