The scandal kept from public knoT-
ltdre.
No difficulty presented itself 10
staIchirg under the old sun-dial. It
was NJ. Ribsult's custom every day
when be vas at home to start out on
bis stout Breton cob at . O'Clock, 10
order himself to see what had been
core by bis laboTers on the farm, and
10 assure himself that be was not being
oeirsuded Of a sous worth Of WORK.
Accordingly, as soon as the old man
vas fairly cut Of the court.y ard, Ar
thur, having procured spade from the
stable. walked slowly ard With beating

rous shoves, the moss-vorn column lag
CT tie ground. asd, having removed a
few spadoflls Of earth, ArthIr's eyes
we're net by The sight Of small tin
dttd-box.
Strange 10 say, be had been 50
thoroughly convinced Of the fact Of the
deeds teIrg under the dial that Arthur

On cIeuirg the box any lingering
doubt vas speedily removed. Before
I'm were most certainly the title deeds

hanCs. The steps Of ". Ribau','s
horseenterin 2 the courtyard reused
Arthur from the pleasant reyerie into
which be had fallen, and walking across
TO The cLsteau, be asked II he could be
granted q fev minutes conversation.
Certainly, 7 an a. yo1r service

Rihault moiioned Arthur into a chair.
IL may IS well begin by telling you

' Wait a little. " continued Arthur.
Your grandfather promised 10 keep
the chateau safe until affairs became
settled, ard thon restore il tony family.
This pledge Le basely failed 10 fulfil.
Here hio6ult half rose tom his chair,
VIII Tsge and confusion on lis face.
but percmytory gesture from Arthur
caused him 10 sink back into lis seat
again.
" Now justice is az hand, though her
