ihe-turned the key» and even in the gioon^

shaken by passionate, suppressed sobs,while

So they stood ia this close embrace-beside their sleeping child, until Nora's t&ars
were stayed; and, shrinking from her husband's anas, she went to her baby's,, bed
■and laid one hard upon his pillow.
"I have been dreaming. I must; have
heen dreaming in the darkness. O n&y hus-
oand, tell me—what is true ? "
Frightened a little by her maimer, he
.old her as quietly and simply as hs could,
feno^ing well that this agony of repetition
was unnecessary, because she had looked
witb hi 1 upon his son's dead face, and had
repealed, in this same awed tons-, the doc-

w I—I can not understand," she faltered,
hev eyes sb pitifully wide and eager.
"Yet it was you who kne^r it first, my
iarling," Wynter Sutton whispered, cover-
ing1 his own eyes. "Your cry was our
only preparation for the awful truth. Yoii

" Ko one else. Tour cry gave the first

"ilio-ht have heen saved!" repeated
Kora. with strange suppressed vehemence

Korah quietly, still standing oppose

"Perhaps so," returned the ybunjj man
absently; "but later on, when Ikyncdds
