"I see it," Maurice replied in guarded tones. "Bill, that light's comin' this way, sure as shootin'." "Land o' Liberty! but he was generous!" cried Mrs. Keeler. Mr. Johnston frowned, then observing his host and hostess fall to their knees, he too got stiffly down beside his chair. He prayed long and fervently and ended by asking God to help him lead these people from the shadow into enlightenment..
