e give outfor all hands to come over to de wood-pile to-night. She say she got a big prophecy to read outer hand to-night. Yas, dats her a-readin now. Would nt it be funny if she were to proph-esy freedom, Yuyu ? Yas, to all but us. Come, le s go up anlisten. # # # # # More than thirty years have passed since thetwo little maids sat together in the moonlight,and agreed that even if all the world werefree, they would always belong to each other;and although they are both grandmothers now,they say that they belong to each other yet.And so they do, in all the sweetest ways thatbelonging means. For many years theyhave lived in a big Southern city,— not in thesame house, but near enough to be together onall important occasions of joy or of sorrow.Whenever there is a wedding in the family, Aunt Yuyu, as she is called, sits bravely inline with her white folks in the reserved pew ;but she is never so happy and important as ata christening when she carries the babies upthe aisle in her arms.
