remonstrance nor cntrcatics could induce
her to see Harry lycrson or to read his
letters, and the poor fellow, more madly
in love than ever, and kcenly alive to
the sullcrings and hopes Of his singular
situation still fingered around the home
OF his llolizcd wife. His cruel position
kept him UIooC from society, and his sole

also because her sons lovc h0d deep
cncd into despair and affected hls
health.
At last Carrie consented to an inter-
view with her husband, Ns she under
stood THAT he and his mother would
return to Georgia the next morning.
She sent him word that she would meet
| him lone as She returned from one of
her suburban charities, hut that would
be the last time that they would ever
