Hla original occupation waa that of a

There were fire beeidea myself. There
waa a atracgo bond of eytnpathy be
tween na all not one of na kuew any
thing of our parents. One knew an
aunt, another an uncle, a third a grand
mother, or a grandfather, or a guard
Ian, but no father or mother.
It waa a peculiarity of Mr. Porter's
establishment that bo did not take boya
who bad parents. Hla adTertlaemetit In
the newspapers ran thua: "The Reter

phan boya from tho earliest ago. Un
exceptional references aa to piety and
discretion will be given. N. B. No hol
idays. ' It la not my Intention to linger upon
thia period, or enter Into any minute de
scriptions of our uninteresting, monoton
ous life. Tho years crept on, and were
almost wholly passed within tha pre
cincts of Tabernacle House. It waa a
flue, old-fashioned dwelling. It bad large
gaidens back and front tho latter be
ing screened from tha road by a high
wall besidea an extensiro orchard and
a paddock. Altogether, it waa quits a
gentleman'a house. But rents aro won
derfully low In these parts. Mr. Por
ter waa rery well-to-do. Hia boarders
alone brought him In a respectable In
come; hia chapel waa well attended; and
he numbered many of tho moat prosper
pna Mawworms of tha town among his
congregation, to one of whom a Mrs.
Humphries this house belonged.
By and by there were changes. One
boy left, and then another; but others
took their places. Grim-looking persona
came to take them sway; but, except in
one case, we know nothing of their fu
ture destiny or destination, and they
dropped out of our Urea completely. It
seemed ss though we were Interlopers
upon the world, and ought never to bare
been born.
' The exceptional case I mention waa
that of a boy named Josiah Cook, whom
Mr. Porter had transferred from hla
care to that of a printer in the town, sa
an apprentice. I little thought that
Cook's transference to Bury would so
materially influence my own future life
that out of that event would spring an
Incident destined to abape Its whole fa
tore course.
There waa one large room at the top
f the bouse, in which we alx boya slept,
two in each of the three beda. Cook
waa my bed fellow, and wa were fast
friends and companions. He waa a bold,
venturesome boy, and on the last night
of hia aojourn amongst us he proposed
tho daring plan of some night paying na
a secret visit and relating all the 'ad
ventures" be should experience in hia
aew home.
"I can easily climb over the garden
wall from the next field," he aald; "so
look out, boya; if you hear a atone
thrown np at your window, it will be
Be."
Six mourns paasoa away ana we
beard nothing more of Cook, lit waa
rapidly fading out of our thoughts, when,
one autumnal night we heard a sharp
crack at our bedroom window. Tho bold
est of pur number gently lifted tha sash,
and peered out It waa a bright moon
light night, and he aaw, standing in the
garden beneath, tho well-known figure
of our old companion.
The back of the house was covered
with a fine old pear tree. It had not
been pruned for several years, ai.d had
thrown out its wood somewhat wildly. A
few whispered words, and Cook waa
mounting tha tree with hand and foot,
almost as easily as though he had been
ascending a ladder. When he clamber
ed Into the room we all gathered round
him In a sort of awe-struck manner.
"Now, look here, boya." he aald; "what
in yon think has brought mo her to-

thaa wa did about tho Temple of Wis.
except that tho Roe. Obadiah eccaalonal

tured to quote to our tempter.

Wo shivered with affright at tho terms
applied by thia daring renegade to the
Rev. Obadiah and hla daughter. Tho
power of tho strong mind over tho weak
er la well known. We were fatuously
weak mere puppets la tho hands of thia

He produced two colna from hla pock

tried to get out of It; bat such waa
the Irresistible Influence that Cook oxer
claed over na that we had no power te
struggle against hla will, and I felt my
self compelled to acquiesce In hla pro
posal that I ahonld hold myself ready
any night that I heard a pebble thrown
against tha window to arise, dress my
self, descend Into tho garden and make
for the theater. The cold perspiration
started from every pore at the thought;
but with a trembling voice, I promised,
for all that
Shaking handa with na all round, and
reminding mo once more of my appoint
ment with threats of vengeance if I fail
ed, thia wonderful phenomenon scrambled
out of window, and In a few seconds we
heard him thud upon the ground be
neath. Friday evening camo. Eight o'clock
waa our hour for bed. It so happeued
that oa that particular night Mr. Porter
hurried na away rather earlier than
usual.
Crack! There ho was! My heart leap
ed Into my month, and I could scarcely
repress a cry. so excitedly nervous had I
become. I gently opened the window and
looked out There waa Joaiah, looking
up at me.
"Come on," I heard him whisper.
CHAPTER II.
How I managed to descend the tree
without falling I cannot understand; my
bauds and limba shook aa with a palsy,
and my heed swam aa with a deathly
sickness. When I reached the ground
I was so faint that Joaiah had to support
mo for several seconds. When I recov
ered, ho helped mo over tho garden wall.
Tho whole way. Joaiah never ceased
talking; but I waa too bewildered to heed
hla words. I waa ouly roused to atten
tion when, upon halting before an ex
tremely gloomy, solitary looking build
ing, my companion cried, "Hero wo are!"
Wa plunged down a narrow paxssge. Jo
aiah presented a amall alip of paper to
a man who stood behind a half-door, and
we entered tho pit of the theater.
It waa really a Hall of Dawllng Light
The play, I have since ascertained, waa
Shakspeare'a "Romeo and Juliet" Sit
ting in that little country theater, wit
nessing what waa, perhaps, only a third-
rate provincial performance, a new world
was opened to me the glorious world
of poetry and Imagination. I trembled
with a dated delight at tho soft beauty
of tho lovo scenes; my heart a welled with
kindred Ore at tho passionate outbursts;
and I sobbed at seeing the lovers die In
one another's arma. It waa no fiction to
me, but a reality, beautiful almost be
yond realisation, yet painful almost be
yond endurance.
When the curtain fell. I fell with It
from my Elysian heights. With a shiver
I awoke to the dull realisation of myaelf.
My first action waa to turn to Josiah,
and grasp hia hand In ailent gratitude.
I did not wish to aee any more; I
wished to get away now, to dream over
what I had seen. Josiah had to go be
hind tho scenes to get the proof ef tho
next night's bill, aad I waited outside
tho stage door until ho returned. In a
few momenta ha came out la a great
flurry.
"Look here. Silas." he said; "I can't
go back with you. I must get home -di
rectly, or there'll be an awful kick up.
Come along; I'll put you In tho road, so
that you can t miss your way."
I ahall never forget the sense of deso
lation that fell upon me when I found
myself alone in the street All tbo direc
tiona Josiah had given me vanished in
an instant from my memory, and I stood
helpless, not knowing which way to turn.
I waa in the outskirts of tbo town, It waa
nearly eleven o'clock, and not a eool waa
about I walked straight on, fervently
hoping that it might be In the right direc
tion.
Finally I waa In the middle of a long
street one aide of which waa occupied
by ordinary houses, but that on which
I found myself waa distinguished by
line of vaat gloomy looking buildings,
turreted walla hung with Ivy, and broken
ruins. I felt awe-struck at tho mighty
piles of masonry that towered above ma,
I was standing right before an archway
of a grand Norman tower. I walked tim
idly beneath Its black, vaulted roof, te
the Iron gate at its further and, and peer
ed at the Una of crumbling ruins that
rose among the trees and shrubs, white
and ghastly, In the moonlight
As I stood thus, I beard a rustle.
Chilled with a sense of fear. I turned
quickly round. Through a rent In tha
wall, many yards above my head, came
a broad ray of white light, as 1 turned,
it was falling upon an object that fasci
oated my gaxa. It was tha head and
face ef a boaaUfuJ gtrt, bat aw r? so
