had surmiscd. Dora was the only CHILD Of
her wealthy iathcr; her mother died when
she was mere ehHj; old Angelino had
remained with her father IL the capacity of
n housekeepsr, and had, while Dora was at
school, acquired. rs is generally the case,
complete influence over him. Dora was
woocd and won by poor clerk; the father
would not listen TO It; an elopemcnt WAS
the consequence and the old man in his
rage broke up housekeeping, and taking
old Angelina with him, started for the
South. Dora followed him with her has>
band, although she knew he would not sec
her, aud although he had always been harsh
and unkina to her, ye, she knew he was in
the last stages OF consumption, and she de.
terinlned if possible, to be with him when
he died. At the time of his death, they had
been following him about a month from
place to place, keeping concealed from
him. and eluding even the keen eyes OF An.
geline Wher Dora appeared in the room,
ii WAS only because the man servant, who
had been with her father, aud who, as you
remember left the room when ! entered,
had observed their arrival, and had kindly
gone to her and informed her that her father
could not live an hour she was entering
the room to make one last effort at recon.
Citation, when my voice reading the learlal
words of her fathers curse caused the out
cry and donouement

the old man dead, Dora in swoou. me
