The glare Of the torch which the young
man held, flashed around and lii up every oh
ject. There upon thick bed ofwild heath
er, lay the sweet Flora Campbell holding in
her white arms aud close TO her bosom, II
young limb.
Christie stopped aud gnzed at her, She
brcnthcd calmly, and he knew TINT she was
sleeping. He glanced ut the little lumb,S saw
Tint one Of lis leg was tied with ribbons from
FIoras hat. Then he looked up and shout
cd aloud-"She is Safe
This shout was echoed so loudly and so
gladly that it woke the young maiden from
the sumber which had held her. She
glanced around with bewildercd gaze, and
recognized the youth. Dear Christie she
said, u am so glad you have come. Now we
will save your fathers lamb"
Christie and the villagers soon learned all.
How Flora had beheId the young lambkh
where IL had fallen, nj the bottom of the
Deer's Mouth, and saw that one of its deli
cate limbs was broken-how she had de-
sccnded from ledge to ledge of the chasm
side, clingng 10 the ivy, and thinking not Of
danger-how she had bound up the broken
limb with her ribbons and held the young
lambkln i'll her arms and how, ut last, wen-
ny with her cXertion she had fallen asleep,
and heard not the cries oftlIosc who searched
for her.
joyful and happy the villagers were, when
they learned the safety ofFIorn, and the little
lamhkin she had rescu ed was given to herhy
Christie's father. And Flora was often seen
afterwards bounding over the brnes, with her
pet liisking beside Eer-and often as she APP
peared, the old villagers would smiIe,and say,
"God bless her."
