Len Rollers had dreamed of
fame and glary when, as a mem-
ber et the, Davis Cup Teara, he
w.ould play for Amierica. But he
falls in love with Grape Worth-

give up tennis. Len injures, his
ankle and the nectars tell him
he can never ,play agate Heand
Grace are married and live hap-
pily on his salesman's salary.
But the ankle improves, and Len
wants to play again. Grace says
She will not be the wife of a ten-

playing, she goes out with Rich-

She took a step forward, small

"Thank you," she replied' quietly.
"It means eo much to both of us."

As Len threw his het into the lock-
er after luncheon Weir said: eJus-
tin wants to see you; and there's a
letter ,for you over at the counter."
Tbe letter was addressed to him in
evenly spaced typewriting on- rich
stationery. Puizthe he turned it' ov-
er. On the sealed flap was embossed,
"Dayton P. Richmend." He opened
the letter antl. read:

Mr. Arthur Justin's secretary stood
just inside the door of his paneled;

up nem his, desk. Then she an-
nounced: "Mrs. Rollins to see you,
Mr. Justito Sans she has an appeine

"Oh, yes. Show her in, please."
Justin rose as Grace entered and
took her outstretched .hand. "It's

been s good to Lan'—and .to me."
She peeled' off her gloves.. "I'm not

"Not at all," Justin replied, offer-

then, in believing as she always had,
that he meant less to him than the,

Indiana job.
"Oh, tell me whatit is, Len! Was

"Oh, yes," he said laughingly-. "I

"We are, Gracie. We're going to-

-"Don't stop- Len. Say it. If you

His jaw set solidly. "All right, If

"But it won't" he cut in. "How

you that- already?"
"It has begun even now," she said.
"It bas not. quit when we get
back, honestly I will, Gracie."
"No yeti won't."
"You're not fair. You misinterpret,

ments. Take your fatally, for in -
instance. And Rielhard. Whyte."
• "Please! They don't enter into this
discussion."
n'But they do. They've been 'pois-
oning your mind against me;. at least
against my playing. Oh, perhaps- not
directly, but indinectly. Ybu can't
very well spend a week -end out there
without 'being somewhat influenced
by it all, without perhaps wishing
that you were part of that life
again."
She answered. "I give it all up
for you, and I don't ever care about
going back to it, unless—there is no
alternative."

The returning officer, Henry Hynd-
man, With the verbal approval of
some other magistrates, erected the
public hustings, in -the centre of the
market square of Goderieh. Next day --
at noon Longworth had them burnt
as a trespass on the private property
of the Canada Company. The day
after the returning officer re -erected
them on the same spot, and at night
there was a second attempt to fire
them. Tar was poured on the plat-
form and the boards. in front of it,
and later a portion of a tar -barrel
from the company's stores was found
on the spot, fixing the guilt: The re-
turning, officer, however, prevented
tbe setting of the fire, and complain-
ed to the government of the affair,
but obtained no satisfaction. Long-
worth' interferences with discipline
in the militia in the .rebellion of 1837-
38 on the St. Clair and at borne, and
Jones' subsequent favors to him as
narrated' by Lizars, make astonishing
•padipkg.,_but arebeefted the scope of
our story at present. "Of the mast

education, a public arsoner, lawless
ruffian and convicted felon .
sycophant,. friend and adviser of Mr.
CorEmissieeer • Jones," and again;
"criminal ante alsandcfnenefelon," as
Lizars called him, Longworth ruled
the "hapless county of Huron" until
at least 1840, when Jones came to
Goderich to live, Longworth and
Jones, Irish themselves, favored the
Irish, and Lizars reports a rumor that
they would procure the appointment
of a crew of ignorant, illiterate and
low -bred -Irish to be J.P.'ses Certain-
ly Jones, Prier and. Longworth. were
the unholy trinity of the Huron Tract
in the opinion of the Colborne Cleoue,
and their conduct gave natural. of-
fence to all who had much to do with
them. No- -doubt they were best
known and least favorably known
round Goderich; the settlers in the
nterior; except Van Egmond, did not
eel their hands heavy. Certainly the
people of Huron had no ideal rulers
in either private or public conduct
in the days of the Canada Company,
and most of the blame is to be laid
at the door of Thomas Mercer Jones,

ompany did nothing else, says Liz-
rs. Nor did te know anything of

iven up a "noble farm" on Yonge
treet to go to the Tract, had bought

arge and thriving stock. In 1837 or
838 he asked for a loan with which
to build a stone house, but the com,

per loans,, he says, sawraills, grist

up and, prosperity would have aboud-

ars is .off the track; the company did
help poor settlers by loans, of pro-
visions and read work, as we have
seen, and it did lend money to Van
Egmond and others in 1830. These
actions were the exception, hottever,
and not the rule, and no doubt Liz -
ars' statements are in general freeze
