it seems like an age to me, ! cannot endure this
separation much longer and live near you, my
mind is constantly wandering back to happy mo-
ments spent in your company, moments which
fear have past and gone forever, but will not
give you up, you may love me yet, will live in
hopes and dreams of happier days to come, oh,
Rachael you have made an unhappy man Of me,
exult not in your triumph for your turn may come
nert, saw you last night sitting in front of the
house, with some man seemingly happy and con-
tented, no thought of him whose breast is nearly
broken marred your pleasure, no sigh for him
who would sacrifice his life for you, escaped your
bosom and rs gazed upon you with tears in my
eyes, asked myself, can it be possible that she
is heartless, can it be possible her VOWS of love
eminated from the lips and not the heart, and as
reflected over the matter, my heart told me it
must be so, for you could at least have written
me note, as you could find means of sending it
to the Post Office, while had tried all means of
time had failed, but will not think unkindly of
you until have the proof from your own lips or
pen. / sometime think that he compelled you to
play part which your heart did not sanction,
but time alone can develop the truth in that
respect. And now Rachael, l have but one
request to make Of you, for my sake, for your
own sake, and in the name of your father,
mother, and everything on earth, in heaven
or hell, that is near or dear to you, tell me
the truth, and if you do not care for tell so
frankly, huu Wall pless you IL, On tHS Otuer
hand your propositions oflove were sincere, leave
that house; go with me. do not care if you have
to leave with but one dress; l will take care of
you either here or elsewhere, you may wish;
you shall never have cause to regret it. If you
love him, stay with him; but be honest, and tell
me the truth. shall wait and watch for your
answer with the deepest anxiety. Good by, dear,
until hear from you. Ever truly yours, DAN.
P.S. Think of the sacrifice am willing to make
for you, think of what have already sacrificed,
and leave that place at once. You have no sacri.
fee to make in taking the step, for know all now
