well, [ remember only sort of dim,
shadowy consciousness of a crash, as
if | was being run over and trampled
on by drove of mustangs, each of
which came at me like a reversed
battering ram and gave me parting
kick towards an abyss that [ fell into,
and where, instead of falling, | fioated
slowly down into darkness and silence.
On returning to my senses, ] learn
ed that my horses had gone perpen-
dicularly up the bank with such force
that they had fallen over backward,

borers, and [ was found partly under

there is a beneicent Deity who watch
es over even the sparrows.'' And
here the widow rolled her eyes to-
wards the heavens in a manner that
was intended be most devout. Then
turning to Mrs. Gilderson, she con-
tinued- 5''} 9ai ~
Madame, [ am informed by real
estate agent in Syracuse, that you have
been so overwhelmed by grief at the
loss of your husband that you desire
to remove from a scene that must con-
stantly awaken the most painful mem
cries, and that, in fact, you have offer
ed Oakmount for sale. 1t is most
charming spot. " ~,
Mrs. Gilderson replied that Oak
mount was for sale.
$ | am in exactly the same situation
that you are, my dear madam, = said
the widow Grey. |, too, have lost a
most devoted husband land here the
widow placed her handkerchief to her
eyes and sobbed audibly). He left me
a large fortune and lovely home, but
that is no compensation for his loss.
Although my own Rosedale contains
everything necessary to make others
happy, it can no longer be home for
me; besides. as the sea air of Rosedale
affects my throat unfavorably, [ have
decided to remove into the interior,
hoping to find some relief from my
settled melancholy among new scenes
and associations. +" (Here the widow
Grey again raised the white flag, and
gave another sob.) Then turning to
me she continued: 81 think it was
almost fortunate that | lost my trunks
(and, by the way, they have not been
found yeti, for that circumstance may
lead me to make this charming part
of the country my future residence.
Would Mrs Gilderson be so kind as
to permit me to see the house?"E s..
Mrs, Gilderson accordingly led the
way on the usual tour of inspection.
On her return she expressed her gem
eral satisfaction with the premises.
and promised to bring her brother to
give them more thorough exahina-
ton at an early day. Then accosting
me she said:
l"What shall I do about my trunks,
Mr.. Duncan? Will you be returning
to the city soon, and if so, would you
be so good as to consult with one of
the best lawyers, the very best,
about the railroad company srespensi-
bility? They contained all the dia7
monds given me by my dear husband,

CHAPTER IL

81 Buy me twenty thousand bushels
barley on the best terms, said Gus
toner to me, as | was leaving his
Office the next morning; and just then
[ heard a confused noise of shouting
up the street, and saw pair of rum
away horses tearing over the pave
ment, and rapidly coming in my di-
rection. | had but just time to see
that the driver was off his seat, and
that ladies were inside, pale and
frightened, when my resolution was
made. Now, there is but one way for
a single. individual to attempt to
stop a runaway team with any chance
of success. IF you stand in front, you
are run over, for a frightened horse
sees nothing, and if you attempt 80

tably thrown to the earth like a shot
and stunned if not killed, without ac-
complishing your purpose. Pitching

as he dashed past, with the intention
of vaulting ON his back. j caught the
name, but struck heavily upon the
standards of the harness. For mo-
ment it was doubtful whether should
maintain my hold and procure firm
seat or be thrown under the
wheels; but | was soon up
with the reins in my hands, but
with very little control over the
horses. They plunged madly forward,
and | was satisfied that my best chance
was to keep them straight ahead, and
gradually soothe, them down or tire
them out. In less time than it has
taken me to describe the circumstance,
we were off the pavements and in the
outskirts of the city. Before me was
a river, spanned by a narrow bridge,
that several carriages and wagons were
then crossing. | saw at once that the
safe passage of this bridge would be
impossible-that to attempt it would
result in instant collision and a gen.,
eral smash-up, and sort of exit from
the world | confess | was not quite

and failing to make square stop,
there was nothing to do but to go at

through nor over, and if 1 could
only get the horses heads against

would not probably be fatal-unless

kind enough to break his neck. Pull

rein, I finally succeeded in bring their

THE GREAT SYRACUSE BURGLARY,
AND WHAT CAME OF 1T.
CHAPTER I.


s" SYRACUSE! twenty minutes for re-
freshments," shouted the brakeman
of a New York Central Railroad train
as, just at dusk one evening in June,
we dashed into the city Of Salt. There
were lots there, and it occurred to me
whether Lots wife might not have a
numerous progeny down below some
where intent upon givinga better SAVIOR
to the rest of mankind than was to be
found in the old unrighteous cities
their tender mother had such wick
edly retrospective eye for; at any rate a
great fountain of penitential tears has
been shed there by Mother Lot, or
mother Earth, and the Onondaga Salt
Co. make good thing of it, by first
pumping them up, and then boiling
them down.
| was going on a Western trip to
buy grain for Virgins & Co., and had
occasion to stop over day to settle
up matter of business with one of
the firms correspondents. Instead
of choking myself for twenty min
utes at railway eating house, [ walk
ed over to the Globe Hotel and or
dered supper My only companion
at table was a dashing woman of say
thirty five, got up very much in the
California grass widow style, who had
arrived on the same train as myself,
and who was lamenting the loss of
her trunks. She stated that she had
arrived at the Albany depot just as
the train was starting, and too late to
have them checked, and had left them
on the platform, with promise from
the baggage master that they should
certainly be put on board and " chalk
ed for Syracuse. @ 7ed
The reader should not imagine, be-
cause | gave the lady (she called her.
self the Widow Grey such sympathy
and advice as the circumstances seem
ed to require, that ''she was after my
own heart Indeed, / don't know
whose heart she was after, although
the departed Grey had evidently left
cavity in hers, that was not at all d.
minished by the loss of three Sarato-
ga trunks-and that she might rea-
sonably expect to have filled at some
time with the burn shed gold of new
fame. Mrs Grey took comfort at my
statement that the trunks were GER
tainly sontetohere, and that She and the
railroad company could telegraph
euerytohere for them in the morning.
With this assurance, and three cups
of green tea, she seemed in a measure
satisfied, and retired to her room,
where her portmanteau had already
been sent. - 4
The Widow Grey had one ofthe tender
sweetness, bordered with a mitigated
melancholy that first touches the
springs of pity and then, runs over
into the well of love; and it required
no second glance to show that the
widow was no lady of culture and re-
fnement; but | am always polite to
the weaker vessels, no matter what
the style of the hoops. And here, let
me suggest that the reader stick a
pin " in these Introductory paragraphs,
as the widow is to furnish the key for
the unlocking of the secret of this
veracious story - 4..y sd
