A SONG oF WAITING

I would that I were far away,
 Where petals pink and white were
 showing,
 And I could hear, as dreamers may,
 'sThe horns of Elfland faintly blowing, And muse beside prattling brook
 That gossiped over messy stones And told me tales of gnome and crook And sang q song of divers tones. I would that I were roaming far
 Through happy fields of April bloom. And violet blue and daisy star
 Instead of facing winters gloom. Iris sweet to dream of silver rain
 And dream, of roses yet to be, When Spring shall win to smiles again The frost-bit land and sobblng seal

July, 1870, to May, 1876, she again resided in New

she lived the bank never knew.
'On the morning of May 16, 1876, she deposited a

drew out one hundred dollars of her savings. The
existing bank records show nothing to the check,
