We can help you only by pointing the way. Under normal conditions good shooting is generally found at the higher elevations on the two or three mountain.

Yet he contrived to let me know he wanted to see me. I had heard that he was ailing, though I was not aware that he was confined to his room. I found him propped up with pillows in a big chair, and having trouble to breathe. When I entered the room he extended his hand and parted his lips to speak, but instead, his lips twitched and he looked at me in si- ut m ! far-gra- ss do. He was hoping I could understand; I was full of sympathy, but it was very mysterious, lie caught the radiations of my good will and proceeded. I have wanted to tell this to somebody-- - I simply had to tell somebody, and- - and- - somehow it seemed that it must be you. I hope I can make myself clear. He was nearer death than I had imagined, and I dropped all my reservations in considering his surprising appeal: I sohuld have got down to this months ago at that time I might have made some reparation too late now I still want to do what I can to be forgiven to confess the whole affair. Im mighty sorry, I cut in, but I have no authority to forgive sin, other than for my own personal good will." I know that, he answered with labored breath, but you can be 'a witness that I had repented, that I fully acknowledged by guilt and hid nothing. Then withciifficulty and many painful pauses, he unfolded to me the account of something I had never once imagined. I was shocked, yet somehow I was moved with tender sympathy, and clung to the earnest hope that he could be forgiven. Ive fried to think of some way in which the world is better for my having come into it, he continued, I can't think of one little phase of it that has been made better for what I have contributed. I can see how it is much worse for the part I have de taken.
