Here gave the shovel tremendous push,
fairly pushing the words out of my mouth.
They flew over the fence and struck the ear
OF slim gentleman passing by.
"Was it ~ said he kindly. / looked up. un-
conscious that had spoken aloud, and met a
iace-a lace had seen frequently in dreams
and photographs. l could not have been
mlstaken-and yet there was no embroidery
upon bis coat, no rose in his button hole.
had held conversation with him dozen
times, at least in magnation-conversatio
on my part at least, which would have de-
lighted the heart of Webster Worcester and
the man who invented grammar, but now
dropped my shovel and one glove and ex-
claimed -
81 do declared 1t was useless to attempt
elegant language after that. My face turned
the color of Tins comforter, while l tried to
apologize or explain, and then, hardly
know how it was, l cannot tell in what
words, but almost before l knew it, l had
told him the whole story. You should have
seen his face! That man has an immortal
soul, for | isaw it in his eyes. 1 even told
him of school, and he asked where taught,
but | said nothing, l think of the future pres
ident. | am not sure, however; not very sure
of any oft, When he went he put his hand
over the pickets of the fence and gave him
mine, which was very red and cold, but he
did not seem to mind, and then he lifted his
hat and strolled off toward the river with a
patch OF snow upon his elbow from our
gate.
A little later, when he was to read in Hart
ford. there came a yellow envelope to our
| school-house one day, directed to "The As
| sistant Teacher of the-St. School" Within
| it was another addressed 10 "The young LADY,
who teaches a, b, abs, to the future President
of the United States" So l must have told
him after all. Enclosed were two tickets for
his reading and railroad tickets down to
Hartford and back. 1t was great question
whether should acknowledge the receipt of
them or not.
What if he has forgotten it already?" said

Your obligation is the same" mother re-
| piled, for she believed as firmly as l that they
came from Mr.. Oickens's hand.
L searched the woods tor trailing arbutus
and having gathered bunch, pink and sweet
scented, inclosed it, with the grateful thanks
of the Springfield girl who teaches "a, b, abs. y
| L hesitated long time over the grateful
thanks" but one word could not possibly ex-
press it,
Then mother and went to Hartford. We
| brushed up the old brown velvet, and Dil.y
| lent her green gloves. L was little surprised
and disappointed in his face, and yet it must
have been the same, and you can imagine
how proud and happy we were when Mr.
Dickens came out upon the Platform with a
punch OF trailing arbutus in his button-nole.
