"Thank you," he said as the girl broke off in confusion. "I cannot believe it myself. But twelve good men and true believed it; an expert in handwriting was most convincing, and if you had heard the judge " "But you did not do it, Mr. Stane, I am sure of that." "No," he answered, "I did not do the thing for which I suffered. But to prove my innocence is another matter."

A week after Harry's death he wrote: 'I loved him as I never expect to love any other little boy; but I could not love him as a parent. Ib. p. 310. Johnson had known this anxiety. He wrote to Mrs. Thrale from Ashbourne on July 7, 1775: 'I cannot think why I hear nothing from you. I hope and fear about my dear friends at Streatham.

In many cases this is the root of our fear. We cannot trust without misgiving to the love of God. What is there then that we can trust to?

But I cannot remember that friendship now. I can only think that if he had been the true man we took him for, you would not have waited alone in that dark passage during those six hours." He turned again to the centre of the room and asked abruptly: "You are going back to Glenalla?" "Yes." "You will live there alone?" "Yes." For a little while there was silence between them.

As I said before, I know nothing of the squire's affairs, and, as a matter of course, I do not ask you to tell me. But I am sure you will agree with me in this, that, as a mother, I cannot but be interested about my only son," and Lady Arabella put her cambric handkerchief to her eyes.
