Being in company of a few intimate friends, one evening, one of them re- marked to him, that if she was his wife—since all other things had failed—he would frighten her in some way so that she would quit; and proposed the following me- thod: that some time, when dead drunk, she should be| laid into a box shaped like a coffin, and left in that situ-| ation until her drunken fit should be over, and consci- ousness restored. A few evenings after, the lady being ina proper state, the plan was put into execution, and after the box lid was properly secured, the party alluded to watched, in turn, to witness the result.
