CHAPTER XXXIY.

On the day previous to the visit Of
Lena and Bertha to Mrs. Lemont, st.
Lawrence received a note from Mr..
Riggs soon after Lord Alphington left
him, which in some degree lightened
his anxiety. 1t assured him that all
would be divulged in time to stop the
marriage, 80 that premature disclos-
ure would be unnecessary.
Time however went on, and as the
hours passed St. Lawrence's anxiety
returned in full force. At last, between
ten and eleven o'clock, violent ring
came at the household, and Mr.. Riggs,
almost tumbling upstairs in his hurry,
rushed into the room.
ITS all right" he exclaimed. We've
got him!"
"You havep" St. Lawrence exclaimed,
starting up. you are sure? l don't
think could bear suspense now" he
added, with q great gasp.
Mr.. Riggs took off his hat and pol
ished his head.
"Egad," he cried, what relief it Is
to get quit Of that COMPOUNDED vigil
SureY" he went on. II tell you we've
nailed him! The capture was splendid
ly made! BY George, sir, 1t has been
one Of the finest pieces Of business I
was ever engaged in. Give me some
thing to drink your health. Mr.. Fan
court, and then l am off again"
St. Lawrence brought out a bottle
from the chiffonier, and mixed stiff
glass Of spirits and water. Mr. Riggs
drank it standing.
Your health, SIR he said. land
many long and happy days.'' and before
st. Lawrence had time to reply the de-
tective was of again.
Thank Heaven." exclaimed st. Law
renee, fervently.
About three o'clock In the afternoon
st. Lawrence received a message from
Lord Alphington, desiring his immedi-
ate presence in Magnus Square; and
then, at last, he felt himself quite Sc
| cure.
Lord Alphington received him in the
library, where hung the portrait Of
Eustace Fancourt, his father. When
the door closed upon him, Lord Alph-
