fact with exceeding regret and trust thai
his mind will speedily be restored TO sound

has been far from good for some time. The

is that of fsnlying imselfimmensely rich.

One beautiful morning in summer
saw two children at play
The lad looked weary and sober
The maiden looked happy and CAV
The lad was beneath the yeranda
AT play with the toys of art
The maiden was out in the sunshine
And songs welled up from her heart
And this Is the song she was singing
Why oh Why will you tarry
Where fingers the shadows of night

Unto his musical strain
seemed TO bear voices Of apgess
