I used 'to go out to tho great pasturo where k tho shecji browsed , nil , day, and Fit suil think thoughts I had no words for, and make beautiful pictures for myself in my mind not fine ones, sir. This is what I sec tho ofUuoU A liulo -ootUgo-tiud ii widu firo.. place, such as they had in.iny day, n dresser with' it row of tlcljUl Vpon it, four chairs, and !v tatiic''6f pliic. 'AVlieu I had theso I was to marry I'eggy Grcy.- liut when I should havo theni, nnd she hud litf white wedding gown nnd the house linen, neither of us knew. "She put lidr "sixpences into "a reil "eaftli-" em savings bank, and I kept mine in nn old glove. , i For two years wd had been waiting and hoping, and weroi.unt much nearer than, at first., Hoiuotinios ' I., folt down-hearted, iSonictiuics her little .lut tors wcro a bit sad. And just as ,1 sat. in the meadow I know she sat before tho kitchen fire in tho house that tsho lived at service. .Simple folks wc were, , Uit. wc had hearts, and felt, perhaps, as deep ly as greater folks might. ' ' . , ' j 3Ty master, tho fiu-iiicr, was ' a '' close man. 116 squeezed as much work but of his' hands' ns possible.! 1$ut it was a steady place,' nnd he paid all Tic proijiiscd ; so Ir staid, never thinking what! trouble staying would bring 'to- nic trouble- that " never would have cohio ' but for Mark ITulkor.' A good-for-uothirtg fellow he Wnii, ti ' dis--grace to the rest of us, and he 1 cheated tho master hnd left his work undone. PO' after hours, master set me ' at 1 his stinti and it being indoor work, I kept at it nil night.1! The old limn likod thntr and sot mo a new task every night. All tho bet tor for me; I thought ho would pay. mo extra, nnd what was weariness to me, if it only brought mo nearer my l'oggy iSo I counted tho hours' work as so many shillings. , Hut when. Saturday night came ho gave me just my week's work, " Master," said 1, I've , worked oyer hours every night; you forgot that." i . " I hire you by the week," he said. i; I'll give you no more than one' weed's wages. So, if you don't like it there arc plenty of strong lads to be had, you are growing lazy." Then ho turned his back on mo, nnd Mark laughed. That anger ed nie, aud words fell from my lips. We had a quarrel, lmistor nnd I, aud I call ed him a ."niggardly: qld rascal," und with that ho dismissed me from his ser vice. . , ;. ... , . " At dawn, you go," said he. . .". You've worked to-day. and havo a right to your bed at night, but at dawn you go." , , I marched out of the room, with words I never should have used, and up to my garret and threw myself on my bed. 5ut I did not mean' to stay to be' turned out. At midnight, I rose softly, Inado up a bundle, and climbed out of a window. I cut my hands with the glass of a bro ken pane, and blood dropped down upon my clothes. ' liut I was too angry to ieol the pain ; and I " bound up tho wound with a handkerchief. ; Then I trudged on, meaning to look for work next day. So I did, but 1 found none. ,; Then the thought struck mo to make . my way to i , nnd seo l'cggy. It would bo a comfort to, nio whatever came. , So I turned my steps in that direction," nnd kept on until night fell. Then, faint and weary, I lay down under some bushes aud feel asleep. ','"'"' ' '" " ; 1 '. ' "' 1 Out of that sleep I Was aroused by a shout and a clutch of strong hands. Men stood about me. One shouted my name They held nie' fast and bound we. ' ! 1 I struggled, but it was of'tio use.' Numbers were against my single strength. "What are you? ' atobbers? .I've nothing worth the taking,". I said, at last; and when standing still, I saw faces I knew about me those of the farm hands at my old master's. ' ; i j,.,,. . : " You know well, Jack Mulone," suid one, " If ho did speak an ill-word at last. he was a good man in the main, und you'd worked for him three years, You might have answered him as you liked, but to try to murder him was too horri ble. We didn't think it of you, Jack we didn't think it.'", ; " ' ,: Murdered!" I cried, "is' old master murdered? ,"Vhy lay it to tne? I swear I never hurt bini !" ' ""' '' "If he is not quite "dead it's hone of your fault," cried another man.' " iVra't perjure yourself look nt the ' blood on your clothes' ''" "! ' 1 ' The blood from my hand was 1 in clots nnd smears all over my vest. I foel my heart turn sick when I think of it. t " Master will clear nie," I su'ul. . . ' lie says it was you," said one of the men. " At least, he nodded i ys, when we asked bim if you did it." 1 . i " Then old master was not rigLt in hi mind,", I said. " He'd never bo against mo.", , , ,,, ; 'After that I heard the whole. Master had paid the men and dismissed Murk.-r lie had only suid "all right, I am tired of work," aud bad eaten breakfast there, and left in sight of alL liut I was gone; and when they fouud , that master, who was always up at cock-crow, found him on the floor senseless they thought bim dead at first. Ho bad been robbed of his pocket-book, a watch, and an old-fashioned pin he always wore' in his handker chief the painted - head of ' u lady set around with what be used to tell us were pearls an oruauient old than his 'grand j'uthcr. . ' ' : : They found ' nothing nrotind , me, of course, but tho 'riinrrel and my cnt hand made tho caso hard against ' mo. ,j Tho master dying ns they, thought him, hnd been" adla to speak at odd times; and said that', to tho best of his knowledge and bc lief I was the nssailant.' It'fras dark, to' be sure,' but in the struggle ho folt that tho man woro u cap, nnd I was tho only hand who had anything , but ,n straw. hat. Besides ho camo from tho inner passage and down (.lyi syi, sndlid, fitit bivoakju through deov.. or ivfiadiA, ns' abirglar would have done. And I was tho only missing member of tho household. So I lay in prison vfith; thif awful Jdinrg upofj mo, until they knew whether master would Ihrc or dre ynnd tny greatest grief was for l'cggy, ,.,. . .:, .: ,!.., " Keep it' from her," I .bogged them, " until sho inust kuqw it.'! , .. . . , And, they were kiuJ and did; and her, letters were sent to, me in prison., It was a weary time, and ho, one drop of com-, fort in it, came with thos6 letters. I had, had fivoTiom her whcti at the end of one came this : ' ' '" ',' ' ; Hear. Jack : -I, never hido anything fi'om you, and I do not want , to boast of livy, conquests', a thing I'd never do ; but just to let you know I keep "no secrets to myself, 1 must tell you what has hap pened.' Our ' master has birod a man, a lazy felW. that I disliked ,rit first sight, Mark Ilulker by nailie; ahd ' what should he do but take ir notloh ' fo nie, 1 or 'pi'C: tend to do so, trying 'his best to sit up with me after his work hours," nnd fol lowing nid about wherever I go of n hol iday. . 'J'licir he tries to make nie like him by telling tno how rich' ho is:. " Four hundred dollars' he has laid by, ' ho say,i,' and a gold watch liko a gentleman. The other -.Sunday I was dressed for churchi mid up ha walks. ,, 'Why, l'cggy,' says he; ' You've no pin to your collar.' . Said 1, ' I can't afford money. for finery.' .Then says he, 'Now, how .lucky it is that I've ouo to give you,' and he pulls a pin from his pocket. Jack, I couldn't help look ing at it. Jt wasa lady's portrait, with hair nil white though sho was young like an old woman's. lie said it was powered ns they done it in old times ; and a pink dress and no bigger than a silver quarter altogether. ' How ho came by such it thing, goodness knows ! L'ut of Cnursd I wouldn't have it. Says be'.:' ' Now do take it, Peggy, I want to keep oompany with you, 'and now, you know the truth.'' 'So says I:''' I want hotthcr your company uor your presents,' nnd plcaso reincniber thut hereafter.'
