The party that evening consist-

"A naughty schoolboy suddenly
stricken with age and put into pet-

description of Mrs. Hamlin.
After dinner the•party sat out
on :the terrace, and the two men
smoked cigars while Cousin Emily
Hamlin consumed numerous cig-
arettes, which she stuck into a
long amber holder. The contrast
of her'appearance, in a sternly
conventional old ladylike black
dinner dress and lace cap, with the
rakish cigarette, and her still more
rata h% conversation, was a per-
petual delight to Ivor and Mr.
Grindel-Thorpe. To Lady 'Hanover

"The devil!" said Cousin Einllar:`
suddenly in her deep tragic veleta:
"rMy shoes are jolly wet — the
dew's falling like 'the dickens. It'ni
time we were off to 'bye-bye,-• An
thea.'
p1e
That night Jean, her fair hair
,tied back with a ribbon, looking,
girlish and beautiful in her pale:
blue 'dressing -gown, came to her
mother's• room.
'Lady Hanover, attired in her.
thin summer wrapper of magenta
cashmere, depleted of her neatly
curled front, and sewing her read-
ing glasses, was eittingconiaingber'
favourite evening hymn,, as was
her custom. Jean sat down oar
the sofa. Her mother raid aside
her 'book.
"Well, my dearest," she began,
then paused, startled and hdrritied
by her daughter's' face.
The two women looked at each
other,
YOh, Mamma! said the girl,
"what have I done? What have I
done?"
"Jean," cried the affrighten,ed:
woman. "Child, what is the mat-
ter?" She came to the sofa. There
was silence for a few moments.
Jean sat staring in front of her.
"I think I hate Ivor," she said
in a cold hard voice. "I hate him.
Oh, Mamma,. why didn't I know?
I v,-ould never have .married if I
had known." She began to fry.
"Jean, you hate 'him! Dear child,
what areyou saying? Hate your
husband? What can you mean?"
"'Mean?" sobbed the girl. "I
mean what I say. I hate to be
married_ I hate it and I wish I
was dead. It's all horrible." She
began to cry again hysterically.
Lady Hanover spent the saddest
and most alarming hour of her life
in that gay, rose -papered chintz -
draped room. Her sane, unimagina-
tive .and strictly Fonventional view
of life was shattered,. An abyss of
tragedy yawned before her. But
at the end of that distressing hour
hope entered into her heart — it
seemed more than probable that
physical disturbance might account
for the poor girl's hysterical con-
dition.
Lady Hanover could not really
condone hysterics, even the hyster-
ics of her only child. Still, it
would be time later on to speak,
of that.
Meanwhile, Jean, white and ex-
hausted, lay on her mother's bed.
She had drunk sal volatile; a hot-
water bottle was at her feet.
Landy - Hanover resumed her
front, tied a lace scarf over her
head and sallied forth. For a few
moments she hesitated, then turn-
ed towards' the rooms which had
been prepared for the bride and
bridegroom — within whose walls'
many a Selincourt had first seen
the light, had lived, loved and died.
Both rooms were empty. Lady
Hanover made her way downstairs,
an oak board creaking startlingly
now and again under her substan-
tial tread.
At the door of the smoking room
she paused, again, then opened, it
cautiously.
The long windows were still un -
shuttered; the moon shone in and
showed a figure lying back in the
great leather arm -chair- At the
noise of her entry Dominic sat up
and whined very gently, and as.
Lady Hanover looked her heart
softened:
"Poor lad," she sighed.
Womanlike her sympathies flow-
ed out to the .man—to her still but
a boy—lying there asleep, lonely
and unwanted by the woman, he
loved.
She moved a
sleeping figure,
start awoke.
He stared at her dazedly for a
moment, then pulled' himself to-
gether.
ogether.
I must have fallen asleep," he
egan with a rather poor attempt
t, a laugh.
"Oh, my dear boy!" said Lady
Hanover.
Sitting down in, the large writ-
ing -chair, this stout practical fe-
male, shaken out of all her confi-
dence in the pleasant orderly way
of existence, began to weep.
