It was Esed Spiridion who had cut
the logs off the public land. Everybody
said so, everybody but the 12
little Spiridions that came stepping
lightly to school over the pine straw.
Rain or shine, never late, never noisy.

work, lean from light feeding.
"Troncon." Everybody boy in the
f school had been fought for that. It
was worth just one bloody nose to
say "stump" to one of the little
Spiridions.
But Lucie Spiridion did not fight
She was not even disdainful?save
toward Luc Nadjarow, who sat next
to her in class?she was always head
?and who worshiped her utterly from
the sole of her slim bare foot to the
topmost of her tOB6ing curls. Small
joy did he get of his love affair.
Ha, the poor Luc! He wahted to
knock down every boy in the school,
to slap the face of every girl?save
Lucie. He wanted to tell Lncle that c
he loved her. And all he did was to ^
lose his pencil. And little Esed found
It!
Luc's little brother arose in his ^
seat at the sight of that long, red
pencil. I
"Miss Nell, Esed stole my brother's
pencil," he cried.
Little Esed jumped up. He could
not speak English. He pointed helplessly
at the road. "Je trouve," he
whimpered.
Luc spoke up promptly. "That's all
right, Miss Nell, I give it to him." a
"May I speak?" asked Lucie, and g
barely waiting the teacher's consent,
shfl was across the room and had f
"robbed little Esed of his beautiful v
find. And Luc's pencil was on his
desk again. '
. i Luc stood up hotly. "May I speak?"
he demanded, and before all the
school he said to little Esed: "That's tl
yours. Keep it" F
The little fellow looked at his sister,
his lip quivering with the bitter q
pain of renunciation, but he returned
so haughtily as a baby may: "Je n'en (
ai pas besoin." And Luc went back
to his seat with his pencil. Ha,
slapped in the face by a baby?before 1
the whole school. It made him mad. F

"What for you didn't let Esed take
that pencil?" he demanded, overtak- ^
lng her.
"Esed say he didn't want it," she
replied, without looking at him.
"'Taln't me say your papa cut those
logs."
"No?" 1
4 The blood ran up to tho boy's hair
at the slur in her voice.
"I know, me, he ain't cut them." i
"That's what I know," she cut in,
N coldly.
"If I prove your pap didn't cut
those logs, you going let Esed keep
that pencil he find?" I
The girl's tone changed wonderfully.
"May be I let him keep that pencil? j
you give him," she said, softly.
Ha! Hut it would seem that all !
the sweetness of that changed tone
was lost on Luc. He said, stolidly. |
"You going be at the horse race ,
Sunday? I prove it then."
"Begin."
"I want you to take this now. May- i
I won't see Esed next Sunday." j

that shook the pines. Ha! and Lucie i
made herself look.
Dice was dismounting slowly from |
the beaten white horse, and Luc, hard i
and white at this proudest moment j
of his life, was pushing his winner a
little closer to the cheering crowd.
"I want to tell you all something."
he said, harshly, and there was silence,
even among the lucky betters.
"You all been saying it's M. Spiridion

e
Jacksonville, Fla.?Gov. Park Tram- c
me!:, Florida's popular and accomplished
chief executive, has given out i
a letter for publication in the news- <
papers of the South, on the approach- p
ing reunion in this city, ?Iay 6, 7, 8, of j,
the United Confederate Veterans' As- j
sociation. He assures the Confederate
veterans and their friends that 3
-they will he given a generous welcome 1
in Jacksonville and at other points in
the state which they may visit during t
their stay in Florida. The governor's i

The Governor's N^elcome. t
"It is simple truth to affirm that the I
hearts of the people of Florida are t
overflowing with gratification and
pride over the fact that the revered j
heroes composing the United Confed- a
erate Veterans will hold their annual ?
reunion this year in our state's c
metropolis.
"The grand old heroes of the Gray c
will meet a magnificent, whole-souled f
reception in Jacksonville and at any
other Florida points they may visit.
They will be amongst their own. They c
will he in an atmosphere thoroughly /
Southern, splendidly hospitable and t
highly apreciative of the honor of having
been selected as the Reunion City *
and State. a
"Florida is rich in#romance and tra>4 a
dition, and in the loyalty of her people
to high ideals and patriotic endeavors, d
In proportion to population and resources,
Florida contributed hs gc-n- "
erously and as cheerfully in men apd
in means to the support of the Con- ?sj
federate cause as did any of the other S
great commonwealths which so nobly @
championed that righteous stru^fele. ?
Florida gave many great names to the ?
mighty galaxy of the South's match- g
less heroes, and she gave a host of g
brave men of the ranks who on count- ?
less fields rendered valorous account g
of their courage and patriotism. The g
creditable part which the people of |
this state took in support of Southern ^
defense is a source of pride to the sur- g
vivors of the great conflict and of ?
veneration to the younger generation. ?
"In every community from the Po- ?
tomac to the Gulf the Confederate vet- ?
eran is always an honored and a wel- g
come visitor and guest.' No greater ?
tribute could be paid to the enduring
justice of the principles for which -hey
contended and for the magnificent @
manner in which they sustained their ?
convictions through the four sternest ?
years of American history, than the g
unanimous and enduring verdict of &
commendation and appreciation which g
has for half a century accorded the
glorious patriotism and chivalry of g
the Confederate soldiers throughout ?
the length and breadth of the South- g
land they so heroically defended. In g
Florida the veterans will find the same ?
cordial respect and unbounded hospi- g
tality which awaits them at all points ?
in the Southland. ?
"The formality of assuring a wel- ?
come to the veterans who will attend $
the Jacksonville Reunion is quite un- ?
necessary; but it may be permitted g
me to say that I shall always consider ^
it one of the most pleasing and gratifying
events' occurring during my term ~
