old bachelor, who, with the excep-

In great weather-beaten old man.
sion on the river road. He lived
q very secluded kind of life, was
seldom seen upon the streets of the
town, and attracted very little atten-
ton when he was seen. There were
hardly ten people in the place that
knew the man or anything concerning
his life.
Yet there had been time in the
ife of Perry Fanchion when he had
attracted great deal of attention,
and won the sympathy and pity Of
the whole town. That had been over
forty years ago, and in the meantime
the town had changed from village
into city. The old families had died
cut and the younger generation had
forgotten the history of Perry Fan
chiOn.
1t was Christmas eve night and bit
terly cold. Sleet and snow drove with
hcessant fury against the great French
windows. The heavy old oak doors
ratified and shook, while the wind
shrilled mournfully among the many
old-fashioned gables and chimneys.
Perry sat gazing into the fire. His
hair was snow-white, his eyes were
