the events of my story commenced.

which, that the log cabin which
was tie home of the heroine, stood
surrounded by a forest. Tho real
names OF the actors in this tragedy

legend, and | therefore substitute
the names which come to my mind.
IL have finished my spinning,
Robert, and shall carry the yarn
home to-day. | think | will spend
the day with Mrs. Green, and wish
you would come and meet me and
bring the baby home," said the
young wife, taking the linen yarn
i'll her apron and the baby on her
arm.

shoulder for the wheat fields. His
lot had been burned over and sown
to wheat, but the huge stumps OF
the old trees, and the thick under
ground roots in the new land, pre-.
vented the use of the plow.

fresh soil, with the. strange wood
sound about him, eating his lnnclI
at noon from his little basket, until

his wife. A mile or two in the for

his clearing. He went on without
meeting his wife and baby until he
got to his neighbours door.

The two men went together thr,
