We .could hear thein talking .below
stairs and we went back to bed, in-
tending to go forth later when the
house was still. Bert, ,unfortunately for
our adventure, I fell asleep.
It was morning when I opened my
eyes again. We children looked accu-
singly at each other while eating
breakfaet. Then we had to 'be washed
and .clressed in our best clothes to go
to meeting. When the wagon was at
the door and we were ready to start
I had doughnuts and bread and but-
ter in every pocket of my .coat and
trousers. I got in quickly and pulled
the ,blanket over Me so as to conceal
the fulinese .of my pocicets. We arriv-
ed so late I had no chance to go to
the dog .before we went into meet-
ing. 2 was wearing boots that were
too small for me, .aad when I .entered
with the' others and sat down upon
one ,of those straight backed seats of
plain, unpainted pine my feet felt as
if I had 'been caught in a bear trap.
There was alw•ays such a silence in
the zoom after the alder had sat clown
and adjusted his spectacles that I
could hear the ticking of the watch
he carried in the pocket of his broad-
cloth waistcoat. For my •own part I
know I look with too much longing
for the goad of my soul on the great
gold chain that spanned the !broad
convexity of his 'stomach. Presently
observed that a couple of young wo-
men were 'looking at me and whisper-
ing. Then suddenly I became ,aware
that there were sundry .protuberances
on my person caused by 'bread .and
butter and doughnuts, and I felt very
miserable indeed. Now and then es
the elder spoke the loud, accusing
neigh of some horse, tethered to the
fence in the schoolyard, mingled with
his .thunder. 'After the good elder had
been preaching an hour his big, fat
horly seemed to swim in my tears.
When he had finished the choir sang.
Their singing was a thing that appeal-
ed to the eye as well as the ear. Un-
cle Eb used to say it was a great
comfort to see Elkenah Samson sing
bass, His great mouth opened widely
in this foint 1 praise and his eyes had
a wild stare in them when he aimed
at the low notes,
Ransom Walker, a man of great
dignity, with a 'bristling mustache,
who had once been a schoolmaster;
led the choir and carried the tenor
part. It was no small privilege after
the elder had announced ,the hymn,
to see him rise and tap the desk with
his tutting fork and hold .i.t to 'his ear
solemnly. Then he would seem to
press his chin lull :hard upon his
throat while 'he warbled a scale. Im-
mediately, soprano, alto, 'bass and ten-
or launched .forth upon the sea of
song. The .parts were like the treaoh-
erous and coniflicting currents of a
tide that 'tossed them roughly and
sometimes overturned their craft. And
Ransom Walker showed always a
proper sense of danger and responsi-
bility. Generally they got to port safe -
on these 'brief •excursions, though
exhaust•ed. He had a way of beating
time with his head while •singing and
I have no doubt it was a great help
to him,
The elder came over . to me after
meeting having 'taken my tears for a
sign of conviction. •
"May the Lord 'bless and comfort
you, my boy!" said he.
T got away shortly and made for the
door. fUncle Eb stopped Inc -
"My stars, Willie!" he ,putting his
hand on my upper coat pocket,
"what ye got in there?"
"Doughnuts," I answered.
"An what's this?" he asked touch-
ing one of 'my ,side pockets.
"Doughnuts," I repeated.
'An' this," he continued going
down to my trousers pocket.
"Bread an' butter," I answered,
shamefacedly, and .ots the verge of
tears.
"Jerusalem!" he exclaimed, "must
a 'spected a purty long sermon."
eeBroe.ght 'em fer ,o,P, Fred," I re-
rynd.
'''01' Fred!" he whispered, "where's
he?"
I told my secret then and we both
went out with Hope to where we had
left him. He lay with his head be-
tween his paws on the 'be•d of grass
just as I had seen him lie many s
time when his legs were weary with
travel on Paradise road and when his
(leas Were yet ,full .o'f pleasure. We
called to him and Uncle Db knelt anel
touched his head. Then he lifted dog's
hose, booked a moment into the sight-
less eyes and let it fall again.
"He's gone," said he in a low tone
ashe turned away, ''Got there ahead
nv us, Willy,"
Hope and I sat down iby the old
dog and wept 'bitterly.

;Uncle Eb was a torn lover of fan,
But he had a solemn way of fishing

only the light of hope and anticipation
Or the shadow of [disappointment.
We had finished .our stent .early the
day of which I ant writing. When we
had dug our worms and were on our
way to the brook with pole and line
a squint of elation had hold 'al Uncle
E'b's face. Long wrinkles deepened as
he looked into the sky for a sign of
the weather, and then relaxed a bit as
he turned his eyes upon the smooth
sward. it was no •time Inc idle talk.
We tiptoed over the leafy carpet of
the woods, SOon as I spoke he lifted
Itis hand with a warning "Si—h!"
The murmur of the stream was in
our ears, ;Kneeling an a mossy knoll
we baited the hooks; then Uncle Eb
beckoned to Inc.

"See thet there foam Mon side o

with his .finger,

"Cre-e-p up j'es't as ea -refill ,as ye

Then he went on, 'below me, lifting
his feet in slow and stealthy stride's.
He hall.ted 'by a 'bit •of drift wood
and cautiously threw in, his arm ex-
tended, ihis .figure .alert. Suddenly his
pole gave a leap, the water splashed,
his line sang in the air and a fish
went up like a rocket. As we were
looking into the tree tops it thumped
the shore beside him, •quivered a mo-
ment and dapped down, the bank. 'He
scrambled after it and went to his
knees in the brook coming up empty
handed. The water was slopping out
of his boot legs.
"Whew!" said he, panting with ex-
citement, as 1 came over to him.
"Reg'iar e he one," he added, look-
ing down at his boots. "Got away
from me—consarn him! 1 -led a leetle

He emptied his boots, batted up

looked up at hint he stood leaning
over the stream jiggling his hook. In
a moment I saw 'a tug at the line. The
end of his pole went under water like
a flash. It bent double as Uncle lib
gave it a lift. The line cut ,the water
in a broad semicircle and then went
far and near with long, .quick slashes,
The pole nodded and writhed like a
thing of life. Then Uncle Eb had a
look on him that is one .of the treas-
ures of his memory. In a moment the
fish went away with such a violent
rush, to save him, he had to throw
his pole into the water.
"Flea,vens an' airthl" he shouted,
