—Isabella Seymour, daughter
ex•Ald. Seytnonr,of Berlin, in 188
was engaged to be married to John
Puddoek, foreman of a woolen mill
at St. Jacobs. At the same time
the young lady was receiving ad-
vances from a young man named
Charles Gordon, the son of a neigh-
bor. The girl's betrayal by Gordon
became knuwu to her father. Not
wishing to spoil the prospects of his
daughter's marriage with Puddock,
he made a settlement with Gordon,
instead of suing him. Gordon paid
$200 cash dawn, and gave a bond
that he would pay $60 a year for
five years to the father, in trust for
Isabella. Paddock was kept in ig-
norance of his intended's condition,
and the marriage was duly soleauliz
ed. Pwuldock's courtship had been
a confiding one, and he was greatly
surprised wheu his wife presented
him with a son about two months
after marriage. She then confessed
to him the whole story of her he•
trayal and the settlement. • In the
meantime, however, old Samuel
Seymour had;been collecting looney
from Gordon and failing to account
for it. Mr. and Mrs. Puddoek then
made it up between them and sued
the old man on behalf of the illegi•
timate sour whnnr they named
Claude, to recover the money due
them from Gordon. The old man
was sold out, and $390 paid into
Court for the benefit of the infant
and ite mother.

THE MOTHER OF JOHN.
Craig's Hollow is six guiles front
Four Fork's a dozen uurth of
Cherry Creek, and lies itself on the
lett bauk of the Scorpion River.
Without reference to any of the
great cities east or west of the
Hollow, this is the most accurate
geographical location of it that caul
be given.
The population of Crtig's Hollow
consists of sixty persons. If you
exclude from these sixty the post-
master, the county Office] 8, IBC' Lid -
ing Sheriff Fagin and four deputies,
the retnaioder are tax payers.
Craig's county, of which Craig's
Hollow is the seat of government,
is eighty utiles long and nearly
eighty wide. A German princi-
pality would be lost in this im-
mensity of area, which through cat-
tle and grase plains supports about
500 souls.
Just three years and three months
ago to -day ecu of the tax -payers of
Craig's Hollow was John Hills.
Being oo familiar terms with the
other fifty-nine residents .of the
Hollow, he was never referred to as
John Hills, but as plain John. He
was a single Ulan, born no one
knew whore, raised in unknown
parts, eitizeus of the Hollows these
ten years gone, By daylight his
occupation was that of a dealer iu
Irides. At night, as opportunity
offered and greed urged on, he stole
cattle and speculated with the
stolen animals.
In the latter pursuit he was aided
and abetted by the fifty-nine citizens
of the Hollow, leas the officials, but
they wore never found out. When
complaints were made it was in•
variably John 1110ne who was se-
cused, and it was John who laugh
ed back and wanted to know what
they worn going to do about it.
Severallimes the Sheriff called
n John, but the latter's Winchester

s to shoot him on sight. They
ained the best of friends.

A long silence, then :

Ho tossed John an open letter ad-

read like this, dating from au East

John crushed the letter in his
hands. Through the shadows in the
cell the Sheriff could see his face
working. IIe pulled himself to

"My mother's dead. This wo-
man's mistaken. Godabe with you,
Fagin, if you tell her wrong.

"No, I understand that," said
Fagin, backing out of the cell and
carefully locking the door, "hut

John sprang at him, but the bars

turned the lock, and set John free
for his daily walls. As he passed up
and down he hr aid the outer floors
opening and clanging. At broad noon
the.cnrridor wasbut a holeof shadows.
John heard the rustle of a dress, a
light step, be half turned and stop-
ped.
Out of 2lll' dull nese stepped a
little, old woman, calling :
"John—ins sou, John."
His muscles did not quiver, there
was no droop of the eye nor trembl-
ing of the lips before the unerring
intuitions of maternity. Calmly he
spoke :
"Yon are mistaken. 1 ate not
your son."
Iter hands caught his, and the Cr,
broke again against the bars of iron
and walls of store.
"John—my son, John."
Ile did not put her off roughly,
but entreaty and tears did not
move llim—nay, nor the wounded
finger from which the circle of gold
was gone.
"I am not your son."
So she went Lack, trembling, un-
nerved, half doubtiug, half believ-
ing her senses, and the hours of his
enol cane on. Fagin divined the
manhood which had sought to spare
the ulother'e heart one last unutter-
able anguish. •
Fagin set the black cap on his
head and drew the rope to proper
piece. Fagin whispered :
"And not a word to your mother,
John1"
No, not one word ; only before
the last short moment :
"I am not iter son.,'
"i believe this prisoner to be

be executed two weeks from this
date, Ho that you can see hint if you

A week later when the stage drew
rip at the Craig's Hollow Ho1.01,ithe
gapers and loungers saw Sheriff
Fagin assist to alight a little, old
woman with the whitest of hair, the
mildest, of blue eyes and a face full
of tenderness. It was soon noised
about that "John Hills' mother"
hart corms to save him. The cum,
munity felt an immense relief at

execution. Immediate steps were
taken for the seizure of Fagin, the
rescue of John, his restoration to
his mother, and then the hurrying
of both to far away places. But first
it was only proper that John end leis
mother should meet. The plottera
waited.
In the hotel John's mother was
being honored with every oaten.
