el the man’s uncertain signature. And these were the words it bore:

“I, the undersigned, Benjamin Territ, miner, living in Abbotsmoor, and being dangerously ill, yet, nevertheless, pos- sessing all my intellectual faculties, and finding that I am soon about ito appear before the judgment-seat of God, wish to uppease the remorse of my consci- ence, and to do an act of justice, by re- tracting all I said upon oath against Ga- briel Myddelton, in my deposition made

t dint to his being the mur-

er of his uncle, Squire Gabriel Myd-

of Abbotsmoor. I declare before that that deposition was not true, that I retract it with all my soul, re God and before justice, and im- plore the Sovereign Judge,in Hig mercy, to accept this retraction as being the whole truth.

“This, as well as the following c%n- fession, is written by another hand, va t of my inability te write, from received in the mine; but it by me in my cottage at Ab- on this fifth day of Decem- thousand eight hundred and

ry, as

accoun accidents is signed botsmoor, ber, sixty-four.

“On the seventh day of March, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-one, young Mr. Myddelton told me of the quarrel he had had with his uncle, and his uncle had made a will which disinherited him. He often came to my cottage, partly because he could nev- er bear solitude, and my company was as pleasant, perhaps, as that of any of the farmers or cottagers upon the dis- and partly because I encour- could turn to

one

how

mal estate; aged him, hoping that I account interest he took in my daughter Margaret. She was a hand- some girl, far above other girls on the estate, and to the Manor there never cume a young girl-face at all. If Ga- briel Myddeltom would marry Margaret, I thought,I would even promise to leave the neighborhood, for I knew the young squire (easy-going as he might be) would a miner as his be free to go

not care to acknowledge father-in-law. I should

to what world I chose, and [ would tuke care that Margaret’s husband pro-

vided me with the money I should need. And if I grew tired of @hat life abroad, I could still come back and have a farm here: for I knew young Gabriel Myd- delten could be easily intimidated.

“But on that day I speak of, he brought an appalling tale. He had quarrelled with his uncle, had been dis- inherited, and had left Abbotsmoor for- ever. He told all this more to Mar- garet than to myself, and the girl sat beside the window where he stood, and looked as if something had turned her te stone. Put I sat behind and ate my

Itching Piles

A Fearfully Bad Case—Much Pain and Acute Misery From the Terrible Itching —Cured by Dr. Chase’s Ointment.

It is doubtful if any remedy ever ree

ceived so much grateful, unsolicited testimony as Dr. Chase's Ointment.

The reason is not far to seek, for it is the only preparation known to man which never fails to cure piles.

Mr. F. G. Harding, a retired farm- er, living at Nilestown, Middiesex county, Ont., writes as follows:— I have been troubled with bleeding and itching piles for four or five years, and suffered intense agony at times. I had tried almost everything, but could get nothing that would give relief. On hearing of Dr. Chase’s Ointment I pro- cured a box, and it only required part of it to completely cure me. I am re- commending it to all afflicted as I was.”

Such incontrovertible evidence from responsible persons cannot, for a@ mo- ment, be doubted. A few applications of Dr. Chase’s Ointment will convince the most skeptical of its wonderful healing and soothing influence, A box or two will positively cure the most se- vere case of piles; 60 cents a box, a8 all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co.

with a candle in his hand. I acted on my first impulse—what else could I do, in the surprise of the moment? I acted on my first impulse, as I have done all through my life. I dashed the cardle from his hand, and then—in the

dense darkness, when I felt he could not recognize me—-I struck him one deadly blow from my hammer; and,

knowing it would do its work on the weak, gray head, I left him there upon the floor and escaped from the window, with the will in my possession. [ fled across the lawn, but in the shrubbery beyond I paused to secure the parch- ment upon my person. ‘Then came an instant’s horrible shock. The old man, whom I had left for dead, had pursued me! He came up to me running, and I could see the crimson streaks upon his face, and the thirst for vengeance in his failing eyes—a fearless old man, in all his meanness. I stood a moment facing him; then, with one well-aimed blew, he lay dead upon the grass, and there was ng stain of blood upon my hands or clothes.

“I left him lying there, of course, and, hurrying through the wood, reached my own cottage an hour afterward, from quite an opposite direction.

“(iabriel Myddelton could better tell the rest. as his counsel told it for him at his trial, when my words and Mar- garet’s, and the facts which others add-

ed, made the tale of no avail. He had returned from Kinbury that night to

ask his uncle’s pardon. He had taken his way through the wood, intending to gnin admission to the squire’s room through the very window I had opened, that the servants might not know of his return at all, i¢ his unele did not for give him. Tn the wood he had found his uncle lying, and, astonished and alaria at what he thought must be a sud Gen illness, he had raised the old man’s head in his arms. What he saw I need not tell, though I am dictating this con jession as fully as possible, for a re l.ef to my burdened conscience.

“A horrible fear seized young Gabriel Myddelion that the suspicion of this foul deed would fall upon himself. He saw even then the chain of evidence ‘igainst him, which really brought him at last to the cell of a doomed criminal.

“Timid as he was by nature, there was but one course he could decide up- on. He fled from that spot in the wood as ifihis uncle’s fate awaited him there; ap he never stopped in his flight until he reached my cottage, and found pro- tection and help—as he famied, He washed the blood from his hands, burn- ed bis stained wristbands, and changed the eoat on which the old man’s head hud fallen and left its traces.

“Margaret told all this at the trial, and I stood by, and I knew the words would hang him. But he himself had oncther explanation of the tale to give, and now I swear that his was the truth; und ours, though im many respects true to the letter, held a lie in every word.

“I helped him that night, simply that I might know where he lurked; for, from the first, I had determined that suspicion must rest upon him. All my plins were frustrated by this unneces- sury and inconvenient murder, and per sonal safety now was my own motive in every action. In my first fear I bad begun to destroy the will, but now I theught of a fiendishly skilful plan. The fragments of the will which disinherit- ed him should be found in his poss¢s- sien, and he should be overtaken in his endeavor to escape. This, with what my daughter and I could tell, would fix the crime upon him; and not for a mo ment did the betrayal of his confidence weigh with me, beside my terror lest my own guilt should be discovered.

“The rest all followed as I had plan ned and foreseen. What I have told ts known only to myself and my daughter, aud I have heard her solemn oath that she will add her confession to mife. After I had sworn to Gabriel Myddel- ton’s guilt—yes, from the very first—I
