I'm Gil Romance.

Some ten or twelve wears ago, a boy and girl. as
is often the case, were among the scholars going
20 school in one of the townships few miles cast
of Meadville. The bOv. as BOYS always are, was
rather Gull and stupid, getting as a natural eonSe-
ouence many a scolding, while the girl was very
apt, and helped him with his lessons, as girls al
WAYS will. He was very grateful, OF course, and
promised TO repay her some day, "when he got TO
be man." Notwithstanding this strange prom
isc, time passed. on as usual. and when he got be a
man the war broke ont and he enlisted
In the meantime. theparents ofthe girl that was,
the woman now, having become very poor. she
was obliged to support herself So obtaining n
Mace in good family she came to Meldvllc to
work Last summer the young man was wounded
and came home. Just before his return to the
army, having re-ensted, he told her that he might,
probably, never return, that he had never forgot.

he wished il some manner 70 fulfil II; that he
had not much to offer; only the third interest in
three acres oflani on Oil Creek; that he could

but whether il was or not she might have il and
welcome. The gilt was accepted and the papers

About six weeks ago, the other two owners of
the land having gone on TO develop the territory,

The first intimation the family where she is living
had of her good fortune was last week. when the
gentlenln, who by the way, lives in of the
6nest houses in the upper end of town. having
mentioned that he had been offered $4,000 for
his property, was very mcuh astcnished when she
made him the same Offer and said if the house
was sold she wanted to buy it as a home for her

A Poem Rscited by mr.. Lincoln.
q Tie Editors OF tie EreRinq Post :

A uie Editors or tse EreHing Post:
have been urged BY several friends to send you
the enclosed poem, written down By myself from
Mr. Llncoin's lips and although itmay not be new
to all of your readers. the events of the last week
give It now peculiar interest.
The circumstances under which this copy was
written are these: was with the President alone
one evening in his room, during the time ] was
printing my large picture OF the White House, Inst
year Tie presently threw aside his pen and papers.
and began to talk to me of Shakespeare. He sent
little "Tad," his son. to the library TO bring coyy
of the plays and then read TO several ut his ia
vvrite Passages, showing genuine appreciation Of
the great poet. Relapsing into sldder strain,
he laid tho book aside and leaning back in his
chair, said:
There Is a poem which has been great favor
tie with me for wears, which was first shown 10 me
when Young man by friend, and which after
ward and cut from newspaper and learned bv
heart would" he continued, .'give great deal
10 know who wrote it, but | have never been able
TO ascertain"
Then half closing his eyes ne repeated to me the
lines which enclose to you. Greatly pleased and
Interested, told him | would like, If ever op-
portunity occurred, to write them down from his
lips. lie said he would some time try t. give
them - me. few DAYS aftcrward he asked me
10 accompany him 10 the temporary studio of Mr..
Swayne. the sculptor, who WAS making bust OF
him at the Treasury Department While he was
sitting for the bust was suddenly reminded of the
poem, and said to him that then would be a good
time to dictate il to me. He complied, and sitting
upon some books at his feet: as nearly rs | can
remember, I wrote the lines down, one By one
from his lips.
With great regard, very truly yours,
