Not many months since a well to
do farmer of a Connecticut village
went to the telegraph office and wish
ed to send a dispatch to his friends of
the death and burial of his wife. Be
ing somewhat acquainted with the
man, a lady operator expressed sym
pathy for him and his motherless
children, whereupon the afflicted wid
ower sobbed aloud and the tears rapid
ly coursed down his cheeks. At last,
becoming a little more composed, he
said; “Yes, she’s dead. She was
worn out like an old setting hen. She
died without a kick.”
