the old woman exulting, "do you know

And when I told her—"she would not
have believed it !" But she did ; and she'
took hold of my band again (for she was
blind)and smoothed down the plaits of her
apron, and jogged her strings, to look tidy
in the presence of a gentleman. And she
told the long stories about the old house
and how the people came in afterwards;
and she called me "sir" stonetimes, and
sometimes "Paul," But 1 a:died her only
to say Paul ; she seemed glad tier this and
talked easier; and went on to tell of my old
pl ayma t es; a nd how we used to ride the
pony—poor Jaeko I—and how we gather
ed nuts—such heaphig piles; and how we
used to play fox and geese t 'ugh the long
winter eveniugs • and how my poor moth

She could not have gone on much longer,
