and started, sans clothes, for the barn, where

trying to lift her over the hog-yafd fence. A
weil-directed bullet from his old fintlock
instantly Knocked all the expectations Of
bruins picnic dinner out OF him. After a few
ground tumblings and commissions. he
dropped dows and fell into that sleep that
knows no waking.
As the report Of the gun died away the
pandemonium passed away with il.
Grandma, wishing 10 know the whole tragedy,
got ont Of bel and slipped on her shoes and
in her long, white night-dress, started down
towards the barn, where che met grandfather
coming up. He mistook her fer a ghost and
was nearly paralyEed with fear. In weak
and trembling voice he asked: who, from the
