1t was as if 1 myself walked
along by her side, as she walked
with him in her home city. l, my
self, blood of his blood, and having
up seemed to be going through,
undergoing the self-same trials and
ordeals that she beset him with.
ooh, dear God" I groaned in
agony of soul! David went a court
in, Margery, and that English chit
days and days and until wee sma'
him! she escortA him, not to NOV
les, but to her church and had him
down in the basement being prayed
over by her cult!
It's a new branch from what you
and / know back there, and she's
what [ call a fanatic!
It's like raking my bruised and
bleeding soul with fire to review this,
but Marge, women seem to have
gotten the idea they've got to
change the man they marry, and
no matter to the man if he has no
vices, he might as we'll have, be-
cause she's going to reform some
thing about him, and he might as
well look out! Only he doesn't know
what's coming along. she acts so
sweetly saintish in her maneuVers,
and he's blinded by love and I'M
sleeve.
He went counting.
Her diary opened my blinded
eyes.
Now, Marge, father, nor Berne
can't see nor feel as / do. l tried
to make them in vain.
Men are queer that way. [ be-

and remark, "A match" But I

While she's not a direct cause,
she's an indirect cause. of all our
sorrow. And, when We're together
L know we each have a feeling of
something between us foreVermore.
L sense it terribly.
She thinks she's right in her
stand, but [ know she's wrong, and
believe she'll live to find it out in
a way that will cause her to suf-
fer for her fanatic notions. She
couldn't marry David unless he
was changed, because she'd grow
old and unhappy in thought of their
eternal separation. Marge, how
with her, or with him?
She did not love my brother as
I loved Don. / married him as he
was and trusted the future and
God Tor the balance. NO, MarSe,
that wedding chit of a girl has
lots to learn in life. Folks say she'll
marry in no time and forget
Let her marry. Then she'll learn
some sense. And, I hope he's got q
reserved ticket in heaven, else he's
got it coming to him. And, Marge,
her learning will begin when she
marries! His counting was pathetic.
He told her he'd rather be shot than
to deceive her in regard to the re-
ligious matters-but after her fam
ily's and her efforts, he decided it
all her great grievings over "the

SO, he came home in miserable

days. You see he'd no resisting
