At the third time of dream ing he got up, dressed and went out. He beard the thud of a spade and caught sight of a man digging by Ian tern light. The digger fled at his ap proach. It was a grave upon which he had been at 'work By its brink lay a huge knife. On his way back the farmer met one of his maidserv ants. She had had a iuarrel with the man to whom she had been engaged. she said, but- he had prevailed upon her to meet him for the last time at 2. o'clock that morning, when he bad something to show her. "This Is what te had to show you." said the farmer. leading her to the. grave. London Tatler. The Sinews of War.
