known, and seek rest and peace amid
the scenes of my childhood. also de.
termined, after my arrival, to begin a
thorough investigation of the robbery
on my own hook. The reason I had
not done this before will be stated later.
The solitude of Sidington, the lack
OF a welcoming hand, the knowledge
that l had outgrown all boyish esti-
mates and would therefore find the old
homestead no longer encompassed
about by the romantic interest which
youngsters mind was able to coniure
up-an this did not tend to raise my de-
pressed spirits, and my heart was heavy
within me as I plodded up the long,
dusty hill toward the home of Mr.. Hun
sicler.
"A delicious breeze was blowing at the
top of the hill, and I paused moment
under the shade of the naples, to bare
my perspiring brow to the cool in
huence.
Then I slowly walked up the shady
path leading to the porch, keeping my
hat In my hand. Ihoped Mr.. Hunsicker
would be at the house for dinner, for
I determined not to go out into the hot
fields to search for him.
Aknock at the open front door caused

grandson Of Abram Nelson is a thief

Her assurances comforted and en-
couraged me very much. For knew
my life had been honorable and square,
at least in all business relations. and
her absolute trust in me, after all the
cruel insinuations and the cold looks
OF suspicion. was balm to my wounded
spirit.
There was another, the brightest, fair
est and best of women, who also felt
confidence in my integrity, or at least
had done so; one whose affection /
had gained. But had not heard from
her since Immediately after the rob-
berry, and whether her trust and love
still remained unshaken I could not
say. had no reason to doubt her; but
then time works wonderful changes
in woman's opinions, often.
After supper Jake drove me over to
Nelsonville. Sarah accompanied us, of
course. She would have been intensely
| pleased to have me stay at her own
house, but was longing for the rest
and peace which the old homestead
seemed to promise, and so could not
be persuaded to change my plans.
At the corner of two roads, near the
house, dwelt an old widow, who had
taken care of my place.
The large farm had been rented out
in parcels to neighboring farmers, but
the house had remained vacant ever
since my grandfather's death.
We stopped at the widows home for
the key, and the old lady came along
with us.
Soon I stood upon the porch and
gazed around upon the scenes which
had stamped themselves so strongly
upon my boyhood's mind that even now,
after all these years, they seemed Won
derfully familiar. I missed the white
headed old gentleman, whose figure had
been the most beautiful of all to my
boyish mind. With sigh I turned to
the door, placed the key in the lock,
turned the bolt, and entered, followed
reverentially by Sarah and her husband,
and Mrs. Snyder, the old widow.

If have told you oil you wish to
know about myself" went on, Twill
you kindly tell me, as return favor,
where team can be procured to cart
me and my belongings over to my
placer"
The fellow grinned at me, as though
there had been something in my words
of an amusing nature; but finally he did
| give me the desired information:
'Why, I guess maybe Jake Hunsicker
kin take you over. He's just gettin' in
the oats, but if you pay him, p'raps he'll
leave the oats be long enough to drive
to Jacksonville and back. Anyway, he
kin take you after supper, if you wanter
| wait till then.''
"And where does Mr.. Hunsicker live p"
I asked
The agent pointed to clump of trees
on the summit of hill about quarter
of mile distant. ''You kin see just
part of the roof through the trees. The
road runs uphill right past the house."
"How about these things while I am
gone? Will they be safe?" inquired.
"Oh, yes; no one'll take 'em. It'll be
all right" he replied, indifferently, as
though he did not care whether my lug
gage would be secure or not. Then he
gave one more glance at me, grinned in
his dull way, sprang from the platform,
and went off down the road.
All the country for miles about Mel
sonville had been familiar to my boy
hood. But now, after an absence of 1s
years, could hardly recognize this part
Of it.
The railroad had been built some five
years before, and that made, in itself,
a great change. The station was in a
valley, and the fertile fields and dark
green forests on the bounding hills were
all very beautiful.
But, as there were few houses, and
those in the distance, there was
loneliness about the place which seemed
to find counterpart in my life For
I was social Ishmael, an outcast, bur-
dened with the suspicion of a crime of
which was innocent. The fact that
nothing could be proved against me, in
the minds of most people, only indi-
Gated that I was such an adept in
roguery as to be able to cover up all
proof of my guilt.
1t was now a year that the cloud had
rested over my good name. The first
six months of this time I had vainly at
tempted to live down the general sus-
picion. But I found the houses of even
those I had considered true friends
closed against me, and so, heart-sore
and almost despairing, I fed to Europe,
hoping to find partial forgetfulness, or
at least rest from cruel tongues. Un-
fortunately for my peace, Americans
read the newspapers, and I had only to
mention my name to my countrymen
whom I met during my trip abroad to
be asked if I was the one whose name
was mentioned in connection with the
great bank robbery in Philadelphia. I
soon tired of this and of being compelled
to tell over and over again the circum-
stances of that affair, so resolved to 90
back to my native land, avoid the city
where was so we'll and so unfavorably

Old Jake gave sudden start which
attracted my attention to him. I saw
him gaze through the open doorway in
to the parlor in very evident terror, and
heard him exclaim, in low, awed tones:
"Gott in Himmel!"
I could not restrain a smile at the
sight of the tall, strong man overcome
by childish fears, and was about to up

Discouraging as it must seem to the ad-

| Incredible. They live near the Durham

/ named Wilson. The remarkable tFing con-
nscted with them is an entire absence of
| fear OF snakes. even of the most venomous
description, and their immunity from any
/ evil effects from the bites of the deadli st
! reptiles
The father and son came to the mines
not many days ago. according to the state
ment of this gentleman, the son with
| large cOpperhead, one Of the dezdlfest OF
| Georgta's many deadly snakes, coiled il his
| cap on top of his head. The father had a
! large rattlesnake. aboutafive feet long, in
! his bosom next to his skin. They seemed
no more afraid of them than If they were
pet mice and after putting these strange
pets upon the ground this extraordinary
pair, in order to prove their lack of fear,
provoked the snakes until each was bitten
/ in the arm and legs a number of times.
No ill-effects whatever were manifested
and the man told the narrator that no
snake bite had the slightest effect on him.
He ard his son can take up the most
deadly snake, such as the copperhead. rat
tlesnake. and moccasin. without any
thought Of possible snake bites. other than
the slight pain naturally experienced
The man has no explanation to offer
saying that he has been that way since
he can remember. Physicians try to ex-
plain IT by saying that they have become
proof by continuous bites and incubation,
somewhat in the same way that inocula-
ton with smallpox virus or vaccination
protects against contracting smallpox.
But this can hardly be true if the man
is to be believed, since he states that he
has enjoyed immunity since his earliest
childhood, and the son, a small boy. is
also immune and has been all his life.
The case is one which might be profit
ably Investigated by physicians and sci
entific men. few such cases have been
told Of before but vaguely and indefinite
ly but this is vOuched for by such unde-
niably good and reliable authority that
there can be no possible doubt of its |
truth.
The informant Is positive that the pois- |
on fangs of the snakes exhibited had not |
been extracted and he is equally positive |
that there was no deception practiced AZ |
ter submitting to the bites the maa and |
the boy both showed their hands ana legs. |
and the small punctures with the blood |
exuding therefrom were seen by dozens of /
people.
Whatever the power possessed by this |
abnormal pair there Is no question as to
the poisonous character of the snakes nor
of the fact that they bite their keepers
and that the bites were absolutely funoe-
uous.
