From the lower slopes of the Cedar Hills issued many wide wooded ravines. Of these none were prettier than Spring Coulee which even in winter retained its attractiveness, having a goodly sprinkling of evergreen trees among the poplars and cottonwoods lining its sides.

When used in previous acts, bed and wheels had been hidden by moss, the tank had been covered by his mantle, and the entire mechanism, moving as he moved, had seemed a part of himself. Now its secret was disclosed and it was ridiculous. “Tell us how you found him, Moses,” requested Nell Gordon, who was always interested in tales of knighthood. “This is a lyre, very old,” said Mr. Crump, handling an ancient instrument tenderly.
