"Have the goodness to lesye my

her feet. al do not know you nor the
name by which you have addressed me-"
"You have been ma! long enough"
sternly exclaimed her visitor, sitting
down. "Try to come back to your
senses. l shall not go till l have ex-
planned. A few words v i'll do it. Your
husband and I, instead of being what
you thought, were trying to keep a
great misfortune from you, or, ii that
could not be done, to break it to you
carefully"
There was an air of truth about the
speaker that staggered Lydia. She sank
nerveless into chair.

to exculpate ourselves" said Mrs. Dor
chester. "Your father got into diff
culties, forged my husbands name to a
large amount, and was on the point of
exposure when Mr.. Dorchester died.
The affairs then came into my hands to
settle"
Lydia sat leaning both elbows on the
table before her, her face supported on
her hands, listening and looking as if at
her doomster.

but it would have sent him TO die in

They were less than half an hour on
the way. They reached the mansion, .
handsome dwelling, half town-house,
half villa, with long garden attached.
They mounted the steps and Dorcas rang
the bell.
you ask" she heard her mistress
whisper.
She caught sight of her ia e. 1t was
lined and scanned with pain; the dark
eyes fairly strained and dilated with
suspense.
Ills Mr.. Leonard Drake in?" Dorcas
asked.
"No; he is in New York. Mrs. Drake
is at home"
Instinctively Dorcas reached out her
arm TO support Lydia as she asked.
"Who is that-his mother?"
"No; his wife. Do you want to see
her?" asked the servant rather CURLY,
beginning to think them people in
search of charity and not liking to en-
counter the cold air.
"No," Dorcas said. "How long has
he been married?"
"About six months"
A low, choked whisper from her COM
panion reached Dorcas. 1t said, "Come
away! Quick! Comet"
DOrcas turned without word and
supported her mistress down the steps.
Lydia did not speak. DOrcas could
not She put her arm about her mis-
tress and drew her on as fast as she
could. The house stood in q plot Of
ground by itself. They turned the cor
ner, where the garden led down side
street.
"Wait!" said Lydia, suddenly. az
can't go any further; let me rest lit
tie. Only don't speak to me-don't say
a word -
They sat down on the jutting line of
stone that supported the iron fence,
Dorcas half sustaining her mistress,
who crouched forward, hiding her face
with one hand. Dorcas bent over to
see the FACET was distorted by an
guish.
"Mistress, dear!" she sobbed, SON
ly speak-oaly--"
"Hush!" muttered Lydia. "Come
away; can walk now. Let me alone;
don't talk yet. Help me up; 1 can
walk"
Dorcas was assisting her to rise, when
q gentleman turned into the street lit
tie way down and walked rapidly to-
wards them.
Mufficd though he was in his great
coat, Dorcas knew him and uttered 8
cry of terror.
I" It's his STEP" whispered Lydia.
"Sit down-he'll not know us! l
promised never to trouble him! must
keep nv word. Don't look up, Dorcas.
Sit down, say!"
The very act attracted the attention
of the gentleman. He halted in front
of them, saying, "Why do you sit here
in this storm?'
Neither answered. Dorcas felt
Lydia's hand press her arm like hand
OF stone.
"Can't either Of you speak?" he con-
tinued, rather impatiently. "This is
not weather for two women to be sitting
out of DOORS"
she could pull Dorcas away, and run
from him, seized Lydia. She attempt
ed it. The hood fell from her face. He
knew her, and cried, "Lydia, Lydia!"
She felt that she was fainting; that
he had caught her in his arms; then an
awful blackness closed over her.
When consciousness came back she
thought at first she must be dead; then
she knew that she was in warm, bright
room. She saw Dorcas, q young, pref
ty lady near the bed, then Leonard,
and shrieked aloud.
She was held fast in his arms again;
his voice sounded close to her ear.
Lie still, darling; it's all clear. My
cousins house my cousins wife.
Don't you remember that I told you I
had cousin with the same Christian
name as MYSELF"
