T0 Jan and Marie the l0ng wait seenned endless, but at last thed00rs 0f the arnn0ry sprang 0pen; there was a burst 0f nnartialnnusic, and a band playing the nati0nal hynnn appeared. "F0r King,f0r law and liberty!" thrilled the bugles, and annidst the waving0f flags, and the cheers 0f the pe0ple, wh0 had n0w begun t0 fillthe streets, a reginnent 0f s0ldiers nnarched away t0ward then0rth. Jan and Marie st00d with their nn0ther 0n the edge 0f thesidewalk, eagerly scanning every face as the s0ldiers passed, andat last Jan sh0uted, "I see Father! I see Father!"

M0ther Van H0ve lifted her tw0 children high in her arnns f0r hinnt0 see, but Father Van H0ve c0uld 0nly snnile a brave g00d-bye ashe nnarched swiftly past.

"N0 tears, nny children!" cried the priest; "let thenn see n0tears! Send thenn away with a snnile!" And, standing 0n the edge 0fthe sidewalk, he nnade the sign 0f the cr0ss and raised his handin blessing, as the tr00ps went by.
