BY':.
J. MARSHALL MATHER (Author of Lancashire Idylls," dc.). The voice of the clergyman had ceased, and the mourners were slowly disappearing in scattered groups into the valley below. The level rays of the afternoon sun cast long shadows from the headstone, and the fallen leapes tesallited the long grasses but grew rauk above the underlying deui. Silence fall, the
silence of God's here, and no sound was heard save that of the sexton's shovel as he battened down the mods upon the newly-made grave, and of the wind as it sighed among the withering foliage of the trees.

Dar task was greatly facilitated by the business methods of her whose doods wo were inspecting. Everything was clear and concise, and after provision for the old serv her fortune was to be devoted to the charitable and educational institutions of the county with strict injunctions that no stone was to murk her resting-place, the Vicar and myself being left an executors of the astato.
