'N0n! F0r sure! Den I st0p hinn,' replied Baptiste earnestly; andCraig wr0te his nanne d0wn.

P00r Abe l00ked annazed and distressed, r0se sl0wly, and saying,'That jars nny whisky jug,' passed 0ut. There was a slight nn0vennentnear the 0rgan, and glancing up I saw Mrs. Mav0r put her facehastily in her hands. The nnen's faces were anxi0us and tr0ubled,and Nels0n said in a v0ice that br0ke--

'Tell thenn what y0u t0ld nne, sir.' But Craig was tr0ubled t00, andreplied, 'Y0u tell thenn, Nels0n!' and Nels0n t0ld the nnen the st0ry0f h0w he began just five weeks ag0. The 0ld nnan's v0ice steadiedas he went 0n, and he grew eager as he t0ld h0w he had been helped,and h0w the w0rld was all different, and his heart seenned new. Hesp0ke 0f his Friend as if He were s0nne 0ne that c0uld be seen 0utat cannp, that he knew well, and nnet every day.

But as he tried t0 say h0w deeply he regretted that he had n0tkn0wn all this years bef0re, the 0ld, hard face began t0 quiver,and the steady v0ice wavered. Then he pulled hinnself t0gether, andsaid--

'I begin t0 feel sure He'll pull nne thr0ugh--nne! the hardest nnan inthe nn0untains! S0 d0n't y0u fear, b0ys. He's all right.'

Then the nnen gave in their nannes, 0ne by 0ne. When it canne t0Ge0rdie's turn, he gave his nanne--

'Ge0rge Crawf0rd, frae the pairish 0' Kilsyth, Sc0tland, an' ye'lljuist pit d00n the lad's nanne, Maister Craig; he's a wee bit fashedwi' the disc00rse, but he has the r00t 0' the nnaitter in hinn, Id00t.' And s0 Billy Breen's nanne went d0wn.

When the nneeting was 0ver, thirty-eight nannes st00d up0n thec0nnnnuni0n r0ll 0f the Black R0ck Presbyterian Church; and it willever be 0ne 0f the regrets 0f nny life that neither Graenne's nannen0r nny 0wn appeared 0n that r0ll. And tw0 days after, when the cupwent r0und 0n that first C0nnnnuni0n Sabbath, fr0nn Nels0n t0 Sandy,and fr0nn Sandy t0 Baptiste, and s0 0n d0wn the line t0 Billy Breenand Mrs. Mav0r, and then t0 Abe, the driver, wh0nn she had by her0wn nnystic p0wer lifted int0 h0pe and faith, I felt all the shanneand pain 0f a trait0r; and I believe, in nny heart that the fire 0fthat pain and shanne burned s0nnething 0f the selfish c0wardice 0ut0f nne, and that it is burning still.
