Having re-lnsured and cancelled nearly all the
extra and special risks previously held by the Com
pany, and conGning our business strictly to first
class risks, we think we offer as safe insurance as
any company represented in the West. During
the past four years have paid the very large sum
$3l 200 IN losses, and hope to avoid heavy losses
in future by declining all specially hazardous
risks.

tits a professional scar, Harry;

earliest practice; and although l
have arrived at a tolerable old age,
and / have many intimate friends,
it is most singular fact that you
are the first and only person that
ever inquired into its origin, !
can tell you all about it, but must
avoid names and places, for the
parties most interested in the Incl
dent are still living, y
:. In the year 1881, after passing
my examination, | was pronounced
a properly qualified person to APP
pear before juries and courts for
others as well as myself, and al
once proceeded to a large Southern
city, where. by a modest little
sign over the door Of modest lit
tie office, I announced my readi-
ness to commence the practice Of
the law. For three months !
waited, but, alasl no business came,
and | sat in my Office on dreary
night, at about eleven O'Clock, in
this very comfortable position;
my money was gone entirely; my
Aboard-bilI was to he paid in the
morning, and my rent the day
following; and / absolutely feared
I to go to my clearinghouse, and
waited in what seemed forlorn
ilope that something in the way of
a fee might appear either dropping
from the skies, or suddenly ap-i
pearing on my desk. Outside, no
step was heard; and as I occasion
ally glanced through my window,
the fame Of the street-light moved
by the wind, would seemingly
move me homeward; but / would
mot 90. A footstep sounded in
gmy entYy;a second and a third,
and more, but SO light that my,
heart beating prevented my count
ING them; and then a little deli
cate knock. | compelled myself
to say @Coine in,' with a calm
voice, although l expected TO TO be pc
instantly, qis-a-Yis e;-gi with a young
woman. the door opened and | saw
an old one. l had only time'2to
move toward chair before she
was in the centre Of the room, and
speaking: - F..4 ai.,5zta

mark that it depended somewhat bat
on its nature; but 1 saw from nel
impatience that she wanted no tn

: and there before me, sure enough enongl
stood the, Dora of thirty years pre-
vious, still retaining many ef he
:. charms, but with the marks OF

upon her features. rsai bsh srI
You may well believe our reun
ion was most pleasant; and aftel
our dinner was over, and we were
out enjoying the isea-breeze, the the
whole story was told me. l wi vii

was long, but themain fee tnres OF
it were about what / had sur.
missed. Dora was the onfy child
of a wealthy -fatEer; her motEel
died when she was mere child;
old Angeline had remained with
, her father in the capacity Of a
housekeeper, and had, while Dora
was away at school, acquired, as
is generally the case, complete IN
iRuence over him. Dora was
Itwooed and won by poor clerk;
the father would not listen 'tc
it; an elopement was the con.
sequence, and the old man in m his
rage broke up housekeeping, and,
taking old Angeline with him, had
2 started for the south. Dora had
followed Elm with her husband,
although, she knew he would not
see her, and although he had al
ways been harsh and unkind to
her, yet she knew he was IN the
last stages Of consumption, and
she determined, 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 the keen
eyes of Angeline. When Dora
appeared in the room, it was only
because the man-servant, who, as
you remember, left the room as l
entered, had kindly gone, to. her
and Informed her that her father
could not live an hour; she was en-
tefing the room to make a last eff
fort at reconciliation, oiwhen my
voice reading the fearful words of
her fathers curse caused the cut
cry and the dencNenlealt. Her hus-
band, who followed Ler in, found
the old man dead, Dora in a swoon,
me senseless, ard old Angeline in
vain trying to rut the many pc
oes, of the will together, and raw
ting and eursing like a bedlamite.
He and the man-servant put the
old mans body on the bed, took
Dora to her room, and while the
servant kept guard over Angellinlee,
he took me home in a carriaGe--
The rest you know. ia zajlaiEi
Ihaye onlyte add, that, wllenev-
feff | gonorth, either alone or with
my wife and family we always
stop at the house of our kind
friends. They have spent enc
winter with us at the south, and
we expect them again the coming
season. And the young gentleman
who Studied law under my instruc-
ton, and who now practises law
with my name on the sign with
his Jas senior partner, although he
does all the .business) is Dora's
son, and from certain conscious
looks and bright bushes on my
pretty daughters cheek when he
calls, I imagine he may possibly be
mine, too But of this, Harry,
rest assured-L sh Ill not curse her

Beneath the daisied sod,
But they have seen onr Father, 80
Aud pray for us to pod.
