Lights gleamed out o'er all the hillsides, Men were out from far and near Searching each ravine and thicket ; While the mother, wi!d with fear, Waiting, listened for the signal, - Frantic paced the cottage floor, Doubting, hoping, sobbing, praying rftirant this mercy, just one more;" Searched they round tlie stately fir-tree, Through the tajngled thickeU broke ; Searched beneath tlie laurel branches; Searched the tui!re groves t f oak. What is this, thigjattered garment Stained and spotted here with red? And the choking father answers, "iler's", the only words he said. Through the thickets, 'cross the w heat field, Clambering up the mountain side, Where they feared some gloomy canyon Might e'en now, her body hide : Trailing then along the ridges f the crested mountain peak, Where the bare rock sloeth downward For a dreary hundred feet . On the cliffs aliove t';e river. Where the father shut his eyes earful let some slipping foot-print Should betoken where she lies. Thus thev searched throughout the darkness All that fearful Christmas-eve; Searched until the stars above them Seemed with dull, dim eyes to grieve; Searched until the morning sunbeams Sent a ropy Hood on earth, Almost riva'ling that in glory Which shone at the Savior's birth : But the first bright slanting sunbeam Which foil on the father's face Showed to him the form and feature Of his sleeping daughter Grace. And he clasped her to his bosom, Pressed a kiss upon her cheek ; And his thoughts went up to heaven For the words he could cot speak : "lie, who was born in the manger And ascenfled, undefiled. Surely, He led safe through danger, - Kept this night my sightles-child." Gkorqr II. Wrxox, Brockway, Ore, 4 HOLIDAY Of All Kinds AT 5. K. SYKES'. BOSWELL SPRINGS! nnnni a. rnirvTv nDPnnv !
