Harold and his sister continued to work the patches about the house, and year after year mortgage a few acres or land for money to pay taxes, not daring to sell or rent, for fear their treasure would fall in other hands than their own. Through the long years of protless search it never occurred to them, or, if it did, was not acted on, that in the farm they had a tfruitful and unfailing source of revenue. One day in early June, as Harold sat on the moss-grown Eton-p, gazing gdreamily out on the luxuriant and tangled undergrowth, a peddler crossed the stile and labored slowly beneath a pack along the paved walk. /'nI1ll'1 I't1l`I lily!) fn I-nsvonlsnnn. .'. .l!--:... `Water Lime, Plaster ox Parisl v:-..~__ v.4 ,, H Dunlop Street, S S-I.mgr- I , \ known as The Moore Block " 1-)nnI-nT-.L 1n --,,, ' 1 .
