iuband nenda forever mare aad from thai time charles eddy tarn ed over a new leaf his good old teacher had given him new ambition and under that teachers gaidance he turned his face resolutely towards a worthy manhood time passed on the little hamlet wu growing lo quite a village snd the people wanted a younger aod more polished peda gogue so robert bruce wu forced to gather ap his scanty store and seek a new field of labor charles eddy had then grown to be a stoat rugged youth health ful and handsome with an education u good as could have beea gained in any scadcntyta the land ilobert bruce hsd tanghf hiuigreek and latin had led him auderslandiogly throagh the mises of euclid besides perfecting him in the com mon branches of school education charles wept when be bade bis faithfal friend a final adieu for be felt that the good old man wu passing out from the ufa of that village for all time and still time passed on nuttl robert bruce had well righ passed out from the life aad recollection of his loving pnpil charles eddys father had beeq the chief man in the place when living naving owned by far the greater portion of the territory in and around the little village snd when the village began to grow aod prosperity came the dwellers therein in regular town meeting assembled unani mously voted that the town should be named eddyville and eddyville it became from that time j the first opward step wu the develop ment of an immense waterpower within a pistol shot of the centre of- the old hamlet on bind belonging to charles eddy for charles was then of age and bad taken possession and assumed routrol of his estate au estitaot bet little vajae whea his father left it bat very valuable now and growiug more and more valuable day by day business men of wealth aud eiperience came on and saw the wonderfal possibili ties of the waterpower and offered to pur chase bat charles wts wise he offered every honorable inducemeat to the incom ing capitalist bat he would not sell oat- right he would sell certain rights aod privileges bat he would reuiu an interest and be did so so the town grew and the manufactur ing interests prospered and in time charles eddy became one of the weatbiest and most infiaeulial and one of the most honored men in that section he married and a family gtew up around him and the time came when he took his own son apoa hie knee a brighteyed boy of ten years and tod himjihe storyot the life- lesson given him by rubert brace ih the years sgone the boy listened with deep est interest and vilieu ibe story had beeu told be blessed in his childiah heart the good old pedagogue aud promised that be woaid never tell a lie and the little one uked where ia old bobert brace aow ah t answered the father shaking hii bead sadly he most be dead long ere this god bless him be where he may charles eddy had become almost a per manent fixtareiu the 6 late legislature he had been first elected when- five- and- twenty years of age and for uvea laccea- ire years thereafter his townsmen kept him in the same office and be would have been sent oa the eighth year had not ihe citizens of a brvder circuit demanded his services in the btate beaale and to the senate be was elected daring this session in the senate charles eddy wu appointed upoa the committee on prisons sad in the course of bis round of duties in that office he visited one of the largest sad most important of the city jsiu the city prison it was asoallv called here gentlemen said the warden who wu conducting thu committee over the place ll the department of the poor debtors the heart of charles eddy was keenly toached poor debtors poor debtors i alu and in a christian land i do not like it- there may be cass where extreme in- dacement of force becomes necessary bat the creditor shoald not have power to im prison in yonder cell the warden continued is a case that might drag sympathy from a heart of stone an old mo folly four score years of age just tottering on the verge of the grave shot ophere for debt 1 one ot the committee asked the warden if he knew the circumstances of the csfee yes be answered the old man has told me bis story aud i know that he told it truly he wu formerly professor ot greek and latin aod the higher branch es of mathematics in a private academy bald academy had been started in opposi tiou to another institution ot like character in a neighboring town the matter of religion or sect being the dividing hue betweeu them this old man knew nothing ot that the academy had been iu operation several months when ne wu persuaded lo join tu faculty in tine the projectors of the iustiuitiou persuaded our old friend lo oecome one of the owners and business managers pubr old man t there is no more business iu him than there is io yonder kitten had there been he would never have suffered himself to be dragged into the mess as be did however they represented to him that things were going on swimmingly sod be consented to become one of tbecorporators he thought it wu a grind thing and in that capacity be signed a number of notes giveu by the corpora t ion he hsd not the least idea of what he was doing to him it wu but a mere form necessary lo reader fhe notes negotiable well in the lime the academy barst up sad this end wu chiefly brought about by the coming upon tbeht in amnmp of their outstanding notes it appeased that one or two of the corporators of the rival iustitution bad bought tbem at a big dis count and thus armed ibey came down upon their opponent and brought him to grief bat iu one sense they had biileu off their owu fingers when the holders ot the notes presented them for payment of the signers this old man wuthe only one to be found the others bad all distappearej they found him however aud u he hsd not a dollar of money they took his body and sent it hither for safe keeping a simple matter of vengeance aaid a committee man yoa ere rirhtv nolded the warden this old maas wonderful capacity for greek aol latin and the very highesf branches of mathematics had done more towards attracting pupils to their rivals than any thingdue aad moreover they had offered lo hire bim and be would not serve ihera yes it wu vengefcl mr eddy the chairman of the committee had been strangely moted during the later part of this recital and bad not spoken he bad started toward thedodr of the cell when the warden called him back with the remark if yoa please sir one moment it pains the old man to be stared at if you wish to see him do not show that you have any curiosity in the matter if yoa coald spare time to conterse with him ah that would please him what it his name robert bruce he is a scotchman by birth and the first forty years of bis life wu spent in the higher educational institutions of edinburgh what is the amoaut of his indebtedness orfor what coald the paper outstanding against him be bought up t- the full face amoant is something over four thousand dollars but the creditors have offered to take twothousond and give up all claim t eddy concladed that he would not speak with the old man at that time but he would assure himself that there was no mistak bo he walked slowly past the grated door and saw standing directly before him with his grand old face at the bars his old tutor of the other years he was farced to harry oa not only to bide ihe tears hat would not stay down but to smother the cry that rose to his lips he did not pats the cell on his return i on the following day charles eddy saw ihe men or ralher man foe only one of them hsd held out in the cruel cause and bought up all claim i held against robert bruce j late on friday afteraoou as the sun vu sinking behind the western hills the war den and the turnkey came to the cell ot the aged debtor j i yoa may come oat mr brace wherefore at this hoar v- the turnkey bad unlocked ihe heavy iron door and the prisoner had stepped out npon thft corrider robert bruce yoa are a free man ftk guped the old man frtt i do nojoaderstand your debt is paid and yoii are free frtir he repeated half to himself brushing his hand across bis brow fnx ah arid where now shall rest my weary bead o this ia mockery i have done with earth let me rest here for the few remaining hoars i shall not burden you long if you turn me out upon the wide wide world friendless and forlorn what shall i do lear man aaid the warden kindly and percuuirely at the same time taking him by the arm come with me to my sittingroom snd we will see what can be doae yoa shall not be tamed oat npon the cold world all alone be you sure of that then the warden led him away beyond the confines of the prisoo to his own quar ters led him into his handsomely furnish ed drawingroom where a gentleman stood ready to meet him a gentleman not young tall strong aod handsomeoneof the grand estlooking men be thought that he bad ever seen the genllemaa advanced and extended his hand robert bruce do yoa know me yes answered the old man in a low quiveriug whisper the wau aud timewprn face seeming transformed thou art thea angel that flitted across fay vision two days ago u i stood at the dnor of my prvon- room i know not whence the inspiration but it seemed to me thai thoa wert a spirit of life and light and not ot earth that night i dreamed of thee aud in the dream another form ons of earthly mould wu envolved from thy spirit substance i saw no ko is ihis a fancy of my dis ordered brain or art tboa with a low wailing cry the old man tottered foe ward and rested both his bands upon the gentlemans shoulders yes yes i am charles eddy come to repay so far as i can a debt that never can be wholly paid dear old friend true g aide sad guardian of my boyhood yoa shall come with me and my home shall be your home while life is yours the old man tried to apeak butcooldnot he coald only rest his headnponthe shoul der of his newfound friend and burst into sobbing and tears that evening eddy took his old tutor to his own hotel where he passed suitable- clothing to beproeared and on the follow iug morning they took the cars for eddyville which place they reached shortly after noon there had been no railroad in that region when robert brace had lutjkuown the place and he knew bod where lie wu until charles had informed him where the little old hut of a schoolhouse used to sundnow stood a stately academy of brick and stone and where once be had fished for trout and perch now arose the walls cover ing acres manufacturing concerns on arriving at his own handsome resi dence charles led the ancient pedagogue at once to the great drawingroom where bis mother sat with three of his children mrs eddy recognued the newcomer at tight bhewas upon her fees in a moment both her hands outstretched with the light of
