| CHAPTER RXXXVIII.-IN HOTEL IMPERIAL.
Salome had found her sister at the Imperial
| Hotel at Andermatt. Janet was one of those
persons whose bodily condition varies with
| their spirits. When depressed she looked and
| indeed felt ill; when happy she looked and felt
| as if nothing were the matter with her. Janet
| had been greatly tried by the double shocks OF
| her husbands death and the discovery of her
| parentage. She had been taken into the secret
| because it could not be kept from her, when the
man Schofeld, alias Beaple Yeo, suddenly ar.
| rived at Mergatroyd, just after the flood and
| the disappearance of Jeremiah Pennycome-
| quick, at the time when she was sharing her
| mothers room instead of Salome.
| Mrs. ellsworth at that time was in great dis
| tress of mind at the loss of her master and
| friend; and when her brother-in-law, the father
| of the two girfs whom she had brought up as
| her own. Unexpectedly appeared and asked for
| money and clothing, she confided her difficulty
| to Janet. and between them they managed to
bribe him to depart and leave them in peace.
| Mrs. ellsworth had sacrificed large slice out
of her savings to secure his departure, and
trusted thereby to get rid of him forever.
When Janet returned to France she found
| everything in confusion; the factory at Elbeut
| was stopped, the men who had been employed
| in it had assumed arms against the Germans,
and were either shot, taken capttves, or dis
persed. Her sister.in-law was almost off her
head with excitement and alarm for her chill
| dren, three girls just out Of school. Prussian
| officers had been Quartered in her house, and
| had carried off some of her valuables, and ran
sacked the cellar for the best wines.
Janet had caught cold that night in the train
when it was delayed by the flood, on the way to
Mergatroyd, and 1t had settled on her chest,
| and left a cough that she could not shake off.
Anxiety and worry had told on her joyous dis
| position and deprived it of its elasticity. She
gave way to encouragement. Her husbands
