four parties to thu con to it , classified aa
follows : Two young men who made H
wager , ono stuko holder and a very nice
young lady. As wo learn the fao'n
( before the trial ) they are about as fol
lows : The youncf man were enamored
K of and paying attention to the younjj
lady. Eicli know of the others admira
tion for the aforesaid young lady and
each felt secure in his own right to her
affections. Kach had chaffed the othui
about the girl and made the usual
amount of boast abjut how solid howas
and each watched the other for any new
developments and Imi considered himself
th > Muldooi o' fie occasion.Not long
ago thosn rivals iimdo a but , putting up
their watches , which , by the way , were
valuable OIIPH. They placed these in the
hands nf the slaveholder. The terms of
the bet worn that ono of the boys should
cut the other out and win the young lady ,
At the timn the but was made theao riyal
