The Regeneration of Sarah 
By Beulah Heaston and Anna Nixon 
(Continued from page 1087) 
Margaret, who was about to return to 
the house, paused at the mention of the 
horse; now she turned and sped across 
the field. 
“Alice—Sarah !” she called breathless¬ 
ly, rushing into the house. “Jim Scott’s 
out there, and he’s going to take Prince.” 
“Oh, he wouldn’t dare!” and Alice 
paled. “What shall we do!” 
“Call up David Porter,” suggested 
Sarah, running to the window which 
commanded a view of the hay field. 
Alice seized the suggestion eagerly and 
soon had Mrs. Porter on the line. “Is Mr. 
Porter there?’ she asked. “Cone to 
Westfield? When do you expect hirn 
home? Not till evening? Thank you.” 
Then turning to her sisters: “Oh, girls, 
he isn’t at home. I’m going to the field.” 
Sarah stood at the window, looking 
thoughtfully after Alice. Suddenly she 
turned to Margaret. “What coat did 
mother wear that day she went to pay for 
Prince—can you remember?” she asked. 
“Her old gray one.” 
“I think I’ll go up to the attic and have 
a look through the pockets of that coat,” 
and Sarah left the room. 
trees were laden with fine fruit, and they 
hoped to realize a snug sum from its sale. 
Instead of using the apple money to pay 
what they owed at the bank, they had 
planned to buy another cow or two and 
to add a few sheep to their flock ; as they 
believed this would be more profitable 
than to sell their surplus hay and grain. 
It had not occurred to them to.seek a 
market outside of Westfield for the ap¬ 
ples, and Ben went to each of the stores 
in turn, in an effort to dispose of the 
crop. lie and Alice had decided that they 
should not accept less than a dollar a 
bushel, for there were few apples in the 
neighborhood of Westfield that year. 
“We’re paying 75 cents a bushel,” said 
the first grocer whom Ben approached. 
“I think we ought to have more than 
that. Apples are scarce this year, and 
these are unusually fine,” returned Ben, 
displaying several specimens. 
“I can get all I want from over be¬ 
yond Blairsville at 75 cents.” 
“Not as good as these.” 
“Yes, these are nice apples; but 75 
cents is our price,” said the grocer, with 
finality in his tone.

CHAPTER IV. 
Alice noted, as she hastened across the 
field that the horses still were hitched to 
the wagon ; and Ben and Jake were work¬ 
ing away as though nothing had hap¬ 
pened. Pausing at a little distance she 
heard Scott blustering at Ben about the 
horse. Though Ben apparently gave no 
heed to the tirade, Alice could see that be 
was controlling his anger with difficulty. 
Scott, who at heart was a coward, was 
trying to find out how far he could go. 
When Ben made no reply, the man in¬ 
ferred that he was frightened ; and strid¬ 
ing forward to Prince he began to un¬ 
buckle the traces. 
“Stop that!” commanded Ben, angrily. 
“I’ll stop when you pay me,” and 
Scott was about to proceed with the un¬ 
hitching, when Ben. grasping his fork for 
a club, made as though he would start 
toward him. 
“Ben !” cried Alice; and she ran for¬ 
ward and caught his arm. 
The hoy lowered the fork. “I’ll not 
strike him,” he said, ‘but it isn’t because 
he doesn’t deserve it—the confounded 
sneak!” 
“Aw, Alice! Why didn’t you let Ben 
whack him one?” protested Joe from the 
top of the load. Jake was disappointed, 
also; lie had rather hoped that the alter¬ 
cation would end in blows. 
“What do you mean by such a move, 
Mr. Scott?” demanded Alice indignantly. 
“I’ve given you plenty of time—plenty 
of time. You’ve had two months to come 
around with that receipt, and I ain’t seen 
it yet. But I guess there was a pretty 
good reason why you didn’t bring it—I 
guess you was mistaken about having 
one,” and Scott smiled an ugly, sneering 
smile. 
At this moment Alice saw Margaret 
racing across the field, frantically waving 
a slip of paper above her head. “The re¬ 
ceipt—the receipt!” cried Alice exulting- 
ly. “Margaret’s found the receipt!” And 
Margaret, breathless and excited, dashed 
up to the waiting group and thrust the 
receipt into her sister’s hand. 
“I guess we were not mistaken, after 
all.” triumphed Ben. 
Scott, when he saw that the game was 
up, tried to cover his discomfiture with a 
sickly smile. “You surely didn’t think I 
meant to take the horse, I hope? It 
wasn’t nothing hut a joke on my part.” 
“Oh yes—a great joke!” was Ben’s 
sarcastic rejoinder. 
“Well, I’m sorry you’re going to look 
at it that way, when it wasn’t anything 
hut a joke,” and Scott feigned a deeply 
injured air. “I guess I’ll be going.” 
The rain clouds were getting bigger 
every minute, hut the lmy-making was de¬ 
layed while Margaret, her blue eyes danc¬ 
ing with excitement, told of the finding 
of the receipt.

Legal Questions. 
Rights of Tenant. 
Since living here during 15 years have 
spent over $300 for flowers, shrubs, trees, 
etc. If we have to go away can we not 
take what we have planted here? Also 
how much time are we allowed in which 
to move, until next May or April, or how 
long? E. L. M. 
New Jersey. 
It is quite probable that your tenancy 
is from year to year, athough you do not 
give enough facts to make this certain. 
If this be so, the generally accepted rule 
is that either side must give the other 
at least six months’ notice to terminate 
the lease before the end of each year 
period. In any event if your tenancy 
is uncertain they must give you the priv¬ 
ilege of coming upon the land to reap the 
crops you have sown. You should come 
to some definite understanding with them 
as soon as your crops are harvested, and 
provide for liberal written notice to each 
other. The right to take shrubs, etc., 
away depends generally upon the two 
facts that the leasehold is uncertain and 
the crops are the result of annual cul¬ 
tivation. Under your circumstances, as 
you are not in the nursery business, these 
shrubs will probably be held to be part 
of the realty, and go with the land, and 
you may not take them. 
Line Fences. 
A bought a farm in 1912. B had 
bought the farm adjoining previous to 
1912. When A bought B informed A 
that his half of fence to build and keep 
in repair was the north half. B had re¬ 
moved his half of fence and has not been 
rebuilt previous to 1914. B sold a strip 
off his south and extending north 400 feet. 
After B had sold he asked A to help build 
his half of fence, A to pay for one-half 
cost of fence. A refused but did pay for 
one-half of the 400 feet. Was A right in 
refusing to pay for one-half of B’s fence. 
B has just sold all of his land adjoining 
A’s fence. Does this exempt A from 
building one-half of B’s fence less the 
400 feet that B had sold in 1913. 
Ohio. g. c. 
The laws of Ohio provide that the 
owners of adjoining lands shall build, 
keep up and maintain in good repair in 
equal shares all partition fences between 
them, unless otherwise agreed upon by 
them in writing and witnessed by two 
persons. You do not state whether you 
have already built your portion of the 
fence as set out by B or not, and your 
agreement, if any, is not in writing. If 
your portion is not built, before going 
ahead you should come to some agreement 
with the owners as to which portion each 
is to build and keep in repair. If 
you have done nothing but help with your 
share of the 400 feet you are probably not 
exempt from sharing the cost of building 
the fence between you and the new 
owner. * m. d.
