The story did not lose in his telling,
particularly when he came to describe
the fight on the gravel bar which no
man had seen and Of which Poleon
had told him little, but the good priest
was Of q militant turn. and his blue
eyes glittered and flashed like an old
crusaders.
"It was wondrous combat" he de.
clared, with all the spirit Of specta-
tor. "for Poleon advanced barehanded
and beat him down even as the man

The Frenchman moved uneasily.

mum replied, "but he will surely reach
some place Of refuge where we can
pick him up. for the days are still mild
and the woods full Of berries"
"I'll be on the lookout for him." said
the lieutenant grimly.
When the voluble old priest had at
last exhausted his narrative he re.
quested Of Burrell the privilege Of a
few words and drew him apart from
the others. His face was warm with
understanding.
II had long conversation with my
little girl, for she is like daughter to
me. and discovered the depth Of her
love for you. Do you love her as much
as you should?'
"As much as can. They don't make
words OK numbers big enough to tell
you how dear she is to me-"
AThen why delay7 Tomorrow I leave

"But Stark?" the young man cried.

VETERANS TRIBUTE TO LEE.
Most Impressive Scene Of the Civil
War Was That After Surrender
Of Appomattox.

Men who saw the defeated general
when he came forth from the chamber
where he had signed the articles of
capitulation say that he paused a
moment as his eyes rested once more
on the Virginia hills; smote his hands
together as though in some excess of
inward agony, then mounted his gray
horse, Traveller. and rode calmly
away.
II that was the very Gethsemane Of
his trials, yet he must have had
then one moment of supreme, II
chastened, Joy. AS he rode quietly
down the lane leading from the
scene of capitulation, he passed
into view of his men-of such as
remained of them. The news of
the surrender had got abroad and they
were waiting, grief-stricken and de-
jected, upon the hillsides. when they
caught sight of their commander on
the gray horse Then ensued one of
the most notable scenes Of the history
of the war. In an instant they were
about him. bareheadad, with tear-wet
eyes; thronging him, kissing his hand
his boots. his saddle; weeping; cheer
ing him amid their tears: shouting his
name to the very skies. He said:
Men, we have fought through the war
together; have done my best for you;
my heart Is too full to say more."-
From Robert e. Lee, the Southerner,"
by Thomas Nelson Page. published by
Scribner's.

bank, so the impatient men at the post
relaxed interest in her as she came
creeping up abreast of the town. It
was little Johnny Gale who first saw
Necia and Poleon on board, for he had
recognized Father Barnum's craft at a
distance and stationed himself at the
bank hand in hand with Molly to bid
the good, kind old man welcome.
The men inside the house did not
hear the boy crying Necia's name, for
his voice was small, and they had gone
to the rear of the store. y
Understand? You leave Runnion

shall lay hands on him except me-"
His voice tra!lcd away. He rose Slow
~ to bis feet, a strange light on his
face. The others turned to see what
sight had drawn his eyes. In the
opening, all splendid with the golden
sunlight; stood NecIa anu ro:e1n Doret
who had her BY the hand. and she
was smiling.
Gale uttered great cry and went
to meet them, but the soldier could
move nothing save his lips and stood
dazed and disbelieying. He saw them
dimly coming toward him and heard
Poleon's voice az II at great distance:
saw that the Frenchman's eyes were
upon him and that his words were di.

Doret laid Necia's hand In that Of
her lover, and BurFell saw her smil-
ing shyly up at him. Something grip
ped him chokingly, and he could utter
no sound. There was nothing to say.
She was here. safe, smiling; that was
al. And the girl heholdins the glory
in bis eyes, understood.
Gale caught her away from him then
and buried her In his arms.
A woman came running into the
store and. seeing the group, paused at
the door-a shapeless, silent, shawled
figure in silhouette against the day.
The trader brought the girl to her fos-
