him, but could uot draw tho patriotic
goncralinto nn enpagetneiit.
At that period the.ro stoou io orth

Dcatly vhitowasod, nnd surrounded
by a fence. Tho garden containod
many choioo flowers, nod Ihon benuti
tiful boney suckles shaded tho doors

Mrs. Heath, who livod with hor two
daughters, whilo hor son Goorgo was
la Washington's army fighting for
freedom.
Kato, tho eldest of the daughtcrc,
was a beautiful girl ol sixteen sum
mers ; hor auburn hair huocr In grace
ful curls down hor shonldcrs, and her
face beamed with kindness, whilo hor
eyes Phone like tho pretty stars that
lighted op tno azure vaults or Heaven.
Doe evoninir, as Kate wan standing
at the cottniro door, she beheld two
mounted olliccrs anproachiug. i bey
were richly drewed, and ono of them
she rccogrjizi'd as Lord Itnwdon, the
commander of the British forces Id
that section of tho country. They
rode np to hor, nnd Rawdon leaned
over iu bis saddle and addressed hor
in a kind voioo.
" Well, mist, can you let mo have
lie use of a room for a few ininutos?"
11 Yes, sir, our houso is open to

" Come, Colonel, let us hurry up
