that instances of the same kind are of

the deceased caused the workman to be
arrested and taken before the cadi.
with whom he used all his influence to
have the poor man c~ondemned: and
though the innocence of the lahorer
was clearly established, nothing could
pacify the son but the law of retail

then gravely decreed that the workman
should be placed exactly upon the spot
where the old nan had stood.

go on the roof of the house. fall down
upon this man, and kill him if YOU
can"
OF course the son declined to do any,

1t was not as though Allan Craig had

She opened the letter, cutting the
envelope with her nail-scissors. For
some distinction must be made etwee

held his breath to feel what s%utfocatlon

round her room.

the steps to the entrance.

polite question, "all is going we'll. We
have a little daughter-Eva-my wife's

He stood by the hansom as she en-
