Legend.
W1ttte's for the A0lcer County Transcript.

Written for the Mo,Der County Transcript.
Ihave heard Of q mystic legend,
Coming down from the days of yore.
OF three, who in Solem's Temple
Square, Level and Plumb-line bore.
The fame Of their Strength and Beauty
And Wisdom all lands had heard.
And they spake meath the echotug arches
The Grand Qmniflc Word.
But the column OF one was broken
And he fell at the Temple gate,
Where his jnhihnt foes in ambush
For their noble victim wait.
There was sorrow in al. .,.> oAo.>Aa-e,
For the trestle-board gave no sasn
Wthe hand that had wrought it's patterns
With skill that had seemed divine.
They sought him DER hill and valley
From East to the distant West,
And they found him beneath the acacio
Silently laid to rest.
IL there no help for the lost one2
His brethren in sorrow cry
Yes, there is help in the Nishtx
For souls that In darkness Va
And oft as the sprig at acacia
Is found on the silent tomb.
1t tells US that faith shall raise us
TO light from the realms OF gloom.
