They made another grave by

they buried George. His heart
broke when the arrow entered it,
but Nellie still lives and down in
the alleys and streets of New York,
where sin riots in its worst form,
and intemperance rears its ugly
head, you will often find white
faced women, clothed in deepest
black, with a voice and mien which
win strangely upon the squallid
wretches who know her from all the
city missionaries who come among
them, listening to her and needing
what she says as they heed and
listen to no one else. That is Mel
lie ; and more than one youth walks
the street to-day a sober, honest
man, who but for her would have
filled drunkard's grave, and added
another to the number of the lost.
She never mentions Harry to any
living person, but every summer
she goes back to his grave, and lay
lug her face upon the turf which
covers it, cries nightly to Heaven
for pardon in that she first tempted
her boy to sin.

that coffin and the grave where
they buried it there clustered no
bright hopes of a future when the
