brothers story, and like a flash was suggested the opportunity for revenge. Commanding John to keep close under cover of the woodsuntil'nightfall when he would again return, the older brother returned to his home.
 "At ten o'clock the brothers repaired to graveyard near by and disinterrcd the remains of a young man who had poisoned himself three days previously. Placing the body in a bag Reginald compelled the frightened John to carry the grewsome load to spot near Mr. Richley's garden. There the body was dressed in Johns clothes; the face mu- tilated and the other details attended to carefully, including the hat and coat which was borrowed from the house-farmhouses had few locks and bars in those days. John was given money enough to carry him distance and his weak mind was duly impressed with the horri b1e fate awaiting him if he ever returned or made known his whereabouts So sternly had this fear been impressed on the poor fellows mind that even in his dying moments hs raised himself on his elbow and gazed around fearfully."
 There was moments pause, when the drummer ceased talking, when one ! of the more curious said:
 "But what became of Lucy?'

swore positively and grave suspicion was engendered through their state ment
 "As for my uncle, he merely laughed these positive statements sto scorn and gladly encouraged a thorough search of his garden which would prove the fallacy of the foul suspicion. "His suggestion was accepted promptly, and together with party, Reginald leading the way, my uncle repaired to his garden and the search began.
 "'Point to the spot where you saw me digging said my uncle.
 Right there, sir,' answered both the men at once, pointing toward a cluster of bushes about thirty feet away.
 About five minutes elapsed, when there was a frightened exclamation from the diggers, and hat was pro duced, later the badly decomposed re- mains of a man was brought to the surface.
 My uncle gave just one look at the grewsome object then staggered back with strange, gasping, hopeless cry, and said:
 My God, men, Is it possible?' and was ever afterward as one in a dream.
 ''There were no doubts in the minds of any concerning the identity of John Hiram. His clothing, a cut across the face, a fractured skull and lastly a brass ring in the lobe of the right ear, which the deceased had been accus- toned to wear, all went to prove that this was the missing man; that he had died from the effect of blow admin istered, and that he had afterwards been buried to conceal the crime.
 My uncle declared his innocence in a weak way, was found guilty and sem fenced to serve term of thirty years. He confessed on the stand that from early childhood he had been sleep walker, and that on the morning fol- lowing the day of John Hiram's disap- pearance he had found his coat and hat lying on the veranda. This, he said, was strange circumstance, as he in- variably hung these articles of apparel on the hall rack. Therefore my uncle had become convinced that with a trace of the anger still haunting his brain and an uncomfortable suspicion hanging over him, he had arisen in the night, put his hat and coat on and sought the body of the man he had killed and buried it in the garden. ''My uncle only lived one year of his sentence and died praying forgiveness for his terrible sin.
 "Reginald Hiram went to the war and was shot before the battle of Shiloh, accused of being a spy.
 ''One day shortly after the close of the war a man lay dying in hospital in St. Louis. The deposition he made created quite a furore at the time. He was the missing John Hiram, and the terrible revenge on my uncle had been concocted out of the willy brain of the older brother.
 ''On the day so memorable to my uncle, and following the chastisement he had received, John Hiram had sought the cover of the woods. There the two brothers met quite by acci dent. Reginald soon heard the injured

story. After a moments hesitation our entertainer resumed his seat and remarked: Well, gentlemen, my stocks about run out, and this is not good tale to go to bed on, but here goes;
 'In 1861, my uncle, Benjamin Rich ley, was tried, found guilty and sen- fenced to thirty years in the peniten' tiary. The alleged crime was murder; the victim one of his farm hands.
 "Benjamin Richley was wealthy farmer, and his farm was located in what is now a suburb of St. Louis. He was a widower with one daughter whc was, so to speak, the apple of the old mans eye. He had no other relations, or if he had, did not recognize them The old gentleman was known to pos |ess an ungovernable temper when aroused, and was also noted as being an honorable, just man.
 Adjoining the farm lived John Hiram, who had two sons, one named John, weak-witted young man, and Reginald, an older brother, who lived, it was said, by his wits in the adjoining city. The younger brother was occa' ,ionally employed by my uncle to dc
 
 such times a source of unceasing worry to my energetic uncle, owing to his in lolent habits.
 "Reginald, the ne'er-do-wen chap, fell in love with Lucy Richley, and ot course when the old gentleman heard of his wooing, he flew into one of his white heat passions and threw the young man out of his house bodily.
 
 | would get even eventually, although no one ever heard him boast of such d re. solve.
 The following day my uncle, while l passing through the garden, saw John sitting in fence corner idly cracking nuts with a stone. The irascible gen. tleman again flew into a rage, and, upon receiving an impudent retortr reached for hoe lying near by, and in his blind rage struck him repeatedly with the iron blade. The man stag | gered back Q step or two, uttered 8 strange cry, then dashed over the fence and made for the cover of the woods not far distant.
 "A day passed, then a week, and g vain search ensued for the missing John Hiram No one had seen him since the day of the trouble, and no one haG witnessed the little scrimmage. My uncle bitterly repented his foolish pas sion and personally exerted strenuoul efforts to find the missing man.
 1.-TWO weeks had gone and still nC John. What had become of him? Tht neighborhood was now thoroughly aroused; the police were notified, anC an official investigation followed. M. uncle repeated his story in connection with the disappearance. Then cam' the grand denouenent.

To substantiate this two re spectacle men, farmers, who lived tw miles from the Richley farm, swor s that they had seen my uncle digging i , his garden at twelve o'clock on tn !; night following the day of John Hiram g disappearance.
