he was leaving Little River, to dive
him a sender and to say to him that
every latchstring In Little River was
always out for Joel Tykesbury.
That was the beginning Of the hap

Before 1t ended he had forever drop
ped his cloak of reserve, and he found
that his fellow townsmen met him
more than half way. A strange new
Joy sang In his heart, for the widowed
Charlotte had blushed beautifully
when their eyes met and he had ask
ed the pleasure Of her company home
and been accepted. All at once his

He would remain in Little River. he
would build the house, and Charlotte
he would win her! He was glad that
his Inheritance was still a secret.

As evidence Of the good manassmene,
Of the retiring. secretary and Of thu:
general prosperity that the society has
enjoyed in the past few years, It should
be mentioned that the officers were Ia.
structed to pay the interest on the loan
Of 5000 and to reduce the principle Of
$4,000.
It has been thought that additional
space was necessary for the grounds,
and committee was appointed to con.
slider the advisability Of leasing some
Ave or six acres Of land to the south
Of the present tract.
A regrettable feature in connection.
with the meeting was that Mr.. 8. A..
Clock declined to be again chosen 40
secretary. So able has been his I'd.
ministration of affairs Of the society.
that the members were 10th to dis
pense with his services. but he insist.
ed upon being excused. and the meet
ing was obliged to elect successor. IN
the choice OF Mr.. Williams the society.
is fortunate, for he is hustler and .
booster, and will do all in his power
