Follett awoke TO find himself super
fluous. The women were rushing eX-

order to be at hand when the process.
sion OF Brigham and his suite should
march in. OF Joel Rae he caught but
glimpse through the door of his
little room. the face flushed that had
a long time been sallow and blood
less. When the door had closed he
could hear the voice now strong again.
He seemed TO be, as during the night,
rehearsIng something he meant 10
say And later II was plain that he
prayed, though he heard nothing more
than the high pleading Of the voice.
Follett would not have minded these
things. but Prudence was gone. and
no one could tell him where. From

he blasted the items that she was
wearing "a dress all new" and "a red.
ribboned hat" Lorena. too. with all

Down the main road he hesitated.

Prudence doubtless was. He would

When he was gone the matter Of his
visit was not referred to. With some
constraint they talked a little while
Of other things. But as soon as the
two men were alone for the night,
Follett turned to him, almost fiercely.
Say. now. what did that old goat.

about Prudence?'
The little man was troubled
We'll. the fact is. Brigham has

He was burning again with his
fever. and there was something in
his eagerness that seemed to over.
come Follett's indignation.
Well. let II go TIL tomorrow, then.
And you try 10 get some rest now.
That's what I'm going to do"
But the little bent man, flushed
though he was. felt cold from the
night air. and. piling more logs on
the fire. he drew his chair close in
front OF It.
AS often as Follett Weakened through
the night he saw him sitting there,
sometimes reading what looked like
little old Bible. sometimes speaking
aloud as IL seeking TO memorize a
| passage.
The last Follett remembered TO
have heard was something he seemed
TO be reading from the little book
The Lord is my Shepherd; shall not
want. He maketh me to lie down in
green pastures; He leadeth me be
side the still waters"
He fell asleep again with a feeling
of pity for the little man.
