ALMUND MORPETH."
It was a cruel letter, even he its pretend- •
ed kiednes in8 'e could only e bear a sen-
tence at a tine, and every sentence was like
a stone flu g at her affections I and self-re-
spect. Yet, in spite of all, he wept pas-
sionately o Ter her slam love and her faith-
less lover. All t4rrough the long night she
could reali e nothing but that he had left
her foreve . AS morning dawned, she fell
asleep, and lay Senseless and dreemleSe un-
til the noon hour. In the moment of wak-
ing, she endured it all over again. But the
necessity for action was imperative, and she
went at once to a lawyer. .
She knew hir+nly as a Mr. Nugent, the
son of an Independent minister, Who had
once been asseciated with her hither, but he
proved to be the 'Ivery friend he needed.
He heard her w Ole story without blame,
for he understoo why and how she had
been so easily d ceived in her marriage.
She had never se n an Episcopal ' wedding, -
and she had ofte seen the simple rite of
her father's chur h—a few words Of exhor-
tation and promi e, and the gift of a hring.
For the same Tea on •the lack of priestly
vestments did no strike her. Her father
had worn none. And when Mr. Nugent
asked her if no ce; tificate had been, signed,'
she answered:
"Certainly. . There was a paper about
our marriage, Which Lord More th, the
priest, the wanes es and Imyself signed.
Lord Morpeth ut it in hs pocket, pocket, and I
have not thought of it since," ,
1o! She had trusted everything t� love,
and love had foreinken her. I
Her friend was very honest. He pointed
out the complete weakness of her cesa, She
might,1 indeed, unish Lord Morpeth for
his baseness. Sile might Make hinz pay her
money: He did iot think, she 1iid other
redress. And as for the nhild, it w s likely
any court would onsider its welf re best

in the matter wonld be to gain n toriety,
and nothing elwould be much a noyed by such netoriety,
i; Lord Morpeth
; yet ae
she might in this way punish him if she so
Wished. But Catherine did: not wish to
punish him. She still loved him, and his
shame could not heal her shame.
"It is my child I want," she a swered.
* "I want to see her. I want to be n ar her ;
to be sure that she is cared: for an4 kindly
treated."
"If the little girl has been taken to Mor-
peth Court, I can find that m t," answered
Mr. Nugent.' " nel if you ill be content
with watching ov r your child and not over -
particular as to o portuuities, I can arrange
that much for y�u. You sh 11 hear from
me in a week, perhaps less!'
In three days she was sum oned to Mr.
Nugent's office. ;
"Your daughter," he said, "is now liv-
ing at Morpeth Cdurt. Her father left the
place yesterday. 1 I have- obtained a posi-
tion for you in the house es seamstress.

, "The nurse maY see and reeognize me."
"No one connected With the child's old
life is near her. She is thought to be a,
ward of Lord Morpeth's."
"My little girl 'i11know me." ,
"1 think you need not come in contact
with her. But yea must arrange for that
contingency yourseLf. This letter will in-
troduce you to the housekeeper, Mrs. Stead.
It is the best I cando."
"You have donowell for me. I am most

than law, and He can bring right out of

Early the next morning she was at Mor-
peth Court, nd anliour later she 'had pre-
sented her cr clentials and gone to the seem
assigned her. ' ,

The girl readily ac epted the offer, a
about eight o'clock latherine felt free t
move, for Mrs. Stead had a card party 1
her room, and she w s the only person li er
ly to visit the upper •art of the house. IIei
fore the hoer, °ether ne had given Adai a
few drops oblopium, nd as soon as its itt-
lluence was apparent, she lifted the child,
dressed her in the gart ents she had prepare1,

Ada in her arms, we. t rapidly across the,
fields to the maw y station. She knewl
there was a train to onclon at nine O'cloc , !
and she arrived at th depot just in time o
take a ticket for Mar et- orby,
But she had no intention of getting off abi
Alarket-Sorby, though she left her next
move to the first favoring circumstance
She found it not mor than twenty miles
from Morpeth, at G lston village. There
had been a fair et this place, and a great
Crowd was at the can li, wayside station
She slipped out of bhe train,' and passin
through it, went inbo the ladies' waitin
room. Here she staid until the night e
press for Glasgow arrived, and on it she
went northward. When she reached Gle
gow it was early morning, a,nd she knew thalt
the child would be missed. So she hastene
to the Broomielaw, where she saw a steame
just ready to sail for !Belfast. In half an
hour she was on her *ay to Ireland, and
the child was cheerfully taking its breakfast
at her knee. Once in 1 Ireland, she made
her way as rapidly as lpossible to Movillel
and was fortunately in :time for the Anchor
Line steamer Circassia.
On the Atlantic she realized, her position.i
Hitherto she had been I like ea person in a
dream, moving with the same unconscious)
ness and celerity ; and "also With the same,
assurance and success. But sitting through
the long days,, she had ' time to con-.
sider her situation. Possibly Almund sus-
pected her, and if so,; he might cable the!
police in -New York to -
watch for her ar-1
rival—but this was not 1 at all likely. He,
did not know of her heather's existence, or
if in some previous 'confidence she had:
named him, it was as ' a wandering, black 1
sheep: poor, and, perhaps, not reputable.
Her knowledge of hie newly acquired
wealth, had only come to her with her ,
father's death. She had had no conversa-
tion with Almund after it. From what she
knew of her husband, he was more likely to ,
look for the child in some of the little'
European. teems where I they had been so
happy together; and where life was seclud-
ed and economical to the Iasi point.
However, if he suspected her course, and
had taken means to arrest it, her brother
was in New York. She would appeal to;
him. He was rich, he. would defend her
claim, and she had else it Conviction that
the law of that new, free eOuntry, wou11!
not under the circumstances, 'take her third'
from her. If it was necessary, she would,
tell all to save it. Surely she had paid'
dearly enough for the liatle one!
As the days wore on and they neared'
land, she gathered strength with every

hour. Her courage rose, she put doubt an
fear beneath her feet, and walked to the
gangway, Iook4ng , unflinchingly into . the
faces she met. No one attempted to stay
her, and she stepped into a cab and drove
to a hotel, which she had heard recommend-
ed on the ship. She did not send for :her
brother at once; she knew too well the
value of beauty adorned, and though she
had bought some -clothing at Belfast, it was
not suitable for the importer' e , of the first
impression she wiehcd to niti e.'; In a cor,ple-
of days, however, Ada was ; radiant in
*bite embroideries and pink ribbons, and
Catherine gravely handsome in that soft,
rich black silk which fits all occasions.
Then a messenger was dispatched with a °
note foe Mr. Thomas Raeburn and Cather-
inc anxiously awaited the reaulte
Befoiie she had begun to expect the
answer her brother came himself with it.
She heard his voice on the stairway, and
knew 1 ; and when he entered the room
she sa a younger likeness of her father. It

could n t have g n anywhere in the weld
and ben so hea tily welcome:, Mr. i Rae -

ly, and his fine h use had been at the mercy
of brut lly thievi h servants ever since 1
"1 3 just thi 'king ef selling all they

." Co e home I' These two words cov-
ered th life of th next three years.Cath-
erine a d Ada r ally went ' liornee" All
they h d. Cath rine ruled her brot er's
that gr at love a d great wealth could give
house N ith a fir and gracious •'hand, and
Ada w his pet rid pride ; wh* e both 'ac-
cepted their pleas nt life and 1 lot with a
happy cheerfulne s which made Ja. perp4tua1
sunshine. As far as it was possible, ath-
erme strove to fo get the past. In the ear-
liest hours of thei meeting, sh had told
her brother all her sad story; and in order
to satisfy her natural anxiety, Ile had pro-
cured, through a newspaper ag ncy, fites of
English papers covering the p riod of her
flight. From these she learne4 that Lord
Morpeth had at flrst been prost ated by the
loss of his ward, and that subs quently he
had not only employed the beat detectives
but also closed his house put 41T his mar-
riage, and gone himself in searct of the ale -i
ducted child. The papers na ed; ith a
tone of surprise, Bulgaria .as hib first pointi.
But Catherine understood why he had gone
first to Bulgaria e arid this understanding
included the less obvious one that he be4
lieved she had been the abductor, or else,
why Bulgaria? And if he divined so ars he
would also comprehend that she had been
in his house for months, and had seen and
understood his relationship to Miss Aller-
ton.
She gave him a year to go over the ground
they had travelled together, sn,d then, per,
haps, he would come to America. Buil
three years had passed .in serene content)
and there was no sign which indicated that
her asylum had been discovered. Catherine
grew young again, more nobly beauliffulL
more self -composed, graceful and grampus.
And Ada—Who was now a charming little
girl six years old—Was beginning to rule
her uncle with an absolute but lovin
authority. If.Catherine had any longing o
heartache from the past, she carefully kept
it out of the present, and not one of he
friends suspected the tragedy she had lived
through. As she bore the name of Mrs.
Almund, she was believed to be a widow,
and society knows well that the loss of a
husband is not always a calamity, so no one
inquired into particulars that did not eon -
cern them. In the summer, Mrs. Al mid's
house parties at her brother's Newport resi-
dence, were delightful enough to quiet Curi-
osity, and in winter her dinners and kiances
made the Raeburn home on Madison venue
a resort to which many looked happily for-
ward.
Thus the time Went by, until rno e than
three years had Passed, and it was again
drawing near to Christmas. ' One bright,
frosty morning, ' Mr. Raeburn, Caliherine
and Ada went out together. They were n ,
an open carriage, wrapped in rich furs, nd
were going down the avenue at a rapid
pace. Catherine was talking eagerly, ;her
face bright ,' with pleasure and rosy With
health and fine spirits. Suddenly, in the
midst of a I sentence, abet paused, turned
deathly pale) and, layirig her hand on her
brother's arm, said a few words in a whis-
per. "Are you sick, Catherine ?" he asked,
i tenderly.
