BEN C. TRUMAN,
Andrew Jackson Hatbaway, in 1849, was a well to do young larwer of Iowa, with a wife precisely suoh as a thriving young farmer should possess a bright boy twelve and a sweet-tempered daughter of between ten and eleven years of age constituted the two domestic idols of the Hathaway altar. Their names were, William Henry Harrison Hathaway and Janet Dalrymple Hathway. The lathe* of the elder Hathaway had served ari a Heutfcnant under Jackson at New Orleans, an 1 belonged to a prime family of Davidson Qbunty, Tennessee, which had formerly lived in Virginia, and had good revolutionary blood in its veins. Andrew Jacksou Hathaway's father's belpmee* came from a representative Rhode Islafti family, ana, according to the ajchlve Providenoe Plantations, a family renowned for its deeds of valor daring',th» "times that tried meu's souls." Tbltf little bit or pedigiee has nothing, much to do with the sketdh thin follojrs, although pedigree sometimes ^hfelpa man as it almost-always- does a baNe. And, again,'it is as well to show that our Hathaway lamlly had a pedigree that any American might be proud of, for Mrs. Hathaway, too, came from good revolutionary stock, with an even divide of Massachusetts and South Carolina in the make-up. Her name was Vasbti, she having b*en christened after an old maiden aunt of Fall Rtver, Massachusetts. Andrew abd "Vashti grew up on neighboring farms in Ohio, where both William Henry and Janet Dalrymple were born. It may not be uainteresting righC ber& to statfe that the young love vbft^xi|te4 betareen Andrew and Vashti was. not entirely uninterrupted—on account of the youth of theparttes, however nothing else—and, whether they cared or not whether the "Man in the Moon wa* Looking," they eaclt kept an eye upon the nocturnal movements of "the old Stormer" (as Andrew fellctitously nicknamed his, sweetheart's suspecting sire), as night after night they exchanged sentiment, and souaetnlng else, ovdr the front yard gate.
It was upon one of these delightful occasions that Andrew and Vashti had ed their troth, as bad Lucy and
pligbted Lord Ri
Rutherford almost two centuries before, by breaking a silver c^ln be tween them, and had mutually invoked malediction on whichever of the two Bhould be false to the compact.
The reader will perceive, now, why the Hsthaway's named their daughter Janet Dalrymple. And it may not be out of place—Indeed, it Isn't—to state that, or all Scott's heroines, the "Bride of Lainmerinoor" is perhaps the most widely known. Her sad story, you know, is, in the main, true. The maiden's name was not Lncy, as Sir Walter has it, but Janet—Janet Dalrymple—who was a daughter of Lord Stair. She and Lord Rutherford had plighted their troth, bad broken a silver coin between them, and bad invoked malediction on whichever of the two should be false to the compact. The parents of Lady Janet vehemently insisted on her marrying Dunbar of Baldocn. The mother acted in the most cruel manner iu /onjiog her daughter to this umtcb. Janet, broken-ISe*rted aqd helpless, managed to perfect an interview with her lover, and sobbed out a text from Numbers, xxx.. 2-5. as an excuse tot her obedience to her Imperious and unrelenting parents' commands. The lcvors parted in sorrow— Ratherford in great anger, and Janet overwhelmed with grief. The former had «ot In bim the spirit of Young Locbinvar, nor the latter the wit to ran away with him. The poor thing was, in fact, badly frightened. She was carried to church to be wed in a »eral-era*ed and more than half dead state. At night a hurricane of shrieks came from her bridal chamber, where the bridegroom wwr fonnd on the floor, profusely bleeding from a sUb and the bride sat near, in her night clothes, bidding those who had rushed Jo the scene, "Take up vour bouny bridegroom!" Janet died in three weeks, insane. Dunbar of Baldoon recovered, bat never opened his lips on the causes which led to the tngedy. Lord Ratherford, the lover, died childless in 1685. It was a queer fancy of the Hathaways, this naming of Janet. Calling the boy after Harrison was entirely proper, and extremely American. It Is as well to state, to keep np the connection, that Andrew and Vashti were married at the home of the latter in Ohio, in 1835 And lew's father and mother both died In 1840, and Andrew inherited the Hathaway far so. In 1S46 he and bis family me red to Iowa, and here Hathaway farmed it untU the winter of 1S49 5#.
I was a bitter cold day in December, 1849. The snow was piled six feet high, on a level, and the mercury marked 24 degrees below sero. That day Deacon Hathaway—for Andrew had foined the
village church and had been made a th —. by •nd the realisation of some other mis
Jar thereof—had two snapped into pieces bj

marked by no distinguishing exhibitions «f serenity. Indeed, so exeroised was Ha'hsway that, while In the aot of palling off his boots, be got enraged kicked one of them clean through, the window.
This
little
episode
elicited a broad
grin from William Henry, And the remark that he thought that Jaeksan—a white mule, not the head oI the famllj —bad kickM over the uorn crib Jauet glanced sympathetically at her mother —who had burst Into tears simultaneously with the flight of the boot aforesaid—and then jolpe^ that good woman iu her demonstration Of grief. Andrew took in the domestic tableau at oncet and, dispatching WiMtetn Henry for the boot, patted YashU. upon the forehead, and said: "I'm not iita'i %t you, my dear, so don't cry." "I know you're .not mad at me, Andrew," responded Mrs. Hatbaway 'but yourself so inucb, «e things very unpleasant at' times. Yon ought to be ashamed cf yourself—1 aay this very reeliugly, Andrew, fori love you, oh, so very, very much—but here are Billy and Janny growing np so rast and, my dear, yon ought to at least set them no bad examples. Only a we?k ago you came home in just such another fit, and tore op yout back suspender buttons in yodr anger.''. -t-.i "But, Vashti-" "Oh, von alfcrfyft have some excuse. I know things don't go always as you would like to have them but there's no use in your getting mad—and especially before the children. It nearly breaks Janny's heart xo see you in a passion, and Billy, as yon must have noticed, has already commenced to make fan of yon. Another thing, now that we are on the subject, let me tell ypu thai you are not only violent, and very violent, too, in your temper, at tiaies, but you are very obstinately set in your ways. You never consult me, either, in any of .your movements, ana when you make up your mind to do a thing, nothing except disappointment or disaster can change you. Don't you think it would be better, first, to make me acquainted with your projects, or some of them, and let me put my little stock of wisdom and womanly plans together with your hopes and undertakings? 1 wo heads, you know, Andrew, are said to be better than one, and it strike* me that husband and wife should be/ull partners and it would be so pleasant, too. I want to share with you, as you ought to know, In all your pleasures and griefs, in all your prosperities and adversities. I want to be a part or you in all things, and at all times and plaoes. I know you love me, abd I know we get along pretty well, generally. And, were it not for your quick temper and obstinacy, we would be the happiest couple in the otld. 0QM May tblsffrcnp the most ovlng standpoint, Andrew, ana I day it for your own good, and for the happi*esjfci*M Juttare, brosj^erky of ^ou, my dear huabada, myself, ana our dear, loving children."

The silence whioh followed Mrs. Hathaway's speech was broken by Janet, who inquired: "Papa, mamma says we are going to start for California in the spring. Is that really-so?" "That is really so," responded Mr. Hathaway. "Yes, dear girl, we start for3aHfornla in the spring, interrupted Mrs. Hatbaway. "Your father apprized me of his intention a few days ago, aijd that settles it. Neither of us knows anything about that far-off oonntry, although the St. Louis papers are full of glowing descriptions of the beautiful land of flowers and gold. Lots of Iowa folks are going in the spring, and I don't mind breaking up and going' West once more." "Thoy teH me that you can pick up gold in the rivers and on the roads out ibere in California," slid William. "I don't believe that, but I do believe it's a better place than Iowa it is too cold here I don't like the winters here at all." "You are right, William," remarked Mr. Hatbaway, "the winters in California are as mild as they are in Florida, so Fremont says, and that is one reason why I want to go there. It is an, old saying tht a t-ollrag stone gathers no moss, know, and it may be a true ,qpe but I have rolled so long, and so oftep, that I am going to try it once more. From the little I can gleau from the newspapers, and from other sources of information, I am of the opinion that California is just the country for us to go to."
Spring came, and May found the Hathaways. with two good teams and wagons, half a dozen steers, two or three cows, two saddle borses, and a good stock or provisions, on their way to California.
The little party had -good luck, losing none of their stock except the cows, ana meeting neither hostile Indians nor thieving white, men.
Fr6m the m^wnent the party crossed the Missouri river, however, Bathaway's mode of aftstlon as never Interfered with any degree of success. He consulted neither Mrs. Hathaway nor any other living person. He made and broke oamps wheo and wherever he pleased watered bis stock whenever he saw fit, and sought advice of xo one or no tbintt except« map and a dial.
Uponleaving Salt .Lake, Mrs. Hathaway hazarded a suggestion touching a choice of roads, apd wil lied to the however, st mother and son Hathaway said: "As we are evenly iKVided as to whioh is the best road, Andrew, I will yield, as I always do but I would like to aak yon one question: Suppose had not yielded my preference, and suppose both Billy and Janny bad preferred my word what would you have done under the circumstances?" "What would I have done? Why, my good woman, I would have gone right on just as I am—just as if no one were here but myself. I am at the head of this expedition, and it mast go my way. I don't propose to take advice from an old woman and a couple of children in this section of the wilderness—not as the roads are. I don't consider your judgment good in the premises, however much you may consult authorities. I have got a map and a general description of the country through which we are traveling, and I am going to stick to that compass if I never reach California." "Why. Andrew!" "No, there's no why Andrew! about it. It is common sense decision, and there can't be any appeal. Til say this, right now, though: whenever, in your wisdom yon deem my course of pilgrimage uncertain or unsatisfactory, you can fro some other way—or take the back track altogether and yon may take the whole outfit with yon, except the poorest sad-

Why, Andrew Hathaway, speeohl" ejaculated the wile, the ohildren themselves are amased
you." And all sobbed bitterly exoept that obstinate man, Andrew Jaokaon Hathaway,
It was several dayB before perfect harmony again prevailed In the Hathaway oauip, wblob, however, when it did set in, ia«ted until the party arrived at a point on the Huraboidt desert, where the Lassen trail intersects that of the Carson.
At this point had congregated some forty odd persons, all of whpm but Hatbaway, had concluded to take the Lassen trail. Mrs. tlathaway was aware that her husband's map pointed out the Carson road as the one to be followed. She, however, preferred the Lsasen trail tor the reason that a good crowd was going thai way and, further, because both William and Janet had besought her to prevail upon their father to change bis mind. Thus fortified, Mrs. Hathaway approached her husband, who was seatedf upon a pile of blanket repairing a bridle.
It was a lovely morning in September, and all things in natureseemed to smile. The imperial orb rode up the eastern sky and flung its splendors upon the majestic Sierra, wblob rose like battlements .before it. There was inspiration in the scene and sublimity lu the solitude of that vast landscape untouched by hand of art.
Mrs. Hathaway opened the conversation by saying, in dulcet tones: "Andrew, I was just thinking, as I gazed npon those magnificent elevations before us, of the greatness of Qod. I have been in the most perfect state of enchantment for an hour, not only in surveying the mountains before us and the desert behind us, but meditating upon the conspicuous creations or our heavenly Father. I never felt my littleness so much before, and, in tbe contemplation or the mysteries whioh transcend the scope ot earthly penetration, recall an aneodote or your father's, the effeet of whioh has for many years been engraved on the tablets of my heart— I mean the one he used to tell of old Jobn Randolph of Virginia. Randolph was walking, one evening, accompanied by a favorite bov. you remember. All at once, arrested oy a magnificent sunset in tba't inoomparable section of Virginia known as tbe Shenandoah Valley, he violently seized the nigger and said: 'Sam, if any man ever tells you there is no Qod, tell him that John Randolph says he lies The same sentiment seems to take possession of me as I gaze upon the Sierra Nevada Mountains. By the by, Andrew, there is a man in the party here who has macTe the trip over the Sierra several times. He calls tbe mountains before u,s the jam ol the golden valley, bat says there is no time to be lost in getting "bver them, as the snow generally commences to descend in October, and sometimes rails ^o a depth or twenty odd reet. I wish you would have a little chat with*him after you have mended that bridle, as he is greatly opposed to the Carson road. He says it is all dust and alkali." "He doesj eh Well, you just tell Mr. Knows-It-All that I like dust and alkali, and «for that very reason, ir for no other, I am going to take the Carson road. I hair thought your John Randolph story and other utterances were a blind to get at tbe softer part or me, but you can't do it," replied Hathaway, roughly. "But," said Vashti, feelingly, "Billy and Janet both want to go by the Lassen trail. Tbe whole party, in fact, start off in that direction in au hour." "All right, let them start, that don't interfere with my plans in the least. My map directs me to go by the Carson road, and I am going that way if I go alone." "Then you may go alone, Andrew Hathaway!" said Vashti, with unmistakable force and composure. "What! you take the Lassen trail and me tbe Carson?" "That is precisely the situation, unless yoa oonsent to yield for once in your life, Mr. Hathaway," rejoined Vashti. "And William and Janet, they—?" "Qo with their mother by the Lassen trail," added Mrs. Hathaway. "But you will become the laughing stock of "the Wbole party." "You are tbe laughing stock of the wboie party, and I am heartily ashamed of vou." "Bat this is a serious turn affairs have taken, and you may regret it," said Andrew. "It Is most serious, Mr. Hathaway, and I regret that circumstances force me to act as I do," replied his wife. "Then do as I want you to. I would rather stay right here all winter than take the Lassen trail." "And I would remain right here all winter and tbe summer following before I would go one foot by the Carson road. My mind is made up I propose to start in an hour. What do you say?" "I say you go your way and I will go mine."
In less than an hour Mrs. Hathaway and her two children were on the Lassen road, and Andrew, on an old saddle horse, moved Sorrowfully injanother direction.
Neither party looked back until a gap of many miles bad been opened, each expeetlng that the other would yield. At last, Andrew turned bis animal about, and, t9 his utter astonishment, no living object met his gaze in that vast expanse. His heart sank within him great, scalding tears chased eaoh other down his rugged obeeks despair took possession of his soul, and the miserable man cried in agonizing accents: •'Divorced iu tbe desert! My God! what have I done
Then he wheeled about and pursued his course, the very Incarnation of misery. Once he turned and rode a mile or two on a canter the other way. Bat the mountain breezes blew tbe dust before him, and be at times became completely enveloped In clouds of alkali sand and othef sedimentary matter. With nerves and reason almost shattered, be went Into camp weary and alone tbe first night of tbe separation. In tbe meantime Mrs. Hsthaway and b')r children had joined tbe party that h»l started In advanoe of them, and had &« .long as pleasantly as coald have be* expected under tbe circumstances. William firmly believed that his father would join tbem daring tbe night, and when morning came and found him not, be burst into tears and wept bitterly. The mother was overwhelmed with grief, bat only once did she give way to her feelings, and that was when Janet, at breakfast, said: "I dreamed all night of my papa, last night. Ob. my poor, dear papa I wonder where be is?
These words went like daggers to the wife'sheart,and then she wished to God that she bad taken the Carson trail. She even went so far as to consalt with ber son iqpon the feasibility of retaining bat William opposed socb a course as adding folly to folly.

her children arrived at Sacramento in good health and without the loss of an animal. She sold ber entire oatfit for several hundred dollars which amount,
w,
added to tbe thousand odd tbst she bad safely tucked away in the lining of bar dress, she Invested in furniture, etc,, and at once set up business as a hotel keeper. By dint of industry and perse* veraQoe, oottpled with fluab_times in a ana about Saoramento, Mrs. Hsthaway not only made lota of amassed a (fortune.
not only made lota of monye, but reall ~"p to 1882 both William and Janet assisted ber In her household duties. Then she put tbem both to school, where Janet remained until she graduated with honor, In 1857 William, who hadelerked with sueoesssLM»ry»villa, went toSaq Jfrsnclsco aaf engaged In tl\e hardware business 'for himself, and married a Boston IsHy the-following year. Janet, in 1658, married rieb farmer of Santa Clara coun(y, and has lived, to see children and grand children grow up around ber. Mrs. Hathaway still lives, residing ^Jtb ber daughter, at San Jose. And raw met with hard lnck from the start. Tbe third day after his separation bis horse fell down and died, and be footed it into the mines of Northern California, taking out his first dust on the Feather River. Qnoe he acoumalated over $5,000, and built a Baw mill, which was destroyed by a storm a few months after, Then he got together 12 000, and commenced merchandising in Grass Valley, but a fire soon swept all of bis property away. Then be went down into Southern California, and from there he drifted into New Mexico. At the commencement of hostilities betweeu tbe North and the South, Hathaway was driving a stage coach In Texas. Heat onoej'oined the Confederate army, and was severely wounded at Pea Ridge while cannonading a regiment under Ben McCullougb. He was again wounded at Chickamauga under Longstreet, and was subsequently taken prisoner In Virginia and sent to Colambus,Ohto. In 1866, although fiftyone years of agflt be joined the Fourteenth United States Infantry as a private, and 'came to tbe Pacific Coast again in 1867. For twelve years had Hathaway drifted about on the Pacific Coast, never learning or hearing a word ot his family—William having retired from business and gone to Europe along time before—until one day in Septam1ber, 1878, wben he saw some mentio.i or his wife's name in a San Jose paper.
The old man,lost no time in ascertaining tbe whereabouts of his long lost beloved and on tbe 19th or September, 1878, just twenty eight years from the day be was "divorced in the desert," his feeble steps carried him to the house that contained his wife. He rang tbe bell, and old Mrs. Hatbaway answered tbe summons herself. Mutual-recogni-tion was instantaneous, and, without explanations, the old couple bugged and kissed and blessed each otter.
Then each rehearsed their histories from (he time tbqy broke camp in the Humboldt desert twenty-eight years be-fof-e. Andrew told hi detail the stories of his' unfortamlt© career, and Mrs. Hathaway briefly recited ber saooqsses, not forgetting to inform him how-she had never retired' at night without pray-, ing God to return hirit to her once "more. "And, now that we arfl -reunited," said Mrs. Hathaway, witlj an affected air of earnestness, "I want to ask you one question." "What is it, my darling, what is it?" cried tbe old man, iu accents of tenderness and love. "How did you find the Carson road?" "Miserable', Vashti, miserable—all sand and alkali."
Then they embraced each other again, and were again united, after having been, twenty-eight years before, "Divorced in the Dasert."
