| AS on the previous morning, Mr.. Peven-
| Sey was awakened by sunbeam streaming
on his face; but instead of sitting through
| the rich curtains of his own apartments as
| it did then, it slanted between the rusty bars
| of an ordinary cell. He surveyed the sur
| roundings with even more wonder than he
did before, and as he realized where he was
and caught the offensive odor of stale beer
which pervaded the atmosphere of the cell
| he began to be indignant. Then the truth
began to dawn on his mind and the episode
| with his old friend Pembroke required to
him like nightmare, while his confused
| recollection Of seeing Miss Emory some

| her, did not add to the pleasure of his
thoughts. However, there was nothing to
do but wait for the jailer to come to him.
| Nine o'clock came at last. and, humiliating
as it was, he had to go through the regular
form of examinations; and when at last he
| was set at liberty--having paid his fine and
listened impatiently to the sage counsel of
the magistrate-he turned his steps toward
his residence once more, Illuminating on the
way with frowning brows. He applied his
key and entered as usual. The first thing
that attracted his notice was delicately-
tinted, perfumed note lying on the table,
He flushed slightly, picked it up, and read
the following;
Mr.. PEvENsEY: After what occurred
last night you can hardly expectme to re-

| therefore release youfrom all claims 1
may have had upon you, and wish you to
regard me hereafter merely as your friend.
