In the face of peril it was well that the political parties united. it was to the credit-of the Conserva- tive papers that they did not de- nounce the mistaken policy of their contemporaries which de- prived Britain of three capital ships.

Indeed. the kindness and con- sideration with which he was treated by the family, the liberty accorded him. threw him on his honor not" to at- tempt to win the heart of a girl of the impressionable age of seventeen. Alma herself soon showed signs of a prefer- ence for her tutor. This was in no wise due to a lack of modesty. but to an innocent unconsciousness that she had lost her heart to him. If there is one prinviple (-onrerning their children that parents are apt to ignore it is that. given a young man thrown in intimate .el.tionship with a young woman. and there usually re- sults a love affair. One of Edward Lanier’s duties was to teach Alma Sin- clair an hour a day. He lived under the same roof with her. and their as- sociation was unrestizoted. Whether Colonel and Mrs. Sinclair did not think their daughter old enough to fall in love. or whether they considered that she would not think of a northern pen- niless tutor as a suitor. does not mat- ter; they seemed oblivious to the prin- ciple above stated. Lanier. through friends. obtained the position he desired in the 'talnily of Colonel Malcolm Sim-lair. who owned a large plantation in Georgia and 1.000. negroes. He found the ('oluuel an hon- orable. conscientious inan anfi thor- oughly identified with séutllern cus- toms and interests.

Some sixty years ago Edward La nier. a graduate of a northern college. having read muxh of plantation life. felt inclined to spend a few years in the south as tutor of the children of a planter. He desired to study law. but must support himself while doing so. By following his proposed (ourse he would hate lli‘iv h time to himself and live an entirely (iifierent life from what he would lire in the north.

Alma. taking advantage or the changed situation. assured her father that Lanier had never spoken a word or love to her. but that she had doubt- less 'shown by her manner a prefer- ence for him. Having heard this from his daughter. the colonel added to his thanks "for saving his life an apology for the way he had treated the man who had saved it. Lanier was restored to a welcome in the Sinclair household and in time av0wed his love. .But. too proud to ask the girl to be his wife. heireturned to the 'north and was ad- mitted to the bar.

One blow of that cudgel would have finished me. Come home with me.” The negro was within a dozen yards of his victim when he felt his arms pinioned from behind. Lanier had sm- len an unseen by him and grappled with him. But Lanier could not cope with the giant for long. Colonel Sin- clair darted forward and threw his arms about the negro's legs, and banler pulled him over. Between the two white men they mastered him, called {or help, and he was soon secured. When he was led away with his arms tied behind him the colonel seized La- nier’s hand. him and had entered the grove from a different direction. As Sinclair was placing flowers on his child‘s grave he heard a twig break and saw Jim com- ing with a club in his hands quite big enough to kill him. He ordered the negro to his quarters: in a tone. of au- thority which he hoped might cow him. Jim told him that he had come to re- pay the punishment he had given him and continued to more toward him. The colonel. being unarmed had a choice between this unequal contest and flight. He disdained the latter- and stood his ground. Within the grove was the Sinclair family cemetery. The colonel had lost a child, whose grave he visited fre- quently. Jim had been watching for an opportunity to take r'evenge upon One afternoon Lanier was sent by his employer to collect'a debt owing him. The only road by which he could reach the desired point was past the Sinclair plantation. He was on horse- back and was skirting the plantation with a fence only between him and it when in a grove beyond he heard high words. He recognized in the voices a white man and a negro. that of the white man sounding like Colonel Sin- clair’s. Dismounting.‘ he threw the reins over a rail and. climbing the fence. saw Jim. who was a powerful negro. advancing quickly upon his mas- ter. While Colonel Sinclair treated his slaves with every kindness. it is not to be supposed that in all cases this in- duced a return. There was one man. called Jim. who under whatever civil system he had |i\‘ed would have been a criminal and a desperado. The colo- nel had been obliged to discipline him on various occasions and during one of them while receiving his punishment in the presem-e of his master declared that he would be revenged. Sinclair. who knew no fear. thought little of the threat. but his Wife and his family from that moment lived in terror lest the man make it good. Mrs. Sinclair begged her husband to sell Jim to some one who would take him to Texas. as far from Georgia as any point where slavery existed. but the colonel declined on the ground that he had no right to transfer a danger to any one else. He therefore kept Jim and sought to Win him from his ways by justice and liberal treatment. .“"Untortunateiy the tutor had mutt, made purt'hasea wutvh had" taken an the money he had or was (the min.
