not so away. When the last hour of life drew
near, his'darkened soul was light again, and
he tenderly counselled the two dear - cups who
had hung over hith so faithfully, and bade
them bo of,good cheer, for though wealth 4as .
gone, the. unspotted honor of the hushaW and
lather should he yet shown to the world. .
Then commending them to the All. Father,
with a band clasped by each, their sweet voices ••
blended in holy hymns, passed away. A
grave was hollowed out for him on classic,
ground, and the snowy marble wreathed with
s a

ly the mourners turned "away, a proud ship
bearing them to their native land. ' •
Where were the crowds that had flocked
about them, as they loft its shares? Alas!
the widow and her child found none of theta.

the. obloquy that rested on the - dead man's

Ellen, passionately, yet mournfully, one even .

strangers than ask honest, employment of
these scornful apes, who trample so fiendishly -
upon our sacred griefs."
And they gathered 'up the remnant of their
treasures, and silently and secretly, lest the
shame should fly before them; went td a lone
ly home in the- city,- where we find them.
There they.readily procured needlework, and
all they could, do, for their" fingers , beautified
every garment that phased through their
hands. But the song of the shirt was soon the
only one they had strength to sing.. Night
brought no rest to the weary day, and though
twenty instead of the "twelve hours" of tho
Bible were bent in. toil, they were famished
and frozen.

curbed the wild grief of George, and spoke
so-sweetly to the mourning husband and

their midst. To-the sick woman, she was in

draught, brought such cool drinks to the hot
lips, and such - delicious food to the starved

Boas, it aasumed.a.beauty that was almost
divine. None knew whether it might be the
.gate to Paradise 'or. to n brighter life on'
earth, but all-felt that whether the Path of
the pale one was heavenward or hero, it was
flower crowned. '• •
, Day after day, and night after night, found

And when the crisis came, when Mrs. Sem.

ing a tnirror. to her lips the, fluttering life,
could be seen at all, when husband, brother,
children and friends had stolen softly away,

'On a bright and glorious morning, in the

It was the first long drive the physician

Ellen declined going at first. "I have
