HARRY MccALLEY's STORY.
CHAPTER ".
"A very lovely name, but not lovely as the
bearer. And do you live far from here?"
About half mile. But, as it is growing quite
late, must be returning Leoine said, placing her
hat which she held in her hand, on her head.
Allow me to accompany you to the end OF the
wood, as that viii be on my route.n
At the edge Of the wood they parted. And Leo
line, walking alone, felt her face burn at the
thought OF the dark-eyed stranger and his hatter-
ing remarks
"What a romantic day this has been for me?"
said Leoline TO herself " wonder what Mr.. For
roster would say if he knew all. No doubt he
would eailme very frivolous But, then, ne cannot
expect everyone to be so particular as he Besides,
Mr.. Winters just suits my taste"
The Summer was drawing to close. To-mor-
row Leoline was to accompany Mr.. Winters TO the
city. He had gained hera position companion
to his aunt, Mrs Seaford
Mrs Seaiord was childless widow; Harry VIM
tiers was the son of her only brother. lie had lived
with her since the death Of his parents, who died
the same year, when Harry was but i've years DID,
his aunt was very fond OF him, and gave MIN great
advantages. He was always much sought after by
the opposite sex; hence he became what you might
call iirt He had often heard his aunt express
the desire that she could get some girl that would
suit her for companion, and at the same time I'LL
the place of daughter.
She had tried several, but never found one that
suited her. Harry had written her of Leoline, and
was looking for.
Therefore Ieoline one day received letter from
Mrs. Seaford, offering her the position OF COM
panion. She urged her to come and remain awhile
at least.
Leoline had hard work to gain the consent of her
idolizing parents But after great deal of coax
ing. they were finally persuaded to let her go for
year. And on this the last day of Leone's stay at
her Old home, she was seated IN low chair near
the window. watching Harry Winters slowly wend
his way toward the house.
He did not at FIRST observe her, but his attention
was directed that way by slight cough from
Leoline, which she could not suppress.
Come. Leoinei" he called out; LETS take
walk down to old trysting-place. You know
it viii be the last time we will have that oppoTtu-
nifty for a long time"
