forgive your neglect Frederick. Go, and
may peace attend YOU"
These words were spoken with calm
ness so painful, that tears arose to the
young officers eyes, and nothing but
conscious innocence bore him up against
those sorrowful leproaches of the strlck-
en- girl.
Collins saw that excitement had al
most oyerpowered the weak nerves oil
the maiden, but peration to vindicate
himself chained him to the spot, and
urged him to speak in his own defence.
"FIorence. Florence, reproach me
not thus!" Frederick exclaimed pas.
sonateiy, dcspairing!y, sit was not vol
UNFAIRLY that / lett you, but in compII,
auce with your commands, | again re-
peat; and still preserve the terrible
edict that drove me so unceremoniousiv
from your presence, without a whisper
of hope to console Iife's weary pilgrim
age, as a memento 0! my misery" and
handing Florence the billet bearing her
signature, he had received ere his de-
parture from her uncle's mansion, he
stood silently regarding her with mel
anchoIy countenance while she ran her
eyes over its contents.
She read it-Crumplpd it convulsiyely
in Der thin, white hand, and raising heI
eyes to Freterick's, gasped, Il never
wrote it, and sank back insensible in
her chair. The excitement OF the hour,
that had with the perusaI OF the note,
reached its climax, was too powerful
for enf,ebed nature which sank into
insensibiIty in order again to revive
that weak and trembling frame.
Lieutenant Collins threw open win
dow and pouring some water on the
maiden's pale brow, soon had the salts
faction olseeing her eyes Enclosed and
animation again return.
"And was it tins cruel billet that ban
ished you from my presence so sum
mdrlly-Without even sad farewell
and ignorant of It's existence ~
