The name Dorothy toriehed her heart as no other contd. It was the name of her eldest sister, who died broken-heert- ed over her daughter Dorothy. It Was a sad, sad story aid few persons knew The three ladies surveyed Dorothy as &mit, as possible and exchanged glances. They were almost unnerved. It was a quaint old room this drawing -room with its great sombre hangings and heavy furniture of an age gone—it Was WO some old pietures whose colorings had been enriched by time. To one side there was 'mother ehair with its foot- stool in front; it told a tale of sorrow as it sat there unoccupied. Everything around held a peculiar fascination for Dorothy. Mystery surrounded every- thing as a veil. To Dorothy it became a strange fascination—it charmed and held her spellbound, Lady Agatha could think of nothing save the strange resemblance of this young etranger to her own family. Then, too, the name, so quaint and old, seemed In some peculiar -way to make her heart ache. She touehed the bell aa she pelts eii, "Would you like tosee our picture gallery? There are some fine old pictures far1011g them." Dorothy thanked her, for nothing pleased her so much as the old work of ages past. The footman entered, and. si- lently waited to be addressed, "Light the candles in the gallery," said Lady Agatha, and soon they enter- ed a long room that would have been a delight in itself. Its old wane were covered. There were pictures that were of immense value; some that would have brought their weight in gold, almost. Dorothy gazed, spellbound. She was en- tranced. This was like a visit to Fairy- land • She stood before one. A. young girl with great blue eyes and sunny hair. A girl in the morning of womanhood. On her white bare arm there was a bracelet of peculiar workmanship. It attracted Dorothy. It seemed to hold her atten- tion, It was a golden serpent with great emerald eye. Ito forked tongue had protruded front its mouth as if about to strike its foe. "What are you dreaming of?" asked Lady Agatha, tenderely. The tone re- stored her to consciousness, Immediately. "I was thinking where I could have seen that bracelet, for I am sure I have seen it somewhere. It seems a dream to me now," answered Dorothy. "That picture is of my ester Dorothy in her girlhood. The bracelet was here There Was a soft low whisper as she uttered the name Dorothy. Her tones were full of love and tendernete "And Dorothy is dead?" asked Doro- thy, in low tones. "Yea, dead, and her Dorothy too. It is a eaered old name to ue. We love the old name even." There wits a moisture in her eyes and a pathos in her voice. Dorothy turned away and followed them into the draw- ing -room as dinner was announeed. Lady Agatha led the way, followed by Doro- thy. It wee a magnificent old, room, whose wainscoting was black with great age. The old table was elegantly served, but the meal was cold, proud and formal. When it wan ended, they repaired to the drawing -room, when eeffee was always served.. There wae an. old piano in the room. Dorothy gazed lovingly at it. "You play, do you. nott" asked Lady Agatha. Dorothy's eye had searehed out a quaint old guitar that lay in one corner of the roam. Around it wee tied a faded, old blue ribbon. "May I see this?" asked Dorothy, touching the old instrument. Lady Agatha assentets, and Dorothy took up the old instrument, tenderly wourfd the old blue ribbon about her fair neck and touched. the stringa. She seated herself on a low etool and began an old aong. Her voice was clear and ringing and beautiful. She played on to the end of the song, and when she had finished there were tears in every eye. The three ladiee recovered themselves, soon. The song she had sung had. touch- ed their hearts too deeely to mentioned then. After a short time Lady Agatha said, "You sing beautifully, my child." "I ant happy to have pleased you," said Dorothy. "Are you nearly related to the Dun - reverie?" asked Lady Priscilla, "I am not related to them at sun," au- awered Dorothy, eonfueedly. Lady Aveira saw the evident eonfu- sion. "We were sure you were, when we heard you were mistress of Dun - raven." "I only knew the eau end his daugh- ter. They were the deerest frieuds ever lied. Dnuraven was left me by the earl and hie daughter." There was a, mountain of sadness in Dorothy's toilet. "Have you relatives?" flaked Lady Agatha. "Not one on earth, that I know of," Answered Dorothy. "Poor lonely ohildt" exelaimed Ledy Agatha, tenderly, in an undertone. "It ie a eource of great sorrow to me to be obliged to tell you that I never knew a tie of kindred. 1 was eeered by ono Dame Wynter, and all my child- hood supposed, elle was related to me, but just before she died he told me she was no kith nor kin of mine.

It has been said she came In the night with her golden ho.ir , flying about her face and that she cried and .f4ked her lover to marry her. The landlady of tho Inn told that they did not hear any more of Dorothy for a short time and she told than little or nothing about her marriage or the name of the man she had married. She went to Cliff Towers onee, but the door was closed on her, and she went away from there never to return. it le said she wrote them afterwards that she had married, the man she loved, and that he was of noble birth, etc., but elle was deed to all at Cliff Towers, for they never had the least proef that she hail married, and they refused to believe it, and Sir Alexander Mareh upbraided them mott severely, and altogether It was a 'dreadful state of affaire. It was said that Dorothy's husband, whoever he was, left tier to go'to India, aria he took that terrible fever, and lay nigh unto death for many months, and wheu he came back, if ever he did, for no one knows to this day, he must have found Dorothy dead, for she died shortly af- ter the birth of her girl child, and they buried her body in the Cliff Towers' vaults with their other dead. .1 ease not understand why they did not do mare in life, and not wait until death claim- ed her, but they did this, and may tied forgive them for it alli The woman nurse kept the baby for a time, until the Cliff Towers' people decided to take it, and. when they asked for it, the woxnan fetid it was dead, and showed them the spot where it ley bur- ied In the churchyard.
