Her hair fell loosely from her hat, one soft
curly lock almost touched him. He took it in
his fingers. Since his mother died he had
never touched a woman's hair. Sarah
turned at the movement, and their eyes met.
"Miss Clevedon-" dropping the hair, and
stepping back, his fingers nervously raised TO
his chin-"surely you understand? You
know that l."
The gate at the moment clicked behind
him, and quick step sounded on the gravel.
A man, bloated with drink, the fumes of the
last glass strong about him, stood before
them.
"Are you the Reverend Nicholas Har-
bour?'
1t was his brother John.
Nicholas did not speak.
The poor wretch, looking at Sarah, took off
his rag of cap, with grace which Mr..
Harbour never possessed.
81 beg your pardon, Madame, but my bus
mess is pressing. shall detain Mr.. Harbour
waiting at little distance.
Sarah looked after him eagerly with a
great sympathy and pity in her face. 'sIt is
some poor creature from the almshouse," she
said; "lf he needs food, or any help that can
give, bring him to the house."
Mr.. Harbour bowed stiffiy without word,
and crossed the lawn to the trees where his
brother waited. When he had reached him
he caught his arm without speaking, and
dragged him after him out of the grounds.
When he loosed his hold, John staggered
weakly and caught by the fence.
80! you have followed mew The clergy
mans lips were parched; they moved when
he was done speaking.
you had better spit out the oaths, Nick"
said his brother, laughing; 81 won't think
any the less of you for swearing under the
circumstances" He leaned his elbow on the
fence rail, steadied himself, and looked un.
easily up and down the dusty road, not meet
ing his brothers eye. He had made miser-
able effort to dress himself for the occasion.
The clothes he wore were an evening suit in
rags, and patched at elbows and knees new
paper collar showed at his neck; there was a
bit of gold lace on the filthy cap, for John
Harbour had once been an officer in the reg
ular.service. Under the cap was the lean,
pimpled face, freshly shaved. This hint of
preparation raised Mr.. Harbour's fury to
white heat. 1t was an effort to approach
Sarah as an equal. he drew back, elevated
MS thin body, oddly conscious OF his own
spOtless linen, and of the coat which was the
badge of his calling, as we'll as of his virtue
compared with this outcast The sense of
his posltlon was strong upon him. A vague
remembrance OF Ithuriel standing before the
evil one crossed his mind hazy.
what is your business ?" he asked, per-
emptoriy.
Captain Harbour's eyes twinkled. "My
business? Loafing and liquor, principally.
since was kicked out of the army. NV
errand here is"
Begging. You need not explain.-I sent
you a che4ue to New York not month
