Stranger than Fiction The following from an exchange illustrates again the fact the "truth is stranger than fiction," and that people do indeed at times "entertain angels unawares:" "A tramp called at the house of a Springfield man last Friday; he was old and footsore, and the lady invited him in. In giving his history it came out that he was the grand-father of the lady, and he had been for several years on the tramp, looking for some of his relatives. He had gone to sea and been ship-wrecked years ago and was supposed to be dead. It is a romance in real life such as is seldom found." column 4 OUR JAIL How Long Shall Non Action Prevail?
