tie puffs of wind ruffled its surface.
BY night the clouds had risen
like wall, stretching from the south
to the northeast, but still 1t was clear

Fitful blasts of wind came tearing
through the quaint old fishing town of

That night Marie prayed as though

Holy Mother, plead for me, even as
thou hadst Son." and then the hot
food of tears fell fast, binding and
scorching, and choking the full heart.
In the morning the eastern shore of
LIsle Madam was shrouded in seeth-

And still from the southeast the storm
drove, and all that night.
And in the morning of the second
day the crash of breaking timbers
mingled with the boom of the mighty
waves as they dashed against the

People were hurrying towards the
surf-beaten shore. Her long hair toss

hours, Holy Mother, save my Leon!"

man vas saying, slowly lowering his
glass as Marie came up to the group

eyes seaward. Her anchors are out"
he continued, "but she cannot live in
such gale under that strain, and II
she parts her cable she will go 10
pieces on the rocks"
His words were scarcely audible
above the shrieking of the wind; but
Marie heard, and there. among those
rough fishermen, she knelt and prayed,
