She grew on as the years passed and her circle of friend ships increased in proportion to the people she met, ~ Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. X. Best of Kline, S. C., Were" very proud of her and justly so. They determined to give her every advantage to get an edu cation they possibly could, so they sentdier away to a female college that she might finish her education and perfect her self in music, for her. talent in this branch was far beyond the ordinary. I moved away to a near by town, so we did not meet again for several years, but after her return home she visited my family; One after noon while there she said to me, “Oh, I have a song to sing ufor you.” (She knew how pas sionately fond' I was of music),• and immediately arose., and went to the organ, and w ith the Last night I lay a sleeping, 1 There came a dream so fair, • • J stood in old Jerusalem, Beside the temple there.

I sat puzzled, silent and spellbound, so enrapt had I be come as the cadences died away for in that “Hosanna to your King,” I realized to what lofty heights her whole” soul was grasping. Her beautiful jeyes shone with a lustre I had lever seen in them before, her ,ce was fixed, her head quiv- eVed, now and again, my young fr^nd was in intense worship, While I sat thus pensive and musing the interlude was finish ed and the sohg continued : • And therkme thought my dream was twanged, The stress no longer rang, Hush’d were\ the glad Hosan nas, " V The little children sang. * The sun grew tfark with mys tery, The morn wap cold and chill As the shadow *f a Cross arose Upon a lonely hill. Jerusalem! Jerusalem! Hark! how the angels sing, Hosanna in the highest, Hosanna tQ your King. a And-as the scene was-chang ed in the song from the first to the second verse so the singer • * passed from childhood in my reveries to womanhood in real ity. I. was being enthralled and transported over the thousands of yearsi back to Gal and Guth and Cavalry, and through the harmony of sounds a picture of the tragedy of the ages was be ing drawn for me to gaze upon, but whd\ is she saying, listen: “The sun grew dark with mys tery, \ The morn was cold and chill, As the shadow of a cross arose Upon a lonely hill.” The voice stopped and there was a lull in the nvusic as tho the singer, too, was impressed as never before by the gran deur and glory of the song. But no, there was no change in my friend, it was in me that the spellbound tides of human pas sions were rising and falling; it was in me that the celestial claim of music was still resist less, still the same for I was be ing borne along helplessly on the ever swelling tide of con cords as the/singer continued: < , '* “And once again the scene was changed,- New earth there seemed to be, I saw tjie Holy City , __ Beside the tideless sea; The light of God was on th,e streets^ * The gates ^re opened wide, And all who would, might enter And no our was denied.
