When the duke first looked at one Of

of others, and they actually collected

Believed Thee True"
To the present generation the name
of Mary Dun Is known only by tradi-
ticE and by Moore's poem, says the
Ladies' Home Journal Yet her career
reads like a romance. 1t was in Lon
don that she was born, 1894. Her chris
tened name was Mary Ann Dyke. When
she was Is she was known far and
wide as one of the most beautiful girls
In the neighborhood. Her poverty led
her to adopt the stage as profession,
and she and her two sisters. also OF
great beauty, became dancers at the
Dublin theater, where their singular
grace. comeliness of face and person,
attracted immediate attention and ad-
miration. Wherever the Dyke sisters
appeared the theater would be
thronged. And Mary seemed to be the
favorite of the trio. 1t was the fash
ion Of the time at Kilkenny for gentle
man amateurs to give annual public
performances for the benefit Of the poor
of the city and it was on one OF these
occasions, when the assistance OF pro-
fessional ladies from Dublin was in
voked, that Thomas Moore. the Irish
poet, was introduced to Mary Dyke,
and Immediately found himself passion
ately in love with her. 1t was in the
play, Fortunes Frolic," that Tom
Moore personated Robin Roughhead
and Mary Dyke Nancy. The Irish poet
became Mary Dykes very shadow, and
after a while he poured forth his great
love for her and offered her his hand
and his heart But. for some reason,
the beautiful Mary did not reciprocate
the wealth of affection thus offered her
and she rejected him. 1t was this
which led Moore to return to his room
and in the midnight hour pen his cele-
brated love song. beginning Mary, j

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES


The 3Oth Of May was raw and chill
In Aurora, small village near the
edge of the northern pineries. The sun
had hidden behind cloud, and a keen
blast from on the great lake swept
over the country like parting taunt
from the long furious winter that had
Just taken leave. A sharp frost
had touched the gardens Of the night
before, and the meager bounty
of bud and blossom that they yielded
for the day seemed to visibly revive
and freshen under warm, human
touch. All things partook Of the in
fluence Of the day and weather. The
somber forest that encompassed the
place took on new dignity and gloom.
Houses and fields, which a month be-
fore had been robed in an enchanted
mantle OF glistening white, and a
month hence would be gracious with
vines and fiol srs, stood out upol the
landscape in naked ugliness. The
men and women who had gathered TO
do honor to the memory OF their fallen
heroes were wrapped in sad retrospect,
looking again into open graves, or liv-
ing over anew that period of heart
breaking suspense that had ended in
tidings OF suffering and death. Even
the veterans who In q grim school had
learned lessons Of fortitude and cheer
were singularly depressed, and forgot
the gay jests and badinage with which
they were accustomed to silence pain
full memories.
Aurora and her outlying district had
sent three companies TO the war
Barely a dozen men walked in the
procession this day. Some OF the sorry
remnant that returned had gone fur
Their west in search OF health or for
tune. A few were shut up In their
homes, too weak or too broken to ven
ture out; Of those who answered the
roll-call the majority were ailing or in
firm, and mufied to the ears to pro-
pitiate the physical man for the aa-
dacity Of the spiritual.
John Sexton was one OF the younger
men among the veterans, but he had
stepped TO the door that morning,
viewed the sky and faced the biting
wind, then went to a cedar chest and
took from It q garment that had lain
there undisturbed for many years-a
blue overcoat, soiled and faded, and
with q buIlet-hole through the right
sleeve that hung empty by his sida.
The procession formed at the head
OF the main street, before the old
church in which the memorial services
had been held. Theirs were memories
clustering about Il at old frame church.
John Sexton recalled some Of them.
The first call for recruits had been
made there; the fiery, fmpetuous
