d by his mother in the evening in a
retired spot by the sea, sitting on the rocks with a very disconsolate
countenance.

"My son, what is the matter?"

"Mother, my heart is heavy. I cannot forget Ujarak."

"But he treated you ill, my son."

"Sometimes--not always. Often he was kind--and--and I loved him. I
cannot help it."

"Grieve not, Ippe," rejoined pleasant little Kunelik. "Do we not know
now that we shall meet him again in the great Fatherland?"

But what of the Kablunet? Shall we permit him to slip quietly through
our fingers, and disappear? Nay, verily.

He reached England. He crossed over to Ireland. There, in a
well-remembered cottage-home, he found a blooming "widow," who
discovered to her inexpressible joy that she was still a wife! He found
six children, who had grown so tremendously out of all remembrance that

by the seaman of a satisfactory state of mind. And, last, he found a
little old woman with wrinkled brow and toothless gums, who looked at
and listened to him with benignant wonder, and whose visage reminded him
powerfully of another little old woman who dwelt in the la
