has been feud. arising out OF political
differences, between the elder members
Of the families. The Zolas are conser-

ward and Adelina; however, have long
been lovers and privately engaged them
selves TO be married. The engagement
was discovered and was followed by
the requisite anger on the part Of the
heads Of both houses.
A marriage between two such Ami-
lies could not be thought Of, aud every
thing was done to keep the young peo-
pie apart and break of the engagement.
But that was all nonsense. They met
secretly and became daily more and
