thing that caused them both 10 stop. A

put these to a good use. The head of
each grave was soon surmOunted by

roses was made and reverentIy placed
on each mound. Then, satisfied that
her duty was done, Nancy stepped out
into the road, to return.
Nancy, there's a red coat" whis-
pered Betty, pulling at her sisters
dress.
Nancy glanced up and saw soldier
standing before her. Without doubt
he had been watching her all the time,
and as she thought of the warning of
the placard her face grew pale.
What have you been DOING" asked
the soldier.
Decorating the graves of my brother
and his friend, whom you hung"
He looked at her moment in silence;
then turning, left her without a word.
And Nancy, never knowing that she
had just been doing a deed which al
most a hundred years later the new ma
ton would take up and make national
custom. also turned, and in silence
sought her home, to comfort her heart

John made no reply. What could he

silent, too; with hopeless eyes they
looked about them in their despair.
Hank! Some one was coming. Tom
looked up and saw Capt. Eddy and
band of his men. Their faces were
flushed, and as they came into the camp
the boy could see that he was almost
beside himself with rage.
The young sergeant stepped up to the
caDtain and said a few words which
Tom could not hear; but there was no
doubt about their effect. Suddenly Capt.
Eddy turned, and approaching the
PROSTATE boys said: They did, did
they? String 'em up! String 'em up on

of Tarleton's men. Then, at a signal
from the leader, they all arose and
stood together, waiting for the final
word The gray of the dawn had al

upon the stiffness of the early morning.

these could be reached, however, a vol
ley rang out. The startled men no
longer sought their guns. They darted
into the woods in every direction, intent
now only upon their own safety. But
not all went. There were cries and
groans, and many fell TO the ground.
Are you hit, Tom?" said John The

moment both fell PROSTATE on the
ground and lay still. Over them swept
pUrsuers and pursued. Others lay on
the ground close by, but with them
there was no deceit. Some were groan-
ing or crying, some would never speak
again. Above all sounded the shouts
of the soldiers farther and farther away.
For half an hour the boys did not
move, even to raise their heads. Some
one might be watching, and the slight
est sign might mean for them a real,
not a feigned death. But at last Tom
heard party approaching. Slowly he
turned his head. Yes, there they were,
a dozen at least, and he thought they
wore no uniforms. 1t must be that the
attacking party were now returning.
So thought Tom, and suddenly standing
upright, he called to his companions:
Come on, John, we're all right now.
they've driven the tories of and were
among friends again"
Suddenly he stopped and looked in
confusion at the men before him. He
had made a mistake; they were not the
men who had made the attack. There
was the young sergeant, and beside him
were some of TarletOn's men whom he
recognized at once.
In confusion he was about to turn and
run, when he was suddenly surround
ed; before he could offer any resistance
his hands and feet were securely bound,
and he was thrown heavily upon the
ground. John was served in a similar
manner. Then the young officer said:
