sworn, said Tom Nulty had belonged, to
bis compant, and turned out to be a good
soldier. Saw the prisoner the day after
the murder and asked Tom where he had
spent the morning of the previous day.
He received an evasive answer. In the
. course of their conversation, Tom said:
1 "You surely don't suspect me?"
Jules Grenier sled Tom Nulty bad ap-
plied for work, in his lumber shanty on
; the afternoon of the day of the murders.
1 This witness' son also, testified that he
had worked along with prisoner in the
lumber camp and never heard. him corn-

' acted irrationally. •
Octave Riopelle, who had known the
family for 52 years, swore that he never
knew that Tom's grandfather was a
drunkard or that his grandmother died of

awop with ye in order to booth Squan
Creek and git bizness on the lump, but
ye are so tarnal mean that I won't do it."
That was the very beginnin of the affair,
and it went on for three years. Arter
about a month everybody in &plan Creek
began to take sides and argy and git mad.
The women was arawed into It as well as
the men, and thar Wasn't no more lendin
of quilt frames and flatirons and wash-
boards. Bimeby the preacher felt called
upon to interfere, 'cause it was van roll -
gun, and he goes to Hiram Spooner and
says:
"Hiram, the Lord won't allow a liar to
prosper. That jackknife of yours was
tweet* found stickin in a whale, and I
Want ye to own up that it wasn't and
stop this quarrelin."
Hiram said he'd own up if Abe would,
but Abe's wife bad the only blue bordered
tablecloth in Squat) Creek, and she felt SO
stuck up over it that she wouldn't let .Abe
take a drop. That kept the quarrel goin
redhot and everybody on edge. Every few
days Illram and A bo would meet at Par -
leer's or in the poetefileo, an darter they had
got out their jackknives and whittled up
• three or four shingles apiece Abe would
• lovingly say: .
"I'm aeavoppin jackkeives with any-
body as wants to, for the sake of bumpin
bizness in Sqvum Creek, but I don't want
310 knife as was found stickin in a whale.
I'm afeared it would make a Jotter of me."
.And then all. the folks would look at
Hiram and expect him to say soinethin, and
purty soon the end of his nose would git
reddish, end he'd answer back:
"I'd like to see bizeess hump, too, but I
ain't swoppin Iteives with )10 liar. A
• teller as will lie about his own grandfa-
ther will lie about a blind orphan."
In the spring Abe Osgood went off in a
(schooner and got wrecked and didn't git
back for two years, and Hiram Spooner
went down to North Caroliny and was
goee about as long. Both got back the
same day, mid as they found each other in
the grocery, both whitain away in the
etune old fashion, Abe feels called upon to
say:
"Hiram, mebbe ye was makin a voyage
to the Pacific to find that 'ere whale and
sharpen that krilfe agan his teeth?"
And Hiram waited a minit to cough
and spit on the stove afore be replied:
"And, Abe, mebbe ye was out west
buntin for that peg yer grandfather cut
outer Ids boot with that $20 jaelaenife."

thought for the things of itself. Suflioi out

thoughts of last lesson on living by the
day are appropriate here also. We are not
to say tomorrow we will do thus and so,
but if the Lord will we shell live and do
this or that (Jas. 15', 18-15). Neither are
we to borrow tomorrow's cares, but just
today live unto HIM "in quietness =4 in
confidence" (Ise.. mot, 15), "Doing as. oc-
casion serve thee, for God Is with thee"
(I Sam. x, 7).
