after we left. And until he prom

thing of value he never thought of
getting them out of that secret
drawer. Then, too, he could not
move, Margot says, and when they

We decended the broad stairs. DR..
Williams met us at the foot in deep
black, with the clergyman of Miss
Elizabeth's old church, and we went
into the library and sat while the
service was read.

and then they insisted on my going
home with them. This did, and re-
NAMED all day. 1t seemed so like
old times. We talked of many
things, Miss Elizabeth, Miss Evelyn,
and I-about the Squire and his
queer ways; about my marriage
from the Hall, and, above all, of their
brother Eugene and his young wife
and little daughter. 1t was because
of the child that l had gone to the
Hall to live. l had had entire care
of Mr.. Eugene Darlington's little
girl. She was the sweetest little
thing. Hair like sunbeam; eyes
as large and blue as corn-fowers.
1t was only when Mrs. Eugene grew
soill, and pined to see her mother and
father, that Eugene consented to
take her away to the west where
they lived. Wisconsin was the state,
remembered. We talked of Mrs.
Eugene's death, of Eugene's wander
ing life after that, of his going out
to India, and of his death there.
"And the child, the child" whisper
ed Miss Elizabeth. Sometimes I
think she may be living; sometimes l
think she may have died. Sometimes
think we have trace of her; again
it is lost. Oh! to think of having the

through the war from beginning to end
At the close, as nothing whatever was

to settle his estate. When the settle

body who knew him, Mr. Kornegay APP
peared on the scene. After giving an in

administrator and began life anew. He
accumulated considerable property.

North Wilkesboro, n. c., Nov. 25.-Gen.
j. B. Gordons lecture, which was deliver
ed here Saturday evening was of more
than ordinary interest, as the hall in
which he spoke was within 200 yards of
the birth place of his father. In fact
North Wilkesboro is built on the old
Gordon farm and his great grandfather
and grandfather's remains lie in our
town.
He was introduced by Mr.. r. N. Hack
EFT, whose mothers maiden name was
Miss Caroline Gordon, and in the au-
dience was Mrs. Ann Finley, who was
before her marriage Miss Ann Gordon,
and there were something like a score
of other descendants of the Gordon who
settled in this county over 125 years ago.
The General was visibly affected by
this, his first visit to the home of his
fathers boyhood, and many will treasure
this occasion as a sweet memory. Gen
eral Gordon spent the night with Mrs.
Ann Finley and many an old memory was
recalled.

FRoEBEL HOMES FIRST WEEK
Twenty-Five Children Returned and
others Go Down Tomorrow.

Twenty-Five Children Returned and
Others Go Down Tomorrow.
The twenty-five children who went
to the Fresh Air Home, Tybee. Mon
day, returned to Savannah yesterday,
and tomorrow a second lot will be
taken to the home by two of the ladies
of FroebeI Circle of Kings Daughters,
under whose auspices the home is con-
Quoted. The home has but recently
been completely repaired. a new roof
put on, coats of paint put both on the
inside and the out, and in every way 1t
has been put in first-class condition.
Children who go to the home are
taken down by two members of the
circle, and two ladies likewise accom-
pany them back to the city when the
week is up. The children are usually
met at the depot by their mothers.
Those who accept the hospitality of the
home may remain there a week. two
weeks, or longer as may be considered
necessary by the doctor who sends
them to the home.
The home is entirely undenomina-
tional and any child is taken there who
is run down, sick, or needs a change.
With very young children such as
teething babies. mothers are allowed
to go. All that is necessary to get a
child to the home is for application to
be made to Miss Lily Hunter, No. 7l8
Drayton street, a doctors certificate
being taken along showing that the
child has no contagious disease.
The ladies interested in the work are
DESTROYS that all. persons, especially
doctors, will send to Miss Hunter such
children as they know are in need OF
a stay at the home. There is no trou-
bic in getting applications for a stay
at the island, but the members of the
circle are anxious that those that are
especially in need of a stay at the ISL
and shall be the first to get it.
A trained nurse is al the home and
sick child. even if it has to be car
ried on a cot, will be received into the
home. While most of the children that
are taken in the home go on Mondays,
If a doctor thinks any child needs to
go at once it will be sent immedi-
ately.
The home is very conveniently ar
ranged, the main building. besides din
ing room and sitting room, has two
large dormitories, with dressing rooms
attached. Here most of the children
sleep. In addition there are two two
room cottages, one of which is called
tne nOSpltal ana IN which the very
sick children stay, away from the
noise of the main building. and here.
also, the trained nurse lives. The sec
ond cottage is kept for mothers and
their little children
Last summer over $50 children en-
joyed the benefits of the home Visit
ors to the home, especially doctors, are
most welcome for the ladies of the
home want the public to become ac-
quainted with the work that is being
done. Owing to the expense Of the re-
cent repairs and the increased price of
comestibles, the expenses of the home
are considerable. and donations will be
thankfully received
