Should he list- len? Should he burden his _conscience iwith the'knowledge of a sin`? Was athere a sin? He remembered the eyes, the bright expressive glance, the open, sweet face.. He could not associate such. a face with sin, which, if it were -sin at all, was crime. He felt him- -self trembling. Then all of a sudden a great` temptation came over him. ,Suppose he made up his mind not to lbe mixed up in this matter. Suppose, instead of dining A at ' the Hall to- _night, he `pleaded a sudden excuse and `went back to London; He could ask, his old friend to visit him in London, or he could come some time when the Rands were not at home; Surely he had sorrows `enough on`-his shoulders without burdening himself with Mar- garet Rand and her possible transgres- sions. . She had come to him. in her extremity, hoping and believing that she would never, see him again. Why should he not carry out her own wish! 'l1V__.`IL-__ 1: Dare paced up and down-up and down.
