Dear Uncie Jed: In Portland, Maine, on February 27, 1807, was born one of Portland Academy and was a very dili- | gent student. He was gradoated in 1821 and then went to Bowdoin college until 1825. Longfellow was very fond of languages and was offered the chair of Modern languages in the college he had attended. He went abroad and when he returned he married Mary Storer Potter. ‘When Longfellow was young he had & great desire «a Write. ~When in col- lege he produced a few poems which were published in the Litary Gazstte, & | paper to which the ol®G poet Bryant al- 80 contributed. ~ Much of Longfellow’s earlier work was in prose but it was not much until after his second marriage. Longfellow went abroad with his wife college. travelled in the Scandinavian penisula and Holland where his life was sadden- ed by the death of his young wife. He returned and ‘took up his professorship until 1854, Shortly after his return he took up his residence at the Craigie House. He lived there singly until 1842 when he married Frances Elizabeth Appleton and received the Craigie House for a wed- ding gift. It was at the Craigie House that Longfellow wrote his poems.

Riding My Horse to the Viliage. Dear Uncle Jed: On Januvary 24, 1918, three years ago I thought I would take a ride on a horse down to a small village near which I used to live. So I put the bridle on the horse. T did not have any saddle, so I had to ride bareback. Then I backed the horse out of the barm and started off.

It seemed as if only the dark, disagreeable clouds were abroad to the poor old mar plodding along the state road between J. and G. As he looked above he murmured to himself: “We'll see rain before nightfall. Please God, let me reach G. before it commences. I must be_there tonight.” Hardly had he so spokem when with a crash the rain came down in torrenmts. The lone traveler managed to secure shelter underneath the roots of a large, upturned tree. From his point of van- tage he gazed upon the werks eof the Lord with amazement mingled with fear. “What power the God above does pos- seses,” he thought. “Everything does { His bidding. But oh! I wish I ecould reach G.” For a few minutes he sat huddled up in his place of safety gtorm. As the storm finally departed and the sky began to clear, he saw one of the most beautiful sights he had ever seen. The sky became tinted with many red, orange, pink, purple and yellow.

A house as houses had in the olden times. Upon seeing it for the first time, I had a great desire to enter it. but with the with its many house was a miystery which kept people from entering it. The mystery was that at night a light could be seen fitting around from room to room, and people said it was the ghost of the dead owner. Another story was that every night a relative of the dead man was missing and that fact people associated with the other, saying that he went to communi- cate with the ghost. So with this mys- tery hanging over it no one dared enter the house until one day a party of venm- turesome boys decided to-enter it that night. Nightt came and they were hiding near it. When the light appeared they softly crept into the house and following the light suddenly came upon it in a small room at the back of the house. Here they saw a strange sight. The relative was on his knees, digging under the boards. The boys caught him and asked him what he was doing. He replied that he was searching for a treasure which the dead owner had falked about during his last moments. So with this fact ends the mystery of the old fasHioned house. MARCIA C.
