| satisfacti0n:
IL rather think those two impetuous pat
| rolmen have left the service"
Then, being q man Of careful and me
| thOdical habits, never neglecting or defer
ring duty, he deliberately proceeded to
extract couple of cartridges from case
| in his pocket and reloaded The emptied
chambers of his revolver. just ~ he was
putting ON the caps he was startled by an
exclamation from the young girl:
lob! Granny! What's de matter wld ye!'
| The fright and anguish in her tone gave
| him 90 sudden shock that he dropped his
| pistol into the bottom of the boat and stood
| up. As he did 90 he heard Aunt Dinsh re.
ply:
| at the gates now"
Up to this moment she had not uttered
sound of pain or q word of complaint. but
Fairfax, with keen sy mpathy and quick ap-
| probation, recognized in her feeble voice
| that some great change had befallen her.
Lightly stepping past the rover, he ap
preached her, inquiripg kindly:
'Are yon hurt, Aunt Dinshf"
EYES, sah," she replied gently; "de gem
| man on boss back shot me h'yer in de
| breast"
Little Jenny gave wall of bitter grief
and Fairfax felt the tears in is eyes, for
| he heard death IN the tones of the poor old
| fugitive.
"But l don't complain" che continued,
catching her breath from time to time with
q painful effort; "de Lords faithful servant,
Moses, warn't lowed for to en- or de prom

The old wOman's voice grew very faint,
and each moment she spOke more slowly,
yet she went on:
tell him, Dress de Lord for He is
good an His mercy endured forebber-
though He slsy me, yet v ill trust in Him."
The early sunbeams on the lifting fog
made it seem golden pathway for angels
feet mp to the gates of the beautiful CITY not
made with hands. Reverently Fairfax and
the rover barred their heads, Jenny buried
her face in her hands and sobbed - though
her young heart would break.
As the boat Deared the Ohio shore, the
old womaH's voice ceased. The weary
heart had at length, indeed. found rest.
The fugitive had become the martyr.

and o wild love for psrilous adventure,
easily decided him to devote the best years
of his manhood to the hazardous service of
the underground railroad" He was
brave, we'll educated, possessed of excellent
personal address, an adept in disguise,
and rather prided himself upon the fact
that he dsred to travel through and
operate in half q dozen Southern
States, in the very communities which
had . score Of times offered re'
wards ranging from 500 to $3.50. for the
that Ben had told of the purpose Of his
presence on the Witherell estate was strict
" true. BE had, by some means best
kno wn to himself, made the acquaintance
of young Mr.. Witherell, and come here
under an assumed name, of course-ex-
pressly to assist in the escape of the slave
woman Chloe, and incidentally to help off
any others who might be DESTROYS of max
ing bold stroke for liberty. He did not
pitality which he accepted in carrying out
this mission, for he took high ground upon
property rights where the claims of slave
holders were concerned. He argued to
himself that the master was but nOminally
rich by the possession of wealth of which
he had defrauded his slaves; that the mas
ter was but the dishonest steward who
could claim NO credit for generosity in dis
posing Of that which belonged to others.
But 1t 10 scarcely necessary to follow him
in the train of reasoning BY which he sus-
tanned the morality, entire integrity and
propriety of his action. That which he did
Is Of much greater Importance to our story
than what he thought. His actual ex.
penses here were paid, as was customary in
such cases, by the fugitive whom he repre-
eented and the liberal contributions of
Northern abolitionjsts, who devoted many
thousands of dollars annually to keeping
the underground railroad in active opera
ton.
While gambling and drinking with the
rogant airs affected bv the so Younger scions
Of the slaveholding aristocracy, he had
found means to communicate with the
slaves of the plantation, using always the
most careful judgment in selecting those to
whom h ventuIed to confide secret which
imperiled his life ut every moment. The
woman Chloe he felt sure of, and Uncle
Ben he knew at first sight he could trust
implicitly; still. even in his commune alton

Soon after it had sounded the Overseer went
his rounds to see that all were at homo.
When he reached Aunt Dinah's cabin he
looked in, and saw Jenny asleep on the
floor near the hearth. She was ali he cared
about there. But for her he would not have
troubled himself to see whether the old
woman was in her cabin or not; would, in
deed, have scarcely cared whether she we're
alive or dead, for the day of her usefulness
up with every promise Of being an unusual
~ handsome, hght-colored girl, and was,
consequently. valuable property for the
Southern market, or at least would be so in
Q year or two more. He little Unsigned
that the old woman crouching there BY the
sm0ldering embers of her little fire felt in
her veins to night the pulsations Of . second
youth, born Of love and hope, and that she
contemplated . daring deed for the rescue
from slavery of the sleeping girl ut her
feet
As soon a. his steps died away in the dis
tance Aunt Dinah awoke Jenny, and, draw
ing her close. whispered in her ear:
"My dear chile, know can trust ye.
You've allus been good to yo' poor old
granny, an tonight she's q gw1ne for to

eyed wonder.
"Yes, chile. De ole mans waitin' for US.

Jenny, child as che was. responded
promptly and nobly to this first appeal to
her womanly resolution, drawing unoon-
sciously an inspiration in her reply from
the fervent language which she was accus-
toned to hear from the old woman's lips.

some degree, relaxed. but patrols were still
kept up along the river bank and dire
threats were made of condign punishment
of any slaves caught in endeavoring to run
away. These, with the renewed obstacle
of the open river and the fatigues incurred
in the hard labors Of spring blowing, corn
planting, tobaccG-hoeing, and other occupa-
lions incident to the season, proved suffi-
cient to restrain the colOred people from
continuing their struggles for freedom. and
gradually matters sank into pretty much

vicinity of the whitehall plantation, COM
ing northward frem Tennessee. He trav-
eled on horseback, by short stages, and
held frequent revival meetings along the
way. His fame a. an eloquent preacher
preceded him, and wherever he WAS an
nounced to speak crowds, both white and
black, assembled to hear him.
To the negroes, before the war at least,
religion was more than Q mere encourage
ment of hope for the Life to come, it was
vital necessity of their present, Q susten-
ance for their hungry and weary souls
which seemed to have an almost miraculous
power in comforting them and enabling
them to bear the hardships and sorrows OF
their daily lives. Their ardent and impress
sionable natures felt such realization Of
the promises of Him who is not lees our
Heavenly Father than our Divine Master,
that, while in the fervor of their religious
exercises, they forgot tho lowliness of their
condition, the misery and the hopelessness
of their existences, and their hearts thrilled
with joyous consciousness that they we're
standing in the actual presence of the Low
ing One who died that men might live for
live eternal.
On the Sunday when Brother Blanken.

church Of Little B ethel" on the edge Of

fee was crowded. with the white people Of
the neighborhood, while the blscks cluster
cd thickly about the doors and windows,
wherever they could hear. At the close OF
the somewhat protraosed morning service,
