CHAPTER XII.
Copyright. 1896. by the Author.l

Preaching at early candlelight, {"
the presiding elder had said in giving
out the order of services at the close of
his Sunday sermon, but it was far past
the early dusk before single minister
came. There were three besides Brother
Walton. Brother Green, Bethel's in
cumbent, poor speaker, but powerful
in prayer and unequaled in pastoral la
bors, was not expected 10 preach many
times. The visitors would do that. Still
It was in him that the devout founded
their hope for season of refreshing.
Wherever he had been sent heretofore
revivals had followed his ministry, the
hopeful took heart, the discouraged lift
ed the head, and even the sinners avow-
ed that Brother Green beyond all others
brought home to them their lost estate,
yet gave no offense in the bringing.
Nioeties of doctrine, you see, were
left ont of revival preaching. Instead
there was Jesus Christ and him cruel
fed, the unsearchable riches of his love,
the ineffable pathos of his all sufficient
sacrifice. The heart, not the head, was
the point of attack, except OH Sunday
morning, when the presiding elder
preached. A tall man, shrewd, kindly,
clear headed enough to rule state and
full enough of love to God and man to
bend every energy to their reconcile
ment, he had raised the standard of the
cross as became leader in the church
militant, then gone his way to other
fields, secure that it would be strenuous
ly upheld. For besides Brother Green
and young Brother Walton there was
Brother Milliken, the local licentiate.
He was old, so old he bent under his
weight of years, yet still so full of zeal
and fire he carried his listeners along
with him. Almost wholly unlettered,
he had yet rude and simple dignity, a
sincere eloquence, that put the school
men often to the blush and made their
studied art seem poor and mean.
AS the ministers came in each made
his way to the high box pulpit, knelt
minute in silent prayer, then rose to sit
beside his brethren. Brother Walton
was to preach, and expectation was on
edge, since it had been bruited about
that he was not less eloquent than the
famous Maffit, of whom the elder mem
bers had many memories. Brother Wal
ton was young, very young, for his ~
years. His eyes were childlike in their
limpid brilliance. There was suggestion
of infancy, too, in his curling silken
hair, clipped close to the head, and the
Pickering rose of his cheek. Out of the
pulpit he was but quiet, we'll bred

CHAPTER XIII.

The revival proved to q sort of spirit
ual cyclone. It's force was spent early
in the week. Though the ministers kept
on hopefully until next Sunday, they
got few converts after Wednesday night.
But the church had been refreshed-all
admitted that-though there was head
shaking over more than one name among
those Of the probationers, Teddy Bar
toms in particular. Such landmark sim
ners as had escaped the flood of grace
even said of his change of heart: 'Ef
he holds fast ter the promises. the day
Of merakles amt past Let him hear er
fiddle er see er foot shake, an you look
outl He's plum crazy over dancin, an
besides he's sech er liar it wouldn't be
strange eff he was tryin ter come it that
away chen over the Lord Almighty"
Mr.. Topmark only laughed when he
heard such speech. He had other and
much more important things upon his
mind. Though the letter to Lawyer
Howell had been so painstakingly com.
posed, it rested still in the depths of
his desk, awaiting, like himself, certain
turns of affairs. Rob he had seen only
casually and afar off since the great
Monday night. For some reason or none
he had kept away from her after it. Of
course nobody dreamed of connecting his
abstention with the conspicuous pres
ence in the nightly gatherings Of Mrs.
Annis and her niece from" the Eelenoy."
Mr.. Topmark was mighty civil to
them, lettering their horses and seeing
that they were properly mounted, but
no one thought more than that it was
due to keen commercial instincts. He
would do most anything by way of
drawing trade, said his world, never
dreaming that there was more in his
action than appeared upon the surface.
Monday, after the big meeting closed,
Mr.. Topmark had particularly bad
half hour. 1t began with him in Mrs.
Annis' big room, snug at Magnolia's
side, his arm about her waist and her
lap full of span new gauds and gewgaws
which had just come out of his pocket.
In return he claimed a kiss and got a
singing slap OH the cheek. Magnolia
got up and moved little away, saying
as she turned upon him slow, bovine
regard:
''Frum all hear um say, ! got ter
pay high fer all you gimme. I don't
wanter ter go an pay twiste."
Snow. I do wonder who could er

told you sech as thatl Why, I'm the lib.
eralest man alive; hadn't er been fer
that l might be well off, chen rich,"
Mr.. Topmark protested.
Magnolia still stared duly. 1t was
her aunt who broke into torrent of
angry accusation, whose burden was
Mr.. Topmark's double dealing. "You
wants that McGregor gal much as you
wants the land" she said. ~ believe
you re a-playin ter git her, with me an
my gal up your sleeve, an tellin us ter
be SO close mouthed when you strow
things round so chen the McGregor
niggers know
"What niqgers?" Mr.. Topmark de-
manded broathlessly.
Mrs. Annis gave a haunting laugh
and shifted rather than said, "Of oo'se
you'll lie outen tellin it an say ole Phe-
my found out through conjure work.
"Conjure work! Lord in heavenr'
Topmark calculated, springing stiffly
upright. "I'll--I'll learn that ole witch
not ter come a-meddlin with my con-
Germs. -

God In the fullness of his great strength,
in the face of all men. If only she might
reach himl But how could she novel
She sat down limp, half senseless, when
some one parted the throng about her,
some one slim and light of foot, who
took her hand in warm clasp and led
her, unresisting, up to the place OF
praise.
Somehow way was made for them,
and at last the throng parted to let the
sobbing woman come face to face with
her husband. The next minute she lay
against his breast, with his tears rain
ing over her face.
''Thank you, Miss Rob, an help me
thank God," he said to her convoy.
"Men an brethren, hear me tell it. Only
God knows what this here pore little
creeter has had ter bar an suffer fer
me. Eff ever mistreats her ag'in, may
the good God that has jest been shown
me his love fling me back furder an

Rob McGregor had firm nerves. She
turned from the pair with the first
choke in her throat she had known in
all that wonderful night.
