"Yes?" His throat felt dry. He ran
his tongue along his lips.
Its ab-ut myself. About us. You
see, I'm so very young. Younger per-

though I know my own mind. as
though nothing could ever change the

older things about me did change-my

X A*
CREG'S heart stood still. Slowly,
very slowly, the significance Of
what she had said. of what she was
trying to do, became clear to him. She
wanted to be fair. She didn't want to
cheat or take advantage. She loved him.
but loving him she wanted to be honest
And so reason and unselhshness
came from the remote recesses of
Greg's mind and haunted him.
How old do you think I am?' he
asked And an eternity passed while
he waited for her answer If only she
gave his correct age. If only he had
been mistaken in the belief that he
had misled her as he had others.
Il don't know" she smiled. You're

ence does it make?"
What difference? For one f1eeting
mom"nt temptation fought against
the reason and unselfishness. Then he
turned away, laughing hollowly. She
caught his arm
Greg" she cried. Greg! What Is
it? What's the matter?"
He faced her, still laughing. What
do you think? I suppose I should
thank you for being fair, for reminding
me. After all. you are only kid I'M
mature OF course, you'll change. I
should have thought Of it myself. It's
too big chance to take-keeping on.
Lucky thing one of us thought of it in
time. We've probably saved ourselves
a lot OF grief-a lot of grief" And he
turned and this time went on down the
hill, blindly, leaving her there alone
in the moonlight.

THE inn was full of week-enders
That night in the dining room
there was CAV banter and informality.
An old-fashioned barn dance was held
In the lobby later in the evening. But
Greg and Lorena took no part. They
were aware Of none of it. nor of the

LOCAL HISTORY

By
Sfanbery Alderman

About this time, 1900, the people
of the Northwest Territory were
considering the formation of a
state. AS is usual there were more
than two factions concerned in this
matter, each having it's selfish view
point. Since ST. Clair had not been
as easily influenced by certain po-
litical leaders as they might have
desired there was a rather strong
faction forming against him, led by
Edward Tiffin, who was the speaker
of the house, and Thomas Worthing-
ton. Different sections Of the terri
tory had varied ideas as to how it
should be divided into states and
how many to form st. Clair wrote,
in letter to William Henry Har-
1ison, on February 18th, 1900:
"....a division....of the territory. lis

more than two be formed without
authority from the congress?....)
The object Of some is that the east

ST. Clair then shows, in several
letters, that the friction between
himself and the ones desiring to
form a state at once, has been grow
ing, and that his influence in con-
gress was not SO great since the
death of Washington. He writes:
"....I ought to tell you, frankly
