The boy proffered his services, and

After Uncle Pete had bceti hustled
out to the dining hall by the irrc
prcssablo Dick, who went with him to
eco that ho should ba slighted in no
wise, and who sat at the table with
the good old fellow plying him with
questions so fast that the latter was
often compelled to sit with fork or
spoon poised half way between his
plate and mouth, we repaired to the
sitting room above and thero had a
long talk with our newly arrived
friend. Ho told us all about tlio old
home, tho neighbors, the hones, tho
dogs and with such hearty good will
that wc had little to do more than to
listen. Through him camo the tend-
ercst of messages fiom our mothers,
and a roll of bills from our fathers
this latter, however being unnecessary
as each of us had still tho greater
part of the money with which w had
been supplied while at Cincinnati.
But just as wo thought Uncle Pete
was ready to stop and broathc a while,
ho stnrtlcl us with tho following bit
of information:
'Well, Mars. Bill, T specs I bcttah
tako a littlo res' an' try to git a nap,
so as to feci fresh in de mo'nin' as I
has somo impo'tan' business to look
aftah." Now tho idea of Uncle Pete
having anything to attend to other
than visiting our two worthy selves
had not entered our minds, and the
reader may judge of our surprise whn,
in response to the question propound-'
ed -UyViL9itUUUsr.tously ae to what
that business could be, Miou fallow
leaned grandly back in his chair, cd
justed his shirt co'lar, brushed the
knees of his new Kentucky jeans
trousers, broke forth as follows.
"Well, Mars. Bill an' Mars. Dick,
did you ncbah hcah tall ob two little
boys 'way down in Gcorgy whoso mas
tali solo one to dem bad men down on
de Bed rivah an' lef do oddah poo'
little fellah a cryin' his eyes out be
oaso do man wouldn't buy 'cut boaf ?
Well, dat littlo boy dat git sole
growed up to be a man, an' shortly bo
fo' de wah made a break fo' liberty,
followed dc norf star till he dun foun
hissclf over hcah in Cannaduh, sah
under do queen's protection. During
fifteen long ycals I neber hcah ono
brcsscd wohd from dat boy, and not
until a fow days ago did I know dat
ho was still dis side of do ribcr Jor
ding, 1 had took a lot of cattle fo'
olo Mars. Willoughby an Mars Nailor
down to Now Orleans to sell, an while
dull a gon'lcman say to me: Is you do
boy Mistah Willoughby bought from
mo in Nashville, ease ho was a cryin
his eyes out sinco his littlo brodah
gon' away?
I j is busted out an' cried liko a boy,
I did, an' do man ho don stood dah an
puled out his handcrchicf an' wipo do
big tealis from his eyes. By an by I
brush do tenhs out my ayes, an' said
to do gcn'lcman; O, Mars. Littlo am
dis you or am'it yo' ghos' dat look mo
in do fane? Ho den wid do tears rol
lin down his cheeks, frowed bof his
atnhs aroun' mo nu' say: yes Pete my
boy, I is yo' olo Mars. Little, on'
can jo forgib mo. Pete, as I hope tie
Lawd hab don' dis ten yvahs ago?
But I felt wicked an' said to do man:
yes sah, I will if yo' will f. jb mo back
my brodah, Bah.
Dan do gon'Uman cried as if his
Jefferson Morgan."
This being itttlcd, wo now retired
for the night and, altera good night's
rest, awoko in the morning to find the
rain pouring down, which continued
the whole day long and far into the
following night. To better reconcile
Uncle Pete, I told him that 1 would
ndverliso in tho Old Dominion, the
paper I was on, and that it would not
be long until wo should find his b:o It
er. But Uncle Pete was not the man
to sit down and wait for others to
bung his brother in, and so set about
finding him for himself. But as days
and days came and went with no tid
ings troni 1 nomas JclUrsoii, I'nclc
Pete became restless, and sometimes
almost out of spirit. To keep hint
from yielding to his feelings, I would
ask him to accompany mo both day
and night as I went the rounds gath
ering news for the paper. I told tho
dear old fellow that I got on so much
better to have him along to point out
this and that inoident that otherwise
might escape my notice. Occasional
ly I would have him tako an opposite
direction and meat me at a half way-
place around the stiuarc. On all of
theso little excursions I would pro
vide him with note book and penoil
so that he might make a memorandum
of such things that would go to fill up
thcncws columns in my paper. Some
times Uncle Pcto would walk by my
side with head erect, shoulders well
thrown back, and with steady meas
ured step look tho very picture of
some noble statesman except that he
had a skin as black as 'night.
Then of evenings Dick would bc-
guilo the good old man into long and
interesting discussions of tho olden
days, and finally gave him to under
stand that one day not very remote
there was going to be a wedding party
leave a little town down in Ohio that
and wc entered, ilnrc wc sat await
ing the coining of Mr. Thomas Jcf
fulfil Morgan. Sr.
Wo kept talking to Uncle Peto and
in that wuy ptctcUcd 1 i tit from malt
iig a bold dash through the door
lending iu'.o another rioiu, po eager
was ho to inert the gMiliiMiiaii of the
house, and ilaiiti him fur his long lest
brother.
Wc had not waited more than a
couple of minutes (and yet those min
utes eccuicd hours to our excited
mind.-) until the lad returned nciotn
panicd by his father. To attempt a
liscription of this mooting would bo n
vain attempt indeed; for no sooner
did these two middle aged men meet
and stand faco to faco than the recog
nition seemed to be mutually enjoyed
by them They folded each other in
their strong arms and wept like wo
men. Finally their feelings subdued to
that degree that enabled them to com
mand their voices and, Uncle Pete do
siring to apply a test of their brother
hood, called out in earnest tones:
"Tako off yo' boot Jefferson, an if
yo' be dc littlo Jeff what was, den
dahs a scar cu dc bottom ob yo' left
foot clah acroES."
Mr. Thoman Jefferson Morgan to
put the tiucstion forever at rest, horc
complied with Unclo Pete's request
and soon displayed the scar as perfect
in its outlines as when first the
wounded member had been healed.
This settling the question of broth
erhood of these gentlemen of color,
Dick and I took our lcavo in order
that they might be unrestrained in
their new found joy.
Bui when the accustomed hour tor
our social gathering at our hotel camo
round again wo found uncle Pete set
tling his bill with the clerk. '-What
now, Unole Pete?" enquired Dick.

Your friend,
Hutu Bi.oo.Mr.it "
Mv own Hear HiciiAtiti: I now
write thco to say to theo that I am,
of all women, tho most happy. If
thec could only know what a darling
thy mother is, and how she has com
pletely turned tho scales In our favor
by her honest exposition of what bIio
calls thy good and bid traits, thee
would love her even more dearly than
thee docs, if that were possible.
Now everything has been made so
clear to uncle and aunt thpt they, 1
presume, have removed their objoi
lions to thco freely corresponding
with mo. I am moro than glad that
thco has had thy rough experiences
of the past few months, for by and
through such experiences thco has be
come more deeply impressed with the
thought of tho importance of correct
living. 1 do not upbrail thec for the
part thec acted in that bloodless af
fair near your old home, but I do pray
that thco may never again feel called
upon to violato the laws of thy coun
try fcimply to gratify thy feelings of
manly eouragc. Now, my dear Dick,
(Heaven forgive mo if I have sinned
through calling thec Dick) there can
be no reason why I should ever fear
to trust thec in the future; and that 1
can and do even now trust thee in 'he
fullest sense of the term, thco must
feci assured. But as I am busy to-day
doing up a bonnet for dear old aunty
Whitfield, nho is too poor to hire such
work done, I cannot woll devote more
time at present to the very delightful
task of writing to my own darling
Dick, (there, God forgivo mo again)
and will therefore say good bye my
best beloved. Kvcr yours,
Naomi.

Peto and I were walking along the
street together, Dick going to tho
collcgo and i to my daily woik on the
paper, wo were brought to n sud
den stop by Uncle Pete turning right
about faco and calling out to a cogro
lad of some twelve years to "stop dah
jib a minit, honey till I ax you a tiucs

at the samo time as though astouished
at so sudden an iutcruption,
Unclo Pcto broke in with: "well

solo way down on Bed Bibah yea's an'

Tho boy was now most thouroughly
confused and for tho moment stood
spccchlets. But Unclo Pete being
equally confused m bin idoas as to
how the boy should show tio changes,
such as time and worry produco upon
tho human body, and yet intent on
claiming the lad for his lost brother,
held tho lad firmly yet lovingly in his
groat hand and repeated now slowly
as if wandering in a dream: "yes dis
