interview.
He also arose. He looked at her—

"I will, my child, I will; and may the

CHAPTER XXXI.
'.•
The next day Dr. Clark
had inter-
viewan
with Casslnovo in the prison and
pointed out to him that the only course
to prevent Laura giving evidence was to
make her his wife.
Cassinove at first demurred, but the,
good doctor easily persuaded him that
it would be for the best.
And then he took his leave for a
Cohort time to make the arrangements
for the strange marriage.
First he called at the lodgings of Miss
Elmer, whom he found dressed as if for
a walk.
"My carriage is at the door, my child,
and if you are going to visit our prisoner
this morning, I will gladly take you
there," said the doctor, artfully.
"I thank you; I was just going; I am
quite ready, and need not detain you an
instant," sad iMss Elmer, joining him.
He took her to the prison, through all
the halls and passages to the cell of Cas-
s/move, saw her enter, and then withdrew
to procure the special license. Then he
cared upon Cassinove's old pastor, the
Rev. Henry Watson, of St. Matthew's.
He found the good old man in his study,
end in a private interview, explained to
bite the service for which he was wanted.
Now, among the very law who had
an unshaken faith in the innocence of
Csasinove,was' the Rey. Mr. Watson, the
tor, who 'had known him intimately
from childhood up to maturity. So af-
ter a little hesitation at the strangeness
of the service required of him, and after
being assured by the doctor that there
were good reasons why the marriage

Laura was accommodated with a seat
near Mr. Cassinovo's counsel.
Dr. Clark unwillingly took his place

Crown.

in and leaning on the arm
into the prisoner's dock. He looked
around himself, over the sea of faces
upturned to his; no friendly look among
there; the hundreds of eyes fixed upon
him; no kindly glance from them, Cur-

expression of the multitude.

were ushered in by the turnkey, who im-

Dr. Clark recognized the Duchess of

and presented pleasure,
the Rev. Mr.Wat
Wat-
son.
The little party quite filled up the nar-
row cell.
"The officers of the prison seem to
think that you are holding a levee this
morning, Cassinove, and are probably
wondering what it, is about. I did not
think proper to voluntter an explana-
tion," said Dr. Clark, cheerfully.
"Young lady," said the minister, ap-
proaching Miss Elmer, and speaking in
a low voice, 'is this step that you are
about to take well considered?"
"Yes, sir, it is well considered," an-
swered Laura Elmer, gravely and firmly.
„heaven,then, I must

proceed. Stand up, if you please," said
the minister, opening his book.
Cassinove arose and led Laura before
him.
Dr. Clark took his place beside Cassin-
ire, and the young duchess stood by
Laura Elmer.
The marriage ceremony was commenc-
ed with the usual formulas. When they
came to the question, "Who giveth this
woman to be married to this man?"
'I do," said the venerable Dr. Clark,

from his childhood up. With these Cas-
sinove was astonished to see old Colonel

looking worn and wasted as though from
illness. Cassinove beckoned Mr. Fulmer,
his junior counsel ,and inquired:
"How came Colonel Hastings hither?"

where his constitution received a terrible
shock in the death of his only and ido-
lized son"
"The death of his son? Mr. Albert
Hastings? When did he die?" inquired
Cassinove, in surprise.
"About a month ago."
"Was he" long ill?"
"In body, not an hour. In mind, always
I fear. He blew out his brains after los-
ing fifty thousand pounds at a eard table
in Baden-Baden. It has broken his fath-
er's heart, as you may see. The old
man was ill for many adys after the cas-
tastrophe, and has only just arrived in
England, to serve you, if he can, he
says."
The attorney -general proceeded to
open the case for the Crown by stating
at large the facts attending the mur-
der for which the prisoner at the bar
had been indicted, commented severely as
he progressed upuon the atrocious nate
ure of homicide in general, and of this
murder in particular, wherein he said '
were all the vices of ingratitude, hypo- ,
crisy and cowardice. Wherein the prison-
er, ?'sung in years, but old in crime, had
henhnously murdered his own benefactor
—not in broad daylight, face to face with
his intended victim—no! but "in the
dead waste and middle of the night," .
when all the household save himself,
had sunk to innocent repose, the coward-
ly assassin stole to the bedchamber of
Sir Vincent Lester, and there, in that

In the meantime Laura Elmer had g
passed into the cell of her betrothed.
Oaesimove was sitting just where the
doctor had left him on the side of his
mattress, with les hands clasped toge-
ther and his head sunk upon his breast.
He looked up as Laura entered, and, ria-
ing extended his hands to her, saying:
"Oh, Laura! oh, my guardian sprit,
can you surmise what Dr. Clark ,has
been saying to me this morning?"
"Yes, yaw, mine own, for I sent him to
say it," replied Laura Elmer, with noble
truthfulness, as she placed both her
bands in hie.
"And are you, my beautiful preserver,
prepared for the sacrifice which, indeed,
I fear it is doing a great wrong to ask
of you?"
"It will be no sacrifice on my part.
It is the only possible way to Save your-
self from an unsuetly-inflicted death, and
me from a fatal remorse."
"Alas, Laura! when I first met and
worshipped you—when I first dared to
dream of the poy of making you my own
—thin was not the sort of bridal J. pic-
tured to myself!" said Caseinove, with a
deep groan.
"No, my awn; you thought of con-

fell. This is 'what you planned for one.

"East Lynne" was in Oakley Monday

end of it, we set to Work in earnest. 'thy
friend began by photographing
