It was a quaint, old-world place, with a grey church, thatched cottages, farmsteads set amidst old trees, and a general, air of quiet prosperity. -Small as,it was,, I noticed that it possessed a ,roomy - looking, old-fashioned inn; the swing- ing sign outside bore the name "The Renai•dsmere Arnis.” "Everything here' is Renard smere," observed Miss Manson, seeing me loot: at this. "The name of the vill- age is Renardsmere; the inn is Ren- ardsmere; the big house -is Renards- mere. But I suppose you''ll think of Lady Renardsmere as_Helena Read- ing?" "I' n "I've seem: pictures of her as Helena Reading," I said. "But of course ''I never' saw her on the stege. -She-was -a great beauty, I believe." "By jove, she isn't now, though!" exclaimed Miss Manson. "I suppose there are traces of it, but—however, you'll see her in five minutes." We found Lady Renardsmere in a corner of her extensive gardens. It had been very, evident t�- me as we passed -through them that she employ- ed a big staff of- gardeners, but the fact remains, that when we discovered- her, her ladyship, in a" coarse and mu- ch stained garden dress, and with an old hat tied on to her head lay, an equ= ally disreputable scarf, was digging straw manure with :a five -pronged fork into a beck of soil destined for some purpose best --known to - herself. She straightened her tall figure at our approach, knocking one hand into the small of her „back as' she steadily in- spected me -a. stranger. And .I just as steadily inspected • her. A queer woman! I thought -with a deeply lined,,' strangely seamed face, an odd mouth,' and, `a pair of dark 'eyes still full of fire. "'Who's that young fellow?" she de- \'� mandedr before we had come within six paces:of her, "Friend of yours, Peggie Manson? Good-looking lad, too -knows how to ;' hold himself- umph!" "This is a younggentleman, Lady Renardsmere, who has heard that you want a secretary, and thinks he could serve you well," replied Miss Manson, as I 'made my bow.
