Suddenly, by soiue mishap, he niissed his hold on the hook and feil into the deep ice cellar, a depth of from fifteen to twenty feet, and "lit" on hia head and shoulders. Of course those who 6uw it expected to find him dead, but when they looked in at the door he sat scratching his hcad with a foolish kind of look on his face, first exiimiiiing the brokt n ico where he feil, and then slowly measuring the distance with kis eye upward to whure he feil from. When ho saw Mr. Wheeler ho looked very sorry and said, "Fo' de Lord, boss I'se sorry I broke dat ice, I is, sartin."
