On one side there was a gap iijf the wooden rails of the fence. That gap opened out upon several empty corner lots, rocky in places, and gave an uninterrupted view of the ghastly undertaker's emblem by the side* of that func- tionary's * dwelling, diagonally across on the next street. Timothv could not see it this evening, ft was too dark. But he knew it was there, and the knowledge somehow was uncomfortable. A more agreeable object of con- templation presented itself in the row of buildings before him, the row which represented a portion of his possessions. But his mind seemed determined to take a new course this evening. His thoughts, starting from the row of buildings, began to travel backward over the buried long ago—well, he would j know it!

Tbfe day had been sultry and he had walk- ed about a great deal in the bmsy marts of commerce down town and «i the »un. He had a headache and it made him cross. But after Berth* had gotten Wm Tils iupper, and he had no appetite for it, these novel phenomena made him pensive instead. He went out in hie back yard and sat down on aa overturned brvrrol and began to breath* the evening air. It was heavy and ing the moonlight, so that the night was rather dark. But at that moment the orb shone forth with a sudden silvery splendor, and Timothy distinctly saw some one —something —dart rapidly across the yard. Now, Timothy had well nigh forgotten the occurrence of that other memorable night. For a few dayc (though he had never tolerat- ed \an allusion fci it from Bertha, edan aUusioii t i t , after that one moment of horror stricken abandon) he had been haunted with an abiding terror, which wry now and then tent tha cold perspiration running down his back.
