Moreover, he was bothering Miss Rose, and we didn’t like that. “Now I tell you how it is, boys,” says Tom Bullen. “What he wants is to prove himself. He's like a young horse that hasn't been broke. He's like a soldier going into battle, who thinks he's a hero and has to learn that it will take all his heroism to keep from running away. If once he gets up against what he's looking for i he'll sing pretty small and possibly turn out to be a good feller.” And then he outlined his plan to us. | We were to stage an attempted ab- duction. || It was three nights later, before the | moon come up, that we carried out the plan. Jim and Tom lay in wait at the . parsonage corner, about the time when Miss Rose used to walk home from the store. We knew the parson would be waiting for her, to say good eve- | ning and to offer to escort her, and | the rest of us was hiding in Ephraim’s store across the street, to see the fun. Just as Miss Rose was passing the | parsonage Jim and Tom leaps out and ! grabs her. Scream? I never heard a . girl holler Hke it. Jim said afterward it scared him into thinking he was really trying to abduct her. “Help! Help!” she cried at the top |- of her voice. Suddenly the parsonage door opened and Mr. Cunningham came out. “Wh-wh-what's the matter?” stammered. [ It was so dark some of us had taken the opportunity to creep up close, and I tell you it fairly scared me stiff to | think a man could be such a coward I The parson was positively shaking | with fright, and he looked as if hs | was going to turn tail any instant. | “You leave that young lady alone,” ' he mumbled; and then he caught sight of Miss Rose’s face. Next instant he had landed like a catapult right into the pair of them. Before he knew it, Jim was lying in the road with a cut lip and Tom was leaning against the wall with a bruised eye. But the parson was at them again, and there wasn't mothing to do but to turn tail. We ran, the lot of ' us, and we was afraid every instant the parson would land one of us blows across our necks. But he tailed off and went back to Miss Rose, and that was the last we saw, except that we heard he took her home and told her she wasn’t never to go out alone after | dark in such a vicious town again.
