CHAPTER I.

Ell L.
The revival in Paradise Valley, con-
Quoted by the Reverand Silas Crafts,
of South Tredegar, was in the middle
of it's second week. and the field-to
use Brother Crafts own word-was
white to the harvest.
Little Zoar, the square, weather.
tinged wooden church at the head of
the valley. built upon land donated to
the denomination in times long past
by an impenitent but generous Major
Dabney, stood a little way back from
the pike in a grove of young pines.
BY half-past six of the June evening
the revivalist's congregation had begun
to assemble.
Those who came farthest were first
on the ground; and by the time L.
year-old Thomas Jefferson, spatting
barefooted up the dusty pike. had
reached the church house with the KEY,
there was goodly sprinkling of un-
hitched teams in the grove, the horses
champing their feed noisily in the wag-
on-boxes, and the people gathering In
little neighborhood knots to discuss
, gravely the one topic uppermost In all
minds-the present outpouring Of grace
on Paradise Valley and the region
roundabout.
Dye reckon the Elder'll make 1t this
time with his brother in -law?" asked a
tall, flat chested mountaineer from the
Pine Knob uplands.

well, now; maybe that's the rea-
son." drawled Japheth Pettigrass, the
only unmarried man in the small cir
Gle of listeners; but he was promptly
put down by the tall mountaineer.

Thomas Jefferson had opened the
church house doors and windows and
was out among the unhitched teams
looking for Scrap Pendry, who had
been one of a score to go forward for
prayers the night before. So 1t hap
pened that he overheard the fiat chest
