Certainly. Aunt Pat" replied Hell
en-, readily. Il didn't mean to give
Mr.. Donovan the impression that my
correspondence was enormous: but it
is odd to be shut up in this way and
not to be able to do as one likes in
such little matters"
1t was time for me to leave and l
picked up my hat and stick. AS l
started away was aware that Helen
Holbrook detained me without in the
least appearing to do SO, following a
few steps to gain, as she said, GER
tain view of the lake that was par
ticularly charming.
There Is nothing rugged in this
landscape. but 1t is delightful in its
very tranquility" she said as we
loitered on, the shimmering lake be-
fore us, the wood behind ablaze with
the splendor of the sun. She spoke of
the beauty of the beeches, which are
OF noble girth in this region, and
paused to indicate group of them
whose smooth trunks were like mas
sive pillars. AS we looked back saw
that Miss Pat had gone into the house,
driven. no doubt, by the persistency of
the west wind that crisped the lake.
Helen's manner changed abruptly, and
she said
III any difficulty should arise here
II my poor father should find out
where we are, trust that you may be
able to save my aunt anxiety and
pain. That is what l wished to say
! to you, Mr.. Donovan"
Certainly" l replied, meeting her
eyes. and noting a CULVER of the lips
that was eloquent of deep feeling and
loyalty. She continued silent as we
marched on and / felt that there was
the least defiance in her air: then she
drew a handkerchief from her sleeve,
touched 1t lightly to her eyes, and
smiled.
Il had not thought of quite follow
ing you home! Here Is Glenarm gate
and there lie your battlements and
towers"
Rather they belong to my old
friend, John Glenarm. In his goodness
OF heart he gave me the use of the

In moment she spoke again, quite
slowly, and with, I thought, a very
pretty embarrassment.
Aunt Pat may have spoken Of an
other difhculty-a mere annoyance

He lay quite still on the pier, gazing
out upon the lake, and l knew that
something unusual had attracted his
attention. He spoke to me In a mo-

"A man has been rowing up and
down the shore for an hour. When
he came in close here l asked him
what he wanted and he rowed away
without answering. He is now on
there by the school,"
Probably summer boarder from
across the lake."
Hardly, sir. He came from the d.
rection of the village and acts
Queerly."

crawled out to where lima lay. We

Next day there came Mr.. Griggs,
the village grocer. He was redfaced,
red-haired and fat and he was
widower. He was man of business.
With that five thousand dollars he
could enlarge his grocery and buy for
cash. The widow Collville looked
good to him as she opened the front
door In response to his knock. He
had left the grocery in charge OF a
clerk and must hasten back. He there
fore led off almost at once with:
widow Collville? am wild

"Yes?"

"You are widow, and you either
want to get married again or don't

AS for me, ! want a wife. l am
here to ask you to marry me. You
know who am. You know what my
grocery is. You can realize the hap
piness Of being able to send to the
grocery for anything wanted in the

Il undersell all other grocers in the
county. I've got Goldfish down cent

Then our little deal is off, and !
bid you good-day. Remember the

| The next caller was a wire fence
man, who had a job of fencing for
farmer two miles outside the village
He heard the widow Collville and her
$4,000 talked about, and it occurred
10 him that Providence was at last
backing him for good thing. He
attended church of a Sunday to get a
good look at her No fault could be
found with her looks. In the after.
noon he called to see her. She OWNED
his errand, and when he began to
preface his remarks with words OF
praise for the way she joined in the
morning hymn of The Sweet Bye and
Bye she interrupted him with:
You probably have matrimony in
view?"

But are you hero?"
II hardly know what you mean"

But the wire fence man had faded
away. He wasn't the last by five or
six. A fair-looking widow with S..

municipal court could be nominated and
C onfirmed. Had he failed to get this
office it is generally understood that he
would have been continued as tax collec-
tor. At the July meeting of the city
government tax collector was elected
who up to this time has been unable to
to secure bond, and at the meeting last
Monday night he was authorized to col
lect the taxes without bond, and the
discount of per cent is only allowed up
to and including August 18th. There are
grave doubts as to the validity of tax
receipts given under such circumstances,
and many will defer paying their taxes
until there is legally qualified collector.
Then as to the disposition of the city mon
ey. AT the July meeting the city treasurer
was instructed to take the moneyfrom the
City National and deposit it with the
Waldo Trust Co.. but at the meeting last
Monday evening he was directed to div
.ide it between the two banks. There is
good legal authority for saying that this
action of the city government invalidates
the treasurer's bond and that in the event
of a loss the surety company could not
be held In this case, as in the matters
proceeding, illegal or of doubtful legal
ity, the mayor has sought to further his
personal and political ends at the eX-

OBITUARY.

In an apprecative obituary of Williston
Grinner, Rev. L. D. Evans of the Congrega-
tional church. Camden, says;
Mr.. Gr;nnell will be long and affectionatey
remembered by the people of Camden and
other towns. His circle of friends was large,
not only all over this State, but over other
States in New England. He began life as a
poor boy and gradually acquired fine proper
ty which proved him man of ability and
worth. He man of honor and integrity;
his word was as good as his bond He always
meant what he said and said what he meant.
He hated hypocrisy in all its forms, and prac-
ticed the square deal With a mind of his
own, he stood up for what he believed to be
true. He was marked for his kindness and
tenderness of heart, and his hand was always
ready to help any good cause any worthy
poor; many have reason to remember him
gratefully for his kindness to them. His
friendships were strong and deep; he was fond
of his friends and they of him. His home
was particularly dear to him and he was never
happy away from it. He was good husband
and kind father. During his illness his
wife's devotion was unremitting, and the pres
ence of his daughter frightened the last
weeks of his life.
The funeral service of Miss Essie Morrill,
was conducted at the home of her mother,
Mrs. Charles F. Monk on Grove street, Pitts
field, last Thursday afternoon at 230 o'clock
and was largely attended by relatives and
friends Rev. N. R. Pearson, pastor of the
Methodist church, oficiated and offered COM
forting words to the bereaved family. Vocal
duets were rendered in most feeling manner
by R. A. Conant and daughter. Miss Vera

signs and tributes attested the esteem in
which the deceased was held by her acquaint
ances. The bearers were Elwood Titcomb,
