' A Memorial Visit By Dorothy Blackmore (Copyright, 1912, bv A;»ehm Literary “But, father,” Caroline protested, : “surely this is not a part of tho estate, this—this cemetery!” Col, Darling nodded his head. "YOI.' daughter, it is. 1 purchased the old Craft farm, as it was called, without ever having gone over the 200-0dd acres of its extent. The old home- stead has so excellent a site over- looking the water that 1 took the | acres I could not see pretty much for granted. Father and daughter stood in the arch made from the branches of two ancient hemlock trees that formed a gateway to a small and apparently abandoned cemetery.

Thus, it was little wonder that Col. Darling had overlooked it when he purchased the property of which it was a part. “I'm quite sure I shall never enjoy rambling in the grounds as [ had dreamed of doing,” Caroline Ia- mented, "ut, but, daughter, that is all non- sens { “Nonsgense to yoiu, perhaps, becanse | you're—well, moonlight wanderings, not given to Now—a girl you're The little plot gave evi-| % VERYTHING T0 BUILD A HOLS Largest Stock of Lumber in South Florida IT WILL PAY TO SEE US!

House party fol- lowed house party, and Caroline was | beginning to think that her father| had not done her such an injustice | after all in taking her from the gay lite of the city to plant her in the! midst of a 200-acre farm. fore had she realized the joy of being mistress of a real home and at liberty to extend unlimited hospitality. For, when Col. Darling had induced his motherless girl to comply with the desire of his own life to have a home in the country, he had promised her that she should have all the com- panionship she wanted, even if it be a continual round of entertalning. The end of May was upon them, and Caroline was the center of a happy group of friends from the city. They had been asked as guests over Decoration day and had planned the time-honored picnic of that day. “It seems too good to be true” cried one of the girls, “to think we are going on a real picnic on Memo- rial day” “Just as all the country lads and lassles do back in good old Jowa where I was a child,” added & young man with more than half seriousness in his expression. “All we can do to make It pre- sactly real,” laughed another pretty glirl, “is to go to some graverard and Never be- ‘ Foot of Main Street, City SERVICE RIGHT NOW 3 ¢ V4 4 W » OTTRRICTR ¢ Q,‘_‘;_;h'_ PR 35 ¢ i o % ling.

She sat beside her father, rock- ing back and forth in the balm) morning air and looking out ncm:s the velvet of the lawns, The tra- grance of apple blossoms was all about them, for the breezes came to them across the orchard. Presently around the turn of the winding gravel path that led to the main entrance of the farm there | came a young man, He walked brisk. | ly, and yet there was an expression of uncertainty in his carriage. As he approached the two he took | off his straw hat and addressed Col. Darling. “Is thls the old Craft farm—the | Lorado Craft farm?” he asked. “It is,” the colonel answered. “l! have recently bought it, What can I do for you, sir?” The young man smiled. “I am looking for the grave of my great- grandfather, and 1 was told that it was in a small cemetery that was| believed to be in the Craft property.” “Oh, father——" began Caroline, “It 1s,” interrupted the colonel. “At least there is such a place some- | liere hereabout.” “I know exactly where it is, father,” suggested Caroline. “Then you might try to tell us,”; the father replied. “Better than that, danghter, you might come with this voung man and me and we will see | it we can aid him in his search.” As the three sought the hemlock | 2rove the young man told them of his reason for secking £o remote a grave. | | His grandmother, recently deceased, hid begged it of him as a final re- | quest that he find the burying place of her father and care for it. She herself had been unable to do so, and after much effort the young man had traced it to the Craft estate, They found ihe old flat stone with the carved letters telling of how one ticorge Alexander John Carstone had lived and died, etc. “And do you bear one of names?” asked the colonel. “I am John Carter—I beg your par don for not having introduced myself | at once,” the young man hastily re- plied, extending a card to Col. Dar- the | great-granddaddy’s, eh?” Caroline laughed at her father's | facetiousness with a stranger, and yet | —in her innermost self—she was sure the man would not always be a stranger. Already her father was ving: | “If you will, our house is yours and you can remain through the day with us and return to this spot and care properly for the resting place of your ancestor, Eh, Caroline?” | “Yes, indeed, father.” The three returned to breakfast, and Caroline had misgivings as to the picnic, now that the young man had come on a serious errand. He put her at ease in a moment. “What better care than the visita- tion of a merry party of young folks could my good grandmother have asked? TI'll join you, if I may.” And that Memorial day picnic be- neath the hemlocks was a day to be | remembered by Caroline Darling, for | it was in the cool, quiet shadows there that she first saw into the depth of the eyes of the man who was to become her husband.
