We take our leave OF thee with mingled

woe,
But now thy task for aye ia ended;
we pay thee grateful homage ere thou

whom her heart had been crying out
all day long.

bright living-rOOm's light stepped O
very flesh-and-blOod little boy with

garments put on awry that badly need

"Why, it's the poor farms new little
orphan" somebody cried in relief.
what In the world are you doing
here, son?"
Ignoring the others, the child walked
straight up to Maggie Mackenzie.

said, a catch in his breath.
And with her sad face now radiant,
shining light in her eyes, the home

arms and hugged him close.

instead, darling" she whispered be.
