How all would be hushed in expectance of the next moment's act! III. The miracle itself is told in the fewest words. What more was there to tell? The two ends, as it were, of a buried chain, appear above ground. Cause and effect were brought together. Rather, here was no chain of many links, as in physical phenomena, but here was the life-giving word, and there was the dead man living again.

Brandreth spoke of it, and I had an opportunity of trying it last night, and seeing just what it amounted to." "Yes?" Mrs. Munger prompted, with an increase of expectance in her large clear eyes, and of impartiality in her whole face. "Mr. Peck was here," said Annie reluctantly, "and I tried it on him."
