OUR SERIAL STORY
The p rr� �j rr�t �{+ t

1�1f Pauline" lac
r`
Of course, although the papers de-
vote column after column to wild
conjecture as to motive and piquant
detail as to fact, the public, in real-
ity, is allowed to know just as much
and just as little of the family ro-
prance as is thought good.; but the
one extraordinary circumstance that
fascinates the public is that the wo-
man for whom the world was search-
ed had all the time been in her own
home among her own relatives, mas-
querading as a man.
In spite of her injuries Pauling
does not die. Sir Ephraim's verdict,
though it leaves small room for hope,
is not a death sentence from which
there is no •appeal. It is a great re-
lief to Stephen, Nell, and Miss Clem-
ency to realize this, but to the proud
woman who feels acutely that she
has made herself a byword and a
laughing -stock to the world, and
something worse to the few people
whom she really cares for, the crip-
pled barren life in store seems worse
than the uttermost bitterness of ex-
tinction.
Pablo Valdez goes back to Santa
Clara much richer than when he
came, but in a very sulky and far
from grateful frame of mind bear-
ing with him a rooted prejudice a-
gainst the unfriendly country in
which he had been frozen and forc-
ed to play an exceedingly foolish
part. There is, he decides, as he
looks back at the receding shores of
Southampton water from the deck of
the steamer, no temptation strong
enough to induce flim to quit his own
land of sunshine a second time, not
even the vague prospect of inherit-
ing the Abbey, with which the temp-
tless, Pauline, had for a time dazzled
111s eyes.
And Mr. IIardinge Stanley,
brought face to face with Sir Step-
hen and Nellie, proves himself the
meekest and most amenable of crim-
inals, not only admitting the theft
of Paulina's necklace, but actually
begging the girt he had frightened
nearly out of her life to back him
up in itis assertion that he had only
yielded to an overpowering tonpta-
..tion when he snapped up what lay -
so near his hand. •
"I did not even come to see you,
miss, that evening,” he leads earnest-
ly. "My appointment was with Miss
Blake, and I made sure I should find
!ter in the library when all the rest
of the household were in bed, but
there were you with a candle and
the string of pearls in your hand."
"Miss Blake had made me put it

on before we quarrelled," Nellie
says. "I found it after I went up to
bed, and came down to see if the
jewel -case had .been left in the lib-
rary"
"But it had not," the man says.
"I am not a thief, though Heaven
only knows what any one will do if
he is hard pressed! I am just an
actor, heart and soul, who cannot

part. You, the ingenue of the play.
were bringing the family plate to the
blackmailer—myself. What could
1 do but play my part? I played it,
and snatched the collar from your
frightened fingers. Even then I did
not mean to keep it, but at the mom-
ent we heard Miss Blake coming
downstairs. I crammed the pearls
into my pocket and made for the
open tioor while you screamed and
dropped in a heap on the floor, just
as a proper heroine would do. It
could not have been better done If
you and I and Miss Blake had re-
hearsed it all!"
Notwithstanding his impudent
bravado, he watches the effect of his
words with evident anxiety, but
neither of his hearers is thinking of
him.
"Oh, Stephen, it was horrible!"
Nell says, shuddering at the recol-
lection.. "When I awoke it was al-
most morning. I was dazed and
stupid at first; then on looking round
I found that the collar and the man
were gone. But that was not the
worst. When they told me later
that Miss Blake had also vanished
my heart nearly broke. Remember,
I felt sure that he was my father and
that he had caused her disappearance
•—had killed her!"
A few minutes suffice for Sir Step-
hen to finish the man's connection
with the miserable past, and togeth-
er in the old library, where they
have spent so many anxious hours,
he and Nellie look into each other's
eyes and know that the last cloud
has vanished, leaving them( in the
sunshine of full trust and love.
"It is all over, darling!" he says
gently, "All the mystery and the
malice and the shadow! We have
only to be happy now."
"And we can be," the girl replies
subbing. "For Miss Blake is really
getting well—she is so changed, so
gentle. And there is not even the
shadow of a famly givarrel, for, do
you know, Stephen, I have had the
sweetest possible letter from Sylvia
today? She forgives us all round,
and will be charmed to join us for
the fe:tivilties as soon as she can get
ready."
"Well, you are an angel, .Nell, to
forgive her so readily, but Sylvia
will .be Sylvia to the end of, the
chapter—lighter than ,a feather and
with no ballast, at the mercy of the
first wind that blows, Let it drift
her to our wedding!"
