"a Memory"

The other evening, the Unitarian Union
gave Whittier recital very credtable to all
who took part in it. On this occasion, Rev.
DR.. Hill related an interesting incident in
connection with the poem, "a Memory" The
late N. P. Rogers, man of rare gifts of heart
and intellect, was a martyr to his enthusiasm
for the cause of liberty. He left two daughters,
one of whom was a singer, with a very sweet
contralto voice. AS the friend of their father,
Mr.. Whittier took an interest in those daugh-
tiers. Dr. Hill once visited the singer at her
home in Concord, and she told him of a
pleasant month she had been spending at
Wolfboro, N. H., where she had enjoyed the
society of Mr.. Whittier 1t may well be sup
posed that her music had afforded the poet
much pleasure, during this companionship. !
She also told Dr. Hill that her brother had re-
Gently visited Mr.. Whittier at his home in
Amesbury. and had been permitted to take a
copy of poem that had not yet been publish
ed. This copy he had forwarded to his sister,
but it was in photography and she could not
read a word of il, or find any one who could do
SO. And SO she did not even know its subject.
DR.. Hill informed her that he could read the
photographic characters. She produced the
manuscript and he read to her this poem, "A
Memory" When he had finished, he found
his listener in tears of surprise and delight,
not unmixed with confusion at having asked
him to read the poem to her 1t was her first
intimation that the poem was addressed to
herself, and that the illusions in it were to the
songs she had sung to the happy company at
Wolfboro. This little auecdote will give new
interest to the fine poem, as it is read by the
lovers of Whittier's verse.

Highway Rohneru in Lewiston,

Mr.. Fred Jones, junior member of the firm
of A. M. Jones & Son, boots and shoes, closed
his store in College Block, Lewiston, at the
usual hour Tuesday evening, and started for
home. While walking up College street, he
heard two men behind him, but paid no atten-
ton to the circumstance, it being not later
than o'clock. He was nearly opposite the
College street school house, when he received
a severe blow on the head, from behind. Be-
fore he could speak or turn, this was followed
by two or three more blows and he fell stun
ned and bleeding on the sidewalk He only
heard one word uttered by his assailants, and
that was "Hurry!" In trying to reach his
wallet, in an inside pocket, they tore button
off his coat.
In the nick of time, a young gentleman
named Will Seavy, came down the street. The
moment he hove in sight, the highwaymen
fed, without succeeding in the attempt to rob
Mr.. Jones. He had partially recovered from
his stupor, and was assisted to his feet by Mr..
Seavey. Blood was streaming from gashes in
Jones' head. His face, neck, shirt and coat
collar were covered with it, There was pool
of it on the walk He was faint and dazed.
His first exclamation was, mo; they haven't
got the money" Another traveller happened
aone. and Jones was carried to DR.. N. j.
Wedgewood's residence, where his wounds
were dressed. His head was cut il several
places, aud badly swollen.
