The district attorney, whom.-.- I had met before, caifte to see me after supper and asked more questions and advised me to talk with no one about the shooting without his consent. Soon he went away, and after I had learned my lessons Mr. Hacket said: Let us walk up to the jail and spend a few minutes with Amos. We hurried to the jail., The sheriff, stern-facea stout-builman, admit" ted us. a Can we see .the Grimshaw boy? Mr. Hacket inquired. ' I guess so,, he answered as he lazily rose from his chair and took down a bunch of large keys which had been hanging on the wall. , His father has just left., He spoke in a low, solemn tone which impressed me deeply as he put a lighted candle in the hand of the schoolmaster. He fled us through a door into a narrow corridor. He thrust a big key into the lock of a heavy iron grating and threw it open and bade ns step in. We entered an room with a number of cells against its rear wall. He locked tije door behind ns. I saw a face and figure in the dim candle light, behind the grated door of one of these cells. How lonely and dejected and helpless was the expression of that figure ! The sheriff went to the door and unlocked It. Hello, Grimshaw, he said sternly. Step out here. It all went to my heart the manners of the sheriff so like the cold iron of his keys and doors the dim candle light, the pale, frightened youth who walked toward us. We shook his hand and he said that he was glad to see ns. I saw the scar under his loft ear and reaching out upon his cheek, which my stone had made, and knew that he bore the mark of Cain. He asked If he could see me alone and the sheriff shook his head and said , d t, . i , stone-floore- d that my spirit. I blushed and surveyed my garments and said: I guess I look pretty bad, dont I?

Next morning on my way to school passed a scene more strange and memorable than any in my long experience.., I saw the shabby figure of old Benjamin, Grimshaw walking 'In the. side path. Jlis hands were in his pockets, his eyes bent upon the ground, his lips moving as if he were in deep thought. Itoviug Kate, the ragged, silent woman who, for the fortune of Amos, had drawn a gibbet, the shadow of which. was now upon him, walked slowly behind the money lender pointing at him with her bony forefinger. Her stern eyes watched him as the cat watches when Its prey is near it She did not notice me. Silently, her feet wrapped in rags, she walked behind the man, ulways pointing at lihu. When he stopped she stopped. When he resumed his slow progress she followed. It thrilled me, .partly because I had begun to believe in the weird, mysterious power of lhe Silent Woman. I hud twenty minutes to spare and so, I turned Into the main street behind nnd close by them. I saw him stop and buy some crackers and an apple and a piece of cheese. Meun-wbll- e she stood pointing nt him. Do saw, but gave no heed to her. He walked along the street In front of the stores, she following as before. How patiently she followed I I started for the big schoolhouso and a number of boys joined me with pleasant words. Sally ran past us with that lowlived Wills boy, who carried her books Sooner or later the weak man finds for her.

Michael Henry, whatever the truth may be regarding the poor boy in jail, we are In no way responsible. Away with sadness! What is that?.., . Mr. Hacket inclined his ear and then added: Michael Henry says that he may be innocent and that we had better go and see if we can help him. Now I hadnt thought o that Had you, Mary? No, the girl answered. "We must be letting Mike go ahead of ns always, said her father, VYou saw the crime, I believe, turning to me. I told them all I knew of it. Upon my word, I like you, my brave lad, said the schoolmaster. I heard of all this and decided that you would be a help to Michael Henry and a creditable student. Come, let us go and pay our compliments to the senator. The schoolmaster and I went over to Mr. Wrights house a white, frame building which had often been pointed out to me. Mrs. Wright, a lady who met us nt the door, said that the senator had gone over to the mill with his wheelbarrow. Weve plenty of time and well wait for him, said the schoolmaster. "I see him ! said little John ns. he nnd Ruth ran to the gnte and down the rough plank walk to meet him. We saw him coining a little way s down the street in his with his barrow in front of him. He stopped and lifted little. John in his arms, and after a moment put him down and embraced Ruth. Well, I see ye still love the tender embrace o' the wheelbarrow, said Mr. Ilncket as we approached the cenntor. My embrace is the tenderer of the two, the latter laughed with a look nf his hands. He recognized me nnd seized my two hands and shook them os he said : Upon my word, here Is my friend Bart I was not looking for you here. He put his hand on my head, now higher than his shoulder, and said: I was not looking for you here. He asked about my aunt and uncle and expressed joy at learning that I was now under Mr. Hacket I shall be here for a number of he said, and I shall wint to J see you often. Maybe well go hunting some Saturday. We bade him good morning and he went on with his wheelbarrow, which was loaded, I remember, with stout sacks of meal and flour. We went to the school at half past eight. What a thrilling place It was With Its 78 children and its three rooms. How noisy they were as they waited in the schoolyard for the bell to ring ! I stood by the doorslde looking very foolish, I dare say, for I knew not what to do with myself. My legs encased in the tow breeches felt as if they were on lire. I saw that most of the village boys wore bought-e-n clothes and fine boots. I looked down at my own leather and was a tower of shame on a foundation of greased cowhide. Sally Dunkelberg came in with some other girls and pretended not to see me. That was the hardest blow I suffered. d Among the handsome, boys of the village was Henry Wills the boy who had stolen my watermelon. I had never forgiven him for that or for the killing of my little hen. The bell rang and we marched into the big room, while a fat girl with crinkly hair played on a melodeon. Henry and another boy tried to shove me out of line and a big paper wad struck the side of my head as we were marching in and after we were seated a cross-eyefreckled girl In a red . dress made a face at me. - If was, on the whole, the nnhapplest day of my life. During recess I slapped a boys face for calling me a rabbit and the two others who came Meet President Van Buren and Am by Mr. Grimshaw. The days went easier after that. The boys took me Into their play and some of them were most friendly. I had a swift foot and a good eye as well as a- strong arm, and could jld my own at three old cat a kind of baseball which we played in tho schoolyard. Saturday came. As we were sitting down at the table that morning the younger children clung to the knees of Mr. Hacket and begged him to take them up the river in a boat. Good Lord! What wilt thou give me when I grow childless? he exclaimed with his arms around them. That was the question of Abraham, and It often comes to me. Of course w shall go. But hark ! Let us hear what the green chair has to say. There was a moment of silence and then he went on with a merry laugh. Right ye are, Michael Henry I You are always right, my boy God bless your soul! We shall take Bart with us an doughnuts an cheese an cookies an dried meat for all. From that moment I date the beginning of my love for the occupant of the green chair in the home of Michael Hacket. Those good people were Catholics and I a Protestant and yet this Michael Henry always ; insisted upon the most delicate consideration for my faith and feelings. I promised to spend the morning in the field with Mr. Wright, if I may have your consent, sir, I said. "Then we shall console ourselves, knowing that you are in better company, said Mr. Hacket. Mr. Dunkelberg called at the house in Ashery lane- to see me after breakfast. , Bart, if you will come with me I should like to order some store clothes and boots for you, he said in his squeaky voice. For a moment I knew not how to answer him. Nettled as I had been by Sallys treatment of me, the offer was like rubbing ashes on the soreness of I .

There was to be no more wavering in my conduct At the supper table Mr. Hacket kept us laughing with songs and jests and stories. The boy John, having been reproved' for rdpid eating, hurled his spoon upon the floor. VThose in favor of his punishment will please say aye?! said the schoolmaster , I remember that we had a divided house on that important question. The schoolmaster said: Michael Henry wishes him to be forgiven on promise of better conduct, but for the next offense he shall ride the badment across his fathers knee.

After that they began to make friends with me. In the noon hour a man came to me in the schoolyard with a subpena for the examination of Amos Grimshaw and, explained Its meaning. W,hile I was talking with this man Sully passed me walking with unollier girl and said: . Hello, Bart I observed thnt Henry Wills joined them and walked down the street at the side of Sally. . I got my first pang of jealousy then. When school was out that afternoon Mr, Hacket said I could have an hour to see the sights of the village, so I set out, feeling much depressed. I walked toward the house of Mr. Wright and saw him digging potatoes In the garden and went In.
