Grocer Soaked On A Bunco Game

GROCER SOAKED ON A BUNCO GAME

A well dressed young man went to a grocery store Tuesday evening about supper time and presented a note from a lady who was a neighbor of the proprietor asking him to send the list of groceries contained in the note to her by the bearer. The goods were delivered to him and as he was leaving the store the salesman asked him his name. He said he was a nephew of the lady who ordered the goods and bore the same name.

After the young man had left the store it occurred to the salesman that there were no male members of this family except for the father, so he began to Investigate and found that the goods had not been ordered and so he was out a nice lot of honey, fruit, olives, etc It was probably some fellow who wanted to furnish his friends a spread and thought this is a cheap way of doing it.
