Johnsons army came lhat fall and I went with Eliez-e- r Edwards to Toquervillc, where we were to leach the scrapings of the cave floors to obtain saltpetre to make gunpowder. We built vats and! w ashed the scrapings and ran the saltpetre in to other vats to crystallize. We then went to the sulphur mines near Beaver and got .sulphtUfr-vWe burned charcoal ,to mix with the sul-- , phur and saltpetre, and made a quantity of good powder. After the powder was made I wras sent to the iron mill where I worked as feeder for eighteen months. We ran the iron into bars which were sent to Salt Like.

We had two pot- tery plates and a pitcher. We often drank bran coffee without sugar or milk. Our bed was of straw; without a tick, laid, down, on the floor. We had on- ly two quilts- - While working at the mill, my meals mostly consisted of scalded cakes and! water. ' We moved to Hamil-- j ton's' foft in the spring of 1859.

I am going to live my own life, says the man who forgets his obligations in order to listen to the voice of the Lorelei. Pretty soon he is mixing sharp business practices with that new life of his and the ground is slipping away from under him faster than he counted on. I am tired of restraint, says the woman .who smashes her home to follow what she believes is the lead of her heart. But she' finds that the barridrs of society are high and that they block all roads. In the end the fires of her new life are almost certain to smoulder in ashes.
