Maynard Barbour, * * * 43 * * * * * (Continued front last Week) with that fearful event, he was not the victim. but the perpetrator. We deter- st nt action to be decided by later develop- ments. Through our special detective we succeeded in locating him, but he, upon finding himself cornered, suppos- he was to be arrested for the murder of his brother, attempted suicide by shooting. The combined skill of the best surgeons obtainable, though un- able to save hint, yet prolonged life for three days, long enough to enable two of our number, Mr. Barton and Mr. Montague, to reach hint in season to take his dying statement; a statement not only setting forth the facts relating to the will in question, but embracing also the details of Fair Oaks tragedy and mystery. This statement made by Hugh Malnwaring and attested by w mined at all hazards to secure him, fir as a witness in this case, or subseque numerous witnesses present, will no be read by Mr, Montague." Amid an impressive silence, Mr, Montague stepped to the side of the casket and, unfolding a document which he held, read the following: "I Hugh Mainwaring, freely and voluntarily and under no duress or compulsion, slake this, my dying state- ment, not only as a relief to the men- tal anguish 1 have endured for the past few months, but also in the 'hope that I may thereby, in my last hours, help in some degree to right the wrong which my life of treachery and coward- ice has wrought. To do this, I must go back over twenty-five years of crime, and beyond that to the inordi- nate greed and ambition that led to crime. "My brother, Harold Scott Alain- waring, and I were twins, so marvell- ously alike in form and feature that our parents often had difficulty to dis- tinguish between us, but utterly un- like in disposition, except that we both possessed a fiery temper and an indomitable will. He was the soul of honor, generous to a fault, ioyal- hearted and brave and 11e exacted hon- or and loyalty from others. He had not petty ambitions; he cared little for wealth for its own sakes, still less for its votaries. 1 was ambitious; 1 loved wealth for the power which it bestowed; 1 would sacrifice anything for the attainment of that power,. and even my boyish years were tainted with secret envy of my brother, an envy that grew with my growth, till, as we reached years of maturity, the consciousness that he, my senior by only a few hours, was yet to take pre- cedure over me—to possess all that 1 coveted—became a thorn in my side whose rankling presence 1 never for a single waking hour forget; It embitter- ed my enjoyment of the present, 111y hopes and plans for the future. "But of this deadly undercurrent (lowing far beneath the surface nei- ther he nor others dreamed, till, one day, a woman's face—cold, cruel, false but beautiful, bewitchingly, entranc- ingly beautiful,—came between us, and from that hour all semblance of friend- ship was at an, end. With me it was an infatuation; with 11m it teas loae,,s love ready to make any sacrifice for Its idol. So when our father threatened' to disinherit and disown either or both of us, and the, false, tickle heart of a woman was laid in the .balances a- gainst the ancestral estates, I saw nay opportunity'for seizing the long covet ed prize; ' 'We each made his choice; nay brother; sold his birthright far a mess of pottage; his., rights were trans - TOOK SE SETTLED ©HEST.

This was not unexpected to me, 'Though no words on the sub, Ject had passed between us 11114)1 ,sty brother's name was never ntenLIOI'O , 1 had realised for more than a year that my father was gradually relenting towards the son who had ever been Ills favorite, and on the last day that he was able to leave his room, i had come upon him unaware in the old picture gallery, standing before the portrait of his elder sop, silent awl stern, but with the team's coursing down 1135 pallid cheeks. When, therefore, on the night preceding his death, my father de- manded that an attorney be summoned, my feelings can be imagined. Just as the prise which (had so long regarded as mine was almost within my grasp, should i' permit it to elude me for the gratification of a dying man's whim? Never! In nay rage 1 could have thrott- led 111111 then and there without it qualm; fear of the law alone held me back. 1 tried to dissuade hint, but it was useless. f then bribed the servant sent to brei;r the attornew to report that he was out of town and when that proved of no avail, I sent for Richard Hobson, a penniless shyster, whose lack of means and lack of principle I believed would render him an easy tool h1 my hands. He came; 1 was waiting to receive 1111 in, and we entered into a compact, 1 little dreaming t was setting loose on my track a veritable hell- hound!

'fwo days later, 1 had a false telegram 'sent to our place, summon- ing McPherson to his home in Scotland. He left at once, before my father's bur- ial, and his death, which occured ,1 few weeks later, removed the last obstacle in the way of carrying my plans into execution, My brother at that time was in Australia, but in what part of the country 1 did not know, nor did i try to ascertain. My constant fear was that he might in some way—though by what' means I could not imagine—get some knowledge of the will and return to set up a claim to the estate, As soon as possible, therefore, notwith- standing the protests of my attorneys, 1 sold the estate and came to America. "Concerting the )'ears that followed it is needless to go into dotall; they, brought me wealth, i morn=e, power,; all that 1 had crav4,l, 1 I'ttle of hap- piness. liven when t'1: -e same tidings of nay brother's death at ,..i, and I felt that et last nay title to the estate was • secure, I had little enloymei(t in its possession. Richard tiobsoti had al- ready begun his black -mailing ing schemes, his demand growing more frequent and exo'bltl111t with each succeeding year, Through hint, also the women who had wrecked my brother's life received, some inkling of my secret, and throueff this knowledge, slight ars it was, gained enough Of a hold over me that lite was becoming an intolerable burden, Through stI these years, however, 1 kept the will in my possession.. Even after hearing of the death of my bro- ther, n cowardly, half -superstitious 'tread kept me front destroying it, though doubtless I would have done so soon after staking My own will had I not been prevented by circumstances unforeseen, which I will now state. "The events which r (1131 about to relate are stamped upon my brain as though by fire; they have haunted me day and night for the past five utonths. On the seventh of July last, I made and executed my will in favor of ley name- sake Hugh Maiuwaring, and on the fol- lowing day—itis birthday and mine—he was to be declared my heir. it was past. eleven o'clock on the night of that day when I retired. to sty private library, and it was fully an hour later when, having dismissed my secretary, I 'finally found myself alone, as I sup- posed, for the night. My thoughts were far from pleasant. 1 had Just had a stormy interview with my house- keeper, Mrs. LaGrange, who had tried, as on preeious occasions, to coerce me by threats into a private marriage end a public recognition of her as my wife and of her child and mine; and, in ad- dition, the occurrences of the day had been of a nature to recall the past, and events which h I usually Sought to bury in oblivion were passing before my mental vision despite any efforts to banish them.
