A DETERMINED WOMAN.

In one of the back settlements of South
Carolina,‘ 1n the days which rendered the
names of Marion and other heroes forever
glorious in the dnnsls of their country,
dwelt a brave and devoted family of pa-
triots named Hart.

Abijah and Abigail Hart were scarcely
past the prime of life, although they had
been blessed with a large family of chil-
dren, only three of whom, however—two
boys and a girl—had survived the com-
mon ills incident to childhood.

 

 
 

.8

The elder son would have been two and 3 another mite of that pork I’ll blow his

twenty had his life been spared, but eight
months before he had fallen an innocent
victim to the rage and malice of the Tories,
who swarmed in predatory bands through-
out this section.

Upon these murderous wretches, who
had thus wantonly deprived them..of their
eldest born at a time when he might have

father and mother and only remaining son,
Silas, now in hi nineteenth year—after-
ward the celebrated Indian fighter of
Hardin county, Kentucky—swore to be re-
v enged whenever and wherever an oppor-
tunity oflered to wreak their vengeance.

Leah, their secbnd remaining offspring,
was a beautiful and warmhearted maiden
of 17, and the afiianced bride of Randolph
Darell, a brave young officer, at one time
upon the staff of Gen. Marion.

Young Darell was in the habit now and
then, whenever he could make an excuse
to obtain a furlough, of paying a visit to

Gum Tree farm, the humble though com- -

fortable home of the Harts.

On one of these occasions a party of seven
mounted Tories pursued him nearly the
entire distance from the American camp to
the residence of the Harts, be, however,
contriving to elude them in a piece of
woods juSt before reaching the farm.

An abrupt bend in the road had favored
him, and the Tory rangers, not dreaming
of this adroit move on the part of the flying
fugitive, dashed furiously on till they came
to the farm house, where they tumultuous—
] y demanded of Mrs. Hart, who was stand«
ing in the doorway, if she had seen a horse-
man pass by who wore the uniform of an
American officer.

The woman shrewdly surmised who the
ofiicer might be who would be coming
alone in that direction, and promptly' 1n-
quired if the horse he rode was a sorrel
one. To her seemingly careless question the
Tories promptly gave an affirmative reply.

“Then he has rid into the swamp yonder
by a cart path that leads on to the Beech-
knoll road,” answered the quick witted
woman with an admirable. presence of
mind and an apparently cool indifierence
to the subject which carried» instant con-
v iction to the minds of the Tories, who
again spurred on in supposed pursuit of
the fugitiv e; but to their great disappoint-
ment the cart rgsd g1 tly _ tegmipsted -,
in a hog, and 011 core l'exa
discovered that no other horse tracks had
been left there but those (it their own ani-
mals.

"He must have taken to the thicket,”
said the leader after fully satisfying his
mind on the subject. "There is no use at
all in beating the ground further, for he
has had ample time to escape": We may as
well make a virtue :of necessity and go
back and see what is'to be got'of the squint
eyed old woman at the farm house in the
way of eatables.- But isn’t. she a big one
in size, though?”

“And uglier looking than sin, a thun-
derin’ sight,” added one of the men.

The Torv' horsemen now wheeled about
and retraced their way to the farm house,
which was only a short distance, just as
Randolph Darell was on the point of
emerging from the wood; but luckily he
discovered them in season to escape their
notice by abruptly retreating back again
under cover. '

Alighting once more at the door of the
farm house, the Tory leader ordered Mrs.
Hart to prepare dinner for the party, and
bestir herself.

“How can I give .you dinner when I’ve
nothing to cook?” retorted the resolute
looking woman, angrily. “I should need

 

a full larder to satisfy a half dozen such :

dirty rascals as you are.”

“Silence, woman!” thundered the Tory
in a commanding voice, “and do our bid-
ding. I’ll soon give you something to

cook,” he added, leveling his carbine as he
spoke and bringing-flown a plump turkey
gobbler that was strutting along under
cover of the garden wall. “There, now,
go and pluck that fine fellow, my beauty,
and don’t be long shunt it or we might be
tempted to serve you in the same way.”

Leah, who had shrunk timidly into a
corner, started up in alarm when she heard
this threat- and]. made her way out to the
spot where the bird had fallen.

Randolph Darell, alarmed at the shot,
was just on the point of (lashing out of his
cover to go he the rescue of the females
when he saw his aflianced rush out and
bear the turkey hastily to the house. '

In a moment he divincd the cause of the
' firing, and not apprehending any immedi-
ate danger to his sweetheart, so long as the
Tories were only anxious ,to appease their
appetites, he went back to his cover. . .

The quick eye of the Tory leader took in,V
the graceful outlines of the fair girl’s
figure as she rushed from the house, and
on her hasty return his brutal __ ‘
were instantly fired by a single ‘g‘la ,cegat
her lovely, anxious. face.

“By the heard of King George!” he ex-
claimed admiringly, “who ’ould ’ave hex-
pectcd to See such a hangel 1n petticoats
’ere. Come, my. less, and give us one kiss
from that rosebud of a mouth. ”

“You dare to lay. your cowardly hand on
my Leah; ” feried the enraged mother,
doubling up her great, bony fist, “and I’ll
strangle you like a cur!” . . ~

“Why, you s'quli'it eyed oldV beauty,” re-
torhed the Tory mockiuzly, “I took you for.
ahangel, but I find you are wickeder than

named were good enough, and that they
would forego turkey on this occasion for
her sake.

WV;ith greati alacrity, but With an all:
lonely beating heart, Leah spread the home
ly board and brought forth the pro _.
viauds, which she laid out t‘enipting‘ly' j
fore them. She then placed what chairs
and stools the house afiorded a‘vund the
' table, and politely invited her unwelcome
visitors to be seated.

 

carelessly stacked their carbines near an
‘open window, and seating themselves at
the table fell to, greedily devouring the re-
past.

Mrs. Hart' 1n the meantime, with a hero:

 

ism superior to her sex, h..d watched her
hungry guests till she saw she was not ob-
served by them, when she slipped out slyly
' from their midst, and noiselessly approach-
ing the open window she succeeded in
drawing out three of the carbines before
her little game was discovered.

The moment the Tories perceived the

I deadly purpose of the giantess the three

nearest the window sprang to their feet in
terrified astonishment.

1 “Stand back!” she cried in a threaten-

ing tone, presenting one of’thc loaded car-
bines with an air of resolute determina-
tion. “The first villain of you that stirs a
step I’ll shoot, and the first one that touches

brains out!”

Without heeding her blazing eye or her
stern v erbal warning the Tory leadersprang
fearlessly toward the stack of arms, but
before he could reach them there wuss re-
port of a carbine and the advancing rufi’ian

. fell to the floor, while the slug, which had

been. of inestimable service to them, the i passed ent1rely through his body, Stnmk

another in the temple who was seated at
the table, killing him instantly.

A third, rendered desperate by the try~
ing situation, made a reckless attempt to
get possession of one of the carbines, and
instantly paid the penalty with his life.

Throwing the second empty carbine
aside Mrs. Hart caught up the third one,
with which she now covered what re—
mained of the terrified party.

There were but four left, and not' one of
the four dared to move a finger.

“Leah, blow the dinner hem!” cried the
mother in a tone of resolute triumph. “It

 

{011 they.* _ :-

is safe now .to call in Silas and your fa—
ther.”

The young girl, half terrified out of her
wits. promptly obeyed the maternal com-
mand, and a long, winding blast echoed
and re-echoed through the intervening
woods.

She had left the house and joined her
mother on the outside before she essayed
to blow it, and as she lowered the born
from her lips, now rendered colorless from
her recent fright, her anxious eyes were
bent in the direction of the distant corn-
field, where her fathor and brother and a
faithful negro servant were at work, al-
though a narrow belt of timber stretched
between them.

She uttered a quick exclamation of joy-
ous pleasure, for at that moment she saw
all three strike out of the wood and start
on a rapid run toward the house.

Hearing the first shot that had been
fired, and then alarmed by the other two
which had followed in such rapid succes-
sion, they caught up their loaded carbines
and started on a run from the field where
they were then at work.

The moment they had quitted the timber
they saw at a glance by the several horses
hitched to the fence and the belligerent at-
titude of the heroic giantess at the window
pretty nearly how matters stood at the
house, and they all three sent up an en-
~oouraging shout to the women. I .

 

Just at this point they heard thé ringing
sound of a horse’s hoofs in an opposite di-
rection, and turning suddenly Leah beheld
her lover dashing furiously toward the
house. This additional re-enforcement,
coming so opportunely, yet .so unexpected-
ly, filled the heart of the* timid maiden
with increased confidence. V '

“Oh, mother!” she burst out, exc1tedly,
“Randolph is coming—see! He is just
leaving the wood. Isn’t it lucky for him to
come just at this time, when we had no
reason to expect him?”

“I expected him,” said Mrs. Hart, with
quiet assurance. “I knew it was he the
Teries Were in pursuit of, and I was deter-
, mined to outwit them if it lay' 1n the power
of woman to do it. Everything has turned
out for the best, for bad Lieut. Darell rid-
den straight here instead of lingering in
the woods as he did he would doubtless
have been captured and perhaps murdered
before our eyes. So you see, my girl, the
ways of Providence are better than our
ways, for they always turn out for the best
in the end. ”

In another moment Randolph Darell had
alighted at their side, and in the next the
blushing and happy Leah was enfolded in
his manly embrace.

 

 

While the lovers were thus preoccupied
Abijah, Silas and the negro arrived, fear-
fully excited and wholly out of breath.

Silas recovered first. and was about to
shoot down one of the Tories when his
mother resolutely interfered. ‘

“Don’t shoot them! Leave them to me,
Silas. I will mete out their punishmentto
them. We haven’t forgotten Eben's mur-
der yet, and shooting is too good for ’em.
We will just hang them like speck of
dogs, the whole cOwardly kit 'of them.
Get the clothes line, Leah; we can afford
to cut it on such a righteous and heaven
sent occasion.” : '- ‘

Randolph sh-uddered, for he understood
the determined character of the Woman,
and knew that she would not be long in
putting her terrible-threat into execution.
Nor, indeed, was she, for within the ensu-
ing hour, 1n spite of. their prayers and pro-
tcststions, the bodies of the four Tories
went dangling from the nearest tree. And
thus at the hand of u resolute and heroic
mother was the death of a beloved son
simply and satisfacwril y avenged.

V . 'After the Tories he'd hung asufiicient

time they were cut down and: tumbled in-
discriminame with the other three into
one common grave. - -

Shortly after this event Leah and Ran-
dolph' Darell were happily united in wed-
lock and soon. afterthe close of our glorious
revolution. the whole family emigrated to
Hardin county, 31:3}. ., where they could
have, as Mrs. Hart expressed .it, more ‘.‘el-

IS. MADE m KENTUCKY.

 

A Splendidly Plain and Simple Statement
from Beginning to End—A. Novice Can
Understand apd Act '0! the Advice Herc
Given-The Thermometer

For making really good butter, the ex-
cellence of which can be depended upon
week after week, through the ever chang-
ing telnperature of successive seasons,
we must learn to be guided not by our
own feelings but by the right use of .the
dairy thermometer. That' never varies,
While personal contact is always a mere
matter Vof comparison and guesswork.

We keep two “creamers,” into one of
which the morning’ s milk is strained,
and into the other that brought 1n the
evening, fresh well water at a tempera-
ture of 50 degs. being pumped into the
tank. of each creamer twice daily during
the warm weather. To accelerate the
separation of the cream from the milk
cold water is put into the fresh milk,
usually in the proportion of one pint to
a gallon. After standing twenty-four
hours the cream is removed and put in-
to tin stands placed in ice water, the
cream for one day’ s milk being sufiicient
for a churning. The temperature of the

cream during the ripening period' 18 not
so arbitrary as during the process of
churning; about 70 dogs. or a little be-
low that will answer, always remem-
bering that the warmer the cream is
kept the sooner will itbe ready for the
churn. When kept near '70 degs., when
properly ripened, it will be slightly
acid, but not very sour, and will possess
.the consistency of buttermilk. If al-
lowed to stand after it has ripened un-
til it becomes a sour, solid mass the
yield of butter will be smaller and its
flavor inferior. When put in the churn
its temperature in summer should be
about 62 dogs. and in winter 64 dogs;
this will allow for the changes naturally
occasioned by the motion of the churn
and the surrounding atmosphere and
will permit the butter to register about
64degs.

For a number of years we have used :1.
Davis swing churn, and still like it too
well to change it for any other. It does
not get the butter as quickly as some
others are said to do, but it 18 easily man-
aged, easy to clean, and has no intricate
machinery to get out of order. When
the butter granules assume the size of
small shot the rapid motion is stopped,
and the churn is swung slowly back and
forth for five or ten minutes, in order to
allow all the butter to rise to the top of
the milk, after which the milk is drawn
off from below, and cold water is poured
in and drawn ofi until it comes ofi clear.
The butter is then lifted out with a
cedar paddle 1n a. wooden bowl, weighed
and salted in the proportion of three-
fourths of an ounce of salt to the pound;
the salt being lightly worked in, as it is
best at first not to attempt to get out all
the water. A small quantity of fine

.white sugar, about one teaspoonful to

the pound of butter, is worked in with
the salt. This, without imparting to the
butter any sweetish taste, gives it arich,
delicious flav0r which many persons
think very desirable. The fresh butter
is then placed on ice, in a well glazed
earthenware crock covered with El-
liott’s parchment paper, where it is
allowed to stand until next morning.
when it ' is carefully worked over and
packed in tin buckets ready for shipping.
We find that the largest yield of but-
ter is obtained when the milk is cooled
quickly after being brought to the dairy,
and when it is kept at an even tempera-
ture, cold enough to prevent its becom-
ing sour, until after the cream has risen
and been removed. Either extreme heat
or extreme cold seems to cause some
chemical change in the character of the
milk that interferes with the right man-
agement of it afterward. Neither is it a
good plan to mix very sour cream with
that which is sweet, for although the
mass may taste suficiently acid and ap-
pear of the right consistency, yet the last
cream added will not be of the requisite
ripeness, while the first has begun to
spoil; so that neither will yield as much
or as fine a quality of butter as it other-
wise would. Unless both cream and
milk are kept on ice no cream in sum—
mer should be kept. longer than thirty-
six hoursan the milk has been brought
to the dairy, which would allowtwenty-
four hours for the cream to rise and
twelve for it to ripen; but ‘asthi‘s. would
necessitate churning the cream from each
milking separately we may, by pntin'ng
that first gathered on ice, keep it sweet
for twelve hours before mixing it with
the next; after which both may be al-
lowed to ripen together. It is scarcely
necessary to add that no butter should
ever be allowed to become warm enough
to be soft and oily; if once the little
walls surrounding "the butter granules
are melted down they can never be built

up again. To be in perfection, butter V

should be kept so cold that some effort
will bereqmred toelice it with a knife,
or if it be broken it should present an ap-
pearance as though it were composed of
irregular crystals. ’

If it could be so arranged, all butter
shOuld be shipped the‘next day after it
has been churned, but as our customers
Want it either the first or the latter part
of the week, we usually make-two week-
iy-shinments, and manage to keep it in
excellent Order betweentimes by exclud-

ing the air with ”the parchment butter 2

while it’ is being shipped. Perfect clean-
