THE STORY OF TWO LOVERS. A ROMANCE BEGAN IN THE HEBRIDES AND CONTINUED ON THE PACIFIC COAST. [From tfie Concord (A. H.) Patriot.'] Twenty-six years ago James Sand erson, a respectable person residing in the Scottish Hobrides, then verging on forty years, made court to a girl some sixteen years of age, and was accepted; but a rival much younger interferred, and bore off the prize. This made Sanderson feel revengeful; and the girl’s new lover having been engaged in smuggling, Sanderson informed up on him. and he had to leave the islands to which he. never came back. The people were so violent against Sander son that he, too, was forced to leave but bad married before doing so, his wife being taken to spite his old mis tres., u iio had not got married. Braving on flic Amcaican Pacific coast in safety, he purchased a large tract of land a few miles north of Fort La.ii'd' v, ami devoted himself to the agri ulturald* velopnv nt with so much energy and skill that a few years made him comparatively wealthy. Bettor than this, however, the new life brought with it such endearment of the woman whom lie had wedded with out of her love than he had been able io stimulate for her deception, that the increase < f their children was his conversion into the fondest of hus bands; and when, in 18(11, he became a w idower, he remained so ten years, when he sent home to a sister in the Hebrides to engage a wife for him. His old flame was selected, and said she was willing to go to him whom she had gilte<l twenty-five years be fore. From the time of her second lover’s hasty flight under the denunciation of his enemy, the smuggler’s sweetheart had never‘heard of that individual again; and the lapse of time and the increasing burdens ot her lowly estate made her much less imperious at for ty than she was at sixteen. The weal thy farmer of British Columbia, sent her ample means for her outfit and voyage, and the long voyage was ac complished without incident as far as San Franci a’o. From the latter city she was to p.ioceed up the coast to her destination on a steamer in which a passage was specially secured for her, and while awaiting this vessel she was seen and recognized at a hotel by the uecepte I lover of her youth, who had bu n in California ever since his un timely departure from Hebrides. There was a dramatic meeting, a long storv on either side, and—alas, for the waiting widow a full revival of the old love. Both lover’s however, were much Norb«><l by flu- d>K<*ipfiiio of maturei years; and the lady, having explained by whose wish and means she was in America, declared that she must go onward as she had promised, and ful fill her engagement if it was still exact cd. She would faithfully tell all to him who awaited her at the end of her journey, confess that she could never love him now as she had lately thought possible, and abide by his own decision. If he yet claimed her he must be obeyed; if not she would return to San Francisco. As the sto ry with her reappearance in the Cali fornia city a few' days ago, and quiet marriage there to Cue former smuggler, it may be inferred that the Columbian widower was at once sensible and magnanimous under his last disap pointment, and finally proved himself tin friend of the woman with whom fate had twice denied him a nearer, dearer rehilionship.
