They reached the street and entered the
carriage before William broke the amazed
silence into which he had been thrown.
Mr.. James asked his address, and the sound
of his voice aroused him he gave the num-
ber and they hurried away.
"Wbat does this mean P'' exclaimed
Sears. "Do you know Mrs. Grant and
your sudden arrival--you had not written
to me that you we're coming overp'
Have little patience, William, don't
overpower me with questions You shall
hear everything in its proper order; but
let us get safe to your rooms first"
When the carriage stopped, Sears sprang
out, and Mr.. James followed him up to his
apartment in silence. When they had en-
tered, William closed the door, and turned
hastily toward him. ft,.
"Don't torture me any longer could
almost think something terrible were COM
ing, only you always bring pleasant news, y
he added, striving to laugh, and thus shake
ofrthe nameless fear which had come over
him.

SST Sitpossible ?" Sears exclaimed, after
the first instant of surprise, and
going toward him with his hand extended.
Scan this be youP"
al believe So" he replied, returning his
greeting, but with his eyes fixed upon the
woman who seemed suddenly frozen to 81
lence. "I am sorry to have startled you
sorry that my appearance should have dis
turbed any one"
"Mrs. Grant" William said, turning
toward her, "this is my guardian and best
friend-Mr. James"
Mr.. James bowed low, but the smile on
his face seemed to wither everything on
which it fell. Catharine did not stir-she
was gazing forward in blank dismay
Sears looked from one to another in silent
questioning, lost in astonishment at the
singular scene.
William" Mr.. James whispered, "you
must go with me at once-do not hesitate
you have heavy stake in this" He took
up Sears hat and gently pushed him to-
ward the door. 81 am very sorry that
Mrs. Grant does not remember an old ac-
quaintance p
"Old acquaintance p' gasped William.
Catharine struggled to her feet-as of
old the indomitable pride swept across her
face.
"I remember you," she said, in dis
tinct, measured tone, al remember
you p
Hereafter shall hope to be allowed to
renew that acquaintance, he continued,
with the same smile. Oscars, am sorry,
but important business depends upon your
haste.
"One moment" exclaimed William, 81
will join you in an instant--go on"
81 fear l must be rude enough to insist
your presence is necessary, and the mo-
ments are precious--I am sure Mrs. Grant
will excuse you J"
She made no answer-she was looking
forward again with that dreary, expressions
less gaze.
"Mrs. Grant-C -Catharine p exclaimed
Sears but Mr. James laid firm hand
upon his arm.
"She will pardon your unceremonious
departure" he sai6, very quietly.
That voice made her shiver from head to
foot, as if chill blast had swept across the
spring air.
"Go," she said, ego William p |
81 shall see you again very soon, very
oonr r he repliedl
Mr.. James drew him away, while Catha-
rine sunk back in her seat, those white lips
murmuring still,
"Go, William--it is forever"
