A flight of stairway leadeth thence"—
Here The parchment had suffered so
grossly at the bands of time or from
the assaults of its natural enemies that
the_characters became unreadable and
finally ceased. -
It was plain that this sheet had some
connection with the disclosure Mr. Kes-
teven had intended to make to me, but
beyond this con'clusion I could not go.
And so after a desultory study of the
ancient characters I put it aside, lock-
ing it more by habit than of intentional -
prudence in nay private letter case. '
I now stood honorably charged with
the last offices to my deed friend. An
inquest was inevitable in the circum-
stances, but it was no more than a for -
Malay, and my evidence, with that of
the houi3ekeeper, Mrs. Main, and the
doctor from Llanellan, was sufficient to
close the invetitigation. It was not un-
til these ceremonies were over that I
experienced my second surprise, a. sure
prise which, although I had become
somewhat acquainted with the eccen-
tricities of the man, fell upon me like a
thunderbolt. Upon the morning after
the funeral I rode into Raymond to pay
a visit to .the lawyer, Greenstreet by -
name, who, I understood, acted on Mr.
Kesteven's behalf. I- regarded this as
the last of my melancholy duties, which
discharged, I was free on more to re-
sume the tour which had been so
strangely interrupted. Mr. Greenstreet
the little fat, bowing solicitor whom I
had already seen, received me with po-
lite ceremony. His face were a min-
gled expression of solicitude and satis-
faction as he fussed in a nervous maze-
ner with his papers. .
"A most melancholy end, Mr. Great"
-
rex," said he, shaking his head; "so
sudden, and a sterling, honorable man,.
sir. Well, we must all go some day."
I put the question for which I had
come and in response was saluted with
a stare of astonishment,'
"Any assistance, Mr. Greatorex?" he I
echoed, surveying me, with his mouth '
open. "Any assistI nce? Well, 1 sup-
, pose you can be o some aosistance."
:And he chuckled heartily, as if invit-
ing me to join in WS joke.
I told him that I 4nes leaving the dire,
trict that same day aud would 14ke to
know in what way I might aid hint,
seeing that it was improbable that I
should revisit the neighborhood.
"Then you do not intend to reside at
the castle?" he asked.
There was a certain tone of condem.
nation in his voice which, though I was
et a loss to account for, I could not
but recognize,
"Why, certainly not!" said 1. "Why,
In the name of fortune should 1? My,
only idea was, for Mr. Kesteven's sake'
to smooth his affairs for his 011egeS.;

It, that youreold master has left you a

The man started visibly, and for a
second his dark eyes shone on mine.
Ho seemed almost as Surprised as I
had been, but he recovered his aston-
ishment next minute and dropped, his
gaze,
i`Thank you, sir. It is Very kind of

said I, smiling.
"Be was always very good to me,

He stood silent, as though for me to
enter, but as I did so he said respect-
fully:
"I suppose we shall be losing you,
sir? It's a great tbing for Mr. Kes-
teven to nave bad you with him in his
trouble."
"Well," said I, with a little latighe
which I really could not restrain in my
excited condition, "not just yet, Heed,

toed him I did not yet know and
rode up the park, leaving him to 'fix

I had said no less than the truth
when I had answered Hood's ques-
tious, but circumstances soon made my
'resolution for me. The rumor of my
inheritan.ee was spread about the coma -
try, and I fouad myself suddenly ele-
vated to new dignity in the eyes of the
neighborbood. And the first fruits of
this celebrity appeared in tui unexpeet-
ed visit from my young acquaintance,
Montgomery. His farm, it seemed, was
a mile or two from the castle, lying in
the next valley, and he rode over to
offer me Lie cougratulationa. It was

from/a long and gentle race, could uot
whofly be concealed in the dull and
uneducated individuality of its last
representative. He certainly knew a
great deal about horses, and as a re-
sult we grew itery friendly ere he left,
When he did so, it was with a frank
hope, boyishly expressed, that I intend-
ed to live at the castle, •
But it was not due to the argumeuts
of Montgomery that I finally decided
to stay at the castle, but to an incident
very different, which fell out in the
following way on the next evening: I
had dined early, and as the light was
still very full across the valley I eaun-
tered out through the park and wan-
dered down the road toward the
Woodmen. When I reached the inn I
noticed in the twilight the figure of a
stranger leaning against the stone
coping before the doorway smoking a
cigar. At this mornent Hood emerged
from the taproom, and I nodded to
him, asking if he had heard yet from
the solicitor.
"Yes, sir; thank you, sir," he replied.
"It's a very welcome present, sir;
many thanks to my poor master."
"Well, you seem to be getting on,"
said I, with a glance toward the .
stranger, who, seeing my eyes on him,
lifted his hat and smiled.
"Yes, sir," responded Hood in a
lower voice. "The gentleman's come to
Ally a bit, sir. Name Captain Sera
cornbe, sir. You don't bappen to know
him? No, sir. I thought I'd. mention it,
in case you did. The gentleman likes
the fresh air, sir. He's been living
abroad. I always told poor Mr. Kes-
teven that I'd make it pay, sir." And
a furtive smile crept into Hood's som-
ber face and broadened it into a grin.
The stranger advanced in a leisurcily
fashion and said good day; then, conk-
ing an eye at the clouds, asked me my
opinion of the weather. I gathered
that he was a fisherman and that the
stream in the valley had excited his
hopes. He was a very tall man of
forty or more, somewhat stoutly built
and with a military gait. His face,
which was bare save for a long red-
dish mustache, was puffy and swollen,
but he had a pleasant gray -green eye
and a genial and engaging manner.
Ms thin red hair was carefully brush-
ed over a rather bald head.
