tone, the same accent used by
the operate singer, and it was
the very same song without
break or blemish, faltering or

the song she again relapsed into
silence, and no coaxing could get
a recognition from her.
After they had returned home
the girl one day wandered out
into the woods near by where
the cattle were grazing. She
was not missed for some time.

alarmed and began a search for
her. Only a few days before the
old gentleman had put some
bells on his cattle and turned
them outside. When a quarter
of a mile from the house he
heard faint music. Listening
intently he thought it to be some
one singing. He turned his
steps in that direction and when
he came nearer heard that song
as he had heard it at the asylum,
and as 1 had heard it at the
opera house in Little Rock, and
again near the turn of the road
