THE BRAvii GIRL OF
GLENBARR. I
Meanwhile old Donald had bee out
of doors, seeing to his own work with
the beasts, and about the farm uild-
ings, and when he returned to the house
his habitual cautiousness seemed t have
returned with him..
"Yon had the skull, Mary 7" he ask-
ed.
• "Yes, master. I have put it
in a safe place but I can bring
yo4,"
"I don't want to see it again
you're surerit's the same skull,
I'm thinking that it might be on
elsewhere."
"It's the one that you bid me
you, Mr. Madame, and it's frog

Saddell. I took it from under th arch,
and I carried it all the way here.'
And then she told hint the cilium -
stances under which she had obtained
it, and•the mysterious sounds th t. she
had heard in the old church.
"It's a strange tale," said old D nald.
"I'm doubting the facts, Mary."
"If ye'll go there-," she replied; )"ye'll
find all the facts, Mr. Macbane."
Then he said, "I'll take ye at your
word, -Mary ; it's broad daylight now,
and the storm is blown over. I thought
that Jock MacPhail -this was hisfarm-
ing man °might have been keeping
Hogmanay ;: but he's corns to the work,
and I'll go away to Saddell, and he
shall go with me, for an eye -witness of
the facts. And. we'll prove your words,
Mary Mori° ;fin and we shall see if there
are your tracks iu the snow right'up to
the old church ; and I'm thinking, my
lass, thatas likely ae not we shall find
the true murderer's skall on the great
Macdonald's tomb."
"I took the skull from there,,Mr.
Maabane ; it's all true that I've) told
nue"
"Ay, ay, we'll see, Mary, we'll Isee 1"
*Aid old Donald. And soon after she
saw him, in company with Jock iMac-
Phail, 'plodding up the hillside, and
taking that snowy path to Saddell,
along which she had so bravely labored
during the long hours of the preceding
night.
It was afternoon on that New ear's
day before old Donald returned to len-
barr, for, vigorous though he was, yet
the elasticity of youth was past, ad he
had been compelled to rest several Imes
-by the way. Not only did his
to an,
Jock MacPhail, return with hind, lent
his son Donald also, greatly to Mary's
surprise. Her lover soon explained it
to' her :
"I met them, quite accidentally, be-
tween here and Saddell. I learnt 'what
they were after, and I went with them
to see fair play." I
"But, Donald," she said ; "you are
back from the fair a day earlier than
you expected?" 1
"Yes," he replied ; "I sold the beasts,
and I did all the business that I want-
ed. And besides -I had a dream, a
bad. dream ; it was about you, Mary.
I thought you had gone down into some
dreadful charnel house, though 1 yon
were not dead ; and I was disturbed
that greatly that nothing would pacify
me but to hasten back to Glenberr;, and
know that you were safe, and that my
evil dream was an empty vision.'" I -
And. then, between those soft oth-
ings that lovers delight in after aa ab-
sence, however brief -and this parting
had, for them, been a long one+ -she
toldhim how very near his drea m had
been of coming true ; and that she,
during the night, had been really among
the graves and relics of the dead.
Yes, he knew all about it. That
casual meeting with his father, so un-
expectedy, had led to the needful ex-
planation, and he had retraoed'his steps
with them to the old ruined monas-
tery at Saddell, to be a witness, on
his true love's behalf, to what they saw
there.
"And," continued young Do,> :aid,
"when we got to the old church, and
found the door shut, just as you p had
left it, and burst it open, what do you
suppose wefound there 7"
"Not -ghosts?" she faltered. I
"Well," replied. young Donald, du-
biously, "certainly they may_ have been
called something else than ghosts, for
they had hoofs, and not a few of them
had horns. Yet, they were not uncanny
creatures for all that. They were deer,
a number of wild deer; who. had evi-
dently pushed their way into the old
church toseek shelter from the now
stone., and then, when they had well
frightened you, my poor darling, with
their moanings and rushings about,
they tried to make their escape but
you effectually stopped them by slam-
ming the door in their faces. There,
at any rate, we three found them, and
very pleased they seemed when we let
them out."
"And did you find that skull on the
old tomb ?"
"No ! we found your footmarks there,
and the place' where your plaid had
swept the snow from the slab ; but the
skullwas gone."
"And here it is," she `said, trium-
phantly, as she produced it from • the
place where she had put it for safety,.
"It'sa strange thing for a love -token,
Donald, or for a New Year's gift, but I
went through all I did to gaie it, for
your dear sake."
Then h.er lover took her in his arms.
"And I have brought a Hogmanay, gilt
for you, dear," and from a dainty little'
box he produced a cairngorm brooch,
with which she might fasten her shawl
or plaid when she went to kirk on the
Sabbath ; and from a still smaller box,
which, in her eyes at least, Looked far
daintier than4the , other -he showed her
a plain gold ring,. which fitted the third
finger of her left hand, "for," as he said,
"there's no knowing what may happen,
and how soon we may want to use it-"
Then he vowed to her, amid many kiss-
es, that she needed not such a, cruel test
to have been put upon her affection by
his father's stern will ; and that, come
what might., he would marry her as
soon as their bauue or spurrings
could be put up, without waiting for
May -day.
And he did so, she being quite agree-
able to the same, and no longer bonud
to Mr. Mebane as his servant ; for the
stern old father, taking a lesson by the
events of that well -remembered night
on tore last day of the old year, and
thankful for his escape from any evil
that, through him, might have befallen
Mary Morrison, gave his consent to her
marriage with his son, and, with the
promise that they would still continue
to live with him at the farm, divided
his fortune with them.
On the wedding day, Janet Bailie,
who was her bridemaid, told Mary, in
strict confidence, that it would not e i
many months before she followed h r
example, for that she had proised
be married to the young miller t Mu s -
dale, who had been so long pay ng h r
attention. And, to add to the °bents of
the happy day, the laird of Saddt li, w o
had been told of that midnight 'visit of
Mary Morrison . to the, old Ichur h,
alanghtered a fine buck that had lay d
his part on that occasion, and s t h' m
over as a gift to Mary, in orderha a
haunch of 'venison might gr c t e
wedding -feast of the Brave Girl of GI n-
barr.

Oakes.
A few of the personal exper ces of
'the late Garrett Oakes, who i d in
Elgin county only a few we k a o,
having attained the great age f 96
years, are so interesting that we re-
produce them from the St. T as
Times of the 19th inst.:

this was the fact. He was, however, to

certainty, determine which direction

he made choice and. started. He
walked on with as much vigor a his
exhausted frame would permit f, and
