You are right he said with his
head down It Is not for me to take
the bread out of my childs mouth She
shall choose for herself
Then he twisted about to where Gree
ba stood In silence behind his chair
Greeba he said with a world of
longing in his eyes my darling you
see how it is I am old and very poor
and heaven pity my blind folly I have
no home to offer you for I have none to
shelter my own head Dont fear for
me for I have no fear for myself 1

sorry race of my foolish life will soon
be over But you have made no mis
takes that merit my misfortunes So
choose my child choose It Is poverty
with me or plenty with your mother
Choose my child choose and let It be
quickly let it be quickly for wy old
heart Is bursting
Then the brave girl drew hersel
proudly up her brilliant eyes aflame
and her whole figure erect and quiver-
Choose she cried in a piercing
voice there Is no choice I will go
with my father and follow him over
the world though we have no covering
but the skies above us
And then Adam leapt from his chaL
to his feet and the infirmity of his
years seemedgone in an Instant and
his wet face shone with the radiance oi
a great joy Do you hear that you
people he cried Theres grace and
charity and unselfishness and love left
in the world still Thank heaven 1
have not yet to curse the day her body
brought forth children Come Greeba

Asher twisted about where he sat

rae said The girl is nothing to me
Sfae is nothing to any of us She has

except such as you made her to spend
ggb strangers She is no sister of

eCssoaeone who might have her Dont

Qreefeas eyes glistened but not a

titevgglingr hard to master the emotion
ctefc fDade his whole body to sway and

seed begging bread
He strode across to the door then
stopped and looked back to where his
sons stood together with the looks oi
whipped dogs
And you you unnatural sons he
cried I cast you out of my -mind 1
give you up to your laziness and yous
drunkenness and vain pleasures 1 am
going to one who Is not flesh of my
flesh and yet he is my son indeed
Again he made for the door ana
stopped on the threshold and faced
about towards his wife A for you
woman your time will come Remem
ber that Remember that
Greeba laid one hand softly on his
shoulder and said Come lather
come but again he looked back at hy
sons and said Farewell all of youl
Farewell You -will see me no more
May a clay like this that has come to
your father never never come to you
And then all his brave bearing his
grand strength broke down in a mo
ment and as the girl Inidhold of his
arm lest he should reel and fall lit
stumbled out at the threshold sobbing
beneath his breath Sunlocks my boy
Sunlocks I am coming to you I am
coming to vou
Chaise AKLilley followed them out
muttering In an under breath some deep
Imprecations that no one heeded
Strange said he the near I was to
crucifying the Lord afresh and swear
ing a mortal swear only I remembered
my catechism and the good John Wes
ley
At the gate to the road they met
Jason who was coming down from
Barrule with birds at his belt With
bewildered looks Jason stood and look-ed-at
them ay they came up a sorry
spectacle In the brightness of the
midday sun Old Adam himself strode
heavily along with his face turned
down and his white hair falling over
his cheeks By his side Greeba walked
bearing herself as proudly as she might
with her head thrown back and her wet
eyes trying to smile A pace or two be
hind came Chaise with his pony and
cart grunting hoarsely in his husky
throat Not a word of greeting did
they give to Jason and he asked for no
explanation for he saw it all after a
moment they being now homeless bad
drifted back to their old home and had
been turned away from It And not a
word of pity did he on his part dare
to offer them but in the true sympathy
of silence he stepped up to Adam and
TDat you shall gIve upraUcontroI of J gave him his strong arm to lean upon
atgjMW yffi ftfc3fa
T
- jr wtf JJtfcltiO
and then turned hlmslf about to 0
their way
-They took the road to Ramsey and
little was said by any of through
out the long two miles of the journey
save only by Chaise who never ceased
to mutter dark sayings to himself
whereof the chief were praises to God
for delivering them without loss of life
or limb or hand or even out of a den of
lions for thanks be to the Lord He
had drawn their teeth
Now though the world Is hard enough
on a good man in the hour of his trqu
ble there are ever more tender hearts
to compassionate his distresses than
bitter ones to triumph over his ad
versity and when Adam Falrbrother
came to Ramsey many a door was
thrown open to him by such as wre
-mindful of his former state and found
nothing In his present fall to merit
their resentment No hospitality would
he accept however but took up his
abode with Greeba In a little lodging in
the market place with Its face to the
cross and Its back toward the sea And
being safely housed there he thanked
Jason at the door for the help of his
strong arm and bade him come again
at 10 oclock that night if so be that
he was in the way of doing a last
service for a poor soul who might never
again have it In his power to repay
Ill come back at ten said Jason
simply and so he left them for the
present
And when he was gone Adam said to
Greeba as he turned indoors A fine
lad that and as simple as a child but
woe to the man who deceives him Ay
or to the woman either But youll nev
er do it girl Eh Never Never
Why father what can you mean
Are we not going away together said
Greeba
True child true said Adam and
so without further answer to her ques
tion twice repeated he passed with her
into the house
But Adam had his meaning as well aa
his reason for hiding It Through the
silent walk from Lague he had Te
volved their position and come to a
fixed resolution concerning it In c the
heat of his emotion it had lifted up
his heart that Greeba had chosen pov
erty with him before plenty with her
mother and her brothers but when his
passion had cooled he rebuked himself
for permitting her to do so What right
had he to drag her through the slough
of his own necessities He was for go
ing away not knowing the fate that
was before him but on what plea made
to his conscience dare he take her with
him He was old his life was behind
him and save herself he had no ties
What did it matter to him how his
struggles Bhould end But she was
young she was beautiful she might
form new friendships the world was
before her the world might yet be it
her feet and life so sweet and so sue
I and yet so good a thing withal v
ready and waiting for her
Once he thought of Michael Sunlocks
and that the arms that would be open
to himself in that distant land would
not be closed to Greeba And once be
thought of Jason and that to leave her
behVnd was to help the schemes that
woud bring them together But put 1
as ho would no farther could he get
than this that she must stay and In
must tfo alone
Yet knowing the btrength of her
purpose he concealed his intention and
his poor bewildered brain went about its
work ot preparation very artfully Ii
was Frjday and still not far past noon
when they reached their lodging by
the cross After a hasty meal he set
out into the town leaving Greeba to
rest for she had walked far since
early morning At the quay he in
quired the date of a vessel that called
thete on its passage from Ireland to
Iceland and to his surprise he found
that she was even then In the harbor
and would go out with the flrfet tde
of the next day which would flow at 1
oclock In the morning
u
Thereupon he engaged his berth and
paid for his passage It cost six pound
besides a daily charge of four shillings
for rations The trip was calculated
to last one month with fair wind and
weather such as then promised Adam
counted the rost -and saw that with
all present debts discharged and future
ones considered he might have some
thing between six and seven pounds in
his pocket when he set foot n Reyk
javik Being satisfied with this pros
pect he went to the High Bailiff for hi
license to leave the Island
Greeba had heard nothing of this
and as soon as night fell in she went up
to bed at her fathers entreaty Her
room was at the back of the house and
looked out over the sea and there she
saw the moon rise over the waters as
she undressed and laid down to sleep
Prompt to his hour Jason came and
then Adam told him all
I am going far away he said far
away Indeed into your own country I
go tonight though my daughter who
is asleep knows nothing of my Inten
tion Will you do me a service
iTrv me said Jason
And then Adam asked him to stay in
Ramsey over night that he might be
there when Greeba came down in the
morning to break the news to Iter that
her father had gone and to take her
back with him to Laguo
Thej will not say no to her seeing
her father is not with her and the
time is coming when she will hold ber
right to a share of all they have and
none ofthem dare withhold It
Jason who had been up to Lague
had heard of all that had passed there
and played his own part too though
he said nothing of that He was now
visibly agitated His calm strength had
left him His eyes were afire his face
twitched his hands trembled and he
wasVainly struggling to say what his
quivering llps refused to utted
Is there no other way he asked
V jjr
P
Must she go back to Lagut 1 there
no help for it7
None said Adam for she Is pen
niless God forgive me and beggara
may not be choosers
At that word Jason was unable to
support any longer the wild laboring of
his heart
Yes yes but there is a way he
cried for there Is one to whom she is
rich enough though ne Is poor himself
for he would give his lifes blood If so
be that he could buy her Many a day
he has seen all and stood aside and
been silent because afraid to speak
but he must speak now or never
Hearing this Adams face locked trou
bled and he answered
I will not misdoubt you my lad or
question whom you mean
And Jasons tongue being loosed at
that the hot words came from him like
a flood
I have been an idle fellow sir 1
know that good for nothing in the
world any more than the beasts of the
field and maybe its because Ive had
nobody but myself to work for but
give me the right to stand beside hex
and you shall see what I can do for no
brother shall return her cold looks for
her sweetness and never again shall
she go back where she will only be de
spised
You are a brave lad Jason said
Adam as best he could for the tears
that choked him and though I have
long hud other thoughts concerning her
yet could I trust her to your love ana
keeping and go my ways with con
tent But no no my lad it is not for
me to choose for her and neither is for
her to choose now
Pacified by that answer Jason gave
his promise freely faithfully to do what
Adam had askedof him And the night
being now well worn towards mldnisht
wlth the first bell of the vessel rung
and old Chaise fussing about In buny
preparation the time had come for
Adam to part from Greeba To bid her
farewell was impossible and to go away
without doing so was well nigh ah
hard All he could do was to look upon
her in her sleep and whisper his fare
well in his heart So he entered on tip
toe the room where she lay Softly the
moon shone through the window from
across the white sea and fell upon the
bed Pausing at the door he listened
for her breathing and at lat he heard
it for the night was very still and only
by the seas gentle plash on the beach
was the silence broken Treading soft
ly he approached the bedside and there
she lay and the quiet moonlight lay
over her the dear dear girl so brave
and happy hearted Her lips seemed
to smile perhaps she was dreaming
He must take his last look now Yet
no he must kiss her first He reached
across and lightly touched her pure
forehead with his lips Then she moved
md moaned in her sleep and then her
eaceful breathng came again Xow
eace bo with her Adam murmured
and the good hand to guard her of the
good Father of all
So Adam Falrbrother went his way
leaving Greeba behind him and early
the next morning Jason look her bacl
to Lague
