J . If
Driving along a country road, since
I had not watered my steel horse
that Is, put water in my radiator tank
for some time, I looked out for a
ylace to flu it. I came presently to a
farmhouse where a girl sat on a porch.
I saw a well house on the grounds and,
pulling up at the gate, asked her if she
would permit me to flu my tank. She
hesitated, then said:
"You'll have to draw the water your
self." "Of course I'll draw it myself. Why
did you think I would expect you to
do it?"
"I wouldn't if I were you."
"Wouldn't what?"
"Draw the water."
I looked at her curiously. She was
dressed in white and black. There was
a marked sadness in her visage.
"Whv do vou advise me not to draw
khe water?" I asked.
"Because a face will look up at you
out of the well that will freeze the
marrow in your bones."
It was evident to me that her mind
was unhinged, but I was curious and
encouraged her to tell me more about
the face in the weU. She hesitated a
moment, then said:
"I had a brother. He and father
didn't get on well at all. It seemed to
me that the reason was that Ben came
when father was passing into old age.
"One evening father was lecturing
Ben, reproaching him for the trouble
lie gave. I was sitting in my room by
the window. I heard high words be
tween them, and then I saw in the
gloaming Ben run out over the ground.
It was nearly dark, and I could see him
only as far as the well house. Father
followed him there. The last I saw of
them father's hand was raised to strike.
I covered my face with my hands, and
that is the last I knew of anything for
a week.
"When I returned to consciousness I
knew that father had killed Ben and
thrown him down the well."
She paused and shuddered.
"How do you know your father did
that ?"
"Oh, I know it, I know it !"
She manifested such emotion that I
gave her time to recover from it. When
she had done so, she continued:
"I felt what had been done, though 1
said nothing of it to any one. They
told me Ben had gone away. As soon
as I was able I went to the well. I
dreaded to look down Into it, but I
couldn't help doing so. I approached
and put my hands on the stone coping
and remained In that position till I
could bring myself to look down at the
water below.
"I gave a shriek and fell to the
ground. They all came running out of
the house and carried nie back to bed."
"What frightened you?"
"I saw Ken's face down in the well."
I needed no further Information ns to
Ihe cause and nature of the gill's trou
ble. I did not try to assist her out of
her malady, but, going to the well,
drew a bucket of water, tilled my tank
and, having thanked her, got into my
car and drove away. -
I found It Impossible to get this girl
out of my mind. A desire took posses
sion of me to cure her ailment. Later
1 drove back to the place and got the
balance of her story from her neigh
bors. Her father and her brother had
really had trouble. The hoy had fled,
and the futher had followed him. The
father returned to the house, but the
boy had never been seen there since.
It occurrH to me that the way to
cure the girl whs to llnd the boy. I
learned Ills name, but to find any Indl-
