THE STORY OF A BLOOD FEUD
BY ANNIE S. SWAN,
"Love gives Itself and is not bought." --Longfellow,
CHAPTER IX.—(Cont'd.)
"I "don't just know where I am,
declared Judy. "I shan't know unt
I've had it out with AIan. I onl
know that I have never been so si
of my life!"
"It is hard on you, of course. An

"He can't," interrupted Judy. "An
he won't, if 1 can prevent it! Itis, a
you say, not decent. I can't under
stand it, anyhow, look at it as I like
Good-bye, Aunt Isabel. Thank yot
for bringing me so far. VII go througl Deane wood and get home quickly
--yes, really, this is my best way!"
Good-bye, my dear, and I hope
your strong common sense and right
feeling will have smite effeet on your
headstrong brother."
Judy rattier dismally shook her
head. She felt a vaat impatience with
the members al the sex who compli-
cated Ii.fe so frightfully for their fel-
land just let me tel you what has hap-
pened as best I can?"
]1 Judy sat down, and as she liste
ekto the esctreardiusar ieci al—
i more telling, beeause, it was told
i baldly and simply—her heart was
d confused medley of emotions.
t She could not but be Berry for t
big, itnpulsive, warns -hearted! ma
child, though her common sense tri
di to. ware her that the tale was o
s, hardly to be credited.
"Yon must acquit Inc of any wilf
i' plan to treat Peter Garvock enshrine
h ably, Judy; for the thing was snip
. lifted clean out of our ]rands. Ca
1 you see that`?"
""I wonder," said Jody, and dr
ping her chin on her hands, she loo
across the intervening• space at
face, which was stamped with the seal
of the strong emotions under which
i undoubtedly he was laboring, "I won-
; der just how much of all this is real,
or will last? You have been in love
a good many times -haven't you,
Alan?"
"I have imagined it—but this is
j different," he said, with diffidence,
"I daresay that every time you have
I thought that! What I want to know
is, whether for this love, which lasts
so short a time in a man's life and
means so little to hien, is it worth
while to rend so many hearts and
lives?"
Judy was very scathing, but Alan
stood it well.
"I suppose I've deserved it" he said
quite humbly. "Still, some day you'll
understand."
"And what about Lucy?" pursuied
Jud
quite Judy, q to mercilessly. She has not
forgotten, though you have, the trysts
you used to make and keep on Bar
assie Hill."
Rankine started in painful surprise.
"Oh, that was only fooling, Judy,
and none knew better than Lucy! I'm"
perfectly sure she has forgotten all
about it. There will be no trouble with
the women -folk at The Lees. They
won't bear any malice,"
Judy decided to keep her further
counsel Concerning. Lucy, chiefly be-
cause no good could now come of harp-
ing on wat was, in Alan's eyes, both
a futile and an uninteresting theme:
"You're wrong, Alan, as it happens.
You have alienated a whole family.
e, even I was refused admittance
at The Lees this afternoon—met by
Ramsay at the doer with the message
Not at home,' though he immediately
afterwards informed me that Aunt
Isabel had seen me from the window
nd sent down to make rune his tnes-
age was delivered."
Judy was surprised at the relish
with which she gave her Iittle thrust.
he was rewarded by seeing her bro-
ther look properly aghast.
"Judy! Aunt Isabel never did that
to you!"
"She did," said Judy with a nod.
"But afterwards I saw them in Ayr -
•
the angel of the house teen she had' -'
done since they came into the Pool.'
--
felt it so •gw. ally=the way you
have treated me, Alan. 'You ought to
have told me every single thing, and
not have left lee to' hear it in scraps,
from this one and that. It wasn't
right nor fair,: nor kind.- I positively ;
did not know where to look, at the
Clock r•Iouse this afternoon, when
11Zrs. Oarlyon calmly informed me that
ber daughter's engagement was at an
end."
"You went to the Clock House, and
Mrs. Canyon told you that! But why
should you have gone there to -day?"
"Why should 1 do anything? I had
a free aftoritoon. I was under prom-
ise to go there some time. I knew
nothing to hinder, therefore I want.
.
Try and be sensible, Alan! I have
nothing to hide, and never will have,
please God, for it is—is the very devil
in a family!"
The depth of Judy's feeling was
surely evinced by her use of a term
so strong! Usually her language was
full of restraint, and she had no sym-
pathy with the new license of speech,
and with the abundant use of slang
which distinguished so many of her
compeers. She remained a little fas-
tidious and old-fashioned, as her
mother had been before her.

It was the custom in the village to

herself, as she kicked a stone along

serviceable boot, "]tote much easier

added, with a little smile of scorn at
the futility of her argument, II
When she re-entered the big,Ionely,l
quiet house, a sudden sense of for -1

down on the old settee, she hid Iter;

"Why, Judy, whatever is the mat-

"Oh, don't ask ane, Alan Rankine!"
she cried, looking up with a sudden
gesture of auger. "Do you think you
have treated me fairly --exposing me
to the treatment I have suffered to-
day, and leaving me to learn things
I ought to have known, just from any-
body?"
"Iee us go intiethe Pool, and have

Judy's tone was more than wounded
