It seemed shame to get up
an elaborate wedding supper
for just the CareyS, so she
asked her old. friend, Augusta

Lucy Cordova, a Sad-faced
widow, with whom she was not
as a rule on the best Of terms.
There was a little argument
about the minister.
The Careys had all gone to
the Congregational Sunday
school, and Mrs. Carey still at
tended church and church
activities occasionally. So she
said that it would be only
right for Mr.. Hink, the Con-
gregational minister, to be
asked to officiate at the
wedding.

soon have had Mr.. Hink as any

against him.
