Miss Hildreth. r|{»rrkt Prescott flpofford in "Our Confinant. M J (Conclude«!. ) Ha wondered If, Indeed, he was the hero of there dreams, If he had erer been ao happy- The first parting, the first, catrange me It. wrunar bis heart anew, as If they had happened only yesteiday. What a foolish thing their little quarrel looked like to-day, I ny the light of years aud knowledge such a trifle, but with such large results ! 7 a he bad been the flrst to make an orer tuward reconciliation, thank (iod ! If lure bIiu accepted hie overtures she was to write &a t say so; hut no word had come to him in ,eply. What days and hours of dark sus pense lifted their shadows before him; how ttie world had seemed bleak and unprofit able without her I Aud in a season of. weak when his wounded heart could bear uo more, he had accepted the sympathy comfort nearest at hand,and had Anally mar ked Le tty Carsw, because she loved him. only to wake up one day to And that he owed til his happiness to her. Miss Hildreth bad indeed answered him, hod given Letty the letter to mall—they Lad been Intimate irlenda In thoee days, intrusted with each nthei '* heart-beats—and Letty had detain the missive that would have healed t breach. How did he know this? Tears niter it tumbled out of a drawer of old let ters, und confronted him with its familiar address. Miss Carew thought she hod se cured herself for all time by burning Prue 1 * letter, but she hod tossed the wrong en velope into the grate. Austin Miller had jived hiß sorrow over again after this dis covery; he had waked with it and wrested with it without getting nearer happiness, und Lad long ago tnude up his mind to do without it. But he had thought it due to Prudence Hildreth to send her word that hy an accident her letter hod come to hand five years too late; he said nothing of Letty 's share in the matter, but Pru der.ee understood all. These memories lia i been revived by Prue'* hasty note ask ing him to forgive the children for breaking up the pea hen's nest ! lier children, too I He was at the point of carrying the note to lii* lips, when his eyes fell upon his sermon, "The Mistakes of Christians," and lest this should be one of them, he threw It into the ste basket. He looked at the clock; he hud been idle two whole hours. "Of what wu*lie thinking?" he asked himself; "where wss he drifting f an anointed preist, the ex. |.le and counsellor of sinners!" At least in could go and thank Prue with u clear conscience; as for the children, they were already in bed, technically apc-.klog, and jiavlug such a capital pillow tight that they agreed to get into mischief every day of tin Ir lives and be punished. Alter that Mr. Miller often found himself dropping in, on one pretext or another, at The Kims; to ask Miss Prue to play air of some new psalmody that he might join in the congregational stuping, to lend in r the lutest volume of religious thought; to beg advice about the children. Some times he came bringing those unruly In fant», with their brown bands full of pea • mrk fet there and their hearts full of impeni tence. They and the peacock were now the iss* of friends; lie ale from their hand aud < iolDi ed their petting, which was much like punishment, with heroism, It he stayed away il* y hunted him out and brought him home i'. triumph. ' Those children might as well live here," Mill Jane. "And their father, too," added John. "Not a bit of sweetbread can I keep in the lurder; and when they tears their frocks they goes straight to Miss Prue, and she i i uds them before Bridget scolds 'em, just *» if they'd be her very own." "A flue stepmother she'd be making," nl) served John. "They do be saying iu the Ml luge that it's her cap she Is setting for the n< b*i ami t*d over the I'*« That If just the way of the gosaljw. If a man take* to a woman it's always she that 1- a setting of her cap (or hlin. The ought to ask 'em to pick out a wife for him and suit themselves." •Ami then there'* others who say it's her *y," persisted John, who like, a fair his torian, was bound to state both sides, *'au' tint he came here a-purpose to marry her." A great deal they kuows about It," cried "I heerd him tell her, with my own • <1 cars, that, when he was culled to till« '• re parish he never dreamed that she lived liei r. 'Iheynmsthev knowed each other, when they was young «fore Miss luto her great-uncle's property, .une to live at the Elms; for I hear 'em ntr now and they of folks that doi.'t be lurcubouts. And she ssys, 'Do you •tuber we went hither aud the day we went you!' And be says,'I remember, I remember/ and looks away from her face. 1 thinks, myself, he must have been an old beau of hers. I sees 'em together a heap, you know, bringing In the tea tilings, and tbs lamps, and puttering 'round—" "At the keyhole," laughed John. "And I've never found 'em love making nnct, though I steps quiet like, John, as you know, and It isn't like opening a door to push the portiere aside." It is true the Miller children were a great deal at The Elms, and gave their father irMjuent excuse to follow them; and it Is true there were few congenial souls In the parish or village, and what so natural as tiiat he should see more or less oi his plvasaut neighbor, with whom he could journey hack to the past. Indeed, they never talked of to-day or to-morrow; it was always yesterday whose praises they sang, whose skies they extolled, whose pleasures they coveted, lie was nothing like a lover, lobe sure, except ln preferring her society, an«] yet It was a happiness to Prue mm; him there, to know that he would come to morrow. It was tow ard night, and summer day, that Miss Prue looking out on the lawn, where the shadows of the h aves were dancing, saw Mr. Miller— ho unusual sight—coming toward her door. He had been out of town a whole week on business; Bridget confided to Jane that he ''had gone away suddin, after a telegraph in ayaller wrupper come for him," but he had been at home several days without darken ing, or, U) express her feelings better,Ulumi »'utinir Miss Prue's door. Naturally, she womb-red what his errand had been; if he had had a call to leave the parish; and at that thought her heart stood still. "You have been away," she said after the tbel greetings. "Yes. I hope you did not suffer from "D invasion of young Millers during my ab lenee." "We met, but we missed you," she ad toitted. "I hope your vacation was a rest and recreation to you." "My journey was not a pleasure trip, p ruo," he said. "My wife died suddenly at the asylum the fifth of the month—" "lour wife I" gasped Miss Prue. "Your wife—died—on the fifth of the month ! I thought—Austin—Mr. Miller—I thought she had been dead years and years!" "I thought yon knew," he returned, supposed everybody had heard of it; It was too tad a story to rehearse often or need ijMly. It was in all the dallies at the,time. *°u must have been abroad then. Ao.y " a* in her cradle when Letty left me—eloped with her music teacher. Two years ago she w<:nt to the asylum, mad as Hamlet. Prue, Jruo," he cried, "do you think I have hidden uny thing from you ?" Is not the loss of 15 years of happiness enough ? Shall h* >• ghost divide us still !" "And I have been loving another woman's husband all this time," she said, moviug an ay from him. Heaven only knows how far her Puritan conscience would have car vied her, but just then Jane buret Into the voom, crying : "ft's little Tom Miller—the peacock fell lut.o the river, and Tom jumped in to save him—and the bird's safe—but Tom—the tramp took him—John's brought him up the bank—" And then Jane faintea away.
