Presently it time to close the « scalp forward, adjusted 26, 1872. and spelling-school;--these were what hs words would say if reported. © But below all these commonplaces there vibrajed something else. . . One can make love a great deal better when ong, doesn't speak of love. Words are 30 poor! Tones ind modulations-are better... It is an old story «hich had been ex § enough, and turned over the the book to the great words at we known to spellesg as " Incom- ensibility," and began to give out ose " words of eight syllables with the acéent on the sixth." Listless scholars now turned round, and ceased to whisper |in order to be in at the master's final {triomph. __ But to their surprise, "ole | Miss Meanses white nigger," es some of | them called her, in allusion to her slavish life, spslled these great words with as per- fect ease as the master. Still, not doubt- ingthe result, the Squire turned from place to place and selected all the hard words he could find. The school became utterly quiet, the excitement was too great for the that Whitefield could make an. audience weep by his way of pronouncing the word Mesopotamia. = A lover can: sound. the whole gamut of his affection in saying Good morning. The solemmest engage- ments ever made "have been without the intervention of speech. And you, my Gradgrind friend, yon think me sentimental. . Two: young fools | they were, walking so slowly. though the night was sharp, dallying under the trees, and dreaming of a heaven, they. could not, havo realined if all their wishes had been granted. Of course they. were fools! Either they were fools to be so happy, or else some other people are fools not to be. After all, dear Gradgrind, let them be.--- There's no harm init. They'll get trouble ordinary buzz.. Would " M Han- ner" beat the master! Beat the master that had laid out Jim Phillips?! Everybody's sympathy was now turned to Hannah.-- { Ralph noticed that even Shocky had de- serted him, and that his face grew bril- liant every time Hannah spelled a word. In fact, Ralph deserted himself. Ashe { saw the fine, timid face of the girl so long oppressed flush and shine with intertst as he looked at the rather low but broad and intelligent brow and the fresh white com- plexion, and saw the rich, womanly nature coming to the surface under the influence of applause and sympathy, he did not want to beat. If he had not felt that a victory given would insult her, he would have missed intentionally. The bull-dog, the stern, relentless setting of the will, had gone, he knew not whither. And there had come in its place, as he looked in that face, a something which he did not under- stand. You did not, gentle reader, the it came to you. Tha Squire was puzzled. He had given out all the hard words in the book. He again pulled the top of his head forward. Then he wiped his spectacles snd put them on. Then out of the depths of his pocket | he fished up a list of words just coming | into use in those days--words not in the spelling-book. ile regarded the paper at- tentively with his blue right eye. His black left: eye meanwhile fixed itself in such a stare on Mirandy Means that she shuddered and hid her eyes in her red silk handkerchief. > * Daguerreotype," It was Ralph's turn. "D-a-u, dag--="" " Next." | And Hannah spelled it right. Sach' a buzz followed that Detsey Short'y 'giggle could nét be heard, but Shocky shouted, "Hanner beat! my Hauner- spelled down the master!" And Ralph went over and congratulated her. And Dr. Small sat perfectly still in the corner. | And then the Squire called them to or< {der, and said: * As our friend Hanner | Thomson is the o:.ly one left on her side, | she will have to «pell against nearly all on t'other side. I «hall, therefore, take the | liberty of procrstinating the | of this interesting anid exacting contest un- | til to-morrow evening. - I hope our friend | Hanner may again carry off the cypress crown of glory. There is nothing better | for us than healthful and kind simulation." Dr. Small, who knew the road to prac- tice, escorted Mirandy, and Bud went home with somebody else. The others of 'the Means family hurried on, while Han- nah, the champion, stayed behind a" min- ute to speak to Bhocky. ' Perhaps it was becanse Ralph saw that Hannah must go alone that he suddenly remembered hav- ing left something which was of no conse- quence, and resolved to go round by Mr. Means' and got it. Another of Cupid's disguises, sniffed the Squire. 1obi OHAPTER V. 3 THE WALK HOME. You expect me to describe that walk. -- You have had enough of the Jack Mean- ses and the Squire Hawkinses, and the Pete Joneses, and the rest. You wish me to tell you now of this true-hearted girl and her lover; of how the silvery moon- beams came down in a shower--to use 'Whittier's favorite metaphor--through the maple boughs, flecking the frosen ground with light and shadow. You would have me tell of the evening star, not yet gome down, which shed its benediction on them. But I shall do no such thing. For the moon was not shining, neither did the stars give their light. The tall black trunks ~f the maples swayed and shook in the wir, which moaned their leafless oughs. ¥ Novelists always make lovers walk in the moonlight. But if love is not, as the cynics believe, all moonshine, it can at least make its own light. Maéon- light is never so little needed or heeded, never so much of an impertinence, as in'a love-scene. It was-at the bottom of the first hollow beyond the school-house that Ralph overtook the timid girl walking swiftly through the dark. He did not | tered, and then to give a poser or two which soon settled them. He let them run a little, as a cat does a doomed mouse. | There was now but one person left one the opposite side, and as she rose in her blue calilo dress," Ralph recognized Hannah, the bound girlat old Jack Means'. She had not attended the school in the district,and had never spelled in spelling-school before, and was chosen last as an uncertain quan- tity. The Squire began with easy words oF two syllables, from that page of Webster, 80 well known to all who ever thumbed it, ¢ Baker," from the word that stands st the top of the page. She spelled these | words in an absent and uninterested man- | ner. As everybody knew that she would have to go down as soon as this peeling ary skirmishing was over, "| ask p to walk with her. Love does not go by words, and there are times when conventionality is impossible. There are people who understand one another at once. When one Soul meets another, it is not by pass-word, nor by hailing sign, Ralph had admired and wondered at the quiet drudge. But it was when, in the unaccustomed 'sunshine of praise, she spread her wings a little, that he loved her. He had seen her awake. You, Miss Amelia, wish me to repeat. all their love-talk. I am afraid you'd find it dull. Love can pipe shrough any kind of s reed. Ralph talked love to Hannah gan to get ready to go heme, and 3 Hppleriy Fo » he spoke of the weather, of the crops, Weather, crops, ugh before ing. Let them enjoy the evening. 1 am not but these lovers whom we write down fools are the only wise people afterall. . Is it not wise to be happy? Let them alone. If yon da nat know how it is yourself, T pity you. For the first time in three years, for the first time since she had crossed the thres- hold of * Old Jack Means's" and como un- der the domination of Mrs. Old Jack Means, Hannah talked cheerfully, almost gaily. It was something to have a com- panion to talkito. It was something to be the victor ever in a spelling-match, and to be applauded ¢ven by Flat Creek. And 80, chatting earnestly about the most un~ interesting themes, Ralph courteously helped Hannah over the fence, and they took the usual short-cut through the blue- grass pasture. There came up' a little shower, hardly more than a sprinkle, but then it was so nice to have a shower just as they reached the box-alder tree by the spring! It was so thoughtful in Ralph to suggest that the shade of a box-alder is dense, and that Hannah might take "cold! And Hannah yielded to the suggestion. -- Just as though she had not milked the | cows in the open lot in the worst storms of | the last three years! And just as though the house were not within a stone's throw! Doubtless it 'was not prudent to stop there. But let us deal gently with thom. | Who would riot stay -in paradise ten min- utes longer, even though it did make pur- gatory the hotter afterward? And so Han- i stayed." "Tell me your circumstances," said Ralph, at'last. "I am sure I can help you in something." * No, no! you can not," and Haunah's face was clouded. " No one can help me. Only time and God. I must go, Mr. Hartsook." And they walked on to the front gate in silence and in some: con- straint. But still in happiness. As they came to the gate, Dr. Smal' pushed past them in his cool, deliberate way, and mounted his horse. Ralph bade Hannah good-night, having entirely for. gotten the errand which had been his ox. cuse to himsel! for coming out of his way. Ho hastened to his new home, the house of Mr. Pote Jones, the same who believed in the inseparableness of lickin' and larttin'," : "You're a purty gal, a'n't youl You air! Yes, you air!! and Mrs. Moans seemed so impressed with Hannal's pret- tiness that she choked on it, and could get no farther. "' A purty gal! you! 'Yes you air a purty gal!" and the old woman's voice rose till it eould have been heard half a mile. "To bé's santérin' along the > | big road after ten o'clock with the master! Who knows whether he's a fit man for any- body to go with? Arter all I'vé been and gono and done fer you! That's the way you pay me! You're a miéan, deceitful thing. Stuck up bekase you spelt the master down. Ketch me lettin' you go to spellin'-school to-morry night! Ketch wun! Yes, ketch ME, Faay!" ' Looky 'here, 'marm," said Bad, * it seems to me you're 'a makin' a blamed furss about nothin'. Don't yell 8's theyll hear you three or four mile. You'll have everybody 'tween here and Olifty waked up.". Forthe old'woman had got- ten so" excited over the idea of being caught allowing Hanngh to go to spelling- school that she had raised her last "Ketch me!" {0 a perfect whoop. "That's the way I'm treated," whimpered the old wo- man, who knew how fo take the * injured- "That's the way Pm treated. You allers take sides with that air hussy agin your own flesh and blood. You don't keer how much trouble I have. Not you. . Not a dog-on'd bit. I may be disgraced by that air ongrateful critter, and you set right here in my own house and sass me about it. A purty fellow you air! An' me a del- vin' and a drudgin' for you *all my born days. A purty son, a'n't you?" Bud did not say another word. He sat in the chimney-corner and whistled " Dan- dy Jim from Caroline." His diversion had had the he sought. For while his tender- mother poured her broadside into his iron-clad feelings, Han- nah had sli up the stairs to her garret bed-room, and when the old woman turn- od from the callous Bud to finish her as sault upon the sensitive girl, she could only gnash her teeth in disappointment. Stung by the insults to which she could not grow insensible, Hannah laid awake until the memory of that walk through the darkness came into her soul like a bene- diction. The harsh voice of the ogre died out, and the gentle and courteous voice of Hartsook filled her soul. She recalled piece by piece the whole conversation-- all the commonplace remarks about the weather; all the insignificant remarks the crops; all the unimportant the spelling-school, Not for the sake of the remarks. Not for the sake of the weather. Not for the sake of the ectops. Not for the sske of the spelling-school,-- innocence" dodge as well as anybody. --. But for the sake of the undertone. And then she travelled back over the three thrés years to come, and fed her heart en the dim hope of rebuilding in some form the home that had been so happy. - And she prayed with more faith than ever be- fore, for deliverance. For love brings faith. Somewhere on in the sleepless night she stood at the window, - The moon wae shining now, and there was the path through the pasture, and. there was the y box-alder. She sat there a long time. Then she saw some one come-over the fence and walk to the tree, and then on toward Pete Jones's. Who could it be! She thought she redognized the figure. But she was chilled and shivering; and she erept back again into bed, and dreamed, not of the uncertain days to come, but of the blessed days that were past--of a father and a mother and a brother in a happy home. -- But somehow the school-master was thers too, CHAPTER VIL. A NIGHT AT PETE JONES. When Ralph got to Pete Jones's ho found that sinister-looking individual in the act of kicking one {of his many dogse out of the house. " Come in, stranger, come in.' You'll find this 'ere house full of brats, butl guess you kin kick your way around among 'em. Take a cheer. Here,git out! go to thunder with you!" And with these mild imperatives he boxed one of his boys ovgr in one dir@tion and one of his girls over in the other. "I believe in trainin' up children to mind when they're spoke to," he said to' Ralph apologetically. Bat it seemed to the teacher that he wanted them to mind just a little before they were apoken to. . "Praps you'd like bed. Well, just climb up the ladder on the outside of the house. Takes up a thunderin' sight of room to have a stairs inside, and we ha'n't got no room to spare. © You'll find a bed in the furdest corner. My Pete's already got half of it; and you can take t'other half. Ef Pete goes to takin' his half in the middle, and trying to make you take yourn on both sides, just kick him." "In this comfortless bed ""in the furdest corner," Ralph found sleep out of the question. Pete took three fourths of the bed, and Hannah took all his thoughts. -- So ho lay, and looked otit through the cracks in the *'clapboards" (as they call rough shingles in the old West) at the stars. For the clouds had now broken away. . And he lay thus recounting to himself, as a miser counts the pieces that compose his hoard, every step of that road from the time he had overtaken Hannah in the hollow to the fence. Then he im- agined again the pleasure of helping her over, and then he retraced the ground to the box-alder tree at the spring, and re- peated to himself the conversation until he came to the part in which she said that 3nly time and God could help her. What did she mean? What was the hidden part of her life! What was the connection be- tween her and Shocky! Hours wore on, and still the mind of Ralph Hartsook went back and traveled the same road, over the fence, past the box-alder, up to the inexplicable part the conversation, and stood ' with the same puzzling fivestions the bound girl's life. At last he got up, drew on fd sat down on the top of down over the blue-grass heli y on the border between the of Jones and the land of Means. Iw earth was white with could not sleep. dei, fe enable him to sleep. And once determin- od on walking, he did not hesitate a mo- ment as to the direction in which he should walk. The blue-grass pasture (was it not like unto the garden of Eden) lay right before him. That box-alder (was i not a tree of lifel) stood just in sight. To spring over the fenco and take the path down the hill and over the brook was so quickly done aa decided upon. To stand again un- der the box-alder, to climb again over the farther fence, and to walk down the road toward the school-house, was so easy and so delightful that it was done without Hough For Ralph was a man full of elan, who, when he saw no wrong in any- thing that proposed itself, was apt to fol low his impulse without deliberation.-- And this keeping company with the stars, and the memory of a delightful walk, were so0_much better than the Fist Creek life, that he threw himself into his night excursion with enthusiasm: At last ho stood in "the little hollow where first he had joined himself to Han- nah. Tt was the very spot at which Shocky, toe, had met him a few mornings before. He leaned against the fence and tried to solve again the puzzle of Hannah's troubles. For that she had troubles he did not doubt. Neither did he doubt that he could help her if he could discover what they were, But he had no clue. All at onee his heart stood still. He heard the thud of horses' hoofs coming down the road. Until that moment he had not felt his own loneliness. He shrank back further into the fence-corner. The horsemen were galloping. These were three of them, and there was one figure that seemed familiar to Ralph. But he could not tell who it was. Neither conld he remember having seen the horse, which was a sorrel with a white left forefoot and a white nose. The men noticed him and reined up little. Why he should have been startled by the presence of these men he could not tell, but an indefinable dread seized him. stood still shivering with a nervous fear. The cold seemed to have gotten into his bones, He remembered that the whole re- | about clothes, ladder, pasture: years of her bondage and forward over the | of a colony with such noxious seed! ~ Before Ralph 'was ite Bi heard the hoofs of another hosts 4 upon the hard ground in an The rider was Dr. Small.
