years of its Christian life were spared. in

is as much as to say that the old world made

The stock OF fun was of course, compare

Mrs Leatham on the following day, the
two being together alone in the kitchen of
the farmhouse

hast not got heart as big as a sparrow s. g
And the withered forehead of the speaker
wrinkled still deeper, and the black bead
like eyes, which were in great contrast with
her white hair, flashed tiercely 'Hanner

Mark?" .u
''They'd'n transport anybody for it, Pm

granny, to think on it,"
''l'll hit thee wi my crutch, if thee sauc-
est mel" she resumed, putting out her lean
hand, and reaching behind her chair
'Dunna thee go and tell onybody, or I'll
say it was the as said it fost" At this no
ton the thin voice broke into whistling
kind of chuckle, while the glittering ewes
looked watchlike

with half scared look, making for the
door,

and then when she was left alone in the
wide gaunt kitchen, she began to talk to
herself in an undstinct, incoherent wav
ending in an abrupt cry for ''Matty." But
the girl could not be within hearing for she
did not answer.
| Granny Leatham was aged, as her white
hair showed, and she ought to have COM
manded yeneration; but, we are sorry to
tsay, Joseph's estimate of her character was
not without warrant, harsh as it sounds. A
century ago granny would not unlikely
have been the witch of the parish aud run
risk of the horse-pond. if not of something
still worse. Her temper, which had ALWAYS
been high, seemed only to have grown bit
terer with age; and the recent misfortunes
which had overtaken the family had made
her disposition still sourer. EVERYBODY. hel
relatives included, was more or less in feal
of her, though In reality she seemed to have
little power either for good or evil, for she
was half crippled with rheumatic cramps
as well as bowed down with years. anC
could only sit all day long in the chimney
corner One exception, however, there wa,
to this repelling awe which she exercised
that which Joseph alluded to in mentioning
little Matty. This young creature wal
grannys constant companion; the two-th,
one SO old and the other so young-beins

luckily, the child showed nothing of tn
