Grey cottage was some little distance from Heath and the numerous visits John paid there were not known John soon became popular i little village Everyone could that although he lodged at the Plough and did not seem with any great iperabundanco of money still he was a gentleman not only highbred and wedding day camo at length a bright clear warm morning the last breath of summer perfuming the air It was a very quiet wedding John Ron had arranged to take his pretty little Mrs Grey Mabel John There and myself in the one little that took to church On our way passed a carriage with four prancing and footman in a bril liant livery That belong to the Hall said Mrs Grey we passed it by To our great surprise quite a floral dis play await- child Hoy from looking I am staying for some 1 the neighbourhood ho said out the moat picturesque and beautiful spots in it I shall be puzzled for there appears to be an infinite variety Do not forget Lime Hall said Mabel it is without exception the you have seen or painted the gray gabled building bold relief under the blue sky The artists eyes followed the direction of that pretty white band and he stood for some momenta gazing in silence on the mansion upon the hilltop You should sketch it just as it is now said Mabel all deserted and de caying the thick grass growing in the Why so asked a having thus got rid his antagonist were Blind

with marked coolness and contempt To my surprise that seemed to embarrass confute him I thought he ought treated her with the utmost little surprise Mabel Greys engagement to the de known Her friends and had many 1 alt what did ihoy really of him who r able and charm But that all Mabel had a comfortable home and a nice little fortune What if after all he should prove to be a mere needy fortunehunter or an impostor what would become their pretty gentle Mabel then She listened sweetly and patiently all wise counsel and good advice He is noble and good she would ply I am sure of that not only from the instinct of my own love but had been otherwise by constant with him I should have discovered His only fault is poverty and that soon be corrected For you know she would continue her beautiful eyes you know my hun dred per annum will help us and he can study until he paints pictures that art worth thousands of pounds In her simplicity she never doubted his ability to do that and John would listen with a smile to her bright hopes for him and her pictures of his future fame and glory I do not mind being poor for many yeara John she would say I s nave you and the future will riches snd greatness also So Mabel happy in her first true love disregarded all the hints thrown No one said such bitter things as Brandon Strange girl as she wa hardly understood herself Though pleas- first Though she had envied her still she did not quite approve of her throw ing herself away upon that painter When in reply to her bitter scornful speeches Mabel would say she did nol care for money and would only marry love Kates wrath was something grand witness When all arguments founded proper pride position failed Kate commenced foolish Mabel UEquely All village mystery I I dare say Lady Emily ran away from the gloomy old place a her died conveniently that it should not be known Mabels quiet eyes flashed It is wicked to say such things Kate 1 she cried Jl was a little child when I saw Lady slide down the Castle Hill for the last time She stopped spoke to me She had a fair face I but a look in her eyes I never saw again would make me believe that gentle gracious lady had ever dono wrong Have it any way you will said Kate carelessly matter is not worth dis cussing only spare me any sublime heights about mysteries or pictures Mabel amiled and made some halfjest ing answer All this I paw the artists eyes fixed upon her face drinking her quiet beauty and grace ability him that ha bowed courteously to shade of tho great Kate Brandon cried Hester Bell John She would mercifully bringing her small power of sarcasm and irony to bear upon him But through all pretty Mabel had her own way and finally the wedding day was fixed for the bow of September and I was asked be bridesmaid It was to be a very quiet wedding John wished it so to take place early in the gray church tho Hill Mrs Grey was pleased with that A grand wedding or a Is party would have tried her financial abilities Just then our attention was taken from the allabsorbing topic of dent match by a rumour that Li was thrown open Those who for the gratification of their curiosity went found the

in an of madness she inflicted upon him a dangerous wound Although done to save him Stephen died in a few days and then Lady years after her husbands death The tragedy was never known except by those immediately concerned was hateful to the young heir He abroad half resolved never more to return But after an exile of ten years a great longing seized him to look once more upor own home He did not wish to be re cognised for above all things he dreaded lest his mothers story known and any allusion should be to it He resolved upon going to Heath in the of a wandering a sketched every place that was dear to him and would then have returned to the Con tinent if he had not fallen in love with Mabel Grey He loved her from thi of bis life He had felt little admiration for Kate but disliked her from the way in which she spoke of Lady Tresham He told me with tears in his eyes how he had loved Mabel for her generosity how nobly she had given her hundred a year to him while they waited for wealth and fame how he had gloried in the knowledge that the wife he loved him for bis own sake and not be cause be was master of Lime Hall wedding breakfast await then in the beautiful drawing room

bells or such happiness known to Heath The thing that pleased me most Kate Brandons face when she saw the my husband who having been called away on important business would be unable to return until the next day I went to the kitchen to rouse Maggy whom I found nodding over the fire afraid to go up stairs until I went Come Maggy I Im going to rheard a cautious footstep on the front Irish girl of
