 Now the old couple walked wear fly up the tiny path leading to their house. It was quite dark, and a chill wind buffeted against them.
 You get some wood in, Caleb, " said Molly, trying to sound as cheer ful as usual "and I'll hustle around and light up. We've got some cold potatoes to warm up and a little boiled ham. We'll have supper ready soon.'
 They went busily about their tasks trying not to think of that dread full monient in the store when Caleb reached into his inside coat pocket and found his wallet missing. They had had to leave at once with frightened and mumbled excuses to skeptical clerk. Molly found some change in her little bag; just enough to pay their fares back to the vil- lage where they lived.
