those other brave fellows whose rest
ing place is in our cemetery-the men
who were pitted against us in that aw-
full struggle-who fell as devoted mar
tyrs to a cause which they believed
to be right. Remember them, also,
with your flowers, your tears and your
prayers"
In secluded part Of the cemetery
that afternoon Richard Challoner
stood alone beside grave which was
marked by a granite headstone bear
ing the name of his father. So occu-
pied was he with his own gloomy
thoughts that he did not notice the
timid, hesitating approach of Dorothy
Brant until she was within few feet
of him. He Strengthened up then, and
greeted her with a solemn, courtly
bow, while his cheek flushed. The girl
was very pale, and her eyes were red
with weeping. She carried an armful
of roses, which she silently and rev.
crently deposited on the dead confed'
crates grave. Then, facing the man
opposite with a look of plying appeal,
she took from her bosom a letter and
handed it across to him.
Read this. Richard" she said, In
frightened, quivering voice. 1T was
written by your father to my mother
many years ago, before | was born.
1t has been preserved among NAM
mas other treasures, left at her death.
Aunt Mary found it last night, and l.
we wanted you to see it, and-please
don't refuse. Richard"
Written by my father TO your
mother?" he said, slowly, with deep
ly puzzled look.
Yes, yes. Oh, please read it. 1t

that she should turn to matrimony as
the most convenient and comfortable

Col. Brant had come down to Pop

to deliver the Memorial day address
at the public exercises to be given un-

Army post. He had formerly been a
resident of the town. That was be-

II Poplarville. She was not partial
to city life, especially as it sepa-
rated her from Aunt Mary, who was
a second mother to her, and from the
old homestead, to which she was great
ly attached.
1t was Dorothy who met Col. Brant
at the railway station when he ar
rived on the evening preceding the
30tl Of May, 1885, and it was Dorothy
who bIushingy confded to him, on
their way to the house, that very
handsome and a very worthy young
man had been paying court to her for
two months past.
He will call on you this evening

softly.

You have already given yours, sup

Why, papa-of course"
And so 1t came about that Richard

in Poplarville for the practice of his

In the course of the evening Col

the library on the second floor of the
house to indulge in quiet smoke and
a private interview. Here Challoner
preached the subject of his love for
Dorothy, and soon gained the consent

The best land bargains to-day are found in
the prosperous Southwest.
The Panhandle and South Plains region of
northwest Texas offers good lands at the low
est prices in the Southwest.
You can't buy land there as cheaply this

So the time to buy is now.

Likewise nothing better for the man with big

my last request, Richard"
He said no more, but took the let
ter from its time-worn envelope and
read
Mrs. Levison Brant-Dear Madam: It
pains me TO learn that your husbands
supposed responsibility for my condition
has almost prostrated you. Pray do not
worry on that score. l assure you from
my inmost soul that 1 not only forgive
your husband, but 1 have already begged
his forgiveness for forcing him to commit
an act which he so deeply deplores. The
fault was entirely my own. and 1 alone
am the one who should suffer. Believe
me, l am profoundly sorry for what hap
pened, and 1T is not sorrow that is in
fluenced by selfish considerations, or the
fear of death. Since l have been in this
hospital Col. Brant has become my most
valued and best-beloved friend What he
has done for me can never be told but
he has made me realize that there are
true gentlemen at the north as we'll as in
the south, and that he Is one of the
noblest men in the world. l thank you
dear madam, for giving me this oppor-
tunity to say that. so far from feeling
resentment, l entertain only sentiments
of warmest friendship and gratitude to-
ward your husband. Sincerely yours,
WILLIAM C1ALLONER
The color came and went in the
young mans face as he read and the
light in his eyes softened to a tender
glow. Finishing, he crumpled the let
ter convulsiVely in his hand, and
came round the headstone of the
grave at half-dozen quick strides.
Dorothy" he cried, seizing her
hand, this is glorious revelation to
me. Let us hunt up your father at
once. l will go down on my knees to
him If you like. With you for a wife
