Wednesday. Oct. 9th 1889
"Oh, you are so titnid i" he said,
by way of excueing himself. "Miss
Stewart is afraid of nothing ; there
is some chance of teaching her how
to manage a horse," and then he
went off to play tennis.
George and Leo had formed a
court in front of the house, aid Leo
had sent to Brisbane for an outfit.
If it had not been for tennis, I
should never have seen my brother;
all this time would have been de-
voted to teacHug Amy to ride.
I could not help thinking about
the letter to Dolly Devay, which
Leo seemed to have forgotten alto-
gether. When I reminded him of
it once, he laughed and said :
"It is too absurd to think about ;
I must boeu driven out of my wits
by my bachelor Iron blas. Dotty
will box my ears for it, if I ever go
to old England and Bloxhorne
again'"
"And Ion's you want Dolly 1'I
asked innocently,
"No; I've changed any mind," he
replied, and went away whistling
as though anxious to end the con-
versation.
1 knew very well what that meant,
and could uot help wishing that he
was uot so positive about Dolly's re -
refusal. I longed for a letter from
England iu reply ; that would clear
away my lingering uneasiness.
Meanwhile, Leo seemed to be
living at our terra. I do not know
how the aline got on—he did not
not seen to care; I suppose his house
at Wymaring was lonely now that
Mike was gone. Amy might have
boen practicing for a circus, ao fre-
quently and lengthened were her
lessons.
One evening matters reached a cli-
max. George had ridden over to
Cauning, and had not returned
when Leo came iu. He asked at
once where Atny was; and, when I
told him she was out in the garden,
he put on his hat again and turned
toe'go, then came back, as if urged
by a sudden impulse, and kissed
me.
"Wish me luck, little sister?" he
said. I ala going to ask Arny to be
my wife."
The next moment he was gond.
"Dolly Devay may write `yes' or
'No'—it makes no difference now,"
I said to myself, with a feeling of
relief, and I went on musing and
thinking about hien till the sound
of a horse's hoofs outside roused
me.
Thinking it was George, I ran out
at once, and found the postman in
front of the house, with a letter for
George from England.
"I have one for your brother,too,"
said the man. "They told me at
Vywaeing CIat ho was here, so I
thought I might as well bring it on.
Some people are in such. a hurry for
a bit of news from the old country."'
I thanked him, and, taking the
letter, glanced at the address; it was
written in a woman's hand, and 1
felt certain it was the reply I had
been expecting so anxiously. What
would happen if Leo received two
promises on the same day
I decided at once that he ought
at least to read this letter before he
said anything to Amy, so I blew as
loudly as I could a whistle George
had given me to call him with—I
could never manage tho Australian
"c000y,"
Leo came almost directly—he
could nut have been far away.
"'Phis is too bad, Mary V' he said
"I ehonld not have come but 1
thought you must be attacked by
bushrangers or have set the house
on fire. You have just spoilt it."
I did not answer him, but put the
letter into his hand. He tore open
the envelope, unfolded the paper
inside, and glanced down it, his
face flushed crimson and then turn-
ing, deadly pale as he did so.
"Good heavens !" he gasped;
"Dolly is on her way out to marry
me ? Oh, Mary, what can I do ?"
What have you said to Amy ?" I
asked,
"Nothing. I was just about to
ask her to be my wife, when I heard
your whistle, and I carne at once. I
was Rur'e something meet have hap
poned ; but oh, Mary, I did not ex-
pect this. "What a fool I have boon
to think I could never love a girl
snore than I did Dolly Devay ! Love!
I did not know what love was !"
and he began pacing to and fro ex-
citedly.
x-citedly.
I could sec Arny conning towards
the house to learn what was the
matter, and motioned to her to keep
away. She evidently thought we
worn discussing a secret, as indeed
we were, for she laughed and 'turn-
ed back.
"May I read the letter?" 1 asked.
Leo was holding it crumpled up
in his clenched haul], halt gave it
to me at once.
it was a sweet little letter. Dolly
bad always loved him, she said, ever
since she bad known him ; but,
when he left E,nglana without.
speaking, she was afraid his feeling
towards her was only ono of Wm:A-
ship ; she did loot kn"ow hots .ugly
he had determiued•to make a home
before asking her to be his •wife ;
and so on=very prettily put in
deed. Dolly concluded by Baying
that she would arrive at Brisbane
about a week after her letter.
" There is only ono thing you
can do, Leo," I said.
" Yes, I know that," he answered,
quite calmly, " and I will do it.
But, oh, Mary, it is hard ,judgment
ou my madness ! Good bye!' and,
taking up hie hat, he went out to
saddle his horse, and in a •few
minutes was galloping towards
Wymaring without having bidden
Amy farewell.
The poor girl, wheu--ehe came in
a Hale later, seemed much surpris-
ed to hear that he was gone ; but
she was more surprised when four
days went by and Leo neither came
nor sent any message. She per-
suaded George to ride over anti see
if he was ill. Leo sent back that
he was quite well, but very busy,
and was just starting for Brisbane ;
he also forwarded me a note at the
same time, in which he said :—
DEAR MARY. -1 have not asked
you to accompany roe, as I want
you to stay and prepare Amy for
the news, I am afraid she loves
me. Try to break it to her gently
for the sake of your broken-hearted
brother. Leo.
That did not read well for a
bridegroom going to inlet his bride,
I thought, as I burnt the note.
There was not much doubt about
Amy's love. The little artifices
with which she would lead me to
talk of Leo wore charming and
he trt•rending. I felt that I neve,
could tell her that my beothcr would
come back front Brisbane a married
man, '
I warded off the evil moment as
long as I could. Three days went
by, and then I dared linger no
longer I did not .know how soon
Leo might return ; and, if Arny
were not told, I felt that his coming
back with his bride might kill her.
On the evening of the third day I
asked her to come for a stroll with
me along the bridlepath where we
had first met, so long ago, it seethed
now. We walked along in sileuce,
for I wee wondering how to begin
my story ; and Aniy roust have
been thinking of Leo, for when she
spoke it was about him.
" What was it you were talking
about," she asked, "on the evening
just before Leo went away so sud•
donly 1"
" It was a letter he had received
from England," I answered, anti
then, paused. Oh, what a taskleo
had given me ! How could I per-
form 111 " That is what has taken
hint to Brisbane," I went on,
wondering what I should say next.
" The letter was sent by a young
lady whotn we usedto know in
England."
I glanced at, Amy's face to sou
how I was getting on, but she was,
not listening to what I said.
" Hark !" she exclairned, sudden-
ly standing still ; " there is a horse
galloping home ! Perhaps it is
your brother."
We were almost exactly at the
same spot where Leo had heard her
horse on the day we first saw her.
The scene was strangely similar,
though this time it was Amy who
was with me. We both strained
our ears to catch the sound.
" cannot be Leo," I said ; "he
will not come on here."
But the next moment Leo him-
self ali;ti• trod, galloping towards us
to dl••. eve my statement. He
sprang It, to his horse and greeted
us quite ' uthusiastically,.evidently,
in radian( spirits. I wondered what
could h .va happened. •As long as
Amy w,t, with us my anxious curios-
ity could not be satisfied.. I was in a
fever of impatience as we walked up
to the house together, Loo leading
his horse.
As soon as we were indoors and
he had gone to his room to change
his dress after the journey, I hurri-
ed after hits and knocked at his
door.
" Come in !" he said, cheerily.
" What has happened ?" I inquir-
ed, when I had shut the door be-
hind me. Hasn't she come ?"
"Oh, yes—she came all right!"
" Leo, is elle dead ?"
" Oh,. no," he answered ; not so
bad as that ! She is only married?"
" Married ?"
" Yes ; are captain fell in love
With her on tho way out. Now I
remember, she al ways was n flirt."
" And pray what did she say to
you?"•
" Oh, she was very frightened,
and did not avant to see the , but I
promised to forgive her if she would
vow never 'to tell anybody about
my letter."
This promise Dolly Devay kept ;
so Amy never know what had in-
totrupted Leo's first proposal Id her
till long after their marriage, when
she heard the, whole story' from his
own lips.
AUNT ',PRETTY DESCRIBES
THE KNAPI'SE$ QF
CUSCOB.
All the Kuappses set ev'lything
by butteruegs. Ye pan's be, a
Kuapp—course I iueau our branch
o' the fam'ly—ye can't be one o'
our Knappses au' not have that
plant with its yeller blooms an'
little, narrer, whity•green leaves
for yer fav'rite: The Knappees
allers held it so, au' they allers will
hold it so, or they won't be
Knappses.
I do not remember just how Jane
evaded this direct question, but her
reply served the desired purpose,
..,.lea- ._tin,..,.,n.0 ...a ....t. rr{CIi....,AW.9 ;L.•.J
and Aunt Loretty was soon started
upon her wonderful story,
"My father was Capin Zenas
Kuapp, born right here in Coscob.
He follered the sea; an's there
waru't touch sea 'round here to
fuller, ho moved down Stoniu'tou
way, au' took ter whaliu'. An'
bimeby he married a gal down
there, S'liny Ann Beebe, an' ho
lost sight aurun o' Coscob ail' the
Knappses for a lung spell. But pa
was a Knapp clear through 'f there
ever was one ; the very-•Knappiest
Kuapp, satospeak, o' the hull tribe,
an' that's puttin' it strong 'nough.
All their ways, all their doin'a,
their likin's an' dislikiu'e, their
taketos an' their4l•on't•taketoe, their
goods au' their bads—he had 'em
all hard. An' they had ways, the
Knappses had, an' they've got 'em
still, what's left o' the firmly, the
waysiest ways ! Some folks ain't
that kind, ye know ; they're jest
like ether folks. if ye met 'ern
'way from hula ye wouldn't know
where they Conte from or whose
relations they was ; they might. be
Peckees o' Horseneck. or Noyeses o''
Weeny, or Simsb'ry Phelpses ; or
ag'iu they might be Smithses o' ary
place, for all the family ways they'd
got. But our'folks, the hull tribe
00 'em, was tarred with the same
stick, 's ye plight say ; ye'd 'a'
knowed 'eui for Knappses whore -
ever they was—in Coscob, Stoniu'-
ton, or Chiny. Frinstauce, for one
thing, they was all Congr'ation'l in
religion ; they allers had bon from
the creation o' the airth, Some
folks alight say `to that that there
wa'n't no Conga'atiou'l neetin's is
fur back's that. Well, I won't be
too sot ; mebbe thorn wa'n't but 't'
that's so, then there wa'n't uo
Knappses ; there couldn't be
Knappses an' no Congr'ation'liste.
An' they all b'leeved in foreord'na-
tion an' 'lection. They ,was made
so. 'Ye didn't have to tarn it to
'em ; they got it, jeat 'a they
got', teeth when 't was time;
'they took it jest is they took
hoopiu'-cough .an' mumps when
they was round. They 'didn't, ary
one:On 'em, need the cat'chism to
tarn "em 'bout 'Whereby for 's own
glory He hath foreordained whats'-
ever comes to pass,' nor to tell 'em
't 'He out o' Itis mere good pleas-
ure from all eternity 'lected sotne
to everlastin' life ;' they knowed it
theirselves, the Knappees did. An'
they stuck ter their b'leefs, and
would 'a' stood up on the Saybrook
platform an' ben burnt up for 'ern,
like John Rogers in the cat'chistn,
sayin',
'What though this carcass smart awhile,
What though this life decay.'
"An' they was all Whigs in
politics. Thele wa'n't novel' a
Knapp—our branch—who voted
the Dem'cratic ticket. They took
that loo ; no need for their pas to
tell 'em ; jest '8 soon 's a boy got to
be twonty-one, an"lection day come
'round, up he went and voted the
Whig tick't, sayin' nothin' to
nobody. Au' so 'twas in ov'ry-
thing. They had ways o' their own.
It conic iu ev'n down to readin' the
Scripters. For ev'ry Knapp 't
over I see p'ferred the Book o'
Rev'lationa to ary other part o' the
Bible. They liked it all, o' course,
for they was a pious breed, au'
knowed 't all Scriptoria give by
inspiration, an's pr'of't'ble, an' so
forth ; but for stiddy, ev'ry-day
readin' give 'out Rov'lations. An'
there was lots o' other little ways
they had, too, such as strong opp'si-
Lion to Baptists, an' dreffle dielikin'•
to • furr'ners, and the greatest
app'tito for old-fashioned, hum-
medo, white oak cheese. Then they
was all 'posed to swearin', an'
didn't never use perfane language,
none o' the Knappses ; but there
was jest one sayin' they had when
'xcited or s'prised or anything, an'
that was,'C'rinthiansl' They would
say that, all on 'em, 'fore they died,
one time or t'other. An' whey a
Knapp said.it, it did sound like the
awf'lest kind o' perfan'ty ; but o'
course it wa'n't. An' 'fore an'
over all, ev'ry" born soul on 'em
took ter flowers an' gard'ns. They
would have 'cm wherever they was.
An' ev'rything they touched growed
an' thriv' ; drotitis didn't dry 'em,
wet didn't mould 'epi, bugs didn't
eat 'Gin ; they come up and leafed
out an' budded au' blowed for the
poorest, needin'est Knapp 't lived,
with only the teentiest bit of a back
yard for 'em to grow in, or brok'n
teapots an' crackt .pitchers to bold
'em. But they might have all the
finest posies in tho land, roses an'
heelyertropes an' verbony, an'
horseshoe g'raniums, an' they'd
swop 'CM all off, my Knapp world
—oar branch --for ono single plant
o' that blessed flower. How 't
come about 's men I can say, or
how Long ilii' hen goiu' ou ; from
the very fuel, start •u' thiuge forting ;
but 'tennerate ev'ry single Kuapp 1
ever see or heaard on held butter-
neggs to, be, the beautif lest posy
God ever'inade.
"I can't go myself in my rec'1.-c-
tion back o' rlty great-grau'motlier,
but I r'nember her, though I was a
speck .of a gal when she died. She
was a Bissell o' Nor'field, dile
State, but she married a Knapp, an'
seemed to grow right inter Knapp
ways ; au' she an' grau't'ther—
great•gran'f'iher I wan, Shearjas-
hub Knot p —they used ter have a
big bed o' butternegs in front o'
the side door, an' it made the hull
yard look sunshiny even when the
day was dark an' drizzly. There
ain't nothin' shinin'er an' goldier
than thein flowers with the different
kinds u' yeller in rent ; they'll most
freckle ye, they're so much like the
sun shiniu'. Then the next gen'ra-
tion come Gran'pa Knapp—his
given name was Ezry—and he was
bedrid• for woro'n six year. Au'
be had butterueggs planted in boxes
an' stood all 'round his bed, au' ho
did take such comf't in 'am. The
hull room was yeller with 'em, an'
they gave hilt a sort o' bilionsy,
jauderey look ; but he did set so
'eni ; an' the very last growin'
thing the good old man ever set
eyei+ on here blow, afore he tree the
green fields beyond the swellin'
Hood, was them bright an' shiuin'
butterueggs. An' his sister Hopey,
she 't married Enoch Ambler o'
Greens Farris, I uever shall forgit
her butterueggs border, 't run all
'round her gard'n ; the pea-green
leaves au' yeller an' salfrony blooms
looked for all the world like, oiled
sparrergrars with chopped -egg
sarce
"There's ,jest nue thing more 1
must put in, ant' that's how the
Knappses gou'lly died. 'Twas
eeuamost allers o' dum'aigger. That's
what they called it theta days ; I
s'pose 'twould be inalairy now;
but thatwe'u't invented then, •an'
wo had to git along is well 's we
could without sech lux'ries. The
Kappses was long-lived—called
threescore 'n ten bein' cut off in the
midst o' your days—but when they
did cone ter die 'twas most gou'lly
o' dum'aigger. But even bout that
they had their own ways; au' when
a Knapp—our branch I would say—
got dum'aigger, why, 'twits dummer
an' aiggerer'n other folkses dum'-
aigger, an' so 't got the name o' the
Knapp•sirakes. An' they all seem-
ed to use the same rem'dies an'
physics fur the .c'mplaint. They
wa'n't much , for doctors, but they
all b'leeved in yarbs au' hum•mado
steeper an' teas. An' 'thous any
'dvice or doctor's receipts or any-
thing 's soon 's they felt the creepy,
goose-fleshv, shiv'ry feelin' that
meant dum'aigger, with their heads
het up an' their feet 'most froze,
they'd jest put sono cain'mile
an' hardback to steep, an' sew a
strip o' red flann'l round their neck,
au' put a peppergrass poultice to
the soles u' their feet, an' go to bed;
an' there they'd lay, driukiu' their
carn'milo au' hardhack, strong au'
hot, an' allers with their head on a
hard, thin pilfer, till all was over,
an' they was in a land where there's
no dum'aigger nor any kinder sick-
ness 't alt. Gran'Cther died o'
dum'aigger ; great - gran'f'ther
died on it—had it six year ;
Aunt Ilopey Ambler, great
aunt Cynthy, • an' second-cous'n
Shadrach all went off that way.
An' pa—well, he didn't do so ; but
that's part o' my sister's story.
" 11 t, site was a Bcebe,'s I said
afore, but she might 'a'bon-' • most
anything else, for there wa'n't any
strong Beobo ways to her. Her
mother was a Palmer—'most Wry -
body's mother is, down Stouin'ton
way, ye know—au' ala was's much
Palmer 's Belibe, au' she was more
Thayer than ary one ou'eln (her
gran'mother ivas a Thayer). So 't
stands to r•eas'y that when we
child'en come 'long we was more
Knapp than Beebe. There was two
on Us, twins an' gals, me an' my
sister ; au' thoy.uaned us arter pa's
twin sisters 't died years afore,
Coretty an Loretty, an, I'm Loretty.
