dear Polly! with that brave mornings fine
array, she passed away from the old city
which had known her as q pretty child,
as many and many a girl had done before
her. to be henceforward little more to it
than a name-to he "a parsonage" viewed
by the general public through the some
what uncertain sheen of her mothers oily
descriptions. Poor Polly! She was not
the first nor yet the last pretty girl that
have seen married in Blankhampton in
the Same way, and, alasi fear there may
be many another to come.
It had Just struck the quarter before 12
when sho came, looking lovely it need
hardly be said, dressed in white from
head to foot, plain, simple and severe.
from the hem of her long gown to the
snowy tulle which half hid her golden
head, her only ornaments q cluster of
orange blossoms near her throat and an
enormous bouquet of delicate and rare
white blossoms in her hand.
And not o single one Of the superb
jewels we've heard so much about, wills
ucred one in the crowd to her neighbor.
oh, daro say they're like To-To's
grand marriage-all imagination was
tho reply.
6lt it was not so. The jewels were in
existence sure enough, but Polly had fiatly
refused to wear them on her wedding
morning. although her mother had coaxed
and persuaded, and the bridegroom had
been evidently much disappointed that
his brides world should not sec in what
honor he held her. Still Polly was oh.
drratc. Wear them she would not aud
did n0t-not even the beautiful string OF
pearls. which. as Mrs Antrobus plain.
lively said. would Just have made oil the
difference between her wedding and all
tho other weddings that took place ia
Blankhampton.
On this point To- To had stood her friend,
and had backed her up vigorously in her
resolve not to appear on her wedding
morning blazing with jewels.
You're perfectly right, Polly" she
said. with her own delightful little ma.
tronly uir. II always think it such exc.
CRADLE taste to wear jewels for o wedding,
simply execrablep and, would you believe
it, there were people among the relatives
and intimate friends of tho Antrobus
family i'll natured enough to say that the
young Mrs. Hcrrick Brentham did not
wish the difference between her wedding
gifts and her sisters to appear in toe
startling contrast; but, of course, that
only shows how inordinately i'll natured
people can be In this world, and particu
Iarly In Blankhampton.

CHAPTER XIV.


It must not be supposed that during
this time the police at Walmsbury were
idle. On the contrary, they were putting
forth their best efforts to find out some.
thing. or, for tho matter Of that. any.
thing about the mysterious case, SO as to
prove themselves better up in their work
than tho two Scotland Yard men, who were
employed in the interests of the Owen
family, and who, like their fellows at
Walmsbury, seemed to be at deadlock
pry as they would, It seemed impossible
to find out anything moro than had been
donc already.
They had both abandoned that clew
which seemed to point to Mr.. Beresford
Earle the finger Of suspicion had never
seemed to point at all.
A suggestion had been made that Rose
Mceking perhaps knew moro than any
one else about the matter; but that astute
young lady being forewarned was thus
forearmed, and, in spite Of the many and
extraordinary questions which were put
to her. contrived to throw them off the
scent completely, showing plainly that
she was neither to be frightened nol
trapped into admitting single word
more concerning the interview with Capt
Owen on the afternoon OF the murder
than she had admitted at the inquest.
In her way she had been true enough
both to her promise to the dead man and
TO young Tommy. She still saw the force
Of all that Owen had urged against mar
rage between her and the last of the
Earles; but, while she was flied with
horror at the way in which he had come
by his death, and every spark Of admi
ration for her gentleman sweetheart hat
died out. she was yet determined not t.
betray him into the hands of Justice. So
ont Of Rose Meeking, neither the Scotland
Yard detectives nor tho Walmsbury pc
licc got any information whatever.
So the bright summer days slippedUv
and the Earles. father and daughter. be-
gan to think about making q move &c
their country place, Earles Hope. And
scarcely were they settled there before
Beautiful Jim came-came without word
of warning-camc only for few hours
that he might take q passionate farewell
of her whom he loved best in all the
world. and three short words were enough
of explanation: Active seryice-Bur.
