"And after this is done, Jos:e, I shall sue htm for defamation of character, and mako him pay for every insolence.1' This was no idle threat. The next morning Charles' lawyer confronted the fa'se hearted scoundrel with his I. O. 1'. and entered proceeding at once to re cover. I0na3 at first tried to compro mise, but this offer Charles iudignantly Vcjected. ' I want the world to see." he said, "that though punishment for a cowardly wicked deed be long delayed, it is sure to come." And perhaps the social and -commer-cial world in which thesft two men moved never had a more vivid illustra tion of this truth. The business that had Iseea built upon a fraud and a' wrong crumbled away as if touched by some ; withering blight. Thsi court 'awarded. Charles Day priucipal a id full interest, and a subsequent nctioa tor de famation gave him, in reparation for his fifteen years' slandered name, f fry thous and dollars. But by thaU titm the Arm of Jonas Terry was uusib'.e to meet such a .-claim. He shut his d jo rs in dishonor, and fled in the darkness of night f ion the thous ands whom he had robbed. '"It i-4 a gier.t purjjshment," said Josie. sorrowfully : . 'und he hr,s four little bors." "It wa a great crime Josie; and the wrohg to my purse was the legist part of i the wron." : But 7Irs.
