I love your daughte and site loves me. She is willing t wait for me, and I will work to ear a sufficient income to keep her com fortably." "That is all very well," said Lor Lockfinnan; "but don't you think i would be more the part of a gener- ous and honourable man to leave he free until you have earned that in- come? You know, you may neve earn it," he added dryly. "I do not hold Cecily bound," saki Jack. "It is her love for me that binds her. I shall never reproach her if she marries some one else instead of waiting; but I know she never will marry any one else." "You can at least give me a prom- ise that you will not attempt to see her, or to write to her, or to do any- thing. to put her in mind of you till, as I say, you have earned an income sufficient to keep her in comfort." "No," exclaimed Jack, "I refuse to do that! I know I could never keep such a promise. She has told me that she loves me, and I know such a promise on my part would make her miserable. I• will promise that I will not constantly write to her—I don't think she would allow me to do that if you objected --I pro- mise' 1 will not attempt to see her constantly, but I will not promise to efface myself entirely. Why should 1?" "Why should you?" cried Lord Lochfinnan, rising' in great wrath. "Because it is a great piece of im- pertinence your thinking of my dau- ghter at all!" "She does not think so," said .Tack, with irritating coolness. "There is no more to be said," an- swered Lord Lochfinnan, trying to recover himself. "I refuse to give my sanction to an engagement be- tween you and my daughter, and, though 1 do not wish to be inhospit- able, I shall consider it a favour if you will leave this house as soon as the Doctor considers it safe for you to be moved." "You need not be afraid that I shall not do that,' replied Jack. "I have already spoken to Doctor Meade about it, and he thinks that I might go batik to my own place tomorrow." Lord Lochfinnan was a little as- hamed of himself. "Believe me, I don't wish that," he said, "b1 any other circum- stances I should most earnestly wish you to remain here till you were en- tirely restored to your usual health. But h1 these—" He paused. (All rights Reserved) 2dF.„ I Jack finished the sentence for him. r, "You earnestly wish me to clear 0 out as soon as possible. I don't n blame you. You couldn't possibly' - wish anything else. You will allow me to say `Good-bye' to Lady Ce - c1 city?" t "I don't think you should ask that," replied Lord Lochfinnan. r "What purpose can it serve except to make her unhappy?" r "It will make her more unhappy not to see me," said Jack boldly. "Perhaps I am the best judge of that," said Lor -d Lochfinnan; and he avoided further argument by walk- ing to the door. He knew very well that he had reckoned a little without his host de- ciding that Jack and Cecily wore not , to have a farewell interview. He f knew very well that his daughter would insist upon it if she knew Jack ; was going so soon. If she knew—that was the point. She must not know. Lord Lochfinnan thought that per- haps he might got his unwelcome guest out of the house without his daughter knowing anything about it. But here too he reckoned wrongly, for as Cecily walked back front Mrs. Scott's house she met Doctor Meade walking up to it. Site stopped and spoke to him, and asked after the progress of his pa- tient at Haddis Castle. "Is he really getting quite well?" she asked, not taking the trouble to conceal his anxiety. "He is making touch quicker pro- gress than I ventured to expect," re- piel the Doctor. "In fact he is so far recovered that I have acceded to his wish to leave the Castle tomor- row" "Tomorrow?" cried Cecily in dis- may. "Surely it is a risk his going so soon!" "My dear child, I would not let him run any risks," said the Doctor; "but I agree with hien that he ought to go as soon as he possibly can. You see, he has not far to go. Your fa- ther's brougham •will take him back to his shooting -box in an hour." Cecily stood considering ,for a moment, Then she said—. "And it is quite settled?" "Quite settled, I think!" answered the Doctor. "But, does my father know?" "No, probably not, as it was only this morning Grandison and I set, tied it between us, But I don't think your father will make any difficult - les," replied the Doctor, with a twinkle in his eyes. The twinkle made Gorily angry. "Good-bye!" she said abruptly, and left him to pursue her way homewards. The Doctor looked after her with a smile and a sigh. Cecily Sim'riecl back to the Castle and went in search of her :father. She found him in his study, and 11t once spoke her mind. "Father," she said, "Doctor Meade tells me that Jack is going away to- morrow." "Then all I can say is that it was exceedingly officious of Doctor Meade to tell you anything of the lciltd," replied Lord Lochfinnan, lay- ing down his newspaper and looking at hie daughter. "rather, you can't let him go! It might kill him!"

"I have no wish to do anything clandestine." Thus it was finally agreed that 'Lord Lechflnnan should preside that afternoon at a parting interview be- tween his daughter and Jack Grandi- son. Haddis undertook to prepare the young man for the privilege. Accordingly at six o'clock that eventing Lord Lochfinnan solemnly escorted Cecily up to Jack Grandi- son's room, Jack was awaiting the visit with feverish impatience, mingled with an intense anxiety lest he should not stake the very most of it. By the time his visitors arrived he was tins strung from fatigue and excitement. He rose quickly to his :feet when the door opened and Lord Lochfinann ushered Cecily 111, "I promised my daughter that she should see you once more in return for Poe promise that it should be the last time," began Lord Lochfinnan rather pompously. Rut els words fell on deaf ears. At sight of her lover, looking so pale and thin and wertk, Ceclly uttered a little cry, ran to him, and threw her arm around his neck. He clasped her to him, and for a fete moments no word was spoken. Lord Lochfin- nan looked on helplessly. He was very angry with them both, but 115 was not a moment when anything could be said. He sat clown by the table and began to turn over the pages of a magazine which lay there. Cosily gently released herself from Jack's hold and made him sit down. She knelt beside him, and let hint hold her hands while she leaned lightly against her shoulder, "I want to tell you," he said, "that I wish you to regard yourself as ah solutely free. If at any moment you begin to regret ever having given me your promise, remember I don't hold you to it! I only desire your happiness. If ever it should teem to 1 you that your happiness lies else• Where than in waiting for mc, think of lie no more, I rka11 have no right or desire to reproach you," "You know," she answered vehem• hod Cecily. "He would have been e nn times more miserable if he had Ot seen me!" She disengaged her arm from his eitic grasp and rushed away to her tun. room, whence she did not em- erge that day. Cecily did not appear the next morning when Jack Grandison left the Castle. Haddis went with the young man in the brougham. He felt it was the least he could do to see him safe in the care of his own friends. There was not much conversation between the two men during the drive from Haddis Castle to the, shooting -box. Jack was too depress- ed from physical weakness and men- tal distress to be willing to talk to an t'nsympaehotic listener. More- over he had not yet got over his yes - I terday's lack of self-control; and he suspected that his companion had heard of this episode and despised hint accordingly. This was in fact the case. Haddis had never been ill, He know noth- ing of physical weakness, and when his father had recounted to him the scene that had taken place he was disgusted, and suspected Jack of an unmanly attempt to work on Cecily's feelings. At the sane time, deep down in his heart, he felt a certain sympathy with the disappointed lover which he had not felt until he him- self fell in love with Lilihh Mansfield, "Poor fellow, it is rough on him!" was what he said to ltimself. And this feeling moved hint, when et length the carriage turned 111 at the wooden gate which gave entrance to the small dnmaiat surrounding the shooting -box, to turn to Jack and say• "You will get over it, you know Everybody says that kind of thing does not last." "1 shall not got over 151" cried Jack, rousing himself. "I don't mean to got over it, I will marry your sister one day—unless of course she gets over it," Haddis made no reply, and as the carriage drew up before the door Jack added -- "All the sane, you have been very good to me, and I thank you very sin- cerely." "Oh, that's all right!" responded Haddis gruffly. "We are about quits there, I think. If ever I eau da any- thing for you• -•unconnected with my sister --I hope you will ask me." "I certainly shall not!" replied Jack. "Is it likely I would ask lav ours of a man who did not think me 1'/ r Iv Jit . :,Ian hr Id "That et y"u ig man ou •1,t til) h.• ilr•rc now." , "I 11pp ..r I had better ger away if you went to pe;tk to hien on bs,i- i" ,8'? said Lilith. "I'lahaps you haul bitter,"' replied Mrs. Mansfield. "But come back, I my darling! I want you to knots him; I think you will like him." "I should U o Id certainly like' to see the I num who has created such a com- motion," observed Lilith. "Here he le now!" she added, as the door op-• ened. The next moment the waiter an- nounced "Mr. Grandison!" Lilith slipped out of the room while her stepmother was greeting the visitor. t "I ant delighted to see you!" said Mrs. Mansfield, looking with some- thing like tenderness into the young man's :ace. "Are you quite strong again?" "Quite," he assured her. "And li quite ready for any work which you , a may have found for me, to do." Mrs. Mansfield smiled; then she said slowly— "I am not so sure that you will altogether approve of the work I 'have found for you. But you have only to refuse it if you do not like it," "I shall not refuse anything!" he answered stoutly. "Sit down, then, and I will ex- plain to you," she said, seating her- self in the chair Lilith had vacated anti pointing to another near at hand for him. She paused a moment and then said— "I have not found it quite so easy Sts I perhaps led, you to expect I should to find you suitable and lucra- tive employment. When I go back to America I shall find it easier. But :for the present I am not sufficiently in touch with things to have a great deal of influence.
