AT JONATHAN TURNER'S.
Jonathan Turner and his wife were
hOeing in the garden. Jonathan,
Strengthening up TO rest his back "a

the path that followed the field fence.
He watched them for little while In
silence. then exclaimed:

asked.

you'll say the same She SAYS you
seen Loueesy meet that Melvin out in
my timber"
Sim paused and looked at Sam for a
reply, but the latter stood with his
eyes fixed on the ground and remained
silent. This was not a good sign, and
Sim realized it. Trembling from head
to foot, he drew little nearer to Sam
and in hoarse whisper said:
Tell me, Sam. is it SOP
Sam looked slowly up and after an
instants pause said heartily:
Curse Mary Manu-
Yes, but tell me-" Sim pleaded, ais it
SOP
Sam glanced uneasily around.
Sim" he said, II wish you wouldn't
ask me that"
Sims whole form dropped as though
a deadly blight had passed over him.
In heart wrung tones he cried:
MY God. Sam, you're KILN me!
Can't you tell me that it is not 500"
Sam slowly shook his head.
I'D give the world, Sim" he replied,
''if I could, but thar'd be no use in tell

Then all them words Mary Mann
spoke are true?"
Il don't know bout that. 1 don't

''She said you seen Loueesy meet that

Sims voice choked with emotion, and
he could say no more Sam came to
him and placed his hand on his shout

"Sim," he said kindly. "you Just be
patient. Louecsy is not to blame. for
people can't help their feelin's. You

Of now. Then she'll see her mistake.

In uttering these words Sam Morgan
proved himself more of prophet than
he knew, and Sim Banks would have
saved himself world Of suffering IL
he had needed them
You mean well. Sam" Sim said.
"bst know my duty. see it all plain

'NGoodby. Sim"
Il thank you. Sam. for your kind

tried to spare me an above all how
you've tried to shield Loueesy. l won't

He turned and walked away. Sam
stood still, looking after him. and pres
emily he called to him. Sim stopped and
turned his head YEARLY around Sam
said uneasily:
For GodSs sake, Sim, don't do moth
IN rash.'
I'll do my duty" Sim replied.
His duty-whet did that mean? Sam
Morgan thought of those words often
In the long. weary days that followed.

Jonathan's face fell. Sans words
were a cruel disappointment, disap-
pointment that can be fully appreciat-

fondest hope of his life suddenly bot
ted out. Sam saw the effect OF his re-

man said:

After little humming and having
