"The spinnin'-wheels she brung from No'th Carliny," enumerated Medora, "the loom an' the candle-moulds." "The cheers his dad made fur his mam whenst they begun housekeeping" said Jane Gilhooley's muffled voice. "The press an' the safe," Medora continued. "The pot an' the oven," chokingly responded the apron. "The churn an' the piggins!" "The skillet an' the trivet!"
She came in swiftly, and put her arms about him, as her sister had done. "Oh, Daddy dear, what is it?" she asked, anxiously. "I I'll tell you presently," he replied, chokingly.

"Yes," she said, chokingly; "it it just came. Oh, I am so glad Father did not come home to dinner to-day. He would have have seen me and and oh, why did he do it, Jed? Why?" Jed shook his head.

"Do you think I don't care?" he said at last, brokenly. "Do you think it hasn't nearly killed me to see her unhappiness to be able to do nothing.

Such of it as could not find this means of outlet doubled back floorward, filling the room with chokingly thick fumes which wellnigh blinded and strangled the man and blotted out all details of shape and direction.
