"Ah, that was but to hold you up on
your journey. But you are sick, even
now. Let me fix place for repose."
Simon spread blanket upon the boats

SO that Louise could lay her head upon
one of the thwarts. and when this was
fixed, she availed herself of the oppor-
tunity for rest thus afforded, for she
was in truth sick and faint, and her head
ached. It was not all the result of mere
fatigue or fright, but disease had abso-
luteIy fastened upon her--a slight cold,
perhaps, at first but now yerging to
fever.
Yet Louise slept, and when she awoke,
she found the sun shining down full up
on her, and the boat had reached the
southern shore. She was assisted to
land, but she could not walk. However,
horses were at hand, and when she was
seated In the saddle, the party started
across the land towards New Orleans,
which they reached before noon. The
place contained not more than hundred
dwellings, and those were humble and
primitive in form. The territory of the
town had been laid out into squares
sixty-six in number, of three hundred
feet each. These squares were eleven in
number upon the river, and six in depth
so that with all the obstacles OF the nat
ural state of the land, its geographical
position had marked 1t out In the mind
Of its founder as the nucleus Of mighty
city. His quick and comprehensive mind
understood the advantages of the position
in commercial point of view, for he saw
that here was the natural point between
ocean and inland navigation.
To a low, wooden house on Bourbon
street was Louise conducted, and at her
own request she was at once shown to a
bed, and a physician sent for. An Old
negro woman, named Loppa, came to
wait upon her, and in a little while the
physician came. He was an old man.
and well skilled in drugs. He examined
the patients pulse, her tongue, and ask
cd numerous questions, and then an.
nounced that with care she might be well
in very few days.
During the rest of that day and the
following night, Louise saw no more Of
Simon Lobois. Her head ached much,
but finally the old doctors potions quiet
ed the nervous action, and late in the
evening she sank into gentle slumber.
On tire following morning she felt much
better, so that the doctor smiled when
he came In three days from that time
she was fairly recovered from her dis
ease, though she was very weak, partly
from the severe shock she had received,
and partly from the effects of the medi-
cines she had taken. AT all events, the
physician deemed 1t not necessary to call
again, and only ordered now that his pa
tents diet should be strictly attended to.
AS Louise thus began to regain her
strength, she wondered when Simon Lo-
bois would take her home. She had ask
ed him once, but had gained no direct an
swer.

made by Yankee inventors and 1t may be that sooner or
