ABBOTT, Manager A Story of Longf Affo A1out tbe 1.1 a r and the Bandit There were two brothers who one day left the pa ternal home to travel over the world and gain their living as served the good God best. When they had gone a day's journey the older one proposed to the younger that at the first crossing of the road they came to one should go oneway, the other go the other way. That prop osition looked well to the younger brother, and on arriving at a place where the road forked the brothers took leave of each other, one going to the right, the other to the left. try were forced to give aid. The chief subjected the unhappy prisoner to an in terrogatory in order to judge of his char acter, intending, if he proved to be a spy, to apply the penalty which he was used to execute without scruples.
