The Huron Expositor, 1884-11-07, Page 22 TI -1 HURON EXPOSITOR.. RAFT AND DORY. BY AMOR M. EDDY. Ws no use," said Bert with decis- ion; " this dory won't hold more than seven, no matter how elose we crowd." The children looked at each other dubiously. There were eight of them And the bay was all alivewith flae ing waves, and the wind blew streigh in, fresh and strong, across the detach) sapphires, and the sunlight lay full o the tempting grey rock at Point Lyle, mile away. And the dory would onl hold eeven I " Somebody roust stay behind," co tinned Bert, beginning to take off h shoes and stockings, preparatory t puehing off the Ann Mary." Ne Dick and Walter immediately followe his example. Of couree they must g to manage the boat. Katie had take her place within it already, and she se still locking gently to and fro as if sh were quite alone on the beach. Dais said it waa too bad, that the dory was s email, and Anna remarked to Bert,' suppoee I'd better take the stern sea and steer; hadn't I ?" And everybod looked at Aladge. "Bot I don't think it's fair," said the, small personage, in answer to this silen suggestion. I always have to stay Ilona if anetndy does, and I wafft to go ove to the Point avgfally. It isn't fair Someone else eug,ht to stay this time.' "Welt, I cantanybow. I shall hay to steer," said Anna, promptly taking her place ia the stern. "Don't be selfith, Mettle. give you 011e of my fishing lines if yon won' fuss, said Dick. , " Daisy or Katie might stay," said Madge, wistfully. "1 ha.vn't been over - to the Point but twice all summer, and you're always going." "Now, see here, Medgie," said Walter, coming forward with his trous- er& roiled up above his knees, "you can't do anything in. the boat yon know, and everybody dee can. Even Daisy can bail out the water, and Katie is going to tett us a fairy story ora the wey over. Besides, we °tuft always be tale: ing you around with us everytthere. You can't go; that is all there is about it. We'll bring you back lots of shells and things, so be good and don't bother Theti Madgie sat down on the "sand and began to o-ry. There was no gain- saying her elder brother's decision, but the clisappaintment was too great to be borne with calmness. She buried her face in her white apron and would not look up as. the boat moved off. "Seems to me a, girl nine years old is too big to cry over a boat ride," said Bert severely as he jumped in last. And then the "Ann Mary " danced away' toward the point, and. the company within began to talk very fast about all manner of subtecta, and to look about them in every direction but the one they had just left. Only Ned sat very still with his eyes fixed on that solitary little figure on the yellow sand, with the long brown hair failing about its shon.iders and its head buried in its lap. Ned thotight thati if he bad a little sister like that he would not I treat her as Walter and Katie did theirs. He. was quite angry with Katie for canting, and reflected that all the grown people in the house were gone for a drive, and that there were only one or two nurses and blades Ieft to be company for little Madge. Of course it Wae no business of his. He wasn't responsible for other people'e sisters, and yet it would. be lonely for the poor little thing. For his part - he didn't tie& why someone hadn't stayed behind with her. Girls Were _art awfully selfish set. Why, it wcatld spoil his pleasure for the whole afternoon to think of how she bad oried when Welter said she couldn't go. He turned the subject over and. over in his mind while Retie began her' fairy story, and at last they neared a long spur of rock that stretched ont from shore, almost half way to the Point, be suddenly spoke on b. "See here, Bert. I've got to go back. Th,ere's something I went to see to on shore. Let me off here, will you, and I will walk back along the beach."' - There was a, general outcry of sur- prise. Ned was a. favorite with every- one, and no party was complete with- - out bire. Why, what on earth—" cried Bert, reating ou hie oar in araa.zement. What's gat inta you, Ned Hart ?" "No matter," said Ned shortly. " not goiug, thet'e all." "Why, I think it is too bad," said DaSsy. What are you going to do, I'd like to know ?" " It doesn't concern yon," answered Ned, still more impatiently "I've got something to see to, I say. Here, Dick, back water, can't you, and bring the dory round, so I can get out. Katie, you came and take my oar. No,I sha'n't go, so you needn't tease. Just -let me Off and let me alone." Ned was decidedly cross as he 'stepped on the first rocks. He knew perfectly well that he was not the one to give up his fun for the sake of a silly ory- beby of nine years old, but where was the use of going on if all the pleasure was spoiled already He went spring- ing on, from rock to rock with an impa- tient sense of injury. He had no idea ci letting Madge know that he had CO/DO hack oe her account,but he would let her stay with him till the rest came beet at any rate. It wasn't long before he met her wandering forlornly along the each, vtith, red rims about her eyes and a general artnearance of depression,. which restored Ned's good humor ire... medtately. e Meanie I" he said, enjoying her surprise at eight of him. " Why, where did you COMO from ?" she cried, stopping short and regarding him with aatonishment. They let me oft up a,bovethere," re- plied Ned, looking down at her with his hands in his pocket. " I thought I'd rather tale the ra.ft and go up the creek & way, 'a place I know that's full of red lilies and raspberries and things." "Oh,' said Madge, relapsing into melencholy, Thenaft was the property of the boys, and none of the girls bad eveaaccompanied them on those delight- ful] journeys up the creak. You can go with ree,if you want to," said Ned, condeecendingly. " I don't mind talemg you, as lone as the others aren't here, if you'll sit :till and do just what I'll tell you." Oh, I will! I will 1" cried Madge, elepping her hands with delight. " OL, /fed, you're the beat boy I Do let us khrry. I want to nee the red lilies so made it It was only a short walk to the reoutle of the salt creek that moved down to the sea through the fields of the farna where the children were spending their holidays. They reached the pl oe in high spirits, Madge dancing wit joy, and Ned. already making . up his mind that his small sacrifice was go ng to • pay," Now you sit still as a stone,' said t the boy, lifting his companion, into the middle of the raft." I'll poleand you can be passenger—or no," he oonCnued with a burst of benevolence, " Ideolare, , I've a great mind to let you pole too. I Here, catch hold of this one and stand n- just here by rne, and now push. If you is do pitoh in I can pull you right ont, as o you needn't be afraid. Now, off we d, go. d thiuk Madge has never known a o more delghtful hour than that in which n she and Ned went up the creek tog ther t for the first time, winding arnon the e hayfields and Orchards, now catchi g at y the low hanging branch of a thii ble- o berry bush and staining their fi gers I with the sweetberries warmed th ough t with the Jelly Bun; now watchin the y shine of the sea through the bushe ,end again corning out into an open pace t where they could see the whole s eep t of the beach with Point Lyle sta ding e bold and rugged beyond the level ✓ sands. As for " pitching in," that for contingency did actually occur, Medge received an involuntary due frem which she was promptly re b- her boy protector and placed pion the raft again, with the in tion to " squeeze it out and never. for salt -water doesn't give.cold." And at last they reached the where the red lilies grew, thousan them', all. swaying and bowing to other like so many queens in gor scarlet robes. There was a little th of bushes all about the field, like a for this royal presence room, over bead the sky was clear bine, and red butterflies were dancing high in the air, as if some of the flies had taken wing and flown away t see yvhat lay outside of their quiet g een court. Madge plunged into the lilies wi h a shriek of delight, while Ned dev ted himself to thillIbleberrien and retie ted that little girls were pretty good. c na- pany and that he was glad he had 011,8 baCk to see Walter's little sister. So the long bright afternoon ore away while the two told stories, pi:d " tag," and gathered flowers, until t lest the sun began to sink and t y went down the creek again. Ma ge, with her areas full of flaming lilies,' ad Ned singing to a queer wild tune a he poled the raft: "1 thought I heard an old man say, Aye, oh! you rolling river, To -morrow is our sailing day, Ave, oh 1 we're bound away, IT -pore the wild, Missouri." - "I'm glad I came back," he said ore nclentially, as they walked up to the house. " You're a jolly little thing, nd I like you, and I'll row you over to the Points myself tonnorroyv, if ,yon w tit to go. I think it was real mean to make yon stay helne." " Ned,"saidtladge,standing still in he peth, "did you come back on purpo you're the verykindestboy I e saw, and I do thank you so much !" And then Walter and Kete came down from the -house with somew at conscience stricken faces, and burde ed Madge with gifts of shells and sto ela from the Point, and were particul rly affectionate to her all the evening. Madge used to wonder why that ne golden afternoon always stood out m st Clearly and brightly among her confa ed pleasant memories of that summer by the sea shore. It was some time bef she was old enough to understand h winding water, and level fields, nd scarlet lilies were glorified for her by the gentle deed of the boy. who was t ue knight enough to turn back from an afternoon's fun to find a rare pleas re in giving delight to a lonely child. 11 a aeen and cued nue- ind, deld • s of soh ens oket all and eep • et - l• 41. • • • The Resurrectionist's Frig t George Mackaskill lived in a sm 11 cottage adjoining the parish burying ground.

Renwick, fort eat, was the boy's name, often got i • to, scrapes for which he abways got punizhe ed by his father when on his way to bed. On one occasion he used a s pence of his mother's without her mei- sant. This Renwick knew to be a gra e offence, and went upstairs ere is father, who was late, came home. F ar prevented him falling asleep till le should know the -upshot of his criiie. The sound of his father's foot on t e stair was OrAlDiOUS in Renwick's ea, and so he quickly jumped up, hid he - hind the door,and when his father went forward to the bed, he rush d down steirs,and away out to the chure h- yardewfth nothing on but his nig t- dresie There he hid beneath a -ta,b e - like gravestone).

Renwitk heard this, and seeing an .easy way -o t of the scrape, he jumped from unthr- neath the stone, and exclaimed, " I 11 hold your horse for a saxpence." T e suddenness and whiteness of the appa - ition startled them, and at °nee th t y threw down their spades and pick, a d were soon galloping away at sixte:n miles an -hour.
