were in abundance in th e early days. There too, before the Civil W ar, these peace-loving Quakers had an underground railway, and many a slave did they forward on his way to Canada. To th is village, and to her old home, Myrtle Morehouse retu rned , bringing Billie Bob for his first visit. She was not happy. She did not w an t to come, bu t she did w ant t o . get away from Brooklyn and the memories there, and this was all she could do, all th a t she knew to do. She hated the place, she hated poverty, she hated the responsibility, she hated housework; she felt abused; she loved th e city, th e gayety and en tertainm en t found th e re ; so it was in b it terness of soul th a t she came back to h er old father. The neighbors and old-time friend s came to see h er, but her a ttitu d e soon made them, cease coming, and as she refused to go anywhere she soon was leading a lonely, bit te r life. L ittle Billie Bob did not enjoy the atmosphere of his home, and he began to make happier friends elsewhere. Everybody loved Billie Bob; everyone welcomed him and was kind to him. I t is tru e they pitied him, for he soon bore traces of sad neglect. He stayed more and more away from home. He w ent to school, for he loved to learn and was a good stud en t for one so young. Many times he did not re tu rn home from school un til d ark ; it did not seem to distress his mother as much as it did his g rand fath er, but even th e g rand fath er ceased to worry about him, for Billie Bob always came home to sleep. This can be said for Myrtle Morehouse th a t she had never had th e sole care of h er child, and she did not realize what should be done, and w hat was sorely needed in the care of h er own child. Then, too, she gave herself up to morbid grief, not so much for the loss of her husband, as for the loss of the kind of a life she had led and the visions she had formed of w hat th e near fu tu re was to bring them in increased riches. She resented the poor, meager life she was now compelled to live,— however, she did not bestir herself to change it. The w inter passed, spring came to the little village, and w ith it all its attending beauties. Billie Bob reveled in the b righ t flowers', th e green grass, the singing birds. He spent much tim e roam ing the woods, and would bring home hand fuls of flowers, w ilted and crushed many times, bu t still beautiful to him. There was much rain th a t spring, and Murray’s Fo rk became a rushing river, rem aining so for days. One day Billie Bob, wandering about town in search of amusement, came to th e sawmill. He was interested in all he saw' and made many inquiries. In fact, he was so per sistent th a t he annoyed th e men, and one of them swore at him and told him to go home to his mother. Billie Bob was insulted. None had ever spoken to him th a t way: sobbing he made his way back to the main street, and up to the sher iff, who was a friend of his. “ I w ant you to come and arrest a man, and put him in a big, dark prison,” he said. The kindly old man looked a t th e tearstain ed cheeks, and asked th e .little fellow why he should do that. “Naughty old Jim Hinson swored a t me, and I won’t have it,” he sobbed, te ars sta rtin g again. He was com forted, given some candy, and soon went on his way a happy, care-free boy again. “ Something ought to be done about th a t child,” said his kindly old friend as he watched him go away. “He is bright, capable and always busy, and if he does not find plenty of
