Picking Up the Threads.

I turned my head slightly on the
hard shuck pillow and gazed curiously
about. When my eyes had first
opened all 1 could perceive was the
section of log wall against which l
rested, but now, after painfully turn
ing over, the entire interior Of the
sngle-room cabin was revealed. 1t
was humble enough In all its appoint
ments, the walls quite bare, the few
chairs fashioned from half-barrels, a
packing box for table, and the mar
row bed on which lay constructed
from saplings dashed together, COW
cred with coarse ticking packed
with straw. I surveyed the entire cir
cult Of the room wonderingly, vague
memory of what had lately occurred
returning slowly to mind. To all ap-
pearances was there alone, although
close beside me stood a low stool,
supporting a tin basin partially filed
with water. AS moved l became
conscious Of dull pain In my left
shoulder, which I also discovered to
be tightly bandaged.

thoughts were so busy 1t seemed as If
must have been lying there undis-
turbed for some time, before the door
opened quietly and ! became aware
of another occupant Of the room. Pay
ing no attention to me, he crossed TO
the fireplace, stirred the few smolder-
ing embers into flame, placing uDon
these some bits of dried wood, and
then idly watched as they caught fire.
The newcomer was a negro, gray
haired but still vigorous, evidently a
powerful fellow judging from his
breadth Of shoulder, and possessing
face denoting considerable intelli-
gence. Finally he Strengthened up
and faced me, his eyes widening with
interest as he caught mine fastened

were cultivated plantations and little

passing steamboats,.
The night air increased In chilliness
as the hours approached dawn, and 1
shivered In my wet clothes, although
this only served to arouse me into i'm

ever as again attempted to move my
weakness and exhaustion from the
