 I made out the statement very neat ly and carefully and put it in his hands.
 "That is well done," said he. q shall wish you to stay until the day after to- morrow, if you will. So you will please add another day"
 I amended the statement and he paid me the handsome sum of seven dollars. I remember that after I went to my room that night I stitched up the open ing in my jacket pocket, which con- tained my wealth, with the needle and thread which Aunt Deel had put in my bundle, and slept with the jacket un- der my mattress.

 l never heard him speak of it again. Indeed, although I knew the topic was often in our thoughts it was never mentioned in our home but once after that, to my knowledge.
 We sat for long time thinking as the night came on.
 That week letter came to me from 1 the senator, announcing the day of l Mrs. Wright's arrival in Canton and asking me to meet and assist her in getting the house to rights. I did so. She was a pleasant-faced, amiable woman and a most enterprising house cleaner. I remember that my first task was mending the wheelbarrow.
 'I don't know what Silas would do II lt "tIS IO SCL dUu uuu HIS wheelbarrow broken" said she. sIt is almost an inseparable companion of his"
 The schoolmaster and his family were fishing and camping upon the river, and so I lived at the senator's house with Mrs. Wright and her moth- CT until he arrived. What a wonderful house it was, in my view! I was awed by it's size and splendor, it's soft car pets and shiny brass and mahogany. Yet it was very simple.
 I hoed the garden and cleaned it's paths and moved the dooryard and did some painting in the house.
 The senator returned to Canton that evening on the Watertown stage. He greeted me with a fatherly warmth. Again I felt that strong appeal to my eye in his broadcloth and fine linen and beaver hat and in the splendid dignity and courtesy of his manners.
 ssTve had good reports of you, Bart, and I'm very glad to see you," he said.
 "I believe your own marks have been excellent in the last year." I ven- tured.
 Poorer than I could wish. The teacher has been very kind to me-" he laughed. "What have you been study ingf"
 Latin q always mentioned the Latin first), algebra, arithmetic, gram mar, geography and history"
 He asked about my aunt and uncle and told him of all that had befallen us, save the one thing of which I had spoken only with him and Sally.
 'I shall go up to see them soon," he said.
 The people of the little village had learned that he preferred to be let alone when he had just returned over the long, wearisome way from the scene of his labors. So we had the evening to ourselves.
 Mrs. Wright, being weary after the days work, went to bed early and, at his request, I sat with the senator by

They tell me that Purvis is a man of nerve and vigor." l had drafted my letters for the day and was about to close my des'- and start on my journey when Louis La tour came in and announced that he had brought the writs from the judge and was going with me.
 q wouldn't miss it for a thousand dollars" he remarked. By love! l think we'll have a bully time."
 q don't object to your going but you must remember that I am in com mand," I said, little taken back, for I had no good opinion either of his prudence or his company.
 "The judge told me that I could go but that I should be under your or ders," he answered. "I'm not going to be fool. I'm trying to establish a reputation for good sense myself"
 We got our dinners and set out soon after one o'clock. I had read the deeds of the men we were to visit, They were brothers and lived on ad- joining farms with leases which coy- cred three hundred and fifty acres of land. Their great-grandfather had agreed to pay yearly rent forever of sixty-two bushels of good, sweet, mer- chantable, winter wheat, eight yearling cattle and four sheep in good flesh and sixteen fat hens, all to be delivered in the city of Albany on the first day of January of each year. So, feeling that I was engaged in a just cause, I brave ly determined to serve the writs if possible.
 I rode in silence, thinking of Sally and of those beautiful days now reced- ing into the past and of my aunt and uncle. I had written a letter to them every week and one or the other had answered it. Between the lines I had detected the note of loneliness. They had told me the small news of the countryside. How narrow and mo- notonous it all seemed to me then! Rodney Barnes had bought a new farm; John Axtell had been hurt in a runaway; my white mare had got a spavinl
