II don't suppose l should bother about
him after the way he treated me-" said
pretty May Sample, while she wiped away
tear, but it is the baby. He did not
love il, but he was its father, and for that
reason alone must do 1t.

and marriage. How
She Had Been introduced to Him
at his Office, where some of her girl friends
took lessons in painting; how he paid her
every attention, and the grown folks urged
her to encourage him and accept him II he
proposed.
II didn't want to marry him at ALL" she
said. "The girls asked me IL / would
marry an old fellow like that, and l said /
guessed wouldn't. Then the girls told
me they wouldn't look at such an old
thing So, when he proposed to me, /
said No and ii was pitiful to see him.
He looked heartbroken.
II cont suppose / would have passed
through all this IL / hadn't left my parcel
in his Office. You see, went back for it,
and there he was
Packing Up His Things.
HE said he would go away and kill him.
self II did not marry him, and /, little
fool that was, believed him. was afraid
he would kill himself, so l promised to
marry him"

II came here little ooner than he ex-
pected," she said, ''and spoiled q scheme of
his. He told me about 1t afterward, when
we had a quarrel.
"Pll fix you yet," he said, one day, "and
IL you had nos come to Mrs. Shows first,
I'd have you settled all right. l had en-
gagged rooms for you in an asylum here,
ard would have keptyou there as pa.
tient Of mine"
Mrs 1T. 4. sire wants the marriage GER
tificate in her husbands room, but Mr..
and Mrs. Murphy refuse to give it up or
let the girl In the house. Sh' has called a
number of times and been refused.
Father McKenna, by whose order the
body was transferred to the Catholic GEM
etery, had not returned from Boston at a
late hour last night, and it is not known
whether any objection will be made to hav-
ing it taken from the Catholic cemetery
again. When giving instructions to the
superintendent of the ground, he asked that
the grave be set apart so that 1t could be
found easily, but as this was on Wednes-
day, he did not know of Mrs. st. Claires
intentions
Special significance is attached to the ie-
quest.
