Our lives were surely trending toward each other, and our paths would have met. We would have loved and have wedded there, had it not been for my " "Say no more. Let us forget the past in thinking of and planning for the future. I am happy now, and so is your mother." "And so am I." "Whatsoever God doeth it shall be forever." Eccl. 3:14.

This accords perfectly with what we should theoretically expect, in our northern hemisphere, if the electricity in the earth's crust is due to thermo-electrical currents from east to west, namely, from the more heated to the less heated portion, on any given latitude, while the earth revolves from west to east; as well as also from electrical currents trending from tropical to Arctic regions.
The coast still trending to the westward, and rising into lofty ranges of mountains, Columbus began to suspect that he was off the mainland of India; but his eyesight failing, he was reluctantly compelled to steer for Hispaniola to seek for needed rest.
