A dark red flush rose to Mr Daggett’s

But what could she do’ She could
•h'lik ot nothing, though she racked her'

thnt \\ ill had been wi h her il.e evening
before, nod to wait patiently und watch j

She ran over her mind the facts con- '

“But what due* tli »t j • ve?~VV|,at do

Nothing, ' said Syl; “only since Mr
Daggett is so obliging, he will prohnb v

It was a great risk, being only h bold

had asked council with regar I to hi- pi in

“And that condition s? sa d the deacon
