Goldsboro, April 24—It cost Rudolph Lamb of the Clinton section $4 to get his wife back when he left her in the city on a recent shopping expedition, it was revealed here today.
Lamb, according to reports, left his rural home accompanied by his better half, and when they reached the city he stopped the mule and deposited his wife on the sidewalk and told her to sit there and wait his return.
An hour’s shopping found Lamb weary and with a wagon filled with the results of his purchasing, he drove on home. Just as he reached his domicile he discovered he had forgotten something, and a careful check revealed that the something was his wife. The ford, which he was compelled to hire to go to town in, cost him $4.
