"Oh. she In dead!" "No." icid'eil her father; "she In not." flat a stirred. and her lips moved but she did not' open her eyes, nnd theti her father noticed that a Btrnnuo mark lay over her face, Haw Mr. Hardy miooeeded In carry Inu the clrl to the top cf the bank; how he left her there In the enre nf was not hurt except a scratch or two, because Rhe fell between two car ieat cushion! that were Jammed around her aial protected her from Injury; how the eM'ltemeut rew ni It wns discovered that the dead nnd dying would number m ire than 7Ti Instead of 10 or 12. as Burns had telephoned; bow finally Robert Hardy and Will and Bess and ,."lara. with other victims, were taken buck to Barton, where a great crowd nf anxious, pale faced people wag aur(j Inx through the station and over the track: how .Intnes Caiton was first to board the train down by the shops at the risk of his neck as In the rainy darkness he swung himself on the dead I run up to the platform of the coach; Itiow Mrs. Hardy met her children and ! husband; bow there was sorrow in tunny a home In Barton that night and for many days to come; bow Mr. nar .1y Anally, a little after midnight, en tirely exhausted by the events of the jay nnd night, fell asleep nnd dreamed Ihe scene all over again all this and a ?rent deal more might be of Interest 'oncernlng one of the most remarkabhj railroad accidents that ever occurred in this country, but would be out of place In this narrative. For It Is all true, exactly and literally, only the de failed horrors of It no pen can describe, no wohls can tell. Mr. Hardy woke about 8 o'clock rest ed, but feeling very lame and sore from his exertions of the night. Ills .list thought was of Clara. When he went to sleep, the girl seemed to be resting without pain, only that strange mark across ber face made tbetn all anxtona. it wns not a bruise, but It lay like a brand across the eyes, which had not opened since her father found her lying by the frozen stream. James had liiHlstod on staying lu the house to be of service, and Mrs. Hardy had felt grateful for his presence as she watched for returning conscious ness from Clara, who still gave no nio.e sign of animation, although she bit allied easily ami seemed to be free from pain. 12 very doctor and surgeon ai town had been summoned to the scene of the accident. But Mr. Hardy felt so anxious for Clara as he came lu ami looked at her that he went ti v n stairs ami asked .lames If he woiii !.i't run out and see If any of the tl ict us had returned. "Yes, sir; I'll go at nnee. How is lie now, Mr. Hardy?" .lames hiaked h.:a in the face with the look that love means when it If. true and brave. "My boy, replied Mr. Hardy, laying his Laud on .lames' Khoiili'er. "I den t know. There Is something strange about it. i. t a doctor if you can. But I know there must be many oilier sad hoincs today lu Barton, oh, It was hoi ri i ie!" lie .-at dov. n and covered his face. w 1 1 : It- .1; 's with a brief "(bid help us, sir!'' wt m out In search of a doctor. Mr. I Ian,) went ip stairs again ami, with liis wife, knell down and offered a prayer of t!:.iuksg,v ing and cf ap peal, "o Lord." said Hubert, "grant that this thar cue of ours may be re stored to us il::.' in. Spare us tliltran guish. not in letiun for our g.iodness, but out of thy great iei!iia.siiuu for our sins repent oil of." Will and Hess lay In the next room, and now that the reaction had set In they were sleeping. Will feverish and restless, lless tuiet ami peaceful, as if iiolhiiig had happened out of the usual order of tliii gs. "Where Is tieoigeV" asked Mr. Har dy lis he rose from his prayer. "I don't know. Hubert. He started down to the train a little while after yon did. Haven't you seen him?" "No. Mary, (bid grant he may not" Mr. Hardy did not dare linisli his thought aloud. His wife guessed Iris thought, and fn getlier tlie two sat baud In lian, drawn very near by their mutual truiK hie and by all the strange events of that strange week, and together they talked of the accident and of Clara and .lames an I lln ir eldest son, juid thru Mrs. Hardy said as she trembling drew her husband's face near to her: "Hubert, tlo yon still have that Im pi'esvn eoiieeriiing the time left you lure to live?
