A REASON WHY.
A local bibliophile thinks the question of the day is, Why Jacob wept ? He asks .us to publish the opinions of eminent authorities on this archaic conundrum, including the Archbishop of Canterbury, W. E. Gladstone, Mark Twain, and Sir George Grey. It appears these authorities have discovered that Jacob wept after he kissed Each el, and the circumstance is considered unusual. But as Eachel did not think there was anything to cry about, we do not see that it matters whether Jacob wept or not.
