At the conclusion of the service, Deacon Ringold called a few of the leading church members together and to them spoke his mind thus: "'Cause he—he wants Erie," said the boy, miserably, "an she won't marry him.

A number of the boys ran out to gather kindling and wood and soon a fire was crackling in the stove. But the lawyer, apparently, had nothing to tell them.
