The occasion was one of particular sadness owing to the circumstance o f Ida death Mr Clapp was a salesman tor a Jaekson furniture company and at Goshen Iodbdquo while laboring under temporary insanity shot himself A thorough Investigation into the cirshycumstances of his death has been made and nothing has been discovered that would hare induced blm to commit the rash act except for the time deranged He had been in poor health for some time which undoubtedly affected bis mind

DwlgM C Clapp was a popular clti-cror and an ex-Aldermen of Owossoand hie birthplace was in Madison Lake co Ohto-Araquoraquogus2^1H Wbec four years old his parents took blm back to Masca-ooweatta their former heme where they settled in Montague

CHAPTER XIII IN W H I C H I SEE T H A T W H I C H HAJ8

bull W i t N SltKN B T FKW

At dinner that evening I mentioned to my father the episode of the tln-ee Buddhist priests and found as I had exjieeted that he was very much in- tere-ted by accounts of them When however he heard of the high manshyner hi which Bam Singh had spoken of him and the distinguished posishytion which he had assigned him amenpound philologists he became so exshycited that it was all we could do to prevent hira from setting off then and there to make his acquaintance- Esshyther and I were relieved and glad when we st Inat succeeded Jn abstractshying hi boots and maneuvering him to hi bedroom for the exciting events of the last twenty-four hours had been too much for his wesi frame and delishycate nerves

t waraquo sitting at the open porch In the gloaming turning over In my naiad the unexpected events which had occurred so rapidlymdashthe gale the wrW rhe tescue and the strange dtaraeter of the castawaysmdashwhen my sister cameQuietly over to me and put her hand in mine

bullDont you think Jack she said in ber low sweet voice that we aire forêttius our friends over at Cloomshyber Hasnt all this excitement drivshyen their fears-a^d their danger but of orr bends

Ort of our heads but never out of cur 1 e gtrs s id I laughing Hovev-er you uro ri^ht Utile one for our attention has certainly been distract- ed frû th^m I shall walk up in the morning and see if I can sceanything of thorn By the rvtay to-morrow is the-fatal ~gtth of Otrtoior--one more day and ail will lie well with vs

bullOr ill said my sister gloomily Why what a little croaker you are

to bo wrtiV I cried What in tfio world is coming over you

I feel nervous and low-spirited gthe answered drawing closer to my side and shivering 1 feel as if some great JKM11 WITH hanging- over the heads of those we love Why should these priauge tuen wish to stop upon the c(ast

What the Jiurtdhislsr I Raid lightshyly Oh these fellows have continued feat daysarid rollgioiis rites of all sorts They have some êy good reashyson for staying you may lie sure -bullVIKwt you think said Esther in an awe-struck whisper that it is very strange that these prievrts should arrive here all the way from India

Just at the present moment Jin ve you not gathered from fill you have heard that thf generals fears are in some way connected with India and the Indians

The remark mado me thougthful Why now that you mention it I answered I have some vague impresshysion that the mystery is connected With some incident which occurred in that country I am sure however that your bullbullfears would vanish if yea saw Itam Singh He is the very pershysonification ofwisdom and benevoshylence fie was shocked at the idea of our killing a sheep or even a fish for his benefitmdashsaid he would rather die than have a band in taking the life of an animal

It is very foolish for me to be nershyvous said ray sister bravely But you must promise me one thing Jack Ton will go up to Cloomber in the morning and if you can see any of them you must tell them of these strange neighbors of ours They are better able to judge than^ we are whether their presence lias any sg-

I made the promise to allay my sisshyters apprehensions but in the bright sunlight of the morning it appeared little less than absurd to imagine that oar poor vegetarian castaways could liave any sinister intentions or that their advent could have any effect upshyon the tenants of Cloomber I was anxious myself however to see whether I could see anything of the Keatlierstones so after breakfast I walked up to the Hall In their seclushysion it was impossible for them to have learned anything of the recent events I felt therefore that even I should meet the general he could hardshyly regard me as an intruder wbile I had so much news to communicate

The place had the same dreary and melancholy appearance which always characterized it Looking through beshytween the thick iron bars of the main gateway there was nothing to l e sên or any of the occupants One of the great Scotch firs had been blown down In the pale and its long ruddy trunk lay right across the grass zvcvgt aveshynue hut no attempt had been iraquoltie to remove It Everything alwit tbc property bad the same air of desolashytion nod neglect with the solitary ex-laquoeotion of the massive and liraquou enetra-

Nay I should be delighted to come I responded from my heart and we set off together accompanied for some little distance by ray father who would gladly I could see have reopened th Sanscrit controversy had not his stock of breath been too limshyited to allow of his talking and walkshying at the same time

He is a learned man Ram Singh remarked after we had left him beshyhind but like many another he is Intolerant toward opinions which difshyfer from his own He will knew bet-tej some day

I made no answer to this obsera-tlon and we trudged along for a time in silence keeping well down to the waters edge where the sinds affordshyed a good foothold The sand dunes which lined the coast formed a conshytinuous ridge upon our left cutting us off entirely from all human observashytion while on the right the brorgtd channel stretched away with hardly a sail to break its silvery uniformity The Buddhist priest and I were absoshylutely alone with Nature I could not help reflecting that if he were rcaly the dangerous man that the mateafshyfected to consider him or that might be inferred from the words of Genershyal Heatherstone I had placed myself completely in ids power Yet such was the majestic benignity of the mans aspect and the unruffled serenity of his deep dark eyes that I could afford in his preaeree to let fear rnd suspishycion blow past mo as lightly as the breeze which whisiled round us His face might be stern and even terrible but I felt that he could never be unshyjust As I glanced from time to time at his noble profile and thesweep of his jet black Ixard Ms rough-spun tweed traveling suit struck me with an almost painful ense of incongruity and I rorclothcd Stim in my imaginashytion with he grnn-V sweeping Oriental costume which Is the fitting and i ropshyer frame for such a picturemdashthe only garb which does nor detract from the dignity and grace of the wearer The place to which he l--d mlaquo was a small fisher cottage which had been desertshyed some years Ix-forc by its tenant but still stood gattot and bare with

Walking slowly and on tiptoe I picked myway through the weed-grown garden and peered through the open doorway There was no furnishyture in the dreary interior nor anyshything to cover the uneven floor save a litter of fresh straw in a corner Among this straw two men were crouching the one small and wb ened the other large-Honed and gaunt with their legs crossed in Oriental fashion and their bends sunk upon their breasts Neither of them looked np nor took the smallest notice of onr presence They were so still and silent that thejr might hare been two 1 r--nze statues but for the alow and measured rhythm of their breathing Their faces however had a peculiar eshen giay color very different from the beatlhy brown of my companions and I obshyserved on stooping my bead that onshyly tbe whites of their eyes were visishyble the balls being turned upward be-ueath the lids In front of them upon a small mat lay an earthenware pitchshyer of water and half a loaf of bread together with a sheet of pjpr In-sciiU-d with certain ca alLstic chaiac-tcrs Uani Singh glanced at these and then motioning lo me to withdraw followed me out into the garden

In communicating with brother ini-tt(s We aie able to employ Our spirshyits only but when wewish to come in contact with ordinary mankind it is essential tluit we should appear in some form which they can see and comprehend

Yoti have Interested me deeply in all that you have told me I said grasping the band which Ram Singh had held out to me as a sign that our interview was at an end ^1 shftl ofshyten think of our short acqnalntance

You win derive much benefit from it he said slowly still holding my hand and looking gravely and sadly into my eyes ^Yott must remember that what happens in the futare is not necessarily bad because it does not fall In with your preconceived ideas of right Be not nasty In your judgshyments There are certain great rules which must be carried out at whatshyever cost to individuals Their operashytion may appear to yon to be harsh and creel but that la aa nothing comshypared to the dangerous precedent which would be established by not enshyforcing them The ox and the sheep are safe from us but the man with the blood of the highest upon bis liands should not and shall not live

He threw up hia arms at the first words with a fierce threatening gesshyture and turning away from me strode back to the ruined hut I stood gazing after him until be disappeared through the doorway and then startshyed off for home revolving in my mind all that I had heard and more particshyularly this last outburst of the occult philosopher Far on the right I could wee the tall white tower of Cloomber standing out clear-cut and shaip against a dark cloud-bank which rose behind it I thought how any traveler who chanced to pass that way would envy in his heart the tenant of that magnificent building and how little they would guess the strange terrors tlie nameless dangers which wrc gathering about ids head The black c1 owl-wrack wa but the maglaquo I re-c-rcd of the darker more somber tgtgtgt which was filiout to-burst

You held your own bravely I an-swereubut what is your fmpivssion of the manROW that you have seen him V

Why said my father he is one e t those holy men who undor the varshyious names of Saunasis YosisSevres Q nam riders Ilakims and Guns have devoted their lives to the study of the mysteries of tdie Buddhist faith He Is I take it a theospphist or worshipshyer of the (TOCI of knowledge the highshyest grade of whichIsthe-adept This trian and ids companions hive pot atshytained tliis high position or they could not have crossed the sea without conshytamination It is probable that they are all advanced eheias who hope in time to attain to the supreme honor of adeptship

But fatlier interrupted my sister this does net explain why men of such sanctity and attainments should choose to take up their quarters on tiie shores of a desolate jteotch bay

Ah there you get beyond me my father answered 1 may suggest howshyever thatlt is nobodys business bat their own as long as they keep the peace and are amenable to the law of the land

Have yon ever heard I asksdV that these higher priests of whom yon speak have powers which are unknown to us

Why jSastern literature is full of It The Bible is an Eastern book and is it not full of the record of sach powers from cover to cover U is unquestionshyable that they have in the past known many of Natures secrets which are lost to us I cannot say however that the modern theosophist really possess the power3 that they claim

Are they a vindictive class of peoshyple I asked Is there any off wise among them which can only Is exshypiated by death

Xot that I know of my father anshyswered raising his white eyebrrrvs in surprise You appear to be in ii inshyquisitive humor this afternoonmdashwhat i3 the object of all these questions Have our Eastern neighbors aroused your curiosity or suspicion in any way

I parried the question fiv best I might for I was unwilling to let th3 old man know what was in my mind No good purpose could come from his enlightenment his age and his health demanded rest latherthan anxiety and indeed with the best will in the world I should have found it itliUcuk to explain to another what was so very obsctzro to myself For every reason I felt tha t it Was hest tljnt he thoulil bdquo be kept in the dark

Never is all my experience hsve I known a day pass so slowly as did that eventful 6th of October Iii every posshysible manner I endeavored to while away the tedious hours and yet it fieeined as if darkness would never arshyrive I tried to read I tried to write I paced about the lawn I walked to the end of the lane I put iiew Bics on my Qshipg-hpoks I began to index my fathers libraiymdashin a dozen ways -I endeavored to relieve the suspense which was becoming intolerable My sister I could see was suffering from the same feverish restlessness Again and again our good father remonshystrated with us in his mild way for our erratic behavior and the continual interruption of his work which arose-from it At last however the tea was brought and the tea was taken the curtains were drawn the lamps Uibdquo and after another interminable interval the prayers were read and the sershyvants dismissed to their rooms My father compounded and swallowed his nightly Jorum of toddy and then shufshyfled off to his room leaving the tworaquo of us in the parlor with our nerves In a tingle and our minds full of the most vague and yet terrible apprehensions^

THE COLLIE AND SHEEP

Wonderful Sagacity Shown In the Care o f f locks

The sheep doss in this country come by their nature ami training honestly for either they or their ancestors came from the sheep-dotted bills of England Scotland or Wales where for generations past the supreme efshyfort of the shepherd has been to proshyduce a perfect sheep dog They have succeeded well for no man could exshycel them In sheep lore no man could be more useful to the sheen owner for man is neither BO persistent and agile possesses such endurance or is so gentle under training and reproof The dog doesnt reason as to the why and wherefore of his affection for the worst sort of a brut shepherd may have the most faithful dog one that will mind the sheep on the hills pa-tlently await his master coming and guide bis roettn foosteps to his home

On the great ptais of tbe west these dogs havi made-it poaatbls for one man to care for three or four thousand sheep tn one flock All they ask la a bite to eat and once in a while when their feet are filled with thosharp thorns of the cactus they will come to have them taken out There Is no vsive on a weJHnined sheep dog The yrell-bred ebtlie whtcb takes the prizes at the bench aaow is beautiful to look at but this homeshylier brother the trained dog of the range is worth more than he is beshyyond price The sheep owner holds aim as beyond purchase The sheep herder who falls so low as to part with his companion is yet to be found ami if tbe dog were to be bought the buyer might rue his bargain for the master must go with the dog

In the new country the work of the sheep dog Is hard It is on a big scale In the old country the vrork is easier but it has ita finer points In the new country the dog may drive two thoushysand sheep in the old country a dos tiay drive three or four which takes more thought and skill In the old coustry the feature of every country fair in a sheep district i s the sheep 3og trials A trophy ia the annual prise and the shepherds and their dogs come from afar to try for the cup The dog that carries away the trophy may be a little short-haired homely and Insignificant brute which bulllinks pound0 the heels of aia master Hke a creature of no spirit but send him after the sheep and his wfcote eharac ter seems to change He is slow and gentle or quick and bold as the sheep may require His whole attitude is tense and nervous No human being could manifest a greater responsibilshyitymdashKansas City Star

4 Law Which Hau Been Remarkably Successful in New Zealand

Ncv- Zealond has anticipated the rest r tho world by enacting a law which

ieala so rationally with all trade disshyputes bdquothat it lis actully prevented strikes for the last five years It is iraposglble-to^ present more tftan an outline of the plan

IJoth Ksociaticns of employers and the trade mions may bVincorporated Tiraquosc w-jiich are chartered or re^- Iftered choose the members of their own board aud also the menbers of tho court to which disputes are refershyred Whether organized or not the associat ions and trade unions are subshyject to the law

The colony of New Zealand is dividshyed Into Industrial districts for each of which there is a conciliation board elected for three years It cons i s t s of two persona chosen by registered era ploy ers two by registered trade unions and one disinterested person elected bythe tour who is chairman When a dispute arises between emshyployers and the men in their employ e ither party may refer t h e matter in dispute to the district board which has full authority to invest igate the facts and to command a s e t t l e m e n t

in case either party will not accept t h e decision the matter is referred to the State court This cons is ts of one person representing t h e trade unions o r e the employers and a chairman a Judge of the supreme court appointed by the Governor The court has a three years term and to wise ly inshydependent of politics

A decision by tuis court is final and m o s t be accepted under a penalty for violation not exceeding pound 5 0 0 or 92500 Moreover when a dispute _xis been referred to the conciliation board and until It i s finally settled a s tr ike or lockout Is illegal

That there have been about fifty e a s e s referred to district boards o~ to t h e court in the past five years that during that t ime there has neither str ike nor lockout in New Sealand and thampt in every case the decision has been accepted by both parties s eems to prove either that the l a w i s exshyc e l l e n t or that it is excel lent ly ad ministered Perhaps it demonstrates both propositions The necess i ty for the passage of a similar law in this country is to a p p a r e n t t o require arshyg u m e n t Aside from the Interests of the employers and the employed the greater interests of the general public demand i tmdashYouths Companion

CHAPTER XIII IN W H I C H I SEE T H A T W H I C H HAJ8

bull W i t N SltKN B T FKW

At dinner that evening I mentioned to my father the episode of the tln-ee Buddhist priests and found as I had exjieeted that he was very much in- tere-ted by accounts of them When however he heard of the high manshyner hi which Bam Singh had spoken of him and the distinguished posishytion which he had assigned him amenpound philologists he became so exshycited that it was all we could do to prevent hira from setting off then and there to make his acquaintance- Esshyther and I were relieved and glad when we st Inat succeeded Jn abstractshying hi boots and maneuvering him to hi bedroom for the exciting events of the last twenty-four hours had been too much for his wesi frame and delishycate nerves

t waraquo sitting at the open porch In the gloaming turning over In my naiad the unexpected events which had occurred so rapidlymdashthe gale the wrW rhe tescue and the strange dtaraeter of the castawaysmdashwhen my sister cameQuietly over to me and put her hand in mine

to bo wrtiV I cried What in tfio world is coming over you

I feel nervous and low-spirited gthe answered drawing closer to my side and shivering 1 feel as if some great JKM11 WITH hanging- over the heads of those we love Why should these priauge tuen wish to stop upon the c(ast

Just at the present moment Jin ve you not gathered from fill you have heard that thf generals fears are in some way connected with India and the Indians

The remark mado me thougthful Why now that you mention it I answered I have some vague impresshysion that the mystery is connected With some incident which occurred in that country I am sure however that your bullbullfears would vanish if yea saw Itam Singh He is the very pershysonification ofwisdom and benevoshylence fie was shocked at the idea of our killing a sheep or even a fish for his benefitmdashsaid he would rather die than have a band in taking the life of an animal

It is very foolish for me to be nershyvous said ray sister bravely But you must promise me one thing Jack Ton will go up to Cloomber in the morning and if you can see any of them you must tell them of these strange neighbors of ours They are better able to judge than^ we are whether their presence lias any sg-

little one I answered as we went indoors You have beVa over-excited by all these wild doings and you need a sound nights rest to compose you Ill do what yon sugshygest however and onr friends shall judge for themselves whether these poor devils should be sent about their business or not

I made the promise to allay my sisshyters apprehensions but in the bright sunlight of the morning it appeared little less than absurd to imagine that oar poor vegetarian castaways could liave any sinister intentions or that their advent could have any effect upshyon the tenants of Cloomber I was anxious myself however to see whether I could see anything of the Keatlierstones so after breakfast I walked up to the Hall In their seclushysion it was impossible for them to have learned anything of the recent events I felt therefore that even I should meet the general he could hardshyly regard me as an intruder wbile I had so much news to communicate

The place had the same dreary and melancholy appearance which always characterized it Looking through beshytween the thick iron bars of the main gateway there was nothing to l e sên or any of the occupants One of the great Scotch firs had been blown down In the pale and its long ruddy trunk lay right across the grass zvcvgt aveshynue hut no attempt had been iraquoltie to remove It Everything alwit tbc property bad the same air of desolashytion nod neglect with the solitary ex-laquoeotion of the massive and liraquou enetra-

more between them Through this I had a view of the house and a part of the lawn in front of It and though I could see no signs of life outside or at any of the windows I settled down with the intention of sticking to my pest until I had a chance of speaking to one or other of the inmates Inshydeed the cold dead aspect of the house had struck STtch ad i l l l in to my heart that 1 detetmined to scale the ft nfe at whatever risk of Incurring the generars displeasure rather than reshyturn without news of the Heather-stonc-Si bullbullbull bull

I should have preferred communicating with the general alone but since there was no dissoclatipg him from his companion I iwai loudly oh the fencing with my stick to attract their attention They both faced around in a moment and I could see from their gestures that they wee dlsturinnl aul alarmed I then elevated my stick above the barrier to show them where the sound proeeiled from At- this the general bepanAo walk in tny dishyrection with the air of a man who is bracing himself for an effort but the other caught him-bythe Wrist and enshydeavored to dissuade him It was only when I shouted out my no me and asshysured them that I was alone that I could prevail upon them to approach Once assured of my identity the genshyeral i-aiieagerly toward me and greet ed me with the utmost cord a I y

Nay I should be delighted to come I responded from my heart and we set off together accompanied for some little distance by ray father who would gladly I could see have reopened th Sanscrit controversy had not his stock of breath been too limshyited to allow of his talking and walkshying at the same time

He is a learned man Ram Singh remarked after we had left him beshyhind but like many another he is Intolerant toward opinions which difshyfer from his own He will knew bet-tej some day

I made no answer to this obsera-tlon and we trudged along for a time in silence keeping well down to the waters edge where the sinds affordshyed a good foothold The sand dunes which lined the coast formed a conshytinuous ridge upon our left cutting us off entirely from all human observashytion while on the right the brorgtd channel stretched away with hardly a sail to break its silvery uniformity The Buddhist priest and I were absoshylutely alone with Nature I could not help reflecting that if he were rcaly the dangerous man that the mateafshyfected to consider him or that might be inferred from the words of Genershyal Heatherstone I had placed myself completely in ids power Yet such was the majestic benignity of the mans aspect and the unruffled serenity of his deep dark eyes that I could afford in his preaeree to let fear rnd suspishycion blow past mo as lightly as the breeze which whisiled round us His face might be stern and even terrible but I felt that he could never be unshyjust As I glanced from time to time at his noble profile and thesweep of his jet black Ixard Ms rough-spun tweed traveling suit struck me with an almost painful ense of incongruity and I rorclothcd Stim in my imaginashytion with he grnn-V sweeping Oriental costume which Is the fitting and i ropshyer frame for such a picturemdashthe only garb which does nor detract from the dignity and grace of the wearer The place to which he l--d mlaquo was a small fisher cottage which had been desertshyed some years Ix-forc by its tenant but still stood gattot and bare with

Walking slowly and on tiptoe I picked myway through the weed-grown garden and peered through the open doorway There was no furnishyture in the dreary interior nor anyshything to cover the uneven floor save a litter of fresh straw in a corner Among this straw two men were crouching the one small and wb ened the other large-Honed and gaunt with their legs crossed in Oriental fashion and their bends sunk upon their breasts Neither of them looked np nor took the smallest notice of onr presence They were so still and silent that thejr might hare been two 1 r--nze statues but for the alow and measured rhythm of their breathing Their faces however had a peculiar eshen giay color very different from the beatlhy brown of my companions and I obshyserved on stooping my bead that onshyly tbe whites of their eyes were visishyble the balls being turned upward be-ueath the lids In front of them upon a small mat lay an earthenware pitchshyer of water and half a loaf of bread together with a sheet of pjpr In-sciiU-d with certain ca alLstic chaiac-tcrs Uani Singh glanced at these and then motioning lo me to withdraw followed me out into the garden

But if you can transmit your spirshyits yo readily I observed why should they be accompanied by any body at all

In communicating with brother ini-tt(s We aie able to employ Our spirshyits only but when wewish to come in contact with ordinary mankind it is essential tluit we should appear in some form which they can see and comprehend

Yoti have Interested me deeply in all that you have told me I said grasping the band which Ram Singh had held out to me as a sign that our interview was at an end ^1 shftl ofshyten think of our short acqnalntance

You win derive much benefit from it he said slowly still holding my hand and looking gravely and sadly into my eyes ^Yott must remember that what happens in the futare is not necessarily bad because it does not fall In with your preconceived ideas of right Be not nasty In your judgshyments There are certain great rules which must be carried out at whatshyever cost to individuals Their operashytion may appear to yon to be harsh and creel but that la aa nothing comshypared to the dangerous precedent which would be established by not enshyforcing them The ox and the sheep are safe from us but the man with the blood of the highest upon bis liands should not and shall not live

He threw up hia arms at the first words with a fierce threatening gesshyture and turning away from me strode back to the ruined hut I stood gazing after him until be disappeared through the doorway and then startshyed off for home revolving in my mind all that I had heard and more particshyularly this last outburst of the occult philosopher Far on the right I could wee the tall white tower of Cloomber standing out clear-cut and shaip against a dark cloud-bank which rose behind it I thought how any traveler who chanced to pass that way would envy in his heart the tenant of that magnificent building and how little they would guess the strange terrors tlie nameless dangers which wrc gathering about ids head The black c1 owl-wrack wa but the maglaquo I re-c-rcd of the darker more somber tgtgtgt which was filiout to-burst

You held your own bravely I an-swereubut what is your fmpivssion of the manROW that you have seen him V

Why said my father he is one e t those holy men who undor the varshyious names of Saunasis YosisSevres Q nam riders Ilakims and Guns have devoted their lives to the study of the mysteries of tdie Buddhist faith He Is I take it a theospphist or worshipshyer of the (TOCI of knowledge the highshyest grade of whichIsthe-adept This trian and ids companions hive pot atshytained tliis high position or they could not have crossed the sea without conshytamination It is probable that they are all advanced eheias who hope in time to attain to the supreme honor of adeptship

But fatlier interrupted my sister this does net explain why men of such sanctity and attainments should choose to take up their quarters on tiie shores of a desolate jteotch bay

Ah there you get beyond me my father answered 1 may suggest howshyever thatlt is nobodys business bat their own as long as they keep the peace and are amenable to the law of the land

Have yon ever heard I asksdV that these higher priests of whom yon speak have powers which are unknown to us

Why jSastern literature is full of It The Bible is an Eastern book and is it not full of the record of sach powers from cover to cover U is unquestionshyable that they have in the past known many of Natures secrets which are lost to us I cannot say however that the modern theosophist really possess the power3 that they claim

Are they a vindictive class of peoshyple I asked Is there any off wise among them which can only Is exshypiated by death

I parried the question fiv best I might for I was unwilling to let th3 old man know what was in my mind No good purpose could come from his enlightenment his age and his health demanded rest latherthan anxiety and indeed with the best will in the world I should have found it itliUcuk to explain to another what was so very obsctzro to myself For every reason I felt tha t it Was hest tljnt he thoulil bdquo be kept in the dark

Never is all my experience hsve I known a day pass so slowly as did that eventful 6th of October Iii every posshysible manner I endeavored to while away the tedious hours and yet it fieeined as if darkness would never arshyrive I tried to read I tried to write I paced about the lawn I walked to the end of the lane I put iiew Bics on my Qshipg-hpoks I began to index my fathers libraiymdashin a dozen ways -I endeavored to relieve the suspense which was becoming intolerable My sister I could see was suffering from the same feverish restlessness Again and again our good father remonshystrated with us in his mild way for our erratic behavior and the continual interruption of his work which arose-from it At last however the tea was brought and the tea was taken the curtains were drawn the lamps Uibdquo and after another interminable interval the prayers were read and the sershyvants dismissed to their rooms My father compounded and swallowed his nightly Jorum of toddy and then shufshyfled off to his room leaving the tworaquo of us in the parlor with our nerves In a tingle and our minds full of the most vague and yet terrible apprehensions^
