You shall, Twas the reply.
In another hour the blacksmith
clasped his daughter to his bosom.
1t was an affecting scene-there in
that lone house in the wilderness, SUR
rounded by men who had been driven
from their homes for their attachment
to the principles for which the patriot
fathers fought and bled-the sturdy old
smith, q type of the heroes of other
days, pressing his daughter to his
breast, while the tears coursed down

Matte blushed but said nothing.
In short time the hunted down

1t was an impressive scene. Yet no
diamonds glittered upon the neck of
the bride, no pearls looped up her
tresses, but pure love glowed within
her heart as she gave utterance to a
vow which was registered in Heaven.
Bradley, soon after the ceremony,
bade his daughter and her husband an
affectionate farewell, and set ont with
his friends to join others who had been
driven from their names and were now
