When the police came and we left the
place, Mr.. Dingley and father separat-
ed without a word, and father took
me home alone in the carriage.
All the experiences which l had gone
through with, with such apparent lack
of feeling, seemed to take their re-
venge on ME at once. For n while 1
was very i'll, deIirious with fever. and
when | was myself again and the doc
tor would let me be talked to, the new
trial was all over, and Johnny Mont
gomery had been acquitted Il week
ago 1t was Halle, all smiles, with
her hands full of roses, who brought
this news in to me and in a few days.
she said, Jack Tracy had told her
Montgomery was going to leave the
city. This set me wondering whether
that night in the carriage and every
thing we had told each other then had
been no more than part of my fever
visions.
At last | gathered courage enough
to ask father il Johnny Montgomery
had inquired about me. Father looked
annoyed and said, Yes" that he had
been sending every day. and that he
had asked Ii he might see me when I
was able, but, father said, he had
thought it best to refuse. That made
me so miserable 1 began to be ill
again, and the doctor was afraid |
would have a relapse. So finally father
gave his permission for me to see
Johnny.
1t was strange and unreal to think
that it was actually he, gaunt and
white and serious looking, standing be-
side my bed and gazing down Mt me
with timid eyes. l must have looked
very thin. for he took my hand as if he
thought it would break, and his voice
was hardly above a whisper. He said
whatever good came of him and what
ever happiness he had hereafter he
would owe to me, but father was right
in saying that a man with the reputa-
ton he held in this city had no right to
see or speak with me. He had only
come to thank me and to say goodby.
But father does not know you,"
said, land | am sure you are quite a
different man from what n one here
thinks you. And if you so away it will
break my heart"
At that he looked happier and said
if | felt that way he would go just the
same, but it would make him want to
come back again. And then, perhaps.
he might be more the sort of man my
father would give his daughter to. A
friend of his fathers. he said. had Of
fered him an overseer's place in his
mine in South America, and would |
forget all about him in two years, he
wanted to know.
Two years will seem a very long
time" | said. but | shall remember
you and wait for you forever"
He smiled and said, Those two years
will be almost forever to me, but l
have bought my chance dear, and even
the hope of such happiness is more
than | deserve"
And then l called father and told
him. He was very grave and said to
Johnny: 1T depends on you. If you
can show yourself a different sort of
man and wipe out the record you have
made for yourself. we'll, then. I ppo
she will be of g and it will be your
own affair. But | hope she will forget
you" That was absurd,
SO | kissed Johnny goodby. though
father didn't like that at all. for IL
would help to make the two years
shorter.

Peterboro, June 2.-The Sons of

doors by members of and sympa-

Morgan, editor of The Liberator

ism. The chair was occupied by

Johnston.
The chairman introduced Rev.
Mr.. Connors. The latter Said he
was heart and soul in sympathy with
the Inns and objects of the Fedora
ton. His name might suggest a
close connection with Rome, but he
was thankful to say there was a
wide gulf between them.
When Mr.: Morgan YVES introduced
he was given a hearty welcome. He
is a fluent and pleasant speaker. He
said in part: "Romanism is a men
ace. Romanism is not the Roman
Catholics, but the system. Within
the Roman Church are souls that are
earnest, but the system is wrong.
When Leo XIII. died, some of the
cardinals wanted Cardinal Rampolla
as the dead Pope's successor. He
then explained why RampolIa, for

Father" Vermeersch would evil

be employed for the purpose of sup
pressing Professionalism. His book is
but the latest indication of the I'M
controvertible fact that the Church
of Rome is willing, nay, ready, at the
present moment to put into force her
medieval barbaritie3 against Pro-
testants, if circumstances would only
permit her to do so, and if only she
could reinstate them without injur-
ing herself by SO doing. And it
should especially be remembered
that this latest eulogism of the use
of torture bears the imprimatur of
the Vicar-General of Cardinal
Bourne, and is published in London
during the present year. Despite
the fact that eminent ecclesiastics Of
the English branch of the Italian
Church are doing all they can at the

by their wrong names. He offers
$1,000 to any priest of the Roman
Church who will, in public, translate
passages from st. Alphonsus Liguori.
Romanism is a political organization
first and church last. If the church
could win any other way she would
not bother with religion. AS soon
as the money jingles in his priests
box, up jumps the soul from pur-

The speaker then showed up the
wrongs and unpatriotic principles of
the separate school system. Rome
does not want children to go to pub

face their own past history. Rome
is always against liberty Of thought
and free speech. Her separate
schools are simply means of teach
