take little exercise and enjoy the
the fresh air. She hoped that she
might hear bird sing, or see some
little wild flower which would speak
to her of her future hope, for her
heart was full of anxiety and sorrow.
After walking some distance, she
came to a rope-walk. She was ia
miliar with the place, and entered.
At one end of the building she saw
a. little boy turning large wheel;
she thought it too laborious for such
achild, and as she came near she
spoke to him.

asked.
