From the first hour they met, Basil observed
to this boy P. ft:11111v attraction toward him,
which, moccover, ho watt somsvihat surprised td
feel rectprocatel iu his own nand. lie could not
account for the regard be thus u.) auddenly
entertained for the youth. 1.10 ::ad certainly
the finest bey h, Lad ever tieen, and thli, along
with the fact of iii❑ being hie namesake, and
having been spoken of by tha master, - was all be
could think of an eausiug the feeling. The
, 2Knution, too, of loving any objz.ot, was to him
quite a novslty; for through a period of years ho
had not had any Cid:ma, add but very few ac
quaintances: whani oonkty, besides, had been
rather a burden in Idol than deeltable
In the course) of a few weekathey had heentne
inseparable conipanien.l, aml kentned to feel much
and mutual delight in etn:ll other's society.
They walked awl rodo the neghborhood
together, and at home weto always side by side.
The effeot was soon evil:lout on little Geralll-L-he
took to books with morn zeal and assiduity
than any other boy s kt the soh col, and Boon fully
redeemed hiB oha.Aaer for talent. At the same
limo he lost much of hio devotion - to the play
ground, and would have neglected it altogether
were it not that Basil 1.1e4 ..3areptimeaho applaud
his dexterity at the variona games. And the
stimulus to all this was the approval of his
friend. Oae wont of prai,iti could do more than
twenty applications of the vc:l,whiie, if anything
was going en, a single serious. look woul,l make
him cease on the instant, and go way to another
corner of the room, where he would sit as quiet
as a mouse Lill roam won' of hiudnons would
draw him frow hi 3 hiding plane.
Basil was his coa,itaut refarenco in all caries of
doubt or difficulty the 'lc outlay of inkstands,
books and playthings-4110 surgeon of all outs
and bruises. Ile was made the confident of all
his thoughts and fuulings--the injuries received
from his playmates—his determination not to
submit to them—iiio dislike of some and good
As they ran:bled about together, the subjects
of their conversation were sometimes curioue—
such as moral right and wrong. justice, honor,
courage, leanly of scenery or any object, taste
and the like. On such topics Basil used to listen
with great pleasure to his little friend's ideasr
treating him always r 43 an equal, and allowing
him his full half uf the conversation; when hit;
opinions were incorrect, mildly and playfully
stating his own, end where the error lay.
Frequently, too lie talked to him, but always
w ith the ;A i r of companion—one receiving
an well in; giving information—en matters
of natural history, foreign. eountries, strange
experiences of his own ; or would tell him an
ecdotes of great men, or give him abkdraets of
the stories of plays and poems. And so happy
did little Gerald feel in sues Circumstances, that
he would often come to Basil, take him by the
hand, and say, "Come and have a walk with mo
and give me a lecture."
One evening in summer, when they had a long
ramble together, gathering nets and blackberries
Basil, tired out, sat down to rest by the sunny
side of a rock orownt.d with au ancient tower.
Little tierald came and eat down by his Hide,
t.ud after a loin; silence, bursting into tears, let
big head fill upon hi) shoulder and sobbed
cut,— .
"My dear Mr. May, I don't know how it is,
hut I am never happy but when I am with you.
Aso you a philosopher ?"
Such woro the traits that made Basil's heart
warm to this boy, towards whom he E;00:1 felt an
affection that in its strength and peculiar char-
actor brought up to his mind that which ho had
borne long ego to hie own father. It seemed tho
identical sort of feeling, equally intense and
equally pleasurable. When Gerald was not. near
him he felt a "want," as the expression is,while
his mind was full at anxiety lent some accident
might happen to him ; he could never apply his
thoughts seriously io any subject unless ho was
un d e r hie eyes nor di i he ever teel cheerful save
when the clear voice, and merry laugh of his
lit' le favorite were ringing iu his ear.
The greatest punishment Basil could inflict
open (lerald was to withhold his centenaries
'torn him—not to speak to him for some days ;
and this the culprit bit 1110eL lle iris
very miserable indeed, nod the wa ye h e t oo k to
get once more into his geml graces viers as awns
jug as they were en inn Aware that 13:1:,i1
was always pleaaml with ;dui for studiousness,he
would got hold .f helm, great volume, and fitllt •
irr g himself a little from him, would pour close.
ly (NM. it for hours, ever and anon lifting his
eyes to see if he were, how diligent he
was, or if Lilo :dem expression of h;a face were
relaxing. To such a pre.‘,.eteling his - obduracy
cnis sure :uid they wca.ll.l speedily be
friends again.
• wh en (lonia I ( O s ill, rvt 11,11g431'
oualy, any.iety 17)10 ineressed to torture ;
he was hardly able t f , il through hin avocations
as a teacher, , ani at night ectild not sleep. Ito
felt a constant impub , e to go to him to net)
whether he was not 11 , :ttnr, and at last seated
ttnuself beside ill bed, and took upon himself
the °thee of aurae, althotig the disease was an
tnfeetious one, and he was certain he never had

convalescent that h 6 Inn - rent , ' his peace of

I 11)1 atiDther th•11.:11,1, With some ()there,
1.14,1 beeu found guilty ( very heinOUS
schoolboy offense, fur vlnioli pur&liment
was demanded. Basil pleaded much to get hi,
.ti, but stern kutice, in the acapc of Mr. Elder
. isy, vac ; and he, had to look cu
while every blov inflicted on his little favorite
made his own nerves thrill with double the pain.
But this Tits prior to the illness. In the
icourse cf hie recovery from the latter he tins
•me evening enpressing„ 'With tears, his gratitude
li .nd ”tfection to such a disinterested friend ;
•4 I like you very well, indeed," eaid ho—
better than any one else "
" What, Gerald, better than your father and
ni,ther, and all at home I"
Yoe know it would not be right to love any
bo y better than them."
‘• But, alter them, I am the hest liked, I
hope."
"Yes; but I like my grandfather very welt,

Oh, very kind; t,ut not no kind nor SO good

me."
‘• Yen know you tiro my little adopted son—my
son G-rold."
" Y(39, that's all very (Inn, but, wheu I leave
you and go homo, you will soon forget all about
me."
About a month after Ilk when he was again
well and active, and running about as before, ho
was suddenly called home to his friends. This
was a blow sufficiently severe to Basil, who had
for several months felt all but happy in his soci
ety.
