"Little gal, I'm an ole man, and I

and I caln't be no more use to y'u. I
want t' go home, and if y'u'll holp me
ontie this yere harness " and he
grinned as he viewed hia bonds In the
fuller light of the open road.
Then hoof-beaU thumped the soft
earth of another of the trails that
converged at this point, and Ardmore
and Collins flashed out upon Jerry
and her captive, amid a wild panic of
horses.
'Appleweight twisted and turned In
his saddle but Jerry Instantly held up
her hand and arrested the Inquiries
of her deliverers.
"Mr. Ardmore, this gentleman was
most rudely set upon by two strangers
aa he was leaving a church over there
somewhere In the woods. I was lost,
and as his appearance at the time and
place seemed almost providential, I
begged him to guide me toward home,
which he has most courteously done,"
and Jerry, to give the proper touch
to her explanation, twitched the strap
by which she held her prisoner's
horse, so that it danced, adding a
fresh absurdity to the wobbling figure
of its bound rider.
"You are safe!" cried Ardmore in a
low tone, to which Jerry nodded care
lessly, in a way that directed atten
tion to the more immediate business
at hand. He was not at once Bure of
his cue, but there seemed to be some
thing famlllur in the outlines of the
man on horseback, and full identifica
tion broke upon him now with as
tounding vividness.
"Jugs," he began, addressing the
prisoner smilingly, "dear old Jugs, to
think we should meet again! Since
you handed me the Jug on the rear
end of the train, a few nights ago, life
baa had new meanings for me, and
I'm Just as sorry as can be that I gave
you the buttermilk. 1 wouldn't titivo
done such a thing for billions In real
money. And now that you have fallen
into the excellent hands of Miss Dan
gerfleld "
"Dangerfleld!" screamed the prig
oner, lilting himself as high in the
saddle as his bonds would permit.
"Certainly," replied Ardmore. "Your
rescuer Is none other than Mlsu Ger
aldlne Dangerfleld."
"Why. gal," began the outlaw, "ef
your pa's the guv'nor of No'th Caro
line, him an' nie'a old frien's."
"Then will you kindly tell me your
name?" asked Jerry.
"Allow me to complete the intro
duction," interrupted Collins, who hnd
hung back In silence. "Unless my
eyes deceive me, which is wholly Jm
probable, this is a gentleman whom I
once interviewed in the county Jail
at Kalelgh, and be was known at that
time as William Appleweight, alias
Poteet."
"You air right," admitted the pris
oner without hesitation, and then, ad
dressing Jerry: "Yer pa would be
glad to know his dorter had helped an
ole frlen' like me, gal. Ye may hev
heard blm speak o' me."
"Hut how about that message in
the cork of tiie Jug you put on the
i
y ij"f
train at Klldare?" demanded Ard
more. "And why did you send your
brother to try to scare me to death at
Raleigh?"
"That is not of the slightest impor
tance," Interrupted Jerry, gently play
ing with the tether which held Mr.
Appleweight; "nor does it matter that
papa and this gentleman are friends.
If this is indeed the famous outlaw,
Mr. William Appleweight, then, papa
or no pupa, friend or no friend, he is
a prisoner of the state of North Caro
lina." "Prls'ner!" bawled Appleweight
"an you the guv'nor'a gal "
"You have hit tho situation exactly,
Mr. Appleweight; Bnd aa far as the
office of governor is concerned, It is
capably filled by the young gentleman
on your left, Mr. Thomas Ardmore.
Let us now adjourn to his house,
where, if I am not mistaken, a bit of
cold fowl In unually to be found on
the sideboard at this hour. But hold"
and Jerry checked her horse
"where can we lodge this gentleman,
Mr. Ardmore, until we decide upon
his further fate?"
"We might put him In the wine col
lar," suggested ArdmcTre.
,"He shall be treated with the great
est consideration," said Jerry, and
thereafter, no further adventure bo
falling them, they reached Ardsley,
where their arrival occasioned the
greatest excitement.
CHAPTER XIV.
A Meeting of Old Friends.
Habersham's men had proved ex
ceedingly timid when it came to the
business of threshing the woods for
Appleweight, whom they regarded
with a new awe, now that he had van
ished so mysteriously. They had
searched tho woods guardedly, but the
nnrrow paths that led away into the
dim fastnesses of Ardsley were for
bidding, and these men were not with
out their superstitions. They had
awaited for years an opportunity to
strike at the Appleweight faction;
they had at Inst taken their shot, and
had seemingly brought down their
bird; but their lack of spirit in re
trieving the game had been their un
doing. They had only aroused their
most formidable enemy, who would
undoubtedly loso no time in seeking
revenge. They were a dolorous band
who, after warily beating tho woods,
dispersed In the small hours of the
morning, having found nothing but
Applewelghfa wool hat, which only
added to their mystification. .
"Wo ought to have taken him away
on the run," said Habersham bitterly,
as he and Grlswold discussed the mat
ter on tho veranda of the prosecutor's
house and watched the coming of the
dawn. "I didn't realize that those fel
lows lived In such mortal terror of the
old man; but they refused to make off
with him until the hist of his friends
hnd got well out of the way. 1 ought
to have had more sense myself than
to have expected the old fox to sit
tied up like a culf ready for market.
We had all his friends accounted for
those that weren't at pruyer meet
ing were marked down somewhere
else, and we had a line flung pretty
well round the church. Applewelghfa
deliverance must have come from
somewhere Inside the Ardmore prop
erty. Perhaps the game warden picked
LI in up."
"Perhaps tho Indians captured
him," suggested Grlswold, yawning,
"or maybe some Martian tamo down
on a parachute aiid hauled him up.
Or, as scarlet fever la raging at Mr.
Ardniore'a castle," and hla tone waa
icy "Appleweight waa probably
seized all of a sudden, and broke
away in hla delirium. Let's go to bed."
At eight o'clock he and Habersham
roda into Turner Court House, and
Grlswold went at once to the inn to
change hla clothes. No further steps
could be taken until some definite re
port waa received as to .....vlevrelght's
whereabouts.
It had been the moat puerile trans
action possible, and he waa aware
that a report of It, which he must wire
at once to Mlsa Ilarlmra Osborne,
would not impress thnt young woman
with hla capacity or trustworthiness
in difficult occasions. The Iron that
had already entered Into his soul drove
deeper. He had ordered a fresh horse,
and was resolved to return to Mount
Nebo church for, a personal study of
the ground In broad daylight.
Aa he crossed the musty parlor of
the little hotel, to hla great astonish
ment Miss Osborne's black Phoebe,
stationed where her eyes ranged the
whole lower floor of tho Inn, drew at
tentlon to herself In an elaborate
courtesy.
"Miss Barb'ra wish me f say she
done come heah on buslnosa, and she
like fo' to see yo' all right away. She
done bring huh raddle, and war
a-gwine rldln' twell you come back.
She's a gettln' ready, and I'll go tell
huh you done come. She got a heap
o' trouble, thet young missis, so she
hev," and the black woman's pursed
lips aeemed to imply that Prof. Grls
wold was in some measure respon
sible for Miss Osborne's difficulties.
As he stared out Into the street a
negro brought a horse bearing a bet
ter saddle than Mingo county hnd
ever boasted, and hitched It near the
horse he had secured for himself. An
Instant later he heard a quick step
above, and Miss Osborne, sedately
followed by the black woman, came
downstairs. She smiled and greeted
him cordially, but there was trouble
in her brown eyes.
"I didn't warn you of my coming. I
didn't want to be a nuisance to you;
there's a new a most unaccountable
perplexity. It doesn't seem right to
burden you with it you have already
been so kind about helping me; but I
dare not turn to our oldest frlenda
I have been afraid to trust father's
frlenda at all since Mr. Boaworth act
ed so traitorously."
"My time is entirely at your service,
Miss Osborne; but I have a shameful J
report to make of myself. I niuBt tell
you how miserably I have failed, be
fore you trust me any further. We
that la to say, the prosecuting attor
ney of this county and a party he got
together of Applewelghfa enemies
caught the outlaw last night took him
with the greatest ease but he got
away from us! It was all my fault,
and I'm deeply disgusted with my
self!" He described the capture and the
subsequent mysterious disappearance
of Appleweight, and confessed the
obvious necessity for great caution In
further attempts to take the outlaw,
now that he waa on guard, rtarbara
laughed reassuringly at the end of the
story.
"Those men must have felt funny
when they went hack to get tho pris
oner and found that he had gone up
into tho sir. But there's a new fea
ture of tho case that's more serious
than the lose of this man " and the
troublo again possessed her eyea. She
drew from her purse a cutting from
a newspaper and handed It to him.
"That's from last night's Columbia
Vidotte, which is very hostile to my
father."
He was already running over the
heavily leaded column that set forth
without equivocation the fact that
Gov. Osborne had not been in Colum
bia since he went to New Orleans. It
scouted the story that he was abroad
in the state on official business con
nected with the Appleweight case
tho yarn which Grlswold had forced
upon the friendly reporter at the tele
graph office In Columbia. The gov
ernor of a state, the Vldette went on
to elaborate, could not vanish without
leaving some trace of himself, and a
Vldette representative had traced the
steps of Gov. Osborne from New Or
leans until he had again entered South
Carolina under cover of night and for
purposes which, for the honor of the
state, the Vldette hesitated to dis
close. The writer of the article had ex
hausted the possibilities of gentle
suggestion and vague Innuendo in an
effort to create an impression of mys
tery and to pique curiosity as to
further developmenta, which were
promised at any hour. Grlswold'a
wrath was aroused, not so much
against the newspaper, which he as
sumed had some flro for its smother
ed trifle of amoke, but against the
governor of South Carolina himself,
who was causing the finest and noblest
girl In the world Infinite anxiety and
pain.
"Tho thing Is preposterous," he snld
lightly. "The Idea that your father
would attempt to enter his own state
surreptitiously is inconceivable in
these days when public men are de
nied all privacy, and when It's any
man's right to deceive the press If he
finds it essential to hla own comfort
and peace; but tho intimation that
your father ia in South Carolina for
any dishonornhle purpose ia prepos
terous. One thing, however, is cer
tuln, Miss Osborne, and that is that
wo must produce your father at the
earliest posslblo moment.-'
"Put" and Barbara hesitated, and
her eyes, near tears as they were,
wrought grent havoc in Grlswold'a
soul "but father must not bo found
until this Appleweight matter ia set
tled. You understand without muking
me speak the words that he might
not exactly view the matter aa we
do."
It was a painful subject; and the
fact that she wns driven by sheer
force of circumstances to appeal to
him, a stranger, to aid her to perform
a pub'Ic service In her father's name
rallied all his good impulses to her
standard. It was too delicate a nint
ter for discussion: it was n thing to
bo Ignored; and ho assumed at once
a lighter tone.
"Come! We must solve the rlddlo
of the lust prisoner at once, and your
father will undoubtedly give an ex
cellent account of himself when he
gets ready. Meanwhile the fiction
that he is personally carrying the
war into tho Appleweight country
must be maintained, and I shall step
to the railway station und wire the
Columbia newspaper in his name that
he Is In Mingo county on the trail of
the outlaws."

The one prominent ob

IT 18 of especial interest
to read thla brief sketch
of hia life which Mr.
Lincoln himself wrote
for publication when he
was pitted against Ste
phen A. Douglas, for
Senator In Illinois In
1858.
"I was born February 13, 1809, in
Harding county, Kentucky. My parents
were both born in Virginia, of undis
tinguished families Becond families,
perhaps I should say. My mother, who
died in my tenth year, waa of a family
of the name of Hanks, some of whom
now reside in Adams, and others in
Macon county, Illinois. My paternal
grandfather, Abraham Lincoln, emi
grated from Kocklnghain county, Vir
ginia, to Kentucky, about 1781 or 1782,
where, a year or two later, he was
killed by Indiana, not in battle, but
by stealth, when he waa laboring to
open a farm in the forest. His ances
tors, who were Quakers, went to Vir
ginia from Berks county, Pennsylvania.
An effort to Identify them with the
New England family of the same name

similarity of Christian names in
both families, such as Enoch, Ivi,

erward learned to bear the loss of
thousands in battle more bravely than
he bore the loss of this one in the
beginning o' the contest. But the loss

as bo often aho vn in bis action upon
the Judgment of courts martial.
After, the repulse of Fredericksburg
he is reported to have said: "If there
la a man out of hell that suffers more
than I do, I pity him."
In the "Anecdotea of Abraham Lin
coln" it is related that during the war
a lady belonging to a prominent Ken
tucky family visited Washington to
beg for her son's pardon, who was
then in prison under sentence of death
for belonging to a band of guerrillas
who had committed many murders and
outrages. With the mother was her
daughter, a beautiful young lady, who
waa an accomplished musician. Mr.
Lincoln received the visitor in hia
usual kindly manner and the mother
mnde known the object of her visit.
There were probably extenuating
circumstances in favor of the rebel
prisoner, and while the president seem
ed to be deeply pondering the young
lady moved to the piano near by, and,
taking a sent, commenced to sing
"Gentle Annie," a sweet and pathetic
ballad, which before the war was a
familiar song in almost every house
hold in the union, and Is not yet en
ther, was but six years of age, and he
grew up literally, without education.
He removed from Kentucky to what
Is now Spencer county, Indiana, in my
eighth year. We reached our new
home about the time the state came
into the Union. It waa a wild region,
with many bears and other game ani
mals still id the woods. There I grow
up. There were some schools, to-called,
but no qualification waa required
for a teacher beyond readln', wrltln'
and clpherln' to the rule of three. If
a straggler, supposed to understand
Latin, happened to sojourn in the
neighborhood, ho waa looked upon aa
a wizard. There was absolutely noth
ing to excite ambition for educatlou.
"Of course, when I came of age I did
not know much. Still, aomehow, I
could read, write and cipher to the
rule of three, but that was all. I have
not been to school since. The little
advance I now have upon thla store
of education I have picked up from
time to time under the pressure of ne
cessity. "I waa raised to farm work, which
I continued till I waa 22. At tl I
came to Illinois and passed the first
year in Macon county. Then I got to
New Salem, at that time In Sangamon,
now Menard county, where I remained

tirely forgotten, for that matter. It ia
to be presumed that the young lady
sang the song with more plantiveness
and more effect than Old Abe bad
ever heard it in Springfield.
During the song he arose from his
aeat, crossed the room to a window in
the westward, through which he gazed
for several minutes with that "sad, far
away look" which has so often been
noted as one of his peculiarities. Hla
memory, no doubt, went back to the
daya of his humble life on the banks
of the Sangamon, and with visions of
old Salem and its rustic store came
a picture of the "Gentle Annie" of hla
youth, whose ashes had rested for
many long yeara under the wild flow
era and brambles of the old rural bury
ing ground, but whose spirit then, per
haps, guided him to the aide of mercy.
Then wiping his eyes, he advanced
quickly to the desk, wrote a brief note,
which he handed to the lady, and in
formed her that it waa the pardon she
sought.
Not Hla Kind of Religion.
I am not much of a Judge of relig
ion, but, in my opinion, the religion
that sets men to rebel and fight
against their government, because, as
they think, the government does not
sufficiently help some men to eat
their bread In the sweat of other
men's faces, la not the sort of religion
upon which people can get to heaven.
Memorandum, Dec. 3, 1864.
Then came tho Black Hawk war, and
I was selected as captain of volun
teers, a success which gave me nioro
pleasure than any I have had since. I
went through the campaign, waa
elated, ran for the legislature the same
year (1832) and waa beaten the only
time I have ever beeu beaten by the
people. The next and three auccetni

moved to Springfield to practice it.
"In 1846 I waa once elected to the
lower house of congress. Was not a

to 1854, both inclusive, practised law
more assiduously than ever before. Al

on the Whig electoral ticket, making
active canvasses. I was losing inter

Missouri compromise aroused me
again. What I have done since theo

A well-known educator of Boston
found a way to keep the brain and
the body in that harmonious co-operation
which makes a joy of living.
' "Two years ago," she writes, "being
in a condition of nervous exhaustion,
I resigned my position as teacher,
which I had held for over 40 years.
