A THRILLING STORY.
.The folio wins: storv we takafrom that
jnjeresting? gok, ' fPayley's ' Thousand
and Une otones. it is founded upon
an occurrence which actually took place
in Vermont some forty years ago. The
facts are .almost literally related as fol
lows: ' - 'w-
My brother Heman liked the business
of carrying the mail better than I did,
and so l went to workin anew Rearing,
I had commenced about a mile and a half
from home, and not' quite :so far from
the house of a brother-in-law. I used
to stay as often at one place as the other.
It was a bad arrangement, as, in case of
accident, neither family would be ajarmed
or go to look for me if I should not
come homo.;' I felt the fotee of this in
the course of the winter as you will see
directly.
There had been one of ourroldifash
ioned Northern New York snows, crusted
-over ha?d enough to bear a-man. -1 was
getting on famously with my clearing,
getting ready to build 9 Ijquse- in? the
spring. I was ambitious"andvworked
early and. late; going without my dinner
some days, when the piece of bread and
meat I had brought, in f my, pocket was
frozen so hard that'I could'not masticate
it without faking up too much of my
time..." One day ! it was intensely cold,
with prospect of a storm, that might
hinder my work the, next day, and so I
worked on as long as I could see, and
after twilight I felled a tree, which, in
its descent, lodged against another. rl
could not bear the idea of leaving" the
job half finished, and mounted the al
most prostrate body to cut away a limb
to let it down. ":
The bole of the tree forked, about
forty feet up, into two equal parts, with
large projecting limbs from both. It
was one of ,these I had to? cut away to
bring it to the ground. ' In my haste,
perhaps I was not so careful as I should
havbeeh) at . sny! rate, the first blows
eased the lodgment so that the1 tree be-
-ganailcjuidy as.just gojng,. to
jump off, when the fork split, and as it
did 6,SJne' foot dropped into the space,
so that I could not extricate it for the
nTbiiient$ but 1 felt" no ilarm,; for I knew
that I -cc-uld cut away hc tree in .a min
"ute, of perhSpsdraw my foot out of the
boot, as the pressure was not severe.
At the first blow of the, axe the tree took
another start, rolled - oyerl and the split
closed -with all the force " of its giant
strength, crushing my foot till the very
bones were flattened, and" there ! hun"
suspended, jusi able to touch the tips of
my lingers in the snow, with nothing to
rest upon for a moment th&air at zero
and growing colder no -prospect of
any one coming that way that night :
the nearest house a mile . away no
friends to feel alarmed at my absence, for
one ' would suppose mer safe with the
other. , f (x , .. j..t . . y .'.i
'My'aic in" Its 'fall rested upon the
snow crust, about ten feet ofF.i-If I
could only get that, I might yet save
myself. I did not think how I was to
cut myself; lose from the body of that
grt; tree, suspended -as J was, head
down, and' suffering with the rushing
current of .. disordered " blood, but I
thought in that - keen ; blade my only
hope of life ,was lixed. - Just forward of
me -grew a slim bush, which I thought
if I could' obtain, I could form into a
hook by twisting the limbs together, and
draw the axe-within my reaeh:-;j3 j?a
Although the bush was out of -my
reach I at last succeeded in getting hold
of it by means of a loop made by tying
my suspenders together. I drew it
toward me k nd I cut h. off withmy
pocket "knife one of that sort so long
known as "Barlow knives," having a
single blade about two and a half inches
long andthree eighths of .anjnch wide,
with .Eqttaksridth all its lengthset in' a
handle of peculiar form, half, its length
iron, and half horn or bone; I suc
ceeded admirably in fashioning my
hook and almost felt the handle of the
axewithin my grasp, so pertain was I of
success' 'From the tree that imprisoned
me the ground descended rapidly for. a
dozen rods or more to a little creek. My
axe lay upon the brow of the hill. The
first movement I made toward twisting
the loop of my stick around the handle,
so as to draw .it within my reach, loos
ened it from ' its icy rest, and . away it
went down the hill, crushing through the
little frost brittle bushes down upon the
ice of the creek, down to a little fall a
few rods below, and over -that into the
unfrozen pool, with a. surging sound, as
it fell into the water, that seemed to
send its icy chill through every vein and
artery in my whole body.
I still had my knife. True, it -was a
rough surgical instrument, but liope and
the love of life gave me strength to climb
up my iastened leg, and cut away the
leg, and
boot and stocking, and then with that
knife I unjointed my ankle and fell to
the ground my left leg a footless bleed
ing stump! The intensity of the cold
saved me from bleeding to death. 1
tore off a part of my coat, and with hand
kcrcheif and suspenders managed to bind
up hty leg'ith a handful "of snow,'and
started to crawl home. I succeeded in
reaching within Bight of the, houseand
then-strength utterly failed me. fe A'
I tried my voice in vain, but. I could
make no one hear. I exerted' myself
once more, and 'crawled toward the road
that I' knew" 'Hemah must come.It
was a painful task, for, besides my ex
haustion, I was perishing with cold. -Just
then -If heard the ' sound of jmy
brother's stage horn, and the jingle of
the bells coming' down the hill. I
strained my voice to the utmost pitch,
but he did not, could hot hear; but there
was another friend man's faithful friend
who did hear.' Old Hunter, the, no
ble dog, had insisted upon accompanying
him this trip, and brother said, "Let
him go; who knows what grtod may come
of at?" r Good did come of it for his ear
was quicker than Heman's, and he roused
up at the first cry, and as the second cry
reached his ear he leaped out, and in a
minute was at the spot :where I lay upon
the snow. , He smelt all around and I
held up my footless leg. Just then the
sleigh had got up the hill; Hunter
sprang back into the path, barked loudly,
and, as the horses came up, he jumped
up, seized the reins, and would not let go
till Heman called a halt.. . , , .
Hunter let go his hold on the horses,
jumped backed to the sleigh, caught
hold of Heman s hand, pulyng on s the
mitten, and way he ran buck where I was,
and commenced barking furiously; but I
heard nothing. The effect upon me when ;
knew that I was discoveied by that;
faithful old deg, and that he never would
desert me nor cease Tiis efforts' until' he
had obtained help, had caused me to
faint. My brother knew that Hunt was
not at play4-tbai something curious was
the matterr-r-and he jumped out of the
sleigh and ran after him.
In a little while I was safe at home;
the doctor was sent for, and my wound 1
properly dress. I eventually recovered,
but was, however, a cripple for life. 1
