Leigh had retired.
Lettice stole softly through the slrubbery,
down along the paths lined with fragrant rhodo-
dendrons, past the beds of hyacinths. and tulips
which she had helped tend and so on to the gate.
Here she paused II moment, and looked regret
fully back. 1t was home, and she leaving
it forever. The walls of the house had sheltered
her ever since she could remember, and within
she had received nothing but kindness. And
now she was stealing away like a thief in the
night. She knew that she was already sold, and
that the trader was coming the morrow to
take her away.
Nevertheless, her heart accused her of ingrat-

She came at last in sight of the river; the black
waters, gloomy and dark by the light of the fast
setting moon, swept steadily on, with sullen,
muffied sound.
Here was the great pine tree which overhung

She stopped timidly.
