Slimetimes in ea ing her workhome, the

the linding *ire that filled her eyes, have

A year bad rolled heavily by since Logan
went off, and still , nu word had come from-the
absent husband. Labor beyond her bodily
strength, and tronbl " and grief, that were too
seven for her spirit o bear, had done sad work
upon the forsaken wife and disowned child.—

He forewarned her of the consequences, if
she ticte In oppositinn to his wishes. He had
told her th lte wonldisown her forever. She
had taken he own ay, and painful as it MIS
to him, he had• ept his word—his' word that 1
i l
had ever been it ' late. He might forgive
her ~. he might pity i her ; but she remained a
stranger. Such . a direct and flagrant act of!
disobedience to his !wishes Was not to be for
gottCn or. forgiven. Thus, in stubborn pride.
didl is hard heart centirm itself in its cold and
:1
crue estrangement. Was be happy? No.—
Did e forget' his child? No; be' thought of

Of the fact that the husband of Fanny bad'
gone ! off and left tier with. two children to pro

been made fully Etwa., but it did not bend him
~
from his stern pimp*. -•
" She is nothing to me," was his impatient i
reply to the one wb had informed him• of the
fact. This was all that could .be seen. But.
his heart trembled a the intelligence. Never
theless; he stood Coldly aloof, month after month
and tier repulsed, angrily, the kind lady with .
whom Fanny boarded, who had attempted, all",
unknown to the daughter, to awaken sympathy
in her father's' heart., . , •
' One day the old friend, whose plain words
had not pleased Mr. Crawford, met that gen
tleman near his own.vloor. The Quaker wasn,
leading a little. boy by the hand. , Mr. Craw- I
ford bowed, and evidently wished to pass on ; .
but the' Quaker patted, and said :
"I shotdd like to have a few words with thee,.
friend Crawford." i. . .
"Well„say Ion."
- "Thee * konwn i . ts abeneiFolont Minn, friend '

Mr. Crawford glanced down at the child the
