LITERARY.
A LIFE.
Silently from God's hand Is thrown
A tiny drop, into life's sea,
A soul is born, a seed is sown
To live througn all eternity.
Life is begun.
The waves of life's great ocean wild
Engulf the drop; 'tis but a part
Of the great whole, a ripple mild:
Then comes a voice from Heaven—"Depart"
Life is begun.
—Goldie Wreston Brown.
THE SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS.
(By Harold Bell Wright.)
From the old Matthews place an old trail leads down the
mountain, winding along a steep slope in the hillside. It travels
through heavily timbered hills, and comes into the open upon a
ledge. Following this ledge one comes upon Dewey Bald which
Sammy, the daughter of Jim Lane, an early settler, called Lookout,
for the old trail then leaves the rim of Mutton Hollow and traverses
the hills and valleys far out into the world that Sammy said,
"seemed mighty good to them that knowed nothing about i t . " Past
Jim Lane's cabin,on the Old Trail, Grant Mathews and Aunt Mollie
came and built their home farther on. Later they purchased the
sheep ranch in Mutton Hollow and another trail was made, and
the three places were connected.
It was along this same Old Trail that the stranger entered
Mutton Hollow. A man aged and worn with many cares, but
carrying with him an air of distinction and good breeding.
Jed Holland, an ignorant but talkative young mountaineer,
pointed the way up the trail to Grant Matthews' place, and so the
stranger came to live with them.
Here he found the father and son, both of the same name and
both giants, Aunt Mollie with her sturdy figure clothed in a calico
dress, toil hardened hands, and gentle kindly face, and Pete, tall
and erect with fine girlish moulded face framed in golden hair;
his great eyes filled with a bright shifting light that told his
strange mental condition. In his own words he explained himself,
" I 'm just nobody. Nobody can be nothin', can they?"
Grant Matthews filled with a great reverance and comradeship
for the stranger, told the story of Pete, the boy who flitted
away among the trees like an elf and who talked of nature as his
friend.
