BY RUTH M’ENERY STUART, ‘ext, str, E stopped my horse, an’ called him up an’ talk to him. an’ tried to draw

him out—ast the way he done, an’ how he knowed what was comin’, but, sir, I couldn't get no sat- isfaction out o’ him~—nota bit. He ’lowed thet he only spoke ez it was given him to speak, an’ the only thing he seemed intet

stranger's name, an’ he ast me to say it for him over an’ over— he repeatiw’ it afterme. An’ then he ast me to write it for him, an’ he put the paper I wrote it on in his hat. He didn’t know B from a bull's foot, but ['s’pose he thought maybeifhe put it in his hat it might strike in.”’

“Like ez not he ‘lowed he could git some- body to read it out to him,” suggested the doctor. | “Like ez not. Well, sir, after I had give him the paper he commenced to talk about huntin’—had a bunci o’ birds in his hands then, an’ give ’em to me, ‘lowin’ all the time he hadn’t had much luck lately, ; ‘count 0’ his pistol bein’ sort o’ out o’ order. ‘Lowed thet he took sech a notion to hunt with his pistol thet twasn’t no fun shootin’ at long range, but somehow be couldn’t depend on his pistol shootin’ straight.

“Took it out o’ his pocket while he was standin’ there, an’ commenced showin! jt to me. An’, sir, would you believe it? While we was standin’ there talkin’ he give a quick turn, fired all on a sudden up intoa tree, an’ befo’ I could git my breath, down dropped a squir’l right at his feet, Never see sech shootin’ in my life.

was stormy, the roads were heavy ana most of the wagons without cover, but the festive spirit is impervious to weather the world over, and there were umbrellas in Simpkinsville, and overcoats and “tar- paulins.”

Everybody went. Even certain persons who had not previously been able to master their personal animosities suf- ficiently to resolve to present themselves for the midnight handshaking, and had decided to nurse their grievances for an- other year, promptly decided to bury their little hatchets, and join the party.

To storm a citadel of sorrow whether the issue should prove a victory for besiegers

“} AIN’S NEVER FIRED HER BUT ONCT.”’ or besieged, was no slight lire to a peaple whose excitements were few, and whose interests were limited to the personal happenings of their small community.

sir, would you believe it? No livin’ soul

has ever laid eyes on ol’ Prophet from that

day to this,

“I'm mighty feered he’s wandered way off som’ers an’ shot hisself accidentally an’ never was found. Them revolvers is mighty resxy weepons ef a person ain’t got experience with ‘em.

“So that's all the story, patson. Three days after May Day went he disappeared, an’ of co’se he’s livin’ along at Merediths all these years, an’ being so tached to May Day, and prophesying about her like he done, you can see how one name brings up another. So when I think about one ] seem to see the other.”’

“Didn't Harry Conway say he see the ol’ man in St. Louis onc’t an’ thet he let on he didn’t know him—wouldn’t answer when he called him Proph?” said old man Conway.

“One o’ Harry’s cock an’ bull stories,” answered McMonigle. “He might o’ saw some ol’ nigger o’ Proph’s build, but how would that old nigger git there?—any- body's common sense would tell him bet- ter’n that. No, he’s dead—no doubt about that.”

“I suppose no one has ever looked for the old man?” the parson asked.

“Oh, yas, he’s beensearched for. We've got up two parties an’ rode out clair into the swamp lands twic’t—but there wasn’t no sign of him.

“But May Day—nobody has ever went after her, of co'se. She left purty well escorted an’ ef her own folks never follered her, "twasn’t nobody else’s business, Her mother ain’t never mentioned her name sense she left—to nobody.”

“Yas,’’ interrupted the doctor, “an’ some has accused her o' hardheartedness, but when I see a woman’s head turn from black to white in three months’ time, like hers done, I don’t say her heart’s hard, I say it’s broke.

INTO WHICH

but Ican’t do her no good. She’s failed tur’ble last six months.

“Ef somethin’ could jest come upon her sudden to rouse her up—ef the house would burn down an’ she have to go out *mongst other folks—or ef they was some way to git folks there, whether she wanted them or not—

“Tell the truth, I been a-thinkin’ about somethin’. It’s béen on my mind all day. I don’t know ez it would do, but J been a-thinkin’ ef I could get Meredith’s con- sent for the Simpkinsville folks to come out in a body—

“Ef he'd allow it, an’ the folks woulgl be willin’ to go out there to-night for the old year party—take their fiddle an’ cakes an’ things along, an’ surprise her—she’d be obliged to be polite to ’em: she couldn't refuse to meet all her friends for the mid- night handshakin’, an’ it might be the savin’ o’ her. Three years has passed. There’s no reason why one trouble should bring another. We've all had our share 0’ trials this year, an’ I reckon everyone o’ us here has paid for a tombstone in three years, an’ I believe ef we'd all meet to- gether an’ goina body out there—

“Ef you say so, I'll ride out an’ talk it over with Meredith. What's your opin- ion, parson?”

“My folks will join you heartily, I'm sure,’’ replied the parson, warmly. “They did expect to have the crowd over at Brad- field’s to-night, but I know they'll be ready to give in to the Meredith’s.””

And this is how it came about that the Merediths’ house, closed for three years, opened its doors again.

If innocent curiosity and love of fun had carried many to the New Year handshak- ing three years before, a more serions interest, not unmixed with curiosity still, swelled the party to-night.

It wasa mile out of town.

The night

“They keep a-sendin’ for me to see her, :

Some Sudd

to excuse oneself from a guest. ‘To deny a full and cordial reception to all the town would be to ostracise oneself forever, not ouly from its society but from all its sympathjes.

The weak-hearted hostess rallied all her failing energies for the emergency. And there was no lack of frendliness in her pale old face as she greeted her most un- welcome guests with extended hands

If her thin cheeke flushed faintly as hey neighbors’ happy daughters passed before her in game or dance, her solicitous ob- servers, not suspecting the pain at her heart, whispered: ‘Mis’ Meredith is chirp- in’ up a‘ready. She looks a heap better ’n wheu we come in.”’ ‘So little did they un- derstand,

If mirth and numbers he a test, the old year party at the Merediths' was assuredly @ success.

Human emotions swing as pendulums from tears to laughter. Those of the guests to-night who had declared that they knew they would burst out crying as soon as they entered that house, were the ones who laughed the loudest.

“Spinning the plate,” ‘“dumb-crambo ” “pillow,” how, when and where,” such were the innocent games that 6om posed the simple diversions of the evening, var- ied by music by the village string band and occasional songs from the girls, all to end with a “Virginia break-down” just before twelve o'clock, when the handshaking fun should commence.

It seemed a very merry party and yet, in speaking of. it #fterward, there were many who declared that it was the sad- dest evening they had ever spent in their lives. Some even affirming that they had been “obliged to set up an’ giggle the live- long time to keep from cryin’ every time they looked at Mis’ Meredith.”

Whether this were true, or only seemed to be true in the light of subsequent events, it would be hard to say. Certain it was, however, shat the note that rose above the storm and floated out the light- ed windows was a note of joyous merry- making. Such was the note that greeted acertain slowly moving wagon, whose heavily-clogged wheels turned into the Merediths’ gate near midnight. The be- lated gnest was evidently one entirely familiar with the premises, for, notwith- standing the darknegs of the night, the ponderous wheels turned accurately into the curve beyond the magnolia tree. mov- ed slowly but surely along the drive up to the door, and stopped with hesftation ex- actly opposite the “landing,” well-nigh in- visible to-night.

After the ending of the final dance, dur- ing the very last moments of the closing year, there was always at the old year party an interval of silence.

The old men held their watches in their hands, and the young people spoke in whispers.

It was this last waiting interval that in years passed the old man Prophet had filled with portent, even though, until his last prophecy, his words had been lightly spoken.

As the crowd sat waiting to-night, watching the hands of the old clock that seemed almost to have stopped, so slow was their movement, listening to the never

hurrying tick-tack of the long pendulum against the wall. itis prebable that mem- ery, quickened by circumstances and en- viroument, Supplied to every mind present & picture of the old man,as he had often stood before them.

A careful turn of the front door latch, so slight a click as to be scarcely discernible, came at this moment, as the clank of a sledge-hammer, turaing all heads with a common impulse towards the slowly open- ing door, into which limped a tall, muffled figure, that seemed to the startled eyes of the company to reach quite to the ceiling. Those sitting near the door started back in terror at the apparition, and all were on their feet in a moment,

But having entered, the figure stood still just within the door. And before thera was time for action or question, even, a bundle of old wraps had fallen and the old man Prophet, bearing in his arms a golden-haired cherub of about two rears, stood in the presence of the company.

The revulsion of feeling, indescribable by words, were quickly told by fast-flow- Ing tears. Looking upon the old man and the little child, everyone present read a new chapter in the home tragedy,and wept in its presence,

Coming from the dark nightinto the light, thegjd man could not for a moment discern the faces he knew, and when the little @ne, shrinking from the glare, hid her fage tp his kuir, it was as if time had turned baeX, so perfect a restoration was the picture ofa familiar one of the old days. No word had yet been spoken, and the ticking of the great clock and the crackling fire mingled with sobs were the only sounds that broke the stillness, when the old man, having gotten his bearings, walked directly up to old Mrs. Meridith and laid the child in ber arms. Then, los- ing no time but, pointing to the clock that was slowly nearing the hour, he said, in a Voice tremulous with emotion: “De time is most here. Is you all ready to shek hands?

As he spoke, he turned back to the stil] open door, and before. those who had fol- lowed had taken in his full meaning, he had drawn into the room a slinA, shrinking figure, and little May Day Meredith, pale, frightened and weather-beaten, stood be- fore them.

If it was her own father who was first to grasp her hand, and if he carried her in his arms to her mother, it was that the rest deferred to his first claim, and that their hearty and affectionate greetings came later in their proper order. The striking of the great clock now, mingled with the sound of joy and of weeping—the congratulations, handshaking and words of praise fervently uttered—made a scene ever to be held dear in the annals of Simpkinsville. A scene beyond words of description—a family meeting which even lifetime friends recognized as too sacred for their eyes and hurried, weeping, away.

It was when the memorable, sad, joyous party was over, and all the guests were departing, that Prophet, following old man MeMonigle out, called him aside foy amoment. Then putting into his hands a small object, he said in a tremulous volce; ,

"Much obliged for de loan o'de pistol, Marse Dan'l, Iold her keerful, caze she’s loaded des de way you loaded her—~all ‘cept one barrel, lain’t never fired her but onc't.”
