aud bent every faculty to cheer and sup
port the poor, helpless, injured fellow.
Granville again and again detailed to
her every word and act of that morning,
until it was as if she had been an actor
in the fearful scene, where the beautiful
woman, with smiling face, had schemed
and accomplished her brothers ruin.
Utterly crushed in mind and body,
Granville lay yet in the city prison, too
i'll to be moved. And as it to destroy
the last glcam of light his darkeued life
was ever TO know, one morning Nelly
failed to come. But at night the warden
came to him with note from the poor
girl. She begged of him to hold body aud
soul together for just little time, for
her sake-for Edith's. She had en-.
listed the sympathy of a prominent Off
cial, who had promised her he should
not be moved from his present quarters
for two months; under the plea of his
illness he should be detained until she
got back; where she was going she would
not say. But again she passiouately
burst forth and begged him not to con
sign her to madness, by giving WY to
the trouble that beset him. To wait
patiently only two months. That was
all she asked, aud with this prayer
Nelly was gone.
