My 5-'rf Y, l birthplace was .Bearer 'these great me' tropolis, but at the time mentioned, I was so unfortunate as to lose both of my parents ina railroad accident. Then my uncle in' Westvxfood offered me a home, which I readily accepted. r Frank and I' grew .up as schoolmates, 'Falthough he was three years my junior. H Infact, our friendship ripenedinto an affection more like that of 'brothers , than of chums.

One day, during a recitation, he was drawn into a heated argument with another student, Albert Campwell, by name, who had come from Frankis home town. Campwell was of a de- cidedly sullen disposition, and, even as boys, when attending the same school, he had always held a feeling of enmity toward Frank, probably petty jealousy of the latter's superior ability.

Therefore, the next afternoon, according to the ap- pdintment, Frank entered the office, but the'Dean was not presentj i l'HVery strange, muttered Frank, 'CI must have made a mistake in the time.
