CHAPTER XIV.

In Which Abe Returns From VandaIia and Is Engaged to Ann, and Three
 Interesting Slaves Arrive at the Home of Samson Traylor, Who, With Harry Needles, Has an Ad- venture of Much importance on the
 Underground Road. J Abe came back from the legislature to resume his duties as postmaster. The evening of his arrival he went to see Ann. The girl was in poor health. She had had no news of McNamar since January. Her spirit seemed to be broken. They walked together up and down the deserted street of the little village that evening. Abe told her of his life in Vandalia and of his hopes and plans.
 My greatest hope is that you will feel that you can put up with me-" he said. "I would try to learn how to make you happy. I think if you would help me little could do it."
 If you want me to, I will marry you, Abe," said she. "I cannot say that I love you, but my mother and |. father say that I would learn to love you, and sometimes I think it is true. I really want to love you."
 They were on the bluff that over looked the river and the deserted mill. They were quite alone looking down at the moonlit plains. A broken sigh came from the lips of the tall young man. He wiped his eyes with his handkerchief. He took her hand ir both of his and pressed it against his breast and looked down into her face and said:
 q wish I could tell you what is 1T my heart. There are things thi' tongue of mine could say, but no that. I shall show you. but shall no try to tell you. Words are goo' enough for politics and even for th' religion of most men, but not for thi' love I feel. Only in my life shah try to express it.'
 He held her hand as they walked ol in silence for moment. a
 About aryear from now we can married" hs said. 'I shall be abl to take care of you then, l think Meanwhile we will all help you to talk care of yourself. You don't look well.
