"You must allow me to help you, Miss Hazeltine," said Gideon, putting out his hand. Julia gave a little cry of pleasure. "O, Mr. Forsyth," she cried, "I am so glad to see you; we must get this horrid thing, which can only have come here by mistake, into the house.
She says his name's Hazeltine, or somethin' like that, and that he's goin' to get here to-morrer or next day." "Well," said Captain Eri, "it's a mercy M'lissy found it out. If that man should git here and she not know it aforehand 'twould kill her sure as fate, and think what a blow that would be to you, Perez." He took his old-fashioned watch from his pocket and glanced at the dial.
"I'll be down in a few minutes, Mr. Hazeltine," said the Captain. "Set still, won't you?" But Mr. Hazeltine wouldn't sit still. He announced that it was late and he must be going. And go he did, in spite of his host's protestations. "Look out for the stairs," cautioned the Captain, leading the way with the lamp.

We ain't out of our heads; I tell you that, 'cause I know that's what it looks like." The bewildered Hazeltine laughed and said he was glad to hear it.
How a man ripens with the years!" The intelligent reader will perceive the ravages of Miss Hazeltine. Gideon had carried Julia straight to Mr. Bloomfleld's house; and that gentleman, having been led to understand she was the victim of oppression, had noisily espoused her cause. He worked himself into a fine breathing heat; in which, to a man of his temperament, action became needful.

Superintendent Randall, of the city schools of New York, over-hearing the conversation, said: "Father Hazeltine, I fully agree with the first part of your remark but dissent entirely from the latter. I should be proud if I had a wife or daughter capable of either writing or reading that paper as Miss Anthony has done."
