Cemetery. Commencing at the end of
the walk in front of W. J. Laubender's

The letter Of President Arthur Leary, Of

singing old songs. till the latter chose part

of course, and the girl choosing a young
man. They kissed each other, and then tine
chosen couple took their place in the centre,
while two who had just occupied that posi-
ton went into the ring.
But a sinister event finally put an end to
these parties and to the ring plays, which had
probably been continued up to that time from

The son of q wealthy farmer was smitten
by the charms aud graceful demeanor Of the
poor girl, and bis love was fully returned.
He had continued to visit her every evening
regularly for several months, when her
mother imagined that sitting mp 30 late every
night was preiudicial to her health. She
spoke to Esther on the subject and the
young girl, fearing no evil. as she intended
no wrong, spoke to her lover about 1t that
very evening when he called, as usual, to sit
up till IL O'Clock with her.

the young girl, and being up 30 late must

The young man heard her out and then,

Richard did not come back. He was per-

Esther was seized with q severe illness. and
languished a long time before hopes Of her

that The strange girl would not come there;
while others predicted hat Richard would
make the distance an excuse for not attend

than usual. Hour passed after hour, and the
yelled stranger did not MAKE her appearance.
At length, Just a. the clock struck twelve,
the unknown was observed seated in the
corner of the room.
Richard was at that moment talking nom

that there was a general silence in the apart

veil.
Without a word he walked up to her,
raised her veil. and, with q loud cry, fell
senseless on the floor. In another moment i

Every means was resorted to for the pur-

Richard just glanced in at the open door,
observed the girl seated near a window, her
face hidden behind a green veil and then,
turning to his companions, resumed his pas
time and thought no more of the matter.
some one who watched the girl after the
party broke up said that he lost sight of her
as she reached some trees which skirted the
old graveyard.
