CHAPTER XIII.
THE COTTAGE AT THE sLoUGy.


Avery happy little group it was that
sat under the new porch of the shanty
until long after the stars came out that
night.
So many changes had taken place;
there was so much to talk about that it
was ten o'clock before they once
thought of the time, and still they
talked on for another hour before retir-
ing-the family to their beds and Eras-
tus to bunk on the floor.
The young man remained three days
with them, and during that time they
talked over all matters relating to fam
lily atiairs-past, present and future.
Mrs and Mr.. Parsons of course
gladly gave their consent to the en-
gagement of the young people, but it
was necessary to postpone the wedding
until Erastus could get his place irri-
gated and i'll shape to produce living.
1t seemed very hard to part again so
soon, but since he could no. take
Lucy with him, every day spent away
from his own ranch delayed their mar
riage that much the longer.
And then there would be the pleas
ure of writing and receiving letters,
which, of course, they would do every
week at the farthest.
The project of selling the mountain
ranch and all going to the Slough to
live was talked of, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Parsons agreed that when Erastus got
his place irrigated and was ready to
marry, II he was satisfied with the
country and the prospect, they would
sell their own home and buy again as
near him as possible, and if not they
would both sell and go elsewhere and
buy together.
And thus all were comforted by the
thought that Lucys marriage. when it
should occur, would, instead of sepa-
rating her from her parents. reunite
them all with Erastus. and it is prob
able that for these three days the in
mates of the shanty upon the mount
ain side were as happy as it often falls
to the lot OF people to be.
Certainly John Parsons was happy
Lucy and Erastus wandered about the
place. and through the gulch and up
the mountain side together
Together they went for the COWS. as
Lucy had done alone the night Erastus
came.

With his arms about her, telling her
over and over again how dear she was
to him, and how it was because he
thought she could not love him as he
wished, that he had gone away, the two
might have stood there until the sun
had hidden itself from sight behind the
mountains and the night had come up
from the valley below, but that the
roam horse, in his efforts to nibble at
the grass by the roadside, jerked so
hard upon the bride which Erastus
held upon his arm as to bring them
back to q knowledge of their surround
ings.
Then they started slowly homeward
along the by-road that wound around
the rocks. and over the stones, and in
and out of gullys washed by centuries
of rainy seasons.
So slowly in fact did they 60 on that
the cows, lazy as they were, had got
home and been MIXED, and Mrs. Par
sons had looked many times in the di-

which she knew Lucy had started in

long absence, she suggested to her hus-
b nd that he go up the mountain lit
tie way and call, and he, quick to
take the alarm, was on tho point of
starting when he saw the lovers ap-
proaching; the roam horse following
the length of his bride rein behind.
For little space John Parsons stood
in doubt. then raised his hand to his
eyes as if to gather more of the failing
light.
Only an instant he stood so, and then
bringing his hand down upon his thigh
with n slap he excla'med:
