thought Constance, if only she could

she had thought of it awhile, and she
was indignant with herself that she

down by such heavy burdens.
Primus Edes did not come to hel

Mr.. Carter choked at the thought

Not many rods away now came the
tramp OF forty men and boys who held
their torches high above their heads

woods and entered it. Mrs. Hamilton,
with wildly beating heart, was at the

her by leaving her side and walking
off with Primus Edes. When repri-
manded by his mother he only said:

Incontestible proofs to Perley, but
not to his mother, though she could

the time was coming when she was
to feel inexpressibly grateful to him.
One day Perley did not return as

his mother was not alarmed as she

Hamilton experienced a sudden thrill

She went to the mill at once and to
her uncle's office, but he had not seen
Perley.

1t was the first time she had ever

was not little alarmed about Perley.
