Oao 1t the farm and soon there was
q heavy mortgage In sight
A chance seemed to offer itself in
the way Of a job prot1ered to oeartd

that oelrtd made the long journey
from his home to the nearest rail-
road station, and started on his shll
longer journey to his cousins homs
in Ohio.
A. near 40 oslrid could remember.
that cousin lived in a place called
Rich Hill. somewhere in Ohio; but

last cent on street car fare, and was
wandering aimlessly about the streets.

hnd-hearted citizens attention was
attracted to his forlorn appearance.
The man brought the boy to the sta-
