'which, I. made my boast -=•a love of *Inch. it
ie -a Shama for me to speak, and for : you to
hear ; but I love you, Clare, I love you !"
Having wrung tier hands in his until she
could have screamed with agony, he threw,
them from him and left her -e -left her literal-
ly stunned and breathless.
For a long time—she could not tell how
long—she remained where he had left her ;
then, like one who has had a blow and got a
great hurt—cold, sick, bewildered—she
groped -her way through the shade and the
blinding sunshine'till she gained her own
room.
He loved her ! Well ! Was the consci-
ousness—either for hate's sake, as ie-
venge—or for love's sake, as satisfaction—
sweet ?
CHAPTER X.
Allan, meeting Mr. Smith just after his
interview with Clare, could not help notic-
ing the -unusual excitement shown in his
face and manner.
To Allan's question ELS to what was the
matter, Mr, Smith answered,
" I have been tempted by the devil, and
the devil had the loetter of me. Do not
touch me boy—let me go."
But Allan, who did not know if this were
earnest or some bitter jest,. passed his arm
through his friend's, and held him fast.
" What has happened ? Something, I am
sure. DO riot jest with me. Tell me what
has happened.'
"A mere trifle—a, most ordinary occur-
rence. A man who thought himself of stain-
lese honor and disinterestednees, has proved
himself a selfish -. traitor. A mere trifle.
Quite a jesting inatter.'!__
Mr. Smith laughed..
" We are long past the dog -days, or I
should be alarmed for your sanity," Alla,n
I ani not mad, most noble Allan."
" John, my dear fellow, speak to me
soberly. What ha,s occurred ? Have you
had bad newa`? To whom did you—who is
the traitor ?"
Listen a,nd judge." But Mr. Smith
paused awhile choking down some pang, of
bitterness, before he continued. I am
just'come from your cousin Clare. I found
her in. the yew -walk, and left her there. I
love her ; I have told her so."
- He looked in Allan's face—it ',Whitened to.
the lips, and the features sharpened.
" And, Clare ?" was all Allan said.
".Loves me. Beggar a,nd blackguard as I
amershe loves me."
" Let me remember. No, not in words."
" I do not . doubt it. Take your hand
Allan paid no heed. Arm in arm they
walked on in silence • a low, sardonic, self -
scorning laugh from Mr. Smith was the first
sound that broke the silence.
" You have been amusing yourself at my
expense in rather a sorry manner !" Allan
said, as this sound roused hien from the sort
of nightmare in which he had been walk-
ing, a,nd raised a sudden hope in his
Let me. go --I say, let me go. I shall hate
you now, Allan ; now I have injured you.
Mr. Smith spoke fiercely, and struggled
to release his arm from Allan's hold ; but
the clutch that held him, meehanieal and al -
:most involuntary as it was, was like the
convulsive clutch of the d.ying, he could not
escape from it.
" You shall not hate me," Allan said,
firmly. " I will let you go, for `I want time
to think—but not till you have promised to
do nothing rash—to sleep under that roof at
least one night longer."
" I promise. anything to get away from
Allan's hold relaxed', and Mr. Smith was
off towards the river. A few moments after-
wards, a boat shot swiftly forth from the
alder creek.,
Allan watched it fly down the river, dis-
appearing, to a.ppear aeain in one shining
reach after another. Alan watched svith-
out knowing that he watched ; the yhythm,
of the oars ga,ve rhythm to his thoughts—if
what went on within him, beating in his
brain, hammering at his heart, could be
ed thought.
Of course there was pain, exceeding bitter
pain, dominating all.
- The river looked like a chain of pools re -1
fleeting the last light of day, while darknesS
had settled down unon the woods and plain,1
vvhen the boat came back. Allan had seen
it, a black, speck upon the gleaming water, a,
long sva,y off ; he was at the landing -place
ALL IN THE WRONG ; OR, THE
TAMER TAMED
CHAPTER 'IX.
Cle.re was ill for a few clays—not danger-
ously or seriously ;abut when she came down
stairs again, es erybody thought her wonder-
fully altered in a short time—pale and thin,
and altogether subdued in look and manner.
During her illness, Allan did not find mulch
consolation in Mr. Smith's society. Mr.
Smith was .moody and bitter beyond his
wonted—tormented oy a perpetual restless-
ness, which drove him out night and clay.
"Allan," he broke forth one morning,
"when are you going to end this ?—to have
your fate decided ?"
." -Under-all the circumstances, it would
be most ungenerous -to press nnatters,though,
of course, the suspense is hard to bear. I
believe that a struggle is going on in poor
Clare's mind, between her old affection for
me and her natural rebellion against the
cruel and injurious way in which her father
tried to insure our marriage. I feel that
this is enough tomakeher dislike me ; but
I trust to time and patience to bring back
the old happy state of things,"
" I am afraid you . deceive yourself—
beguile yourself with false hope and vain
trust."
" Perhaps. Time will show."
" I begin to think that I had better :be
off."
" You will not leave us yet—not so sud-
denly—just as Clare is beginning to get over
your ways beginning, I do think, to really
like you."
" suppose I return the compliment, and
begin ` really to like' Miss Watermeyr.
What then?"
" My dear old fellow, I should be glad.'
Allan met .his friend's look with such a clear
brow,, such a friendly eye, there was no pos-
sibility of doubting his sincerity.
" Allan, you are a noble fellow !--grand
and guileless as a knight of Old. But, my
dear boy, idleness for long is intolerable and
impossible to me. I must go back to work
soon."
" Let it be -an indefinite and receding
`soon,' then."
Had Mr.• Smith satisfied his conscience by
his light skirmish on the borders of confes-
ion ? If so, it was easily satisfied.
It was on the afternomelif this same day
hat Mr. ,Smith came upon Clare unexpect-
dly, where she sat with a book on her knee,
n one of the curiously contrived garden -
eats, in therofound shade of the yew -tree
alk ; her face, as he saw it in profile
ainst the dark background, looked very
to and meek.
" Perhaps if I -`free my conscience by mak-
ing an honorable apology, I shall be more at
ase," thought Mr. Smith, as he approached
Cl
are.
Concluding that she was weak and nee=
sous still, lie begged her pardon for . having
artled he;- when he saw that she trembled:
" I am not on hostile but oill penitential
oughts intent," he said. " Last time we
puke together I—"
" Say nothing about that, if you please.
o not;let us refer to the past."
", You cannot forgive nye, then ?"
" Oh yes, if :I have anything to forgive,"
d she held out'her hand.
"-If yon have anything to forgive !—you
ve net only forgiven, but forgotten,then,"
Paid, with a grave smile that was almost
i-eet, as lie clasped the offered hand.
" Forgetter/.I !" she repeated, with a vivid
ash. " have had so much to think of—
ani perplexed, driven about—I want coun-
-I want help to do whit is right. You
uld give it nee if you would—will you ?
one else can ; they are all blinded by
it preconceived ideas of what is for my
d. May I ask your advice ?"
he looked up at hien ; let her hand for a
rnent—white and light as a snow-flake—
eh his sleeve.
` Do not try my -endurance too far," he
I, in a hoarse, hurried way.
' Oh, no. I am trying, like you, tet think

He looked at her sharply ; but in her face,
agitated and intent, he could see no sign of
ironyand, indeed, why . should he have
sought for any.
" People always think seriously when
they are ill, I suppose, according to the old
proverb,"—she smiled a twilight sort of
smile. " I have been thinking seriously
about my; fife—what the good of it is—how
1 can make it of any good to anybody. I
feel now that I can never • be happy, but I
should like{ to make someone else happy. If
I try with all my heart—give all my life
to it—do you " think I could make Allan
happy ?" .
" Why does she feel she can never be
happy mused Mr. Smith.
" By marrying and not loving him ?" he
asked, u,lolid.
" By rn rrying and re -learning to love
him. 1 diel love him dearly. Why should I -
not again ? Will it be safe for him that I
should tell ? Can I make him happy ? You
tet
seemed think I could not ; but then you
were angry with me, and not quite just. Do
you say he same now?" '
It is as,; hard for some inen to speak the
truth, when truth and self-interest have but
one voice, as for others to speak truth when
truth Speaks with one voice, self-in,,erest
with another.
" Miry Watermeyr, some demon—your
evil genius or mine—has led you to me for
counselThere is only one way in which I
can anseter .you,—by showing you how fit
an adviser you have chosen. I warned you
not to try my endurance too far. I am not
a man of iron or stone,"—he possessed hini-
self of her hand, and looked right into her
eyes—his hand and his glance seemed to
scorch her ; she shrank from them inward-
ly, the more that he seemed to be in pas-
sionate'earnest ; not taunting and mocking
her, as she could almogt have believed soon-
er than believe that' he loved her. " Do
you not feel that you are tempting me be-
yond what ea:Irian can endure ! Do you not
know that yoit are trying to deceive me and
yourself ? You cannot love Allan again—
you knew that you cannot You know that
you loye me—yes, me ! You do not dare
deny it, Clare you do not dare deny it.
And I ->-traitor as I am—I love you with a
love that has burnt up the unselfish love .of
•
when it came in.
" I am glad you are back at last—the
river is not safe in this uncertain light." He
helped to moor the boat, then led the way
to the house. ,
Mr. Smith staggered rather than walked„'
Allan was not sorry to see how thoroughly;
used up and tarried he was. When they en;
tered the library, Mr. Smith threwhimself
into a chair, laid his folded arms on th
table and his head upon them ; he had not
spoken.
Leaving him so, Allan went to look for
Clare. Till dusk • she had been locked in
her own room ; by that time the storm had
spent itself for the present ; she had washed
out the worst sting and stain, quenched the
first burning sense of insult, and was coin
pavatively calm,
Allan found her in the unlighted drawings
room, to which she had come for space to
-move and breathe. Several of the many
lattices were open wide, the stars looked he
upon her, the summer wind whispered to
her—without all was peaceful, with a holy
peace.
Clare had walked to and fro till she was
tired ; ,she was leaning in one of the win-
dows, looking out, when Allan came in ; he
was close to her before she knew it. They
could each see the other's face by the star
light, as they stood there close to the
bwinoth.dow ; pale, resolute young faces were
',Sister Clare, my poor little sister Clare,,”
Allan said, speaking to her as he had never
spoken before, as a gentle -hearted elder bre-
thee to a suffering sister.
With a low cry Clare leant towards him --
he opened his arms—she rested her head
against his breast ; there he held her press-
ed against his heart, as he thought, for the
last time.
Clare clung to him, and her tears fel
again, but very softly ; she was soothed and
comforted—inexpressibly soothed and com-
forted ; and yet something in Allan's tone,
something in his face, seemed to penetrate
to her heart's core, paining her with swill
aching,` boding pain as one feels when a lov-
ed voice says " farewell," and we know that
for us can be no well -faring when that voice
is no longer heard.
" You need not speak one word. Tenet
all to me ; I know all ; you need not speak.
one word," Allan said.
Then Clare lifted her head, looked up into
his face ; he did not read her face aright ;
to her his seemed as the face of -an angel.
" Come with me now," he whispered ; she
obeyed him unhesitatingly,, with no thought
of where he would take lief, only feeling that
she might follow him anywhere.
But when he opened the library door, and
she saw the lamplight falling on lb r.
Smith's bent head, she shrank back, clinging
to Allan. -
" Go , to him, Clare—comfort him -=;-you
only can," Allan said.
He led Clare fora arc] with gentle violence,
disengaged himself from her hold, disregard-
ing her low -spoken entreaty, " Do n t
leave me,"—perhaps not hearing it, he we t
away,
Mr. Smith had looked up, when the doer
opened, vacantly, stupidly at first, then ;:lie
sprang up, exell,iming—" Allan, you are
mad ! what_are you doing?"
But passionate hope flamed in his eyes as
TO
-
PRIL 27;1894.
he spoke, and looked at Clare.
Clare stood motionless just where an
had left her. In spite of eyes reddened
weeping; and cheeks tear -stained and bloo
less, yet not whiter than her lips she had
perhaps never looked so beautiftd. When
She spoke, it was with the coldest gentle-
ness.
" I did not know where my' cousin was
Isringing me. I can only guess under what
mistake he brought me here—perhaps it is
•as well as it is. You told him all that pass-
ed this afternoon ?"
" I told. him that I loved you, and had
confessed it, I. told him what, by your
manner, I fancy you are going to deny now,
that you love me—that you had not confes-
sed it in words, but that I did not doubt it ;
nor, if you now deny it, shall I now doubt
it ; I shall only think that your pride, being
too little, thinks the sacrifice too great."
He ,. was stung by her changed manner,
which showed him his lost supremacy.
" Then my cousin renounces me—gives me
up to you, believing that I love you ?"
" Believing that you love nie, he leaves
you free to marry me. Of this, that you
would marry me, I had never dreamt,wildly
as I may have dreamt. I should have been
far from here by this time, had not your
cousin extracted from me a promise to re-
main onemore\ night under this roof. In
remaining I had no hope. Wildly as I have
dreamt, I did not, I repeat, dare dream that
you would marry John Smith—well nigh a
beggar !"
" Yet you dated tell me that 1 love you !
throwing the accusation at me in a way to
make it a. most bitter insult."
" When a man is maddened by self-re-
proach and the conflict of passions, he can-
not stop to be choice of manner or words.
To tell you of your love and of mine was one
thing ; to ask you to marry me, knowing as
I do the conditions on which—"
" You heap one insult after another
upon me,—but perhaps I have merited them
all."
" I do not wish to be harsh --I have cause
eneugh to be humble—but you cannot deny
that.you have loved me," he demanded;
" I confess that for some time 1 half . be-
lie'red that I might ,come to Gare for you. I
believed it till this afternoon. I must con-
fess more, -and what is far more to my
shame, that. before 1 believed it possible
that I should care for you, r strove to win
your admiration—to fascinate you=even to
make you believe that I loved you—from
motives of revenge. My revenge has recoil-
ed on me—recoils on ; me doubly. I have
wronged you, and you have done me service,
taught me many lessons. I must ask your
pardon ; I do' so very humbly—not as I
could have done, had you acted differently ;
but still, very sincerely and very humbly, I
desire your foriveness of any injury I may
have done you."
Imprecations were • on Mr. Smith's lips,
but there was something pure and noble in
Clare's face that checked them. Refusals to
believe the truth of what she said he could
not bring himself to utter, for there was
something calm and truthful in Clare's mari-
ner that, against his will, impressed him.
A few seconds Clare waited to see if he
would speak ; he did not—he could not ; se
she left him, going straight to her own
room, to which . she presently summoned
Mrs. Andrews.,
" I have been false, and I have been fool-
ed," was Mr. Smith's explanation to Allan,
" fooled by a woman and false to my friend.
I atm learning to know myself. It was
quite fair, your cousin's game. Tell her I
said so—that she has my forgiveness, if she
cares for it. Now, if this were a comedy, 1
see an opening for a wind-up. It would turn
out that I had *an a most subtle And suc-
cessful metapliy cian, ' whose skill was only
exceeded by his benevolence' that my only
aim had been, ley contrast, to win your
lady's heart to you. Would to heaven it
were so ! I begaln by trying to play Provi-
dence for your benefit certainly ; but in real
life circumstances are apt to sway the man
more than the roan the circumstances.
False to my friend, fooled by a woman ;
these two little facts from the history of the
last few weeks—months, which is it ?-=-I--will
lay to heart."
Allan diel and said all that was manly and
Christian, striving to soothe the pangs of
mortification ancl self-reproach, which he
knew were indeed,. to such a nature as his
friend's, more bitter than death ; but the
present result of his efforts was to aggravate
rather than assuage the fierceness - of these
pangs.
" You heap corals of fire on my head,"
were Mr. Smith's parting words.
Having seen his friend off—driven him to
the nearest railway station—Allan, on his
return; was met by the news that Clare
had left her home, with no intention to re
turn to it.
Mrs. Andrews was her accomplice ;. she
had gone, properly escorted and attended,
to "some of Mrs. Andrews' friends in the
north," people in humble circumstances ;
with them she was to remain till she could
meet with a sr itable situation as governess.
Clare had let a letter for Allan, explain-
ing why she aoted thus, telling him that it
would be useless for him to try to learn
where she was—useless for him to try to
change her resolution or frustrate her
plans. '
" I am not worthy of you Allan, or I
should have loved you in spite of es ery-
thing. I am not humbled enough yet, or—
I will not say what I was going to say ; but
I know 1 am not worthy of you, and should
not make you happy. When you have been
married some years, and I am an 'old maid,'
I may perhaps come and live in that little
West End cottage which my father ordained
should be my home in such a case. Till then
we will not meet."
It was no use for Allan to storm or to en-
treat ; Mrs: Andrews was a trustworthy ac-
complice ; for the present, she would not re-
veal the secret of Clare's hiding -place.
Three months with those poor people in
the north, to whom she was nothing but a
governess out of a place, some experience of
the life of a governess, and then !-a moat
lame and impotent conclusion—a humiliat-
ing surrender.
Like a heroine, she battled with the grow-
ing certainty that she loved her cousin Al-
lan passing well, with " love of men and
women when they love the best ;" that she
reverenced him as nobler, wiser, better—far
noble}'', far wiser, far better than herself ;
that to submit to him with absolute submis-
sion, to depend on him with absolute de-
