"Edward, or Edatmd; at least he told
the children Nad," replied Mary.
"And that boy s name was Jackson—
Jack Anthony. 1 remember perfectly
now; and it's just come over me that
I've heard aotnewhere that be died of
yellow fever in New Orleans." Miss
Cornelia's tone was one of bitter disap-
pointment, and her face had lengthened
quite an inch. She had been hunting on
a cold scent after all.
Within a month from that day Mrs.
Beverley was in a position to have re-
stored joy to her aunt's soul by the as-
surance that her conjecture had been
abeolutely correct, had she been so
minded. And the way that the knowl
edge came to her was this.
CHAPTER VTLL
E
"I «wi« poor mid uncoKth, hut the new
yrxulycd to puttier little/itindM In mine."
Mrs. Beverley was in the habit of go-
ing at least once a month, sometimes
oftener, to the family bnrying ground,
to see that everything was neat and
trim, and the place free froui fallen
twigs and rubbish. It was a lovely,
peaceful spot, on the crest of the hill
just beyond the orchard, which it over-
looked. as well as the house and yard
and a magnificent stretch of view made
np of hill and dale and wooded moun-
tains and broad shining reaches of slow-
ly flowing river. Around it. instead of
the usual wooden paling, was a close
cedar hedge, broken only at the spot
where the gate gave access to what is so
beautifully termed "God's acre." In
the center were three tall cedars, stand-
ing so as to form a triangle, and nnd<M
the shadows of their spreading branches
rested the dust of many generations of
Beverleys.
It was a soft, still, April evening The
cloudless sky bent lovingly over the
earth, as the bridegroom bends over the
bride, and the earth smiled with the
joyous promise of the season of love an<l
hope. Soft green things pushed up
through the brown mold, crocuses
opened golden hearts to the kisses of the
breeze, violets unfolded white and pur-
ple petals and sweetened the air with
their fragrant breath, and lilies of tho
valley and snowdrops were waiting coy
ly for the sun to coax and woo them into
shaking out their snowy bells. On the
hickory, oak and poplar trees downy
little knots of leaves were bursting their
brown shells and coming forth to view
the world. In the budding branches
birds twittered and chirped of love and
housekeeping, and every instinct was
for germination and growth and press-
ing upward.
Mary passed through the orchard un-
der the budding apple trees with a feel
ing of peace in her heart that was partly
the outcome of deep sympathy with na-
ture and partly the atmosphere of her
own sweet soul. In her hand she car
ried a little basket of spring Howeni to
lay in loving remembrance on the gray
slab of granite that covered the grave o'.
the tall, fair haired soldier who hAd
wooed and won her twelve long years
before, and whose blue eyes still gazed
into hers from under little Ran's brown
curls
Her tnind was full of thoughts of him
and her mood was soft and tender as
she opened the gate gently and entered
the sacred spot. She did not glauce
about, but passed straight along the lit-
tle center walk to the granite slab which
was close to the trunk of one of the
cedars. She shook out all her flowers
and formed with them a wreath around
the short inscription: "Hector Beverley
Obiit April. 18—, »etat. 85." It was
only when her task was done that she
became aware of the presence of a man
in the corner by the cedar hedge kneel-
ing beside the grave of a little child.
His back was toward her, and be had
a trowel in his hand and a large basket
on the ground beside him, from which
he took clumps of green and planted
them on the grave. The breath of vio-
lets filled the air with perfume, and
Mary, attracted in spite of herself, and
•lightly curious, went softly over the
short green grass and stood close behind
him, looking down. She had known at
once that it was Anthony, and seeing
him there beside the grave of her hn»-
band's little sister brought to her mind
the thought of the lonely boy, with his
hard, nulovely childhood, and she knew
with one of those swift intuitions women
have, that that boy was kneeling there
at her feet.
Anthony had cleared away the sod
from the conter of the mound in the
shape of a cross, and was planting it
thick and close with great tufts of hot-
house violets, purple and white, whurn
fragrance rose purely and seemed to
breathe of a love that was deathltws.
After silently watching the strong
brown hands at their work for a mo-
ment, Mary unfastened a hunch of white
and lilac crocuses from her bosom, and
stooping laid them on the foot of the
grave. Anthony glanced up at her with
a brief "Thank you!" and went on with
his work. He was not surprised or star-
tled; his trained senses had made him
aware of her approach from the moment
her hand touched the latch of the gate,
and as she stood behind him he had
taken a sudden resolution. He would
tell her about himself, his connection
with her husband's family, his love for
the child whose little form rested be-
neath the cross of violets.
In that sacred place and presence be
forgot to wonder how it would affect
her, or what change if any it aught
make in their relative position*. He for-
got to think of himself at all.
Bising to his feet, he turned his face
which was not noble hi line or expres-
sion. and yet was hestest and manly and
straightforward, full upon her. and
pointing to the grave si his feet, said

CHAPTER IX.
"Mammal" shouted Hector, at the t»p
ot his voice, dashing into the parlor in a
state of great excitement, followed close-
ly by little Ban. "please come over ta
the quarters right straight Uncle
Patrick is in the kitchen and be says
that Mr. Anthony is going to pull ail
the cabins down and send all the colored
folks away. Uncle Patrick says he
hasn't got any plaoe to go. He's old and
cant work apy longer and nobody
wants to be bothered with him and Aunt
Kitty any more, because they ain't any
use. He's crying, mamma, awful hard,
and he says they'll have to go to the
poorhouse if you don't help them. Mr
Anthony says they wilL"
"He don't want to go to the poorhouse.
mamma," chimed in Kan eagerly
"Dont let him go; it's drefful to see him
cry, and he's so old. He says he can t
stand it to go; he wonld liever be dead!"
The boy's eyes filled with tears, and his
little lips trembled as he pressed close to
his mother's side, trampling on her dress
with his dusty little shoes in his excite-
meut and distreea
"Ami. mamma. Mr. Anthony is going
to pull tho houses all down," insisted
Hector. "Ho ought not to do that. The
servants won't havo any place to go, aud
father always Irt theiu live there. Mr
Anthony ought not to pull the houses
down."
By the exercise of considerable pa-
tience and a good deal of ability iu cross
questioning. Mrs. Beverley finally ar
rived at a clear comprehension of the
esse. The cabins, five in number, all
that were left of the original row,
stood, as has been stated, just in front of
the overseer's house, and not a stone's
throw from it. The site selected (at
Mary's suggestion, us she remembered
now) for the handsome new residence
which the owner of Lower Repton pro-
posed to erect for himself was on the
creet of the hill, in a fine grove of trees,
and commanding a most magnificent
view. The cabins would be in full sight
of all the front windows and were any-
thing but an addition to the landscape,
looking, in truth, as their owner ex-
pressed it, like "a lot of miners' shanties
roqnd an old shaft."
As the work upon the new house was
to commence immediately, the material
all engaged and the architect actually
on his way to Virginia, Mr. Anthony
had decided not to wait about moving
the cabins until after its completion, as
he had spoken of doing when he talked
the matter over with Mrs. Beverley, but
to take them away at once. According-
ly, the work of demolition had been in-
augurated that very morning, and the
cabins were being taken to pieces and
carted to other parts of the estate for
re-erection. The negroes whom An-
thony wished to retain in his employ
had arrangements made for their ac-
commodation during the period of their
homelessnees, while those of whom he
wished to rid himself simply had notice
given them to quit by a certain day.
Among these last was poor old Pat-
rick and his equally old and still more
infirm wife. They had never been house
servants nor very intimately associated
with the family life, but they had been
born and raised on the Beverley estate,
and had occupied that particular cabin
ever since their wedded life began,
nearly sixty years before, and had, not
unnaturally, counted on being allowed
to die in it They had long outlived
their children, and their grandchildren
had all drifted away to seek a liveli-
hood in other places, leaving the ancient
couple still a fixture on the old planta-
tation, firm in the conviction that the
white people would never see them come
to want. They were so old that, beyond
their own few household matters, no
work was expected of them, and they
lived on from year to year, their few
wants supplied and their comfort looked
after by the white family, just as it
would have been had they never been
emancipated.
When the sale of the lower part of the
estate put the cabin in which the old
people lived beyond her control, Mrs.
Beverley had been anxious to move her
pensioners over to a house in ber own
yard, where she could see that they were
properly attended to. But they were
loath to leave the cabin to which they

had grown wedded in sixty years of oc-
cupancy. and had procrastinated, always
willing but never ready, until they found
themselves, as the old man expressed it
with tears streaming down his cheeks,
literally "tn'ned out in de road to die."
Mary found the old negro sitting in
the kitchen door, in a state of tremulous
excitement and indignation, with a fringe
of sympathetic darkies around him. He
had no real apprehension of the poorboose
suggestion's ever being carried into
effect, fo$ ta knew very well that "

Height of Cruelty.
Nervous women seldom receive
the sympathy they deserve.
While often the pictures of health
they are constantly ailing. To
withhold sympathy from these un-
fortunates is the height of cruelty.
They have a weak heart,
causing shortness of breath,
fluttering pain in side, weak
and hungry spells and final-
ly swelling of ankles, oppres-
sion, choking, smothering and
dropsy. Dr. Miles' New Hear*
