The Romance Of st. C,r.

During the seventeen years confine.
ment of this strange prisoner al Sainte
Marguerite, ST. Mars, who brought him
10 the fortress, was replaced by Mon
sieur de BOnpart, as Governor. The
daughter Of the latter. Just emerging from
childhood 10 womanho0d, grew up with
this mystery around her. She had seen
the graceful figure Of the masked prisoner
promenading az night upon the terrace
and at worship I'm the chapel, where he
was forbidden 10 speak or uncover his
face, the soldiers In attendance having their
pieces always pointed towards him If he
should attempt TO do either. She discov-
cred that her father always treated him
with the greatest respect, serving him
bareheaded and standing. His table ser
vice was of massive silver. his dress Of the
richest velvet; he wore the finest linen
and most costly lace. She had heard her
father accidentally speak Of him a. THE
Prince" No wonder that his sad fate oc-
cuped her thoughts by day and his noble
figure haunted her dreams 10y night. She.
too. was very young and beautiful, and
their eyes occasionally met in chapel. lie
sang beautifully. and was v,ry slilltul
performer on the guitar. II j. said she
climbed the rocks under the castle terrace
