Beyond the wild, unbroken woods al,

Just then sound OF stealthy steps fell soft

A dusky face paered through the door, the

1t seemed as though that year life dealt its

And then, though skies were not all clear,

And for tune smiled; the years sped on,

So she was always fair to me; think lid

A THANKSGIVING "REMINISCENCES.

q
prayers that it would be the best
10 leave our old New England home and
seek the wondrous west.
And after we made up our minds, it really
seemed 10 me
That every stone on the old farm looked
up reproachfully;
Our loving aud our grieving, one little
grave, the tears
In tender eyes, the friendships Of the long
AMI happy years.
Mountain and stream and valley seemed to
stretch OBTAINING hands
Striving to hold us there upon the rocky,
barren lands;
But we were young and hope was strong,
and life had but begun,
So we turned our eyes right bravely out
towards the setting sun.
Twas long and weary journey. but we'd
been brought up to take
Troubles with patient spirit, and l know
we did not make
Half the idle, weak complaining that they
do to-day, who are
Whirled around the world reclining in a
special palace car.
We reached the little clearing where the
low log cabin stood,
IN the early days Of April when the year
was in the bud.
A lonely looking place it was but yet We
tried to see
Through all its dreary wildness, the beauty
yet to be.
We took our work up gladly, there is no
need to tell.
There is no early settler but knows the
story we'll;
And while 1 worked in wood and field
through the long summer days,
Wife did her part Inside the house, and
you know womens ways.
Not satisfied with duty done around this
little homo,
She planted with her tired hands the tiny
seeds Of bloom,
And in the summer ended the gay mas
tur5iOns grew,
And morning glories shook their bells Of
purple, pink and blue.
Twas just sight to feed the soul for any
man will own,
AS man, of any earthly good, can live by
bread alone.
And Mary in the doorway in the early
morning light,
With the posies shining round her was q
heart uplifting sight.
The Indians, they wers plenty We saw
them every day,
A trail ran right across our field, not sixty
rods away.
And often at the open door some bead
bediZened brave
Would stop aud ask for bread or meat,
which Mary always gave.
The winter set in early; we had heard such
pretty stories
or the fair Wisconsin autumns with their
Indian summer glories;
But this year by October every single leaf
had flown,
The snow lay white upon the ground and
4 the ground was like a stone.
And trouble never singly comes, it only
opens wide
The door for others that twould seem, were
waiting just outside.
lis said they coma to us some times in
sweet deceptive guises,
But ours came quite boldiy-all sorts and
shapes and siz,s.
The crops were just a failure. We'd lost
some STOCK, and then
The ague came down on US like a troop OF
armed men;
1t acte just as though it had claim upon
the farm;
IL shook the courage from my heart, the
/ vigor from nv arm.
And when Thank giving came to us, the
day we'd held 81 dear,
The storm was raging through the woods
the world was deadly drear
There was leanness in the larder, the wood
pile sadly low;
Pain held me in It's strong embrace and
would not let me go
