And that theer reporter wot wrote it must hev seed it reely!" Uncle Jim cleared his throat, and holding the paper close to his eyes read aloud slowly: "'A scene of excitement that recalled the palmy days of '49 was witnessed last night at the Arcade Saloon.
It is certain that Don Santiago de la Cruz brought both plant and 'bug' from Guatemala or Honduras in 1835; and that an Englishman, who has advanced a right even in writing, labours under a not uncommon hallucination. But the early half of the present century was the palmy day of the vine.
