as though 1t were no uncommon request
that he was about to make, said to his
son:-

his eyes as If he wished nothing more to
be said.
Young Marshall was not slow In execu-
ting his fathers wishes, and two days had
not passed before all traces of the barn
had disappeared. A few days more and
Mr.. Marshall signified his intention of go
ins home, firmly resisting all persuasious
to the contrary.

his son. And when l am all ready to go,
John. Should like TO see Mr.. Dean and
his daughter. Ask them to meet me on
the balcony"
So. leaning upon his son, a weak broken
down man, he tottered across the thresh-
old over which he had been carried two
mouths before. Sinking into an armchair,
which Mr.. Dean made ready for him,
while Alice softly arranged the pillows
about him. he said. In voice shaken with
weakness and emotion =

grasping in both his own the thin white
hand, held out to him. we shall have
you a hale. hearty old man yet. and We
shall begin anew and from this day hence
forth Marshalls aud Deans shall dwell to-

That's Just what alice has promised
me. said young Marshall, twinng his arm
about ne blue-eyed girl by his side all
tears and s.l..cs aud blashes, while the
two fathers gaLed-oue with astonishmeut
which soon changed to gladness, and the
other with u satisfied look in his eyes
which had long seen what was going on
between the young people.
Meanwhile the sun went down upon a
group the like OF which was never seen in
Silverton.
The lovers have long been happily mar
ried. and an orchard OF apple trees is now
growing where once stood "Narohall's
