the little boy rose to his feet.

Billy looked up at his aunt's aus

mouth to say something, but hest
tated; slowly he united the string
around his neck and laid his treasure
on her lap; then without looking up,
he ran into his own little room. clos
ing the door behind him.
Soon afterward Miss Minerva, hear
ing a sound like stifled sob coming
from the adjoining room, opened the
door softly and looked into sad, lit
tie face with big, wide. open eyes
shining with tears.
What is the matter, William" she
coldly asked.

sobbed. Wilkes Booth Lincoln al

His aunt sat down on the bed by

ways of childhood, and could not know
that the little boy wanted to pillow
his head on Aunt Cindy's soft and am
pie bosom, that he was homesick for
his black friends, the only companions
he had ever known.

temporized. You must not be baby.

night of Billy's arrival the stern, mar

of that pretty young sister, dead since
the boys birth. s
And now the wild, reckless, dissi-

and the child had been sent to her;
to the aunt who did not want him,
who did not care for children, who
had never forgiven her sister her un-

herself, "just as If he were little

Miss Minerva was strictly method
ical; she worked ever by the clock,
so many hours for this, SO many for
that. William, she now resolved, for
i
the first time becoming really inter-
ested in him, should grow UP to be a
model young man, a splendid and
wonderful piece of mechanism, a fine,
practical, machine-like individual
moral, upright, religious. She was
glad that he was young; she would
begin his training on the morrow. She
would teach him to sew, to sweep, to
churp, to cook, and when he was old
