Full Text
Quite a laughable affair occurred at one of the hotels in the village the other evening by a young lady who is employed in the culinary department of said hotel, arraying herself in men's apparel and going into the bar room, and getting a drink of whiskey. The young lady in question should remember that in thus unsexing herself she makes herself liable to fine and imprisonment.
