It was called Barratt‘s Chapel, and is as solid toâ€"day as on the day it was opened for divine worship. The land it occupies was deede for the purpose by Philip Barratt, in Murderkill Hunâ€" dred. Here in 1874 Bishop Thomas Coke of the Methodist Church ~met Bishop Francis Asbury, the latter the first man in America ordained by the Methodists to the Episcopal office. Out of the meeting grew a plan to carry Methodism all over the United States. The first native Methodist minister in America is said to have been Richard Owen, of Maryland. One of the most famous of such ministers was "Father" Joshue Thomas, who for the better part of a half century travelled up and down the Chesapeake in a big "bugâ€" eye," as the ‘long, narrow and very staunch boats of a certain type are called, preaching to the islanders, most of whom were and are fishermen.

Panâ€" sy flashed forth indignantly, but he deâ€" nied the accusation, and continued: "I eannot bear to return to her without you. The disappointment in her dying eyes would haunt me. I will make you a proposition, Pansy: Come with me to her dying bed, and I will manage things so that you shall see her alone. Not even her mother shall enter the room, and you shall go away again, and not a living soul be any the wiser for your presence there." She saw that he was very much in earnest, that he would do as he said, and, twisting her little hands together in an agony of indecision, she exclaimâ€" ed: "Do you know that in a little more than an hour I am to leave here for the White Sulphur Springs? Miss Ives has already gone around to her friends who will accompany us. My husband will come home presently to drive with me to the depot." "And in the meantime your poor, dying sister is calling for you in vain. Pansy Laurens, you are utterly heartâ€" less!" exclaimed Mr. Finley,â€" with a fine show of indignation. She trembled perceptibly, and grew pale as a snowdrop under the glare of the gaslight. . "May her uneasy spirit haunt you, and drive repose from your breast!" he cried tragically. ho Whirling toward him with a disdainâ€" ful gesture /of her white hand, she exâ€" claimed: "What if I went with you, simply to humour the fancy of this poor dying girlâ€"mind, I own to no relationship with herâ€"what would be the price of vour silence?" Without a moving muscle, he anâ€" swered.cooly: "A thousand dollars!" "You .are certainly rapacious! 1 could not give you such a sum toâ€" night." "I should not expect it. I would give you a week to raise it, if you would leave with me some of your diamonds as a guarantee of good faith," he reâ€" plied, with an air of business that amused while \it disgusted her. "Unfortunately, my jewels are packâ€" ed and my.trunks are gone. You will have to depend upon my simple word of honor, or go back as you came," she replied coldly. He studied her face for a moment, then said sullenly: "I will take your word of honor then. You: have too much at stake to risk disappointing me. So that is setâ€" tled..Of course, if you did not pay me in a week I should follow you to White Sulphur Springs. Will you come with me now?" "Go out and hail some passing cab, and keep it waiting at the corner around the nexe square. I will join you there in a few minutes, for I have no time to lose. I must return here in time to join my husband," Pansy anâ€" / swered, dismissing him with a wave of ‘ her hand, and then hastening upstairs | to don a concealing bonnet and veil,. and to leave some, plausible excuse| with Phebe for Colonel Falconer, who might return at any moment. | She left the house regretfully, with unsteady steps and a foreboding heart, fearing that shke was doing wrong, but drawn by a passionate yearning to the deathbed of her beloved siser. "How could I refuse her dying prayâ€" er, even though its granting be attendâ€" ed with so much risk and loss to myâ€" self?" she thought, with generous pity and selfâ€"sacrificingâ€" love. i She had recovered fuall consciousâ€" ness, and appeared so much better and appeared so much better than had been expected by her: physiciam that he declared it quite likely that she would recover, if no untoward.cireumâ€" stances intervened. Fortunately for Finley‘s purpose, the physician was watching by her bed alone, having perâ€" suaded the family to go into the diningâ€"room and partake of tea. A clever thought came to Finley, and he exclaimed: "Remember," she said to Finley, as they were whirled up the steep grade of Broad Street toward his home on Church Hil), "I must see Alice Laurâ€" ens alone.. You will go in first, and see that every one else leaves the room." "I will do so," he promised, and no more was said between them. At the corner below his residence the ‘hack was stopped. He got out, and directâ€" ed her to wait until he returned for hew. The physician seized hise hat, and, promising to return after a while, darted |out leaving the grocer in posâ€" session. 4 In afew minutes more the two longâ€" parted sisters were weeping in each other‘s arms. When he rentered the house he found that a great change had taken place in the invalid. "Doctor Hewitt, a man has fallen in a fit on the corner two squares beâ€" low, and they are hunting a physiâ€" clan everywhere. I will watch beside Alice if you will go." HCRREIUMIY 1 He stooped over Alice, who was reâ€" gardin him with wide open, loathing eyes, for he was universally hated by his stepchildren, and, bending down, whispered hurriedly : sommio en wl C ante o "«Your sister Pansy is coming to see you. Mind, there must be no outcry, and you must never tell any one she came, for she can stay but a few minâ€" utes, and no one must ever know she has been here." "Do not try to talk, my darling sisâ€" ter," whispered Pansy fondly, while Finley adroitly lowered the gas and turned the key in the door. Tenderly. caressing Alice, Pansy continued: "I was not drowned, Alice, but I made you all think so that you might not worry over my fate. I am the wife of a good manp, but he does not know my sad story, and I can never own my reâ€" latives, for then he would find out everything, and be is so proud he would cast me off.~But I could not stay away, dear, when they told me you were dying, so I came in secret." "Lam glad that you came, my precâ€" jous sister: but there is some mistake about my dying, for the doctor says I have a fair chance of getting well," Alice answered feebly. "Thank Heaven!" murmured her beautiful sister, and the silence of:â€" deep emotion fell over them as they clung to each other. } T he Great Reward H (Continued from last week) Finley looked on with exultation. These moments of reunion between the longâ€"parted sisters were worth a thouâ€" sand dollars to him now. and much more in the future; for, having once establisheda claim on Pansy, he would never rest satisfied until he had wrung from her every dollar she could comâ€" mand for years to come. : "a "Oh, Alice, I long to see our mother, but I dare not do so. she must never know that I am living. You must keep the secret of this meeting, and, on, yoifi must love her well, and be very good. to her for my sake , as well as your, own," murmured Pansy, with tears, in her beautiful eyes, as she drew her, self reluctantly from Alice‘s clasping, arms. o. oi "Must you go so soon?" sighed. the suffering girl. 2 on B § "I dare not stay longer," sobbed Pans sy. She bent down and whispered hurs riedly: "Alice, I will send you some money anonymously, and you must let no one know it came from me. Spend it for yourself, mamma, and Nora, Goodâ€"by, darling!‘ And, pressing hes lips to her sister‘s check in despairts ing love, she rose upright, and said anxiously: § * J She had pushed her thick veil bacl to the top of her borinet, and her bear tiful, pale face was clearly defined even in the dimlight of the room. Mi Finley had forgotten that in this room which was upon the first floor, thert was a window that opened upon ; narrow â€" alley..
