The luini-ter and Jessy walked a faw yards behind them. They were ta'kiug of the entertainment to b given to the stranger. "He is welcome a day or two nt the niane," said Doctor Telfair, hut with out much cordiality. "Vou know, Jessy, there are always my sermons to write, and the thought of a visitor is the thought of the burns and of the fish in them; and you'll allow, my dear, that there is not much spiritual ity between trout and sermons."
