I'll never outlive it, or get rid of it, an' I'll never ask any woman to ehare it. I couldn't.' . Her phy ical infirmity held hersilent. She would be a care and a burden to him rathe than a help.

The frost -hound earth sent p faint scents and sounds of spring in fresh -plowed fields and Eilvel ling Ileds. 'Zek'l wandered about his fields in idleness, striving to make up his mind to go away.

He Iaid the instrument across , his xnees and leaned his head upon it. The can- dle burned dimly, and a bat flew in through the open door, circled around the room at last extinguishing'the -feeble light with one of its -outspread Wings. But the unhappy man did not heed the gloom. Why should he care to have a light for hs eyes when his soul Was in such darkness ? He groped his wayto the bed, and fell down upon it. I-tover came back from a nightly prowl, barked 1 to let him now of; his presenceS then f lay down on the doorstep. The sound of music vibrated through the air, and 'Zeki'l remembered that the young people of the settlement were to have a ' singing ' at his brother's! that I evening. He raised his head and lis- tened. They were singing hymn$ and many of tbern were associated ; with recollections of his own youth. A line of Tom Moore's 'Come, ye disconselate,' once a special favorite when sOrrow seemed far from him, was borne 41 his ears: i " Earth has no sorrow that heaven eannot heal.' ! He lay down and slept. 1 At dusk the next evening, as he was heating a piece of iron in the blacksmith shop, a man stopped at the wide, I open I 1 door. 'Will y1ou give me a night's 1o4in&? I have walked far to -day, and Ft. m a stranger in this part of the country.' 'Zeki'l wheeled, the , light from the forge shining across 1118 face. It brought out the stranger's form and faoe in] bold I relief also. i ' Why. it's Zeke Morgan,' 1 he el ried, walking into the shop. , ' Yes; I thought I recognised your voice, Miller,' said 'Zeki'l, slowly, and without much pleasure at the reeogni- tion. They had been in prison together, and 'Zeki'l had,left Miller there. He had Dever felt any liking for the man and lees now than ever, as he looked at I -is ragged clothing and dissi- pated face. He had evidently 'aeen - steadily einleing in vice' and its repul- siveness was impressedupon hiS out- ward being. But a certaiia pity stirred "ZekiTs heart. He remembered his own friendlessness when he entered the set- tlement. Could he show leas mercy than had been shown to him? ' 'Sit down, won't you?' he said; kind- ly, blo wing! up the coals in the forige to a glowing heat. , 'That I Will. I'm footsore, and, hun- gry as a bear. I'm in luck to meet with you, comrade,' chuckliog, 'Where ere you going ?' he inquired. ' Oh, nowhere in particular. I'm just out,' ' Why, Iithought your time would be up in two months after I left.' Miller shrugged his shoulders. Yes; i but I made so many attempts to escape that they kept adding extra time to my term.' He sat down while 'Zeki'l finished his work. 'Yids aeern to be getting on pretty welq' he continued, his restless eyes scanning the surroundings. ' Only tolerable.' Two or three of the neighbors dropped in; one to leave a broken plow, another to tell a bit of gossip.
