wagon.
One Sunday afternoon he started
out for a drive over the county
roads, and an hour later he return

badly, his clothes were torn and as
white from dust as a miller's. His

we rushed up to him, and we were
in great fear, believing he had been
seriously injured.

mind that the kidneys are affected,
notice the urine for a few days. If

CHAPTER X.
The master was a man of fairly
even temper. l think that in some
surroundings, where there was no
more irritation to be inflicted than
man suffers in ordinary city life,
he would have been a genial man.
Things had been running along so
smoothly that l expected an out
burst hourly, and it came. Such a
paroxysm of anger he never had
had before when l was with him.
And he was justified in being
angry.
He was kind to all animals, but
he loved horses, and he kept half
a dozen, all of them we'll bred,
though spawned. He delighted IN
riding horseback. He often rode
bare back at a gallop over the

But Carr came not, and in the
morning we found the master sleep
ing peacefully in a hammock. But
there was no peace after he awak-
ened.
