AN OLD MAIDS LOVE AFFAIR.

A child crying down in the swamp
what could it mean? Miss Abigail
Drew stopped and set down the heavy
basket of lunch she was carrying to
the men in the bayfield,. 1t surely
was a child's cry and baby's, too I!
How it stirred the chords Of her lone
ly, longing heart Miss Abigail loved
children with passionate, yearning
love, and yet it had been years since
she had even heard baby cry. Liv-
ing alone with her brother and his oc-
casional help on that remote farm, all
social relationships, all neighborly
amenities and delights were almost
entirely denied her. And above all
things she missed and longed for the
sunny presence of children. She felt
that if she only had child to care for,
her barren, empty life would overflow
with JOY and purpose. The days, now
so sad and meaningless, would be so
rich and blessed them All there is
nothing like the infinite aching Of the
mother-heart it a childless breast.
Therefore, that child-cry, floating
up from the swamp, was heavenly
music to the heart of Miss Abigail
Drew. She clasped her hands and
listened, her whole being absorbed in
the associations connected with the
sound. Suddenly her heart surged
into her throat, and she caught her
breath with the thought that rushed
across her mind-what if a baby had
been left in the swamp deserted!
And what if she could be the one to
find it and take it home, and, oh,
what if nobody should ever come TO
claim it The wistful face of the wom-
an paled and flushed and flushed and
paled in swift succession as her heart
brooded upon this wonderful possibili-
ty. At length, with little cry that
was all prayer, she sprang toward
the swamp, leaving the basket OF
lunch under the blaze Of the July sun.
When she emerged from the thick,
low woods at the bottom of the pas
ture, her dress was torn and her face
scratched and streaming with perspi-
ration, but the rapture and triumph
that shone in her eyes, as she looked
down upon a bundle strained to her
breast, showed that life for her had
suddenly been lifted above all ordi-
nary conditions and considerations
and that she was only conscious Of
walking upon such rOseate air as the
old painters limned beneath the feet
Of their exalted Madonnas. A little
face peeped out from the ragged
shawl that wrapped Miss Abigail's
precious burden, but the plaintive cry
had ceased, and the blue eyes of the
little foundling were gazing up into
those two springs Of limpid love"
that shone above them.
Nathan Drew and his two hired
men were waiting impatiently under
the shadow of a big elm tree when
their breathless provider finally ar
rived with the basket of lunch and
that strange bundle upon her left arm.
It was long past noon, and Nathan

Rev. DR.. J. p. Hyde, Of Winches-
ter, has just completed a burial ritual
for use at the funerals Of deceased
Confederate veterans in cases where
no officiating minister is available.
At the last meeting Of the Grand
Camp, Confederate Veterans, DR..
Hyde was appointed a committee to
formulate a ritual, and be will pre-
sent it at the coming session Of the
Grand Camp for adoption. The nit
ual consists Of Scripture lesson fol.
lowed by hymn and then prayer,
after which is the reading Of the ff-
teenth chapter Of First Corinthians.
Another hymn is then sung and then
follows taps. In the absence Of g
bugler TO sound the soldiers farewell,
the ritual provides that one Of the de-
ceased's comrades may make few
remarks.

SHEPHERDSTOWN W. VA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 81. 1901.
The March Of Company A.

Forward, march," was the captains word.
And the tramp'of hundred men was heard.
As they formed into line in the morning gray.
Shoulder to shoulder went Company a.
Out of the shadow into the sun,
A hundred men that moved one:
Out of the dawning into the day.
A glittering file, went Company \.
Marching along to the rendezvous,
By grassy meadows the road ran through.
By springing cornfelds and orchards gay.
Forward, forward, went Company A.
And the pink and white of the apple trees,
Falling fast on the ftful breeze.
Scattered its dewy. scented spray
Straight in the faces of Company A.
A breath ike sigh ran through the ranks
Treading those odorous descendants,
For the orchard hillsides far away,
The northern hillsides of Company 4
Forward, arch!-and the dream was sped:
Out of the pine wood straight ahead
Clattered 4 troop of the Southern gray
Face to face with Company \.
Forth with flash in the Southern sun
A hundred sabres leaped like one.
Sudden drum-beat and bugle play
Sounded the charge for Company A.
Haiti What is here? ? A sLuMBEREG CHILD,
Reused by the blast of the bugle Wild
Between the ranks of the blue and gray,
Right in the path Of Company A.
Nothing knowing of North or South.
Her dimpled finger within her mouth,
Her gathered apron with blossoms gay,
She stared at the guns Of Company A.
Straightway set for a sign Of truce
Whitley handkerchief Guuered loose,
As front Of the steel Of the Southern gray
Galloped the captain Of Company A.
To his saddle bow he swung the child,
With kiss on the baby lips that smiled,
While the boys in blue and the. boys in gray
Checred for the captain Of Company a.
Forth from the ranks Of his halted men,
While the wild hurrahs rang out again,
The Southern leader spurred his way
To meet the captain of Company A.
Out Of the arms that held her safe
He took with a smile the little wait,
A grip of the hand 'nyixt blue and gray,
And back rode the captain of Company \.
Up there, in the distant cottage door,
A mother clasping her child once more.
Shuddcred at sight Of the smokecloud gra
Shroudng the path of Company A.
\ little later and all was done
The battle was over. the victory won.
Nothing left of the pitiless fray
That swept the ranks Of Company A.
Nothing left-save the bloody stain
Darkcning the orchards rosy rain.
Dead the chief Of the Southern gray,
And dead the captain of Company \.
Fallen together the gray and blue,
Gone to the final rendezvous.
grave to cover. prayer to say.
And-forward, march went Company A.
