AN AUNT AT WILL.

[A lawsuit has been occasioned in India through white ants

devouring a will.]

It is usually supposed that Australia is topsey-turvey mad, but in

India it seems that matters also go by contraries, when compared with

their mode of procedure at home. A lawsuit has been occasioned in

Calcutta through white ants devouring a will. In England our Aunts

(who are generally whites) make wills (bless them!) and _we_ devour

them, or at least live on the proceeds.

THE OTHER DAY!"]
