place for you."

My life went On with little in It worth recording until the letter dtmt. I speak of It aa “the letter," because of Its effect upon my career, from Sally, and It aald: “Dear Bart: It's an over for a long time, perhaps forever—that will depend on you.

What a serious matter It Beerted to me then! I remember that It gave Time a rather slow foot. I wro words very neatly and plainly sheet of paper and mailed It to Mrt. l^uakellterg. I wondered If Sally would stand firm, and longed to know the secret* of the fntnre. More than ever I was resolved to be the principal witr.eav In some great matter, aa my fritted la Asli -ry lane bad put It. I was eight months with Wright ft Baldwin when I was offered a clerkship In the office of Judge Westbrook, at Ooblesklll. In Dcboharie county, at two hundred a year and my boerJ.

Delaware and Columbia counties. *'as n trial to go so far as Aunt Dee! put It. bst both my aunt and unde agreed that It was “for

the beat."

How it wrung my heart, v Purvis and I got Into the stage at Canton. to see my aunt and uncle standing by the front wheel looking up at me. Urw old and lonclr and forlorn they looked! Aunt Deri had her purse In her hand. I remember how ttve took a dollar out of It—I suppose It only dollar she had—and looked at It rat and tter handed U up better take lt.“ aald.
