As he sat on the porch that evening, .
silent, disconsolate figure, he heard a
jolly laugh and baby's pretty cooling.
1t proved to be Sugy-Honey and her
new charge.
The baby was q lovely little fellow,
just beginning to prattle. Whom Sugy-
Honey put him down from her lap he
toddled in the most matter-of-fact way
to Col. Henson, put his hands on the
colonels knees and chatted necessarily
in his pretty, lisping lingo.
The colonel soon commenced to take
little interest in farm matters; to in
quire of Jake how many OF the old
negroes were still on the place; what
crops he planted, and to give some ad-
vice as to their cultivation. Yet it was
plain that his day began when Sugy-
Honey came with the baby and ended
when they left. He still had no idea
who the little one really was, for all
were afraid to tell him.
Thus the summer days passed.
Hannah often reported progress to
Mary, who was cheered by her IA

He had never yet mentioned her name.

upon her with the old fondness? She

and her husband and Hannah thought
over all the possible and impossible
ways of bringing about reconcilia-
ton, but none of them could devise
plan that appeared safe and feasible.

and the baby made their usual pill
grimage to the old place.

ing baby in a rug. Their hands and
arms were severely burned, but the
baby escaped miraculously. Though
all his pretty curls were gone and his
outside clothing burned, yet the
wooden garment next his body was
scarcely scorched.
Col. Henson had worked with will,
and while he was rolling and rubbing
the baby form he was mentally max
ing an almost unconscious vow:
"oh Lor /, spare this little one | had
begun to love, and will no longer
waste my life Only let me save the
baby from hideous death and will
arouse from my lethargy, will soften
my heart to my only child and take
her into my life again
All this and much more he vowed
while life and death hung in the bal.
ance, and while he and Sugy-H Honey
were winning the victory.
At last the danger was past; the
baby had ceased crying and was giving
one of his ripping laughs over caper
his nurse was executing for his bene-
fit. A swift rush of skirts was heard,
for bad news flies quickly, and the
baby's mother, with open arms and her
heart in her eyes, was in the room,
hugging first the baby and then her
father, then laughing and crying,
talking and explaining all at once.
Hannah, who stood in the doorway,
with uplifted, streaming eyes, ex.
