"Well, well, news indeed!" mete -ear-

had got plenty to occupy his thoughts,
In spite of the sad electunstancee he
found himself extraordinarily glad to
be in the houee of his fathers. When
he descended to the hal to find Judith
waiting for him, and the cart at the
door, she put rather a wistful ques-
tion to him,
"I hope you'll have a good interview
with Mr. Richardson, Alan, if you
should go to Glasgow. But are you
going back to India?"
Ile shook his head decisively.
"I am not, my dear. I'm stopping
at Stair, to sink or swim with it, If of

No seat of commerce for a Rankine

—for those who had less kinship with
the open, and who prized money and
the things which money could buy.
As this thought—a very unusual
one for a person so modest and humble

,
—passed through Judith Rankine s
mind, her eyes seemed to turn natur-
ally towards the lowest spur of Bar-
assie I1ill, where the tops of the chim-
neys of The Lees could just be seen.
The Garvocks and the Rankines had
some slight ties of blood between then,
sufficient to make the young people
adopt themselves as cousins. They
had all been broughtup together, in
a sense, and Isabel Garvock had help-
ed to mother the motherless brood at
Stair until Judywas able, at a very
youthful age, to take command:'
The lands marched, and the march
dyke was on that spur of the Hill
above which ..the chimneys peeped..
Stair was the finer property natur-
ally, but its resources had not been
husbanded, consequently it was net in
the state of high cultivation and per-
fection which prevailed at The Lees,
and which was Peter Garvock's pride,
as it had been that of his father be-
fore him. Bit by bit, the borders of
`The Lees had been widened, every Bt-
tle bit of land to eastward snapped up
as soon as money could buy it, and,
once merely an off -shoot of Stair Y a
gift, indeed, offered by the lordly Tian-
kine of a bygone clay to' a humble rela-
tive who had done him a service -it
had become one of the most important
and desirable places:' in the county.
Money had been spent freely on it and
while it lacked the whole dignity of
Stair, it had that sheltered, cared -for
look, that outward air of prosperity
which we associate with money wisely
spent. It was an ideal home for one
of Glasgow's merchant princes, which
Peter Garvock undoubtedly was.
Alan Rankine's business in Ayr was
quickly done, and he caught (the twelve
o'clock train for Glasgow. It was not
much patronized, and he was rather
glad in the circumstances to escape at
once the welcome and the condolences
of old acquaintances and friends. It
was raining when he got out at St.
Enoch's, and he buttoned up his shab-
by waterproof and set out to walk,
with long, swinging strides, to the
offices of Messrs. Garvock, Garvock,
& Maine, in Jamaica Street. He -would
just miss the lawyer at that hour,'he
knew, and might as well lunch with
Peter, if he could catch him.
He did, at the bottom of the ware-
house stair, on his way out to lunch.
The meeting between the two men
was characteristic. They stared at
one another for a full minute, then
both laughed a trifle nervously.
"Well, old chap, so you're here,"
said Garvock last.
"Yes, I'm here," Alan answered.
They shook hands and stepped out
into the rain. Just outside the door,
however, Peter Garvock paused.
"You were in time, I hope? Judy
told me he was very low yesterday."
"No. He died this morning, at half
past two," answered Alan.
They walked„ on a few steps in ,sil-
ence, which Garvock broke.
"I bad to lunch with a man at St;
Enoch's. We'll just go there. I can
part 'him off. My business isn't
portant. I'm sorry, Alan. I'd have
cabled- sooner, but they wouldn't let
me."
Peter Garvock's voice, usually of • a
raucous quality, was softened into a
kindliness and sympathy which sur-
prised nobody more than his cousin,
1
for, though they had been fairly good
friends the most -of their lives, chiefly
because Alan himself was not of a
quarrelsome disposition, he had often
compared Peter Garvock• to the Scot-
tish national 'emblem, and had once
fought with.. ]iiia because • of having
suggested to him "Wha deur meddle
wi' me" as a suitable family motto
for The Lees!

It lacked thirty-five minutes of that
