But a happy thought came to one Of the
little girls. There was. on the main road
Of this village by the sea. a square gran

in memory of young soldier who had left
the war with wounded lungs. and had
come home to die. When he could go no
farther in the jolting stage coach, he beg
ged to be left to lie by the fresh, green
roadside, under beautiful tree, and here
he died in his brothers arms.
The telling of his simple story had al
ways filled the children with awe. They
never passed the place without reading on
The plain headstone his name and the date
" his sad death. They could not do much
but here was a little thing they could do
for one brave soldier. whom they had
never seen but whose name they loved.
So the next day, which was Memorial
Day, the neighbors looked out on queer
little procession. headed by Thomas Judd
Jr., beating Justify on his drum, and end
ed by little lame Lamkin with his
crutches. And because he had no hand

usually talked at the top of his voice.
But Tommy's audience didn't mind his

very much interested in what he had to
say. so they were al listening intentiy.
Little Willie Lankin. who was lame,
sat quietly on an old tree stump, his
crutches by his side and looked wiStiuiiy
