Ifshe were but dead, we need never name her name again, We've never hoard nought on her since fahor wrote her that letter ; we never knew wh @ got it or not. She'd left her place before « Many one dics “Oh my lad! dunnot speak so to me,‘or my heart will break outright," said his mother, with # sort of ery. Then shecalmed herself, for she yearned to permiade him to her own belief. “Thou never asked, and thou'rt too like thy father for me to tell without asking—but it were all to be near Lizzie’s old place that I settled down on this side o' Man- chester ; and the very day after we came, I went to her old miasea, and asked to speak a word wi! her. T bad # strong mind to castit up to her, that she should ha’ sent my poor lass away without telling on it to us first; but she were in black, and looked so sad Icould na’ find in my heart to threep it up. Rut T did ask her a bit about our Lizzie, The mas- ter would have turned her at a warning, (he's gone to tother place ; [hope he'll meet wi' more mercy there than he showed our Liazie,—I da—) and when the missus asked her should she write to us, she says Lizzie shook her head ;and when sbe speered at ber again, the poor lass went down on ber knees, and begued her not, for sheaald it would break my heart, (as it has done, Will-God knows itthas),"’ said the poor mother, choking with her struggle to keep down her hard overmastecing grief, ‘and her father would curse her--Oh God, teach me to be patient." She could not speak for a few minutes, —" and the lass threatened, and said she’ go drown herself {in the canal, if the missus wrote home, end so— “ Well! I'd got a trace of my child,—the miasus thought she'd gone to th’ workhouse to be nursed ; and there I went,—and there, sure enough, she bad been, —and they'd turned ber out as goon as she wore strong, and told her she were young enough to work, —but whatten kind o' work would Le open to ber, lad, and her baby to keep?" Wil! listened to bis mother's tale with deep sym- pathy, not unmixed with the old bitter shame. But the opening of her heart had unlocked his, and af- tor awhile he spoke, ‘Mother! I think I'd e’en better yo home, Tom can stay wi'thee. I know I should stay too, but I caunot stay in peace so near hor—without crav- ing to see ber—Susan Palmer I mean." ‘Has the old Mr. Palmer thou telled me on @ daughter?” asked Mrs. Leigh, “Aye, he has. And I love her above abit. And it's because [love her I want to leave Manchester That's all." Mis. Leagh tried to understand thia speech for some time, but found it difficult of interpretation. “Why should'’st thou not tell her thou lov'st her? Thou'rt @ likely lad, and sure ot work, Thou'lt have Upelose at my death ; and as for that I could let thee have it now, and keep mysel’ by doing a bitafchar- ring. Itseems to me a very backwards sort o' way of winning her to think of leaving Manchester."* “Oh mother, she's ao gentle and so good, —she's downright boly. She's never known o@ touch of ain; and can I ask her to marry me knowing what we do about Lizzie, and fearing worse! I doubt if one like her could ever care for me; but if she knew about my sister, it would put # gu'f between us, and she'd shudder at the thought of crossing it. You don't know how good she is mother!"* Will, WII! if she's as good as thou esy'st she'l| have pity on such a# my Lizzie, Ifshe has no pity for such, she's a cruel Pharisce, and thou'rt without her." But he only shook his head, and mghed; and for the time the conversation dropped. But a new idea sprang up in Mrs. Leigh's head. She thought that she wo go wee Busan Palmer, and speak up for Will, and tell her the truth about Lizzie ; and according to ber pity for the poor ain- ner, would she be worthy or unworthy of him. She resolved to go the very next afternoon, but with- out telling any one of her plan. Aseonilanty abe looked out the Sunday clothes she bad never before had the heart to unpack since shecame to Manches- ter, but which she now desired to appear in, 1m or- der to do credit to Will, Sheputon Ler oldfashion- ed black mode bonnes, trimmed with real lace ; her scarlot cloth cloak, which she had had ever since she was married, and always spotleasly clean, she sot forth on ber unauthorized emnbassy. She knew the Palmers lived in Crown Street; though where sho had heard it she could not tell; and modealy asking her way, she arrived in the sireet sbout @ quarter to four o'clock, She stopped to inquire the exact number, and the woman whom she ad- dressod told ber that Sussn Palmer's school would not be loose till four, and asked her to step in and wait until then at her house, ** For,'' eald she, emiling, them that wants Su- ean Palmer wants a kind friend of ours: so we, in ‘s manner, Call cousins, Sithiown, missus, at down, Dll wipe the chair, so that it shauna dirty your cloak, My mother used to wear thera bright cloaks, and they're right gradely things agin « green feld,"* ‘Han ye known Busan Palmer long?" asked Mrs, Leigh, pleased with the admiration of her cloak, “Ever since they comed to live in our street, Our Saily goes to her school." **Whatten sort of a lasa is she, for I bat never seen her?" * Well,—-as for looka, Icannot say, It's so long since I first knowed her, that I've clean forgotten what I thought of her then, My master says he never saw such a smile for glaidening the rt. But maybe it's not looks you're asking about, The best thing I can say of her looks is, that she's just one # stranger would stop in the street to ask help from if-you needed it, All the little childer creeps as closo as they can to her; she'll have as many os three or four hanging to her apron all at once,"* she cocket at allt" *Cocket, bleas you! you ne’ leas sot up in all your life, Hi enouzh. No! she’s not cocket any way. You've not beard much of Susan Palmer, I reckon, if you think she's cocket, She's just one to come quietly in, and do the very thing most wanted ; little things, maybe, that any one could do, but that few would think on, for another, She'll bring her thimble wi! her, aud mend up after the childer o' 1 hts, —and she writes al!
