 When George came out of jail he was not the same man lie had hitherto been. His health and spirit were broken down and he felt that he could never settle quietly again at Mill Hilt This latter conclusion he came to while yet imprisoned at Stagbor ough and before the news of Rachel's abduction reached him. But when he did hear that his sister was missing his rage, though silent was intense. He quickly made arrangements to give up his farm and resolved to devote his tune to seeking his sister.
