A she coald not prove her innocence, and circumstances bein against her, the community were divided in their oniuiom in rezard i'i ber guilt. It came about that the tcofamilic.,the Tbrndalla and die ilinots. who had Here tifore beeu quite intimate, did not speak 4 ti each other even, an J the MiuoU h came almost rancorous in their enmity toward the Uandalls.

Poor Maria in c Htsqumcc was cinstraincd to give up the little clas of which she was so proud, and ia which e was so much interested. This ring, and the circarmtiitces con nected it ith its loss did not alone bring about this unfortunate tite of affnirs. It was the first cause, to le sere, but old family jealousies cmpped out, social, party and religion differences became more sharply denned, all of which added fuel to the vicious little t3.troe. Maria crew thin and pale, and Mie re ceived so many slights from old friends and acquaintances that her parents were lorced to hasten h-t ttrpxrtnre to a dis tant State where she was to vUit her grandfather. The miserable tnwb'e did n t abate with her eHBg a war. There were lilenty of people, as there is in every community. to keep the fire burning.

They were Ixtilt of thick walls of stone masonry from twenty to one hundred feet high, aad divided fnm. the outside lands by moats filled with water.
