Mrs. La Nergne declared it would be
Impossible for her to eat anything until
! her child could be found and restored
to her, and the rest sat down TO the
table, Tut none ate with their usual APP
| petltcs. The men forced themselves,
| hmricdly to swallow few mOuthfulS,
but they did not feel any hunger to sat
iSiy. What little eating was done was
performed in silence the ears of each
intently listening orthe sounds Of foot
steps outside that would tell them the
missing girl was returning.
Just as they We're rising from the
table they did indeed hear the sound Of
approaching steps, and CLEAN of hope
lighted the face of each, but it was
quickly dispelled, although they were
glad to see Mr.. Morrison the preacher,
in the person of the conner lie greeted
them by the familiar titles of brothers
and sister, but noting the anxiety that
was plainly to be seen in their faces,
he looked up at Mr.. La Vergne inquir-
ingly.
Mr.. La Vergne understood the ques-
tioning glance. and FASTENED to answer:
"Our daughter Carrie left the house
this morning in search Of some flowers
had directed her where to find, and
has not been seen since. We fear she
is lost or has met with harm. We are
about to start in search for her, and if
you will excuse us and sit down to the
table and take supper and try to
cheer my wife during our absence, we
will set out"
"Thank you Brother La Vergne. |
took tea with neighbor just half
hour ago, and | think the best consola-
ton can offer Sister La Vergne, will
be to join You in the search. am GER
tain can do much more good with YOU
than can here"
Yes, go with them Mr.. Morrison"
pleaded Mrs. La Nergne, "fOr | know
you can render them valuable assist
ancp. But" checking herself as she
realized that her words might seem to
imply that she did not desire his COM
pany," do not think me inhospitable that
l would rather You should go than re-
main, but | know your knowledge of
the woods is great, and | believe you
