the offense with which he is charged

Carolyn's hope was verified. The
family was large and every one Of
them proceeded Immediately to make
her feel at home. Each one in his own
particular way did what he could to
make her stay pleasant, particularly
Tom. on whom the girl had made a
deep impression. Her face was always
between him and the corn rows, in
the clouds when he looked up, and
In his dreams when he slept.
Carolyn wrote mornings and slept

family was entertaining, and, having
keen wit and sense Of humor and
seeing the funny side Of all their ways,
Carolyn sent many humorous quip

One Sunday, as she lay almost
alseep in the hammock, Tom picked
up paper from the ground beside her

Suddenly he flung it down. "That
rot is unkind and untrue!" he cried.
Carolyn was wide awake now and
sat up. What 1t is she asked.
