somewhere else, so he ought to set

"He can easily do that," said
Madge, with a ray of hope lighting
up her sad face; "he was 'here till
1 1 o'clock on Thursday night."
"Very probably," returned her
father dryly; "but where was be
at 1 o'clock on Friday nr.raing?"
"Besides, Mr Whyte left the
louse long before Brian did," she
went on repilly. "You must re-
member -it was when you (permit-
ted with el( Whyte."
"My dear Madge," said Ur Frettl-
by, stopping in front of her with a
displeased look, "you are incorrect
-Whyte and myself did not quar-
rel. He asked we if it were true
that Fitzgerald was engaged to you,
and I answered yes. That was all,
and then he left the house."
"Yes, and Brian didn't go until
two hours after," said Madge, tri-
umphantly. "Ile never saw Mr
Whyte the whole night."
"So he says," replied Mr Frettlby,
significantly.
"I believe Brian before any one
else in the world," said his deughter,
hotly,with flushed cheeks and flair
ing eyes.
"Ah! but will a jury'?" queried
her father.
"Yon have turned against him
too," answered Madge, her eyes
lilting with tears. "You believe
him guilty."
"I am not prepared either to
deny or affirm his guilt," said Mr
Frettlby, coldly. "I have done
what I could to help bini-I have
engaged Calton to defend blue_ and
if eloquence and skill can save him,
yon may set your mind at rest."
"My dear father," said Madge,
throwing her arms around his neck,
"1 knew you would not desert him
d;together, for my sake."
"My darling," replied -her father
in a faltering voice, as he kissed
lier, "there is nothing in the world
7 would not do for your sake."
Meanwhile Brian was sitting in
his cell in the Melbourne jail,thinke
ing sadly enough about his position.
Ile sew no hope of escape except
one, and that he did not intend to
,take advantage of.
"It would kill her; it would kiil
her,': he said feverishly, as he paced
to and fro over tho echoing stones.
"Bettor that the last of the Fitz-
gerald should perish like a common
thief than that she should know the
Litter truth. If I engage n lawyer
to defend me," he went on, "the
Irst question he will ask tne will
Le where 1 on that night, and
if I tell hitte till will be discovered,
and then--no-no.--I cannot, do it;
;t would kill her, my darling," and
ilivowing himself down on the bed,
he covered big face with his hands.
LIP was roused by che opening of
the door of his cell, and onlooking
ep saw that it was Calton who
entered.- He was a great friend of
Fitzgerald's, and Brian was deeply
vouched by his kindness in coming
to see him. Dencan Calton had a
indly heart, and was anitious to
Brian, but there was also a
ouch of self-interest in the matter.
Ile had received a note from Mr
Frettlby, asking hint to defend
Fitzgerald, which he agreed to with
avidity, as he foresaw in this case
ran opportunity for his name becom-
ing known throughout the Austra-
'Jinn colonies. ' It is true that he
was already 'a celebrated lawyor,but
is reputatien was pueely alocal
ono, and as he foresaw that Fitz-
. gerald's trial for murder would
cause a great sensation throughout
Australia and New Zealand, there-
fore determined to take Advantage
of it as another step in the ladder
-which led to fame, wealtk.and posi-
tion. So this tell, keen eyed man,
with the clean shaven face.ind ex'
ltressive mouth, advanced into the
call, and took Brian by the hand.

Brian did not answer, but put
out his hand, which the other grasp.
ed warmly.
"I will not deny," went on Cel -
ton, "that there is a little bit of
professional . curiosity about me.
This ease is such an extraordinary
one that I feel as if I were unable
to let slip an opportunity of doing
something with it. I don'teeare for

but this is something clever, and
therefore interesting. When you
are s t'e we will together look for
the real criminal, and the pleasure
of the search will be proportionate
to the excitement when we find him
out."
"I agree With everything you say,"
said Fitzgerald, calmly, "but 1 have
no defense to make,"
"No defense? You are not going
to confess yon killed him?"
"No," with an angry flush, "but
there are certain circumstances
which prevent me from defending
myself."
"What nousense," retorted Cel-
ton,sharply;"as if any circumstances
should prevent a man from saving
his own life. But never mind, I
like these objections, they make the
nut harder to crack -but the kerhel

you have to answer me certain

"I won't promise."
"Well, we shall see," said the
lawyer, cheerfully, taking out his
note book and resting it on his knee.
"First, where were you on the

"I can't tell you."
"Oh, yes, yon can, my ft iced.

Calton, however, had found out

that Fitzgerald had an appointment,
