THE STOLEN MONEY: OR, A SIIKPHERD'S AUT0B1GRAPHY.

FROM HOUSEHOLD WORDS.

name ia Ppencer

in ihe Parish of Rotkdnie in Lincolnahire My father was a ahepherd in the service of Mr. Wyhain. one of those large farmer* who rent and cultivate above a thousand acrec. There were two colleges dose together half way up the hill which roue at the back of the f..rm home we lived in one. and ihe foreman in Ihe other. I had several brothers and aistera. aomft older some younger than mveelf. but aornehow we did noi g»»t«»n well together, no: thai w- quarrelled exnctly. but they were strong and active, while I waa a weak and thoughtful, though not exactly a aicklv child away from the boialeroua game* in which I inoatly always got worsted, they u*ed to taunt and call me oulky. And so it happened that I grew lo love little Mnry the foreman'a daughter, better than my own relations.

The foreman was a very kind man. and KO fond of book)! that he was eateemed in the village a# a gteal scholar a« Mr. Wyhatn hiniai'lf. which did nol perhaps require a great deal ol learning Mary waa hia tirsi and only child, her mother having left this world ot sorrow in the act of bringing her into it. and th* father doated on her aa if the love he had fall (or the mother had been bequeathed by her—if the poor can be aai«! lo bequeath anything—lo the child. So it happened that when he anw how fond Mary and I were of each other, thai he look me it!*o to'his heart, and I used lo go into his collage every evening alier the the day was over and share in Mary's lessons. It made me happy to lenm reading and writing, and when the foreman aaw how eagerly I took my book he grew mill fonder of me.

Thoae were happy days when Mary and I used to wander about the field* or ail aheN tered from Ihe *un hy Ihe leaves of some old tree, spelling ovAr the few books we could obtain or stroll down to the watermill whme distanl rumbling could be heard at the cot' tag«». now fishititf lor minnows in tho irouh led waters, now lying still, aide by side, talking. or rather thinking aloud lo each other, with ail lite dreaminess of romantic childhood.

We always talked aboul ihe wildest things we had heard or read of while idling about that old mill. The wunderiug* ol Christian in the Ptltfrim'a Progress—that which ia quite nnlupiti to the vague ideas of children the life-like adventures of Robinson Crusoe the deeds of ihe Old Testament kings and warrtora furnished an exhaustles* store of provicious for our dreams.

There was something about the old mill, perhaps the effect of the tunny stream rip* ling so gently to the point where it dashed itself so madly into the dark, deep gulf below perhaps ihe atory of a young man who had come to ihe neighborhood on a-fishing excursion a few weeks before, and who had been tracked in while bathing, and crushed by thai fearful wheel whioh gave a gloomy tinge to all our thought* about it. It waa the mora melancholy passages of the book we read, which mnel charmed and fascinated us as we gased on the troubled araiers. and we had got it into our heads, how or why I cannot lell. that the gulf immediately below our feet waa falhomle*».

These are my summer reminiaoanae* of childhood how the winter days passed I do not remember. That period of my life aeems to have been all summer.

Had it not been for Mary's father I should never have learned to read or write, for thera waa no school in the neighborhood. I do not wish to apaalt evil of my better*, but I cannot think thai our clergyman quite did his duty to us. They said that he was very rich, that he received a thousand pounds year lor his leaching us the way to Heaweo. which ha certainly did once a week lit the church, for it waa very good ha preached— and always the same.

But he never vbitttl tha poor unlets they sent for him on their death-beds, for hi* time was much occu^jed in country sporta* of whioh be seemed very food* I soppoee b# felt such atnusetJfeni aae*a«ary to drive a«*y the monotony of hie life, for there being n-» gentleman educated like himaeH within many miles, ha waa without aay companions but ihe neighboring farmers, and was perhaps almost driven for company*a sake to iotwwl himself in their pursuits- But still. 1 think he would have done hit duty better had ha attended a little mora to the poor* for reltg Ion. which is a gtaat deal to the rah, Is a*to them. did not sum mm of

Not go to sdbool! then how did you team to r^adf •Fa'her taught us. ma'am/ snswered Mary. who was chief speaker. •But why do you not go lo school?*

Here her brother came op. •School.* said he 'school! I would not have a school in mv parish on snv account If vnu educate the poor, you will make them all infidels snd Chartists, or else Disinters, which is just ss bad.' Aod ha took his sister off.

Doubtless, the clergymen was much better informed on most points than I can protend lo be, but I cannot help thinking thai he was wrong in this instance. If he had more experience among the poor. I think he would have altered his opinion, and I remember two cases which seem to confirm this idea of mine. One waa Joe Smith, who used lo declaim againat the wickedness of fox-hunting, snd when saked why he considered that amusement incompatible with future salvation, replied thai it was written in ihe Bible lhal if any man would glorv. he should gl«»ry in Ihe Lord, whereas fox hunters gloried in an animal's tail! I d*» not think Joe Smith would have talked such nonsense had he been able to read and write The other

was lhal of Tom Johnson, who

left the Church and joined ihe Jumpers, because on passing the parsonage one Sunday morning he saw ihe clergyman at his wiudow desecrating the Lord's Da^by-sha-ving. It is almost needless to ssy that Tom Juhnson wtfs 'no scollard.' Our parson wss one of ihe old aqbool. Since his day. I know that the clergy know their duly much belter.

Those days of dreamy happiness did nol last long, though the weakness of my frame saved me several years of toil, and it was tijfl until I was twelve years old lhal began to help my father in his duties as shepherd holding his salves when he "doctored" Ihe «»heep. or helping ihe dog lo keep them in a corner.

I rememher how proud I fell when I got my first wages and I was glad lo feel lhal I was Jf some use to father and mother. So fur some lime I was still very happv. for my work was light and I found many opportunities for studying the books 1 managed one way and another to pick up Mary. too. ollen kept me company while 1 was watch ing the sheep.

But il was in spring when I set lo work, and when summer and autumn had passed, winter set in. I began lo feel the real pain of labor. My work was in the turnip fMd. lopping and tailing the turnips for the sheep, and dragging ihe roots *oul of the ground when lhey were eaten close. This work was severe in frosty wealher when lite

very ground was tlry and hard. I still took ev erv opportunity of improving my mind, but the freshneivs. the romance, the spring of lile wa* gone for ever.

Years followed years I hardly counted litem, every day was like the former one, all waa toil! loil! toil! Yet I was better off than try lellow-laborers. for nad I not Sundav I They loo had that day lo aleep and yawfi over but to me every seventh day brought afar greater pleasure than the mere respite Irom labor I #tid tny books, and Mary to inlk about them.

When 1 had reached the age of twentylour my father was persuaded by a gentleman from Louth lo emigrate to America, taking ihe rest of his family with him. They wanted me lo go. ton, end then it was then I discovered how very dear Mary was to me Broutfhi ip as wehaH been iogeiher.it seemed quite natural to me thai we should marry, and so when I mentioned the matter, it seemed so lo her. Then came the question, whether we should go out too but I bad read a book which set forth ihe hardships of emigrants in so strong a light, that I could not bear the thqu«hl of exposing Mary to them- Would lo God I had never read that book!

When my father aris gAna.'l succeeded him as Mr .Wvham'a shepherd, and short ly afterwards Mary and I w^ht married. We lived in ihe .aame oottage with Iter father, andjlhe memory of the fouraucceeding years seem flooded in alight from Heaven. My wagea waa not such as to enable us to do much but with care I waa generally able input by something every Saiurdsy. to be laid up in store against our old age in the Louth Savings Bauk.

In four years, we had a boy and two girie ihe latter atout. rosy little cherubs enough, but the boy. the eldest was aickly from his birth, and at the end of hia third year, jual ss wa began to think wa should rear bun be was taken from us. It eras a ssn blow, ihe firat we bad sustained, and tha beginning of our troubles.

Soon aftet that Mr. Wyham died, snd hia son took the management of the farm. The old man had bean a good master to me and my father before me. though rather harsh snd proud in his manner. Ilia son

WAS

priciou*. tyrannical and spendthrift. His exiravaganoe often put him to shift* for money which he tried to raise by grinding bis laborers. Ha raised the rent of our cottage, and tried to lower my wage* but threat ened to leave him. and he knew what I was worth too well to a!b*w it to come to that For I was worth a great deal to him he was not so guod a former as his father and I might havo neglected my business, or even cheated him downright when I bad sold his sbeap at tha markets for him without his ha ing any tha wiser. But though ha did nut lower my aragea* there was a thousand little suspicious waya of making a man's eark unpleasant ia him. awl of these ha eras a master. I should have oertainljr left his aer vice* bad it not been for tha memory af Wa fsthet. and tbe yearning I foil towards the oonage. tba old miU. the fields, everything belonging to tha plana where bad head all my lUeTBvary tree, ewy hedge was frs»gM with some asaaeiaaaa.

was fairly housed for if the rich only car* ed sa much for the interests of the poor a* the poor often do for theirs. England smuld ba a far4»sppier country. I worked all da\ at •"pi« king** the aheaves up to the wagno until from the great heal, snd being unaccustomed to that kind of work Lwas almost exhausted.

One ol the men suggested ibst I should iske hia piece on the wsgon. to receive snd arrsnge the sheaves whioh is lighter ls«k vt giving him my fork I got up The change of employment eras a relief, and ihe wagon was soon piled up with sheaves to a great height, when I felt a sudden faintnesa. m\ fool slipped, snd I fell to the grouod. mv «rriking one of the shafts of ihe wagon in ihe fall I was cstried home and laid senseless on a bed. from which I could not rise for four, months. I hsd sustained a severe internal injury, which made it doubtful wbeiher I should ever ba able lo work again* and oh. the agony of body snd mind I suffered sa I lay on lhal bed! whsl was to be come of Msry and the children? It ws« true. Mr Wyham sp«dte as I had never heard him before, saying that I had received the injury in his service, end that he would not forget it I believed him sincere at the lime, but knew the fickleness of his temper loo well lo place much reliance on his promises.

I got over that long illness belter thsn the locior expected, snd was side lo go about my work again six months slier the accident Bui I was not the same man that I had been before whenever I exerted my otrenglh lo any great degree, such as in lift ing heavy weights, or wslking to any distant market. I felt sort of sinking in my *ide and a fainlness would come over me. Still. I managed to do my work and had lhal been all. might still have been as happy ass poor man can expect to be: but sick ness seemed t« have seiiod on Ihe fsmily. First Mary father died- Then poor Mary herself |e|| into a bad stsle of health. She never complained but bore up wonderfully, hui one could see how she sltered from month to month: indeed we both grew old SO rapidly, lhal when I wss forty-five and «he forty three, people used to think us past sixty. Our girls grew up and went out lo service, slid parting wilh them was another sad trial lo poor Mary, for they were her only companions duriug the long days while wss in the fields.

We went on. working snd laying by. "iihtil I had reached my fil'tielh year. Every day I lelt more and more unfitted for work, and I began to think seriously of drawing our savings now amounting lo fifty pounds and settling in some small shop in the vil lag* about four miles off. There was a capital opportunity for doing to just then, for Dame H^rland. who had kepi the general shop ih»jre for Ihe last ten years, was just dead, and her son wished lo sell the goods for forty pounds. Mary and 1 talked the matter over, until we at last agreed upon it: so I closed with Harlsnd, and" gsve Mr. Wham notice to look out for another hrphard. He tried all he could to dissuade me from my purpose, for there was no signs of my failing powers in the way my work wss done. Bui I bad made up my mind, and ihe only thing remaining to be done, was to draw ihe money from the Savings Bhtik and hsnd it over to Harland, and take possession of the ootiage.*^.

It was on bright autumn mornf^^lhat! started off to Louth on my last visit to the Savings Bank. I had given notice a fortnight before that I was sboul lo draw out the the whole sum. for I thought we should require Ihe other ten pounds for the expense •i! moving snd settling down in the shop I remember how glad and I fear proud. I t'elt to think how Isrge a sum I hsd ssved out of stitsll earnings. How often the thougnt of ihst board had prevented rify yielding the temptation of turning into the puhlio house as I passed on a very hot dusty day. And now I waa to reap the reward of my thrift, my self-denial, my forty yeara' mil! The long road 'seemed as notning iny mind was so oooupied with vsin glorious thoughts of the past, and pleaaitig hopes for the remainder of my days, that 1 wss in

Louth before 1 was swsre of it. The Savings Bank wss only opened on Ssturday morning*, so thai there were a great many people paying and receiving mooey, and had to wait some time.

While tlsnbing outaido the door I was accosted by Giles Daviee. a shepherd in the county whom I had often met at cattle fairs. I did not like him much, he was an

ignorant, abusive fellow, and too fond by half of the public house: but on tha morning I was too bsppy to ba otherwise than cordis! with anybody, i-was surprised to see

Wa did not get our tanner till near three o'clock, so sre started off directly afterwards for 1 had a twelve mile walk before me, and wished to gat h«»me before dark.

It grew desk when sre had got witbin about three astlea of home, and Davis pro. posed that we should take a est through iba fields, we could do by dimbtng otsr a gate, though there was no regular fompath. I hasfitatad, at fir*, but I eras very tired and we eoold certainly aave a mile ar aa by crocsing tha country. I went. Wbaa had creased twa fields wa ware slapped by a hedge, through a gefKia wbieh we had to creep. It waa now quite dusk.

I do not remember how I got home I managed to crawl to the cottage door eoroeHOW.

Mary shoeked with terror when sh opened it. and saw me «n the threshold looking «o wild so despair stricken, so eov •*red with blood. •Never miiul me Mary.' I groaned, 'the •wooer 1 ilia the better. 1 have been robbed Mary, robbed of all!* But Mary though* more of my hurts than of the money, and vet how we both counted on it.

II was several weeks before I recovered •he blows on the head, aggravated as the 'ever was hy despair. 1 got over it howev er. sod went about my work sg«|n. Mr Wyham nol having been sble lo supply my place as vet. We lived in hopes that Davies would be csughi: but no. he mntiived •o make clear off wiih his booty and it was supposed he escaped out of the country.

I worked on for five yesrs longer, growing more and more infirm every year. I have not goi much more lo tell. When I have transcribed what passed one morning two yesrs sgo. between myartl snd Mr. Wyhsm in his study. I have done. 'Takessest Ned.* began Mr. Wyham. 'I fear your asthma is very troublesome.' •It is. sirVJ 'You seenKto suffer from tfiat Ismeneas.*

"Very true, sir." ••1 have been looking shout for snother ahephiyrd. and have met with a man whom I think likely to suit me, but you need not turn out of your collage ••God bless you. sir.

Where am I to go?" "I am afraid to the workhouse."

They let »rv and me see each other in the wnrkhtu«e sometime*.

The praises due to tho talented Superior of lite Academy and her assistants we dare not offer: Silence ia the best eulngium we can' give to virtue for Its deeds.
