however, an liistunce. aud it seems to
lie tolerably well authenticated, aud
materialists will hardly know how to
«■ count for it. Here is the story. It
is of the Yorkshire dales aud of u good
many years ago.
A clergyman whose duty lay in that
wild country, where a strong race of
men ami women lived principally on
b.icoii and oatcake, used to ride or
walk to visit the people. He had been
raising a subscription in a time of
scarcity and had to be out late at night.
One evening on his outward Journey
he suddenly became aware of a figure
moving beside him, and in the gloam
ing he recognized his brother, who bad

awestruck for words, and after keep
ing by his side for some distance over
the lonely moor the figure disappear-
ed. He noted the time and the vision,
but nothing occurred to throw any light
upon it.
However, some years after he had
taken the duty at a Jail in another part
of the country one of the prisoners ly
ing under sentence desired to make a
confession. After telling him of a lot
of crimes he said: “1 wor very near
once taking your life. sir. It was in
that bad year, and I heerd as how you
went carrying money about in those
lonesome dales. I hid behind the big
bowlders of the brown moor. I snw
you coming up aud waited till you
should be near enough, but that night
you were uot alone."
This is a startling tale and the
stronger because the vision or what
ever it was was seen by two people.
The anecdote occurs in an article twen
ty years ago in Macmillan’s Magazine
by Lady Veruey.

The site of Iranlstan. with its Moor
ish towers and minarets, was engraved
upon the letterheads of P. T. Barnum
and was the one thing which attracted
Jenny Lind when he wrote seeking to
engage her for an American tour. In
fact, she confessed that it was this pic
ture that determined her coming to
America.
Jenny Lind contracted to come to
America in 1849, the “Swedish Night
ingale” agreeing to sing at 150 concerts
for $25,000, all traveling expenses paid.
After she arrived in America Jenny
Lind asked Mr. Barnum when and
where he bad beard her sing, and upon
receiving the answer that be had never
had the pleasure of seeing her before
in his life, she asked, “How did you
risk so much money on a person whom
you never beard sing?”
“I risked it,” gallantly answered Mr.
Barnum, “on your angelic character
and reputation, feeling that you would
please the American public.”
Then began a campaign of advertis
ing to prepare the people for the ap-
penrance of Jenny Lind. Two hundred
dollars was offered as a prize for an
ode entitled “A Greeting to America,”
to be sung by Jenny Lind, and the
award was won by Bayard Taylor. No
singer who has ever appeared In the
country has secured more enthusiastic
welcome than Jenny Lind, all because
of the genius of P. T. Barnum.—Joe
