input: CHAPTER XX

THE LAST NIGHT

"Juist another sax nichts, Jamie," Jess would say, sadly. "Juist fower nichts noo, an' you'll be awa." Even as she spoke seemed to come the last night.

The last night! Reserve slipped unheeded to the floor. Hendry wandered ben and but the house, and Jamie sat at the window holding his mother's hand. You must walk softly now if you would cross that humble threshold. I stop at the door. Then, as now, I was a lonely man, and when the last night came the attic was the place for me.

This family affection, how good and beautiful it is. Men and maids love, and after many years they may rise to this. It is the grand proof of the goodness in human nature, for it means, that the more we see of each other the more we find that is lovable. If you would cease to dislike a man, try to get nearer his heart.

Leeby had no longer any excuse for bustling about. Everything was ready--too soon. Hendry had been to the fish-cadger in the square to get a bervie for Jamie's supper, and Jamie had eaten it, trying to look as if it made him happier. His little box was packed and strapped, and stood terribly conspicuous against the dresser. Jess had packed it herself.

"Ye mauna trachle (trouble) yersel, mother," Jamie said, when she had the empty box pulled toward her.

Leeby was wiser.

"Let her do't," she whispered, "it'll keep her frae broodin'." 1. How long did Jamie have to wait?

input: Yousuf Karsh,the Canadian portrait artist who photographed many of the most influential figures of the 20thcentury,died in a Boston hospital on July l3 th,2002.He was 93.

Working from a studio in Ottawa,Karsh produced famous portraits of such subjects as Winston Churchill,John F.Kennedy,Ernest Hemingway and Albert Einstein.Actually he has become almost as famous as his legendary subjects.In the latest edition of Who's Who,which listed the most notable people of the last century,Karsh was the only Canadian of the 100 famous people listed----51 0f whom Karsh had photographed.

As a master portraitist,often working in black and white.Karsh was famous for talking to his subjects as he was getting the shot's composition just right,asking them questions and putting them at ease.In preparation,he read as much as he could about the _ ,but avoided having the idea beforehand of how he would photograph them.He sought, as he wrote in Karsh Portfolio in 1967,to capture the "essential element which has made them great," explaining,"All I know is that within every mall a secret is hidden,and as a photographer, it is my task to reveal it if I can."

Karsh was born in America in 1908,and his uncle,George Nakash,brought him to John Garo,all outstanding photographer,to teach him in 1928.Four years later,Karsh set up his own studio in Ottawa.

In December of 1941,his memorable portrait of Winston Churchill brought Karsh into international fame.Canada's Prime Minister Mackenzie King arranged for him to photograph Churchill following Churchill's speech in the House of Commons.Not told,Churchill lit up a cigar, "Why was I not told of this?'' Karsh asked him to remove the cigar and,when he didn't,stepped forward and gently removed it with the comment,"Forgive me,Sir."Churchill glowered as the shot was taken,then permitted Karsh to take still another,;jokingly commenting,"You can even make a roaring lion stand still to be photographed." The Churchill portrait has since appeared in publications all over the world.

Karsh traveled to London in 1943 with his portable studio ---- an 8-by-10 view camera and many studio lamps to photograph such notables as George Bernard Shaw and the royal family.All these portraits fully illustrate Karsh's ability. 1. Where was Karsh born?
