up by my fastened leg and cut away the boot and stocking, and then with that knife 1 unioinled my ankle and fell to the ground, my left isg Il footless, bleeding stump! The in,ensny of the cold saved me from bleeding to death. tore off q part of my coat, and with my handker- chief and suspenders managed to b'nd my leg with handful of snow. and started to crawl home. l succeeded in reaching within sight of the house, and then my strength utterly failed me-
 tried my voice in vain, but l could make no one hear. l exerted myself once more, and crawled towards the road that knew Heman must come. It was painful task, for, besides my exhaus- ton, was perishing with cold. Just then heard my brothers stage horn, and the jingle of the bells coming down the hill. 1 strained my voice to the utmost pitch, but he did not, could not hear; but there was another friend mans faithful friend-who did hear. Old Hunter, the noble old dog. had insisted on accompany ing this trip, and brother said "Let him go; who knows what good may come of il?" Good did come of 1t, for his ear was quicker than Heman's. and he reused up at the first cry, and as the second cry reached his ear, he leaped out, and in a minute was at the spot where lay upon the snow. He smelt all around, and l held up my footless leg. Just then the sleigh had got up the hill. Hunter sprang back into the path, parked loudly, and as the horses came up, he jumped up, seized the rains, and would not let go till Heman called halt.
 Hunter let go his hold on the horses, jumped back to the sleigh, caught hold of Keman's hand, pulling off the miuen, and away he ran back where was, and commenced barking furiously; but heard nothing. The effect upon me when l knew .ha, was discovered by that faith ful old dog, and that he never would de- sert me, had caused me. to faint. My brother knew that Hunter was not at play-that something curious was the matter--and jumped out of the sleigh and ran offer him.
 In little while 1 was safe at home i; the doctor was sent for, and my wound properly dressed. eventually recovered, but was, however, a cripple for life.
