A FATHERS LOVE.
Thousands ofDOllars Spent 10 Crafty
Dying Daughters Wish.

happened to be in Greenfield, Mass,
one day last week, aud | saw train
come in from the West having attach
ed to it drawing room coach contain
ing but three individuals. There was
a dying woman and her maid; the
third was a kindly but sad-faced old
man. The car was switched on "a side
track, the blinds were lifted, and the
wan, white face OF the woman looked
out from her couch upon the glorious
valley to the east. The December sun
was wonderfully spring like. Mists
hung upon the distant mountains, but
therich and fruitful valley was bathed
in soft and tender light, Never was
a gentler winters day and never did
human face display greater terrestrial
JOY than did she who was home
again.
The story, as heard it at the station,
was sad but interesting. A wealthy
resident of the neighborhood had a
lovely daughter She was sought for
by many, but "a young Lochinvar
came out of the West" and carried
away the prize. He took her to his lair
in the wilds of New Mexico. After a
year she sickeued, and her cry was for
her old New England home. Then,
when the end was near, her father
came, and to him the dying woman
uttered her warnings - to breathe her
last amid the scenes of her childhood
Talk about a husbands love Pshaw
What is it to a fathers or a mothers2
The husband had said it was impos
sible; the father declared her one wish
should be gratifed The doctor insis-
ted there was but week of life. The
( telegraph wires were put in motion
drawing room car and an engine
were secured and a wildcat train came
dashing madlv TO the eastln order that
a weak woman's desire might be graf
flied. Thousands of dollars were spent
and the tenderest care exercised, but
all was repaid by the JOY OF that white
/ face at the car window.
To-day she may be dead for all l
know If it be so, she has died in
peace, and fathers love has smoothed
daughters pathway to tAe grave.
How we are given to seutimentalizing
in such matters ! think Of her as of
the gentle Nell Of Dickens-no sleep
so beautiful and calm, so free from
trace Of pain, so fair to look upon
''She seemed a creature fresh from the
hand of God, and waiting for the
breath of life; not one who had lived
/ and suffered death. 50
