"I thought it more probable that
she was obliged to earn her bread.
A convict's daughter, with a worth-

"Miss Surtees is a noble girl,"
said Daunt, sternly, "and for her
brother I have a strong personal
regard. As for poor old Mr. Sur -
tees, we may yet find that there
has been some terrible mistake."
"I cannot share your feeling, Sir
Richard Daunt. But do not bet us
quarrel over these wretched people."
It was not Daunt's wish, either,
to break with the Waldos, and, al-
though he soon afterwards took his
leave, he shook hands with Mrs.
Waldo cordially as he said good
niAglit.
As be passed down into the hall
he was conseions that sonic one was
close behind him on the stairs. On
reaching the last landing he heard a
side -door open, and the rustle of
a dress ; then the words, spoken low
but distinctly -
"Leon, 0 faut que je to parle de-
mainnill"
Aturtling sharp round, Daunt
saw that it was Panchette address -
in the Cuban.
"This toi imbecile," replied the
Marquis; promptly, pointing to
Daunt, and Fanchette as rapidly
withdrew.
In the hall the two men met and
!coked at each other. Suddenly the
etarquis burst out in a loud laugh.
"Do not betray me to that excel-
lent and respectable demo, Mrs.
Waldo," he said. "It is a simple
amourette. Quoi ? 1 am human,
and soubrettes were always to my
taste."
But their meeting, and the brief
words spoken, the employment , of
the familiar ntu" on both sides,
gave Daunt food for still deeper,
thought when he reviewed the events
of the 'evening.
