I felt sadly enough as I walked along the weII-worn path to the canal boat, and thought how it had been worn by my feet more than any others, and how gladly l had walked that way, so often during that delightful summer. l forgot all that had been disagreeable, and thought only of the happy times we had had.
 It was beautiful autumn afternoon. and the wind had entirely. died away. When I came within sight of our old home, it presented doleful appearance. The bow had drifted out into the rlver. and was almost entirely under water. The stern stuck up in a mournful and rid. iculous manner, with it's keel, instead of its broadside, presented to the view of persons on the shore. As I neared the boat heard voice. stopped and lis- tened. There was no one in sight. Could the sounds come from the boat? I con- cluded that it must be so, and I walked up closer. Then heard distinctly the words: -aeF r

 It was Pomona!
 Doubtless she had climbed up the stern of the boat and had descended into the depths of the wreck to rescue her beloved book, the reading of which had so long been interrupted by my harsh decrees. Could I break ia on this one hour of rap- ture? I had not the heart to do it, and as slowly moved away, there came to me the last words that ever heard from Rudder Grange:
