Excerpt from Debenham's Vow IN a tiny way-side inn, at the head of one of the wildest passes of the Snowdon range, a traveler lay dying. An invalid on his first ar rival there some six or eight weeks before. He had been slowly fading ever since; and now, toward dusk, to the low wailing of the wind, and the soft incessant patter of the rain, was passively drifting away. His wife sat by his pillow, as she had been sitting since mid-day, listening in an agony of apprehension for his every breath. His child, a tall pale boy of some eight years of age, lay coiled in a big arm-chair beside the half Opened window, watching the changing mists and thickening twilight. Nei ther spoke. In the house all was silent. There were no drovers at the tap, no wayfarers in the parlor, no wheels upon the road. The coach has passed long since, bringing neither passen gers nor letters; and save a monotonous dull sound of wood-chopping in some yard close by, and now and then the bark of a sheep-dog far away, no token of life was audible about the place. It was a low, large room, fronting west; the ceiling intersected by one heavy, black beam; the window lozenge-paned; the floor sunken and uneven. A four-post bedstead, from which the hangings had been removed, stood in one corner, and near it a smaller bed for the child.
