There flourished in the city about the same'period three Johns, the first "a crazy, wild, fire-eyed fellow known by the name of old John Willod, whose wife, it was said, had turned his brain, and whose relations, it was beUeved,had picked his pockets. He was a sort of erratic meteor in the moving world ; sometimes mild and sometimes mischievous. He sung psalms and catches up- on the hills, threw up his arms into the air, and cut such terrific capers as frightened the boys out of their wits, and... even attracted the attention of the cattle in the field. At the sound of his voice in the streets, the housemaids iaa in and hasped their doors, while the youngerlings dropt their marbles and fled like quicksilver. He seemed to take especial pleasure in frightening the smaller boys whenever he came across them either in the town or fields." The second was familiarly known as "old Brooks." "Brooks belonged to the antiquities of the old world. He certamly had all the appearances of an antediluvian.
