Got Jtway With, Thm,' . -'
; We hear it whispered that a Dur
ham man was in New York a few
days ago and by-some means ell in
witfi some, "green goods'' men. j, If
was the usual case thev were to
give the Durham man sb much
. money for a small sum of the gen-
" ulne coin." He had them to count
; it out, which they did, and our
Durham man wanted to leave right
away, buthe was told that it would be
unsafe toleave with so much money
in a loose state and they would seal
it up, They proceeded to do so,
, - A oackaeewas fixed.up and every
""thine appeWed to be,all "right. The
Durham man ; took his package
shook it and said it seemed to be
; there but before he paid .'over his
cash he preferred to look at it again.
After Some parleying the seals were
' broken, the package opened, ana
running his thumb over the edge
of the pile, he found a stack of green
, -t)at)er. with a good bill on top. The
' green goods" men, were very much
surprised and. acknowledged . that
thev had been caught at their own
"game. They "offered "to '.take the
Durham man all over the . city and
; , show him: every courtesy, but he
declined and walked outsaying he
diihis'own traveling and paid his
own expenses. JNot every one wno
fnnls with ,cTeen coodsV, men are
so fortunate as this man.
