a tangible form, and that his arrows were
being aimed for his destruction.
One sorrowful day there came a great
er loss. The hand of paralysis was laid
upon the meek and ever-submissive wife,
and she lay for hours in that death-in-
life which is so horrible and so inscruta-
bic. Now was the cup of calamity full
and running over. Never demonstra-
tive nor very loving husband, the Dea-
con had felt true respect and COM
placent proprietary affection for the
woman who had given him herself in
the radiant bloom of her girlhood, when
she had chosen him from many suitors.
Always had she been faithful wife,
diligent, frugal and obedient to his wish
es. When she passed softly away. amid
the sobs of her children, he shed no
tear; but Gods lightning had, never
theless, smitten his soul. When she
lay, queenly, in silent state, in the
house where she had been rather chief
servant than mistress, he sat for hours
in the room, living over the long
years, and suffering poignant remorse,
which none knowing the man would
have imagined possible. When he fol-
lowed the hearse tofthe family lot where
the Camerons had been buried for gen.
eratiOns, he was bowed under an an
guish as deep as it was unspeakable.
Agnes slid her hand into his; but he
scarcely felt the pressure. though he
suffered her to lead him home like lit
tie child, after the earth had been packed
upon the coffin.
A few days crept on-interminably
long in the abode of mourning-and one
night the family were gathered for wor-
ship. The Deacon took the Bible, and
| slowly turned the leaves until he came to
the sixty-sixth Psalm. In voice low
and full of emotion he read these words
"For thou, o God, has proved us.
| Thou hast tried us as silver is tried
| Thou broughtest us into the net. Thou
laidest affiiction upon our loins. Thou
hast caused men to ride over our heads
