boat, almost before she was clear, the
ship sank slowly forward and went down
head foremost, carrying the captain, the
bride and about a dozen men to the bot
tom Of the sea.
AS the thrilling vibration of the mar
rator's voice ceased there was momen-
tary silence. Her excitement at the
picture conjured up by memory commu-
nicated itself to the listeners, and at first
no one seemed able to break the spell.
At last the colonel spoke:
''We are very glad to know that you
were saved by ocular demonstration,
Mrs. Odell; but how about that scoun-
drel and his companion in guilt; for she
was every bit as bad as he; were they
drowned? One could not help hoping so,
except for the sake of the innocent peo-
pie in the same boat"
NO" said Mrs. Odell quietly-every
trace of her agitation had passed away
now, and her tone was calm and mex
pressibly bitter. eve were picked up a
few hours after, having separated from
the others in the fog; but they were also
soon rescued by home bound vessel,
and carried back to England. There
this loving husband proved his wife's
death-there were plenty of witnesses,
though none had seen his brutal act, and
most believed, as afterward heard, that
she was left behind by mistake. He
then proved her will, which he had car
ried off the ship with him, and which
had been executed in Madeira within
month of her marriage, leaving him every
cent of her immense wealth. Her rela-
tives, understood, made an attempt to
upset the will, but without success, but
before she had been six months dead, he
bought an elegant villa near Florence,
and married the rescued governess. /

reason to believe he is living and pros

81 suppose you never saw his second
wife again" asked the niece, thought
fully.
EYES," said Mrs. Odell, slowly, 81 have
seen her-quite recently"
"Your story was really quite too inter
esting, Mrs. Odell," murmured pretty
Mrs. Mortimer, rising languidly from her
steamship chair. ''You quite made us
forget how late and cold it is getting.
Thanks, so much. Colonel, may I trouble
you for that shawl? ] think / will go
down now. Come along, Sybille. A de-
main, gentlemen. Mrs. Odell-good
night"

moved away; but eyes tell no tales, and
