CHAPTER VII.

While Mrs. Tregarthen was affecting
herself with unnecessary miseries, her
husband was suffering from griefs less
easily to be avoided. The copy-books
say that =" Innocence is bold" and it is
one of the conventional arguments
against a Suspect that he runs away.
As matter of course, the running
away is merely an indication of char
aeter, and has nothing to do with guilt
or innocence. The shrug of surprised
pity at the benighted accuser, the
placid mien of assured innocence,
the martyrs resignation and the saints
forgiveness are things familiar in our
courts of justice, and are DISPLAYED
there, never by the innocent, but daily
by the branded rascals who use them
as a part Of stock in trade. But it
takes much experience to kill phrase,
and Innocence is (stilD bold'' in the
copy-books and the apprehension of
the unworldly.
Mrs. Tregarthen's fight, her foolish,
innocent letter and her continued ST.
lence were enough to prejudice the
most trusting of men against her. The
real motive of her flight was absurdly
inadequate to anybody who could sur
vey the case dispassionately. To Ire
garthen its inadequacy seemed exag-
gerated, because he, better than any
outsider could have known it, knew
his own readiness to forget and for
give the small deceit of which his wife
had been guilty-if that were ALL The
agonized letter, with its talk about
guilty deceit and unknown past"
seemed to point to more than the wick
edness of month or two upon the
stage, and when week after week
dragged by and brought no news from
the runaway, Tregarthen's first sus-
picions and fears were, bit by bit, con-
firmed, until they settled into dreadful
certainty.
He dismissed and paid the architect
and the builder, and brought the works
at Tregarthen to a close. Blocks of
stone, rough or trimmed, balks of tim

Miss Farmers fortune lay at interest,
therefore, and remained unclaimed.
The clustering spring was back
again, and March was wilder than 1t
had been for many year. For three
days one tremendous gale blew from
the west, and, gathering strength in
the great ocean spaces, poured such a
tide upon the coast as had scarcely
been matched within the memory Of
living men. Storms of sleet and rain
swept over the island, and communioa.
ton with the mainland was impossible.
1t pleased Tregarthen to be thus shut
out from the world, and the savage iso.
latlon the tempest brought him was in
rare consonance with his mood. The
milder aspects of nature had ceased to
attract him, but this mad minglinv of
the elements drew him continuously
abroad, and he spent hours upon the
western rocks when he could haNlly
stand againt the wind, and could not
look to windward for an instant.
On the last night of this prolonged
tempest the Atlantic rollers fell with
such force and volume that they cast
stones as large as mans head forty
or fifty yards inland. The east was as
black as ink already, and the west was
a gruesome gray when Tregarthen
