A curious PRIDE newborn ana self
conscious, was dawning in him. He
was descended from ancestors who
had been no weaklings. A Valiant had
settled on those acres under a royal
governor, before the old frontier
fighting was over and the Indians
had sullenly retired to the westward.
The sons of those who had braved
sea and sayages had bowed their
strong bodies and their stronger hearts
to raze the forests and turn the
primeval jungles into golden planta-
tions.
There stole into his mood an eery
suggestion Of intention Why should
the date assigned for that deeds de-

was a foreordination as pointed as the

known that But he had known Moth

wagging. brought the sodden thing in
his mouth and put 1t into the out
stretched hand.
His master unrolled the pulpy wad
and extricated the object 1t had en-
closed-an old-fashioned iron door-key.
After a time Valiant thrust the key
into his pocket, and rising, went to a
trunk that lay against the wall.
Searching In a portfolio, he took out
a small old-fashioned photograph,
much battered and soiled II had been
cut from a larger group and the name
of the photographer had been erased
from the back He set it upright on
the desk, and bending forward, looked
long at the face 1t disclosed 1t was
the only picture he had ever possessed
of his father
He turned and looked into the glass
above the dresser. The features were
the same. eyes, brow, lips, and strong
waving hair But for its time-stains
the photograph might have been one
of himself, taken yesterday.
