never forget that last long night,
when most of the time I sat with
his hand in my hand. He would
hold me as tightly as his waning
strength would let him, and he
asked me to hold him close to my
breast-and then l thought I
knew what a mans son may
mean to him-and l was the only
son. And with never a complaint
about his painful journey down
the dark vale, he said he knew
it was death that had come close
upon him, and after the darkness
of the long, long night had been
dispelled and the summer sun
had again streamed in through
the windows, he clasped tight
my hand and said:
Son, you remember when a

myself to this task has awakened
me in greater hopes and ambi-
tons than otherwise I might
have had and brought me face to
face with all the rich promises
that life has to offer.
Six years elapsed after his
death before 1 married, and with
in a short time was crowded al
most a lifetime of living. Finan-
cial necessities pressed upon me.
We were expecting our first
baby, the boy who stops me now
to ask questions. was perplexed
at imaginary problems that
should have never troubled me.
l was going through my first
political campaign, and green at
that. Things weighed heavily
upon my mind. But I took com.
fort when thought of the heavy
burden my father had carried
through all the years, heavier
than those l had known. I rested
badly at night and awoke tired
and disturbed in mind.
One morning a wonderful ex-
perience came to me, My Dad
and | were talking together. It
seemed he had not been dead,
just gone away from home a
little while, maybe no farther
than Baltimore, where he had
been working. He had not gone
to stay and had returned to give
me advice and to comfort me
to remind me that my troubles
were nothing as compared with
hiS-to take courage and be
man. 1t seemed that Dad was
very we'll and had been getting
on fine and there was no signs
that a dreadful malady had des-
troyed a body so long under
nourished and overworked. A
great peace descended upon me.
My spirits scared and all was
well. Many times thereafter, ne
has come to me with abundant
comfort and sustaining memor-
les.
l think everyone at some time
IN life goes through hell. l know
l went through hell in the agony
OF self-repreoach that followed
those neglectful years. But such
experiences stiffen ones pride. II

refused to yield and built my To-
gic to fit the case and developed
consolation that brought help
full peace and understanding.
First, / told myself that Dad
would have been hurt to see me
shrink from the responsibilities
he left me. My pride would not
let me down; it made me deeply
conscious of the debt I owed in
repayment of the great sacrifices
he had made. And 1 thought of
his bitter disappointment at see
ing his first three sons 60 into
childhood graves before he saw
one live; l thought of all the
years of toll he'd invested in my
life, and l knew ! just couldn't
fail, l knew what I did today
would not pay him back in per-
son, but l believe if ! did some
of the things he had longed to
do, I would be carrying ON. I
felt that it would give him joy
to know that I at last, had caught
the vision and also was willing
to do something as he would
have had it done.
Never again did l think first
of the fulfillment of any of my
childhood dreams. I just thought
if could bring up in life my
own little boys and go with
them hand in hand, and.be the
better prepared to teach them
earlier in life, they should be my
pals and if they should become
good men to hold up the torch
and carry on-then l would be
squaring things up with Dad.
Yes, l am fully aware that our
road in life has been smoothed
by those who have gone before.
There is no way now we can re-
pay them for their labor, any
more than l can repay my Dad.
But the way is plain and the
signs to me have become easier
to read.
I cannot bring Dad back and
restore to him that which should
rightfully have been his; l can
not square things up with him
that way, I must square up
things in other ways. I must
look forward inflexibly to doing
Or my boys what he wanted to

little boy, you used to hold my
hand as we walked about the
place. You did not know what
comfort and joy it was to me
then, but to have held you close
last night was more comfort to
me than it was then, and your
nearness sustained and helped
me just as when you were a
little boy"
Those were the last words he
said to me, the boy whose form
had filled his dreams had been
the center of his hopes and sac
rifices and his ambitions, that I
might sometime achieve some of
those things that must have been
a part of his own youthful as
pirationS. And the weary old
form was still, the tired old eyes
were closed and forever gone
from me was his ever ready
counsel; the encouragement and
friendly advice of the greatest
friend l ever had.
1t hurts me now to recall the
hours of agony that followed,
and my despair. Before me rolled
up the years l had neglected him
in the flesh-I recalled so many
simple little things l failed to
do that would have brought him
Unreasonable joy. With bitter
ness I upbraided myself at not
realizing until too late how the
things undone might have brou-
ght me priceless dividends-in
[ happiness and contentment
I 1 crawled away to my desper-
ate self, much as wounded ami
NAL might have done. wished
to be alone. With pen On paper
blurred by the pent up tears of
manhood, made a resolution to
! try to live as he might have
wished me to live. After he had
gone in his grave, l found the
I letter that he had never read,
and recalled that it, too, was
my solemn promise to the dead,
and resolved to try to keep that
too.
The years flew OIL was alone
with no rock to lean upon. My
battles had to be fought alone.
l had no confidants. Decisions
had to be made and many bur-
dens manfully carried. From an
existence comparatively aimless
and without purpose, I launched
now with renewed hope and
spirit. 1t was three years before
l could return home to live and
to look after things. The home
place had started to return to.
the forest. l found my future for
years ahead was mortgaged to
the promises I had made; but
they hung as tender shackles
that bound me to the task and
gave me a purpose in life, and
taught me what would gain most
Joy was that l might do fer
others.
l had failed it seemed to me,
to do the things l should have
done for the comfort of this man
who had done so much for me.
But I launched into the task with
all my mind and heart. The bust
ness of making a living, spared |
me little toward restoring the |
old home. Yet the discipline, the
the constant binding of |
