CHAPTER XIII.
HOW He WAS FOlLED.
impossible, Incredible!

Impossible! Incredible!
Like q wave suddenly lifted the
whole assemblage rose in surprise if
not in protest. But there was no out
burst. The very depth Of the feelings
evoked made all ebullition impossible
and as one sees the billow pause ere 1t
breaks and gradually subside, . so this
crowd yielded to the awe within them
and one by one sank back into their
seats till quiet was again restored and
only circle Of listening faces con
fronted the man who had just stirred
a whole roomful to its depths. Seeing
this and realizing his opportunity, Fred
erick at once entered iuto the eXplana
tionS for which each heart there pant
ed.
This will be overwhelming news to
him who has cared for me since In
fancy. You have heard him call me
son. With what words shall over
throw his confidence in the truth and
rectitude of his long buried wife and
make him know in his old age that he
has wasted years Of patience upon one
who was not Of his blood or lineage?
The wonder. the incredulity. you mani
fest are my best excuse for my long
delay In revealing the secret intrusted
to me 10y this dying woman"
An awed silence greeted these words.
Never was the interest Of a crowd
more intense or its passions held In
greater restraint. Yet Agnes tears
flowed freely. and Amabers SMILES

for her now. they were surcharged
with a tragic meaning strange to see
In one Of her callous nature.

THINGS TO FoRGET.-If you would in
crease your happiness and prolong your
life, forget your neighbor's faults.
Forget the slander you have heard.
Forget the temptations. Forget the
fault-fnding, and give a little thought
to the cause which provoked it. For
get the peculiarities of your friends.
and only remember the good points
which make you fond Of them. For
get all personal quarrels or histories
you may have heard by accident, and
which, if repeated, would seem thou
sand times worse than they are. Blot
out, as far as possible, all the disa-
greeable of life; they will come; but
they will grow larger when you remem-
Der them, and the constant thought Of
the acts of meanness, or, worse still,
malice, will only tend to make you
more familiar with them. Obliterate
everything disagreeable from yester-
day; start out with a clean sheet for
today, and write upon it, for sweet
memory's sake, only things which are
lovely and lovable.-The Trumpeter.

think it more than probable that
this body was entirely composed Of
York men, with the addition Of the
friendly York Indians, all under the
command Of Major Ross. The account
have given, had from the lips Of two
of the actors. First, in my boyhood,
from Mr.. William Erwin, whose timely
assistance saved Major Frank Ross's
life, in his struggle with the Indian;
and years after Mr.. Ervin's death,
meeting Mr.. John Kidd, who was also
in the Keowee expedition, he gave me
the same account, incident for incident.
They both belonged to the York battal-

but was too terrified to move or speak,
and this satisfied my mother and made
her last breath one Of trust and con-

this. was seized with horror Of the

He paused. and the awe oceasioned
by the scene he had described was so
deep and the silence so prolonged that
a shudder passed over the whole as
semblage when from some unknown
quarter a single. cutting voice arose in
this one short. mocking comment:
"Oh. the fairy tale!'
Was 1t Amabel who had spoken?
Some yet thought so and looked her
way. but they only beheld a sweet,
tear stained face turned with an air Of
moving appeal upon Frederick as If
begging pardon for the wicked doubts
which had driven him to this defense.
Frederick met that look with one so
severe it partook Of harshness. Then.
resuming his testimony, he said:

James by name. came to be involved In
this affair.

BRADLEY ROBINSON DEAD.

Bradley Robinson, formerly of Leon
county, who moved to DeLand about
hfteen years ago, died suddenly of heart
failure at his home in Yamassee last
saturday about $3.50 a. m. About s
O'Clock Friday night he seemed as we'll
as ever when We parted in front Of my
gate. Robinson was quiet and de-
sIraDle citizen, having secured a splen-
did home in Yamassee for his family,
and though not rettered, he took very
lively interest in public education. He
served one term as school trustee, TAX
ing the lead in this WORK.
h In the 70's he was deputy sheriff of
Leon county, and during the civil war
did faithful service on the Union side,
coming out with scars of honor with
which he slept away.
Though about go years old, he ap-
peared much younger, and was always
originating something for the better
ment of the race.
He leaves a family of four-a wife
and three daughters-tO whom we ex-
tend our sympathy.-VOlusia County

A special from Manatee, Fla, says:
The past two weeks of unusual warm

creased, split and dropped off, but, not
