CHAPTER TT


Two months of illness in the
mountains of Arizona was fol-
lowed by signs of recovery. On
trip to the mountains he had
been almost reduced to a skel-
eton. The trip had been too sew
ere on him. He wrote to Nina
three times a week telling her
that he was improving rapidly.
Six months after his depart
ure he wrote Nina telling her
Iof the wonderful Arizona air
and how fast he was recover
ing. AS she was walking along
from the post office reading
her letter, she met Jim Hylton,
who asked her to let him walk
home with her. She told him
that he might. She told him he
might call the following Satur-
day night.
During the next three mon
tbs Jim and Nina were togeth-
er every Saturday night. People
began to gossip about the two.
Some began to prophesy that
Richard would loose Nina.
Richard had improved SO
much by the first of March,
he decided to surprise Nina. He
decided to return home the
first of April instead of the
first of May.
DAYS passed in the stormy
month of March. Nina had be-
gun to grow thin and weak.
Her mother became alarmed a..
bout her. They thought she had
consumption. They had her ex-
amined by one of the best ply
sicians in town. He said she

came to look at the river per-
haps for the last time, as the
doctor had told him the day be-
fore that he did not have a
year to live unless he moved
from the climate where he was
now living. He had made up his
mind to leave his beloved home
and go west in search of a eli
mate that would be favorable
to his health. He did not think
that he was so bad as the doc
tor had said. AS he looked into
the water a tear dropped from
his eyes and fell into the river.
With pain in his breast he
turned and walked toward Nina
Blair's home, to babe her fare,
we'll as this was one among the
many girls that Richard Hale
had spent many happy hours
with.
She met him at the door, no.
ticing his pale face she asked
him what was wrong.
'N-Ni-Na" he said then he
seemed to gulp and choke, I

Nina looked at him with star

yond my understanding. What
do you mean by them?

CHAPTER l

The river flows unsteady
through the meadow, falling
gently over the rocks, and wind
ing itself around the spur like
8 giant serpent. On the slopes
the beautiful grass waved in
the spring sun. Beautiful trees
lined the river on each side. A
well worn path ran to the river
where the cattle came to drink
each day. The river was well
stocked with fish. Beautiful
orchards stretched from the
top Of the slopes to the river.
On the top of a little hill
nearby, an old farmhouse
stood. Here a young, man lived
with his mother. The house
was very beautiful, being one
of the colonial type which you
see so often in parts of the
"OLD DOMINION. Beautiful
hedges well pruned lined each
side of the walk which ran
through the yard to the door.
In the yard were shade bushes,
and other shrubs and flowers.
One morning in the blessed
month of May a pale young
man walked between the rows
of hedges, down the path to the
river. He stood on the river
bank and looked down into the
water. This was his favorite
place. He had often sat there
