and l worshipped him as a man has been

Of the people I met daily in my prison life,
some were kind to me, some cruel. | hated them

minded of things and people l wanted to

met with some petty insult or aggravation from
one of the warderesses my fellows.
But one man who was kind to me | hated more
than any, good or bad. 1t was the chaplain of
the prison. When / think of that mans pa
tlence and goodness to me, and remember how
insulted and reviled him, how l hated and
thwarted him in every way, l know that there

He came to the prison eight years after en-
tered it, and for seven long and weary years
he never gave up the hope that some day 1
should show what he called my "true nature, "
and repent. He was an old man, with white
hair and nervous twitching of the lips, which |
used to initiate to his face in my desperate moods.
One day / heard that 1 was about to be re.
leased. My conduct had not been good, but kind
friends who had never forgotten me, had work
ed for me in the dark, and the order came.
From that moment there was but one thought
in my mind--Esie! Waking and sleeping she
filed my brain, and my sole idea was how soon
should see her. Not that meant to break the
long, long silence imperil the secret that had
been kept so faithfully and well. I would sooner
have died than that far, far sooner. But to sec
her, to get one glimpse of her, ah, if could
do that!
The chaplain came to and asked me if
there was anything he could do for me. He
dreaded the effect the news might have on my ILL
balanced nature; but he found me different
woman from the one he had known. Get me
