New DIRK, after unmeasured trial and
tribuiati IN! New Yorlz-practically for
the first time.
The tall buildings of lower Broadway,
with their fantastic sky lines, suggested
again his Barranca of Cimarron. He
recognized almost at once the gilded let
tiers that spelled out the name of the
bank of which his father had been presi-
dent and which had been the principal
scene Of the disgrace. Who that did not
know could have conceived any cOnnec-
ton between this edifce amid the thick
hustle of the great thoroughfare of the
metropolis, with its ornate facade, its
polished mahogany and plate glass and
its affable officials behind the counters,
who had done business ever since, no
doubt, upon strictly honest principles,
and the dark, half ruined house at Ro-
sales where his youth had been passed?
His father had kept none Of the EN-
bezzled funds for himself, it is true, but
this, though often weakly urged by some
as a palliation, was none to Walter. Els
rigid ideas of IDEAS Of integrity told him
that the money had gone in reckless
speculations, of which others had had to
take all the risks Walter had first seen
the name of the bank On some random
old check blank at ROsales, found in Il
worm eaten cabinet that might almost
have come down from the time of the
food. A slight memorandum, retained
from among his fathers papers, had
long been his constant companion. It
had served as q sort Of fetch and stimu-
lus, too, in his labors, and now furnished
an Indication where to begin his work Of
restitution. He secured eminent cOJ3n-
sci, and the survivors and heirs of sur
vivors of 1.-The Great Ridgefield Defalca-
ton" Of years long gone by soon began
to hear of legal measures and to receive
queries that set many hearts beating
with hope and pleasure.
Walters wound in the shoulder had
been aggravated by the voyage, but he
allowed neither this suffering nor any
other diversion to draw him away from
his main object till every necessary step
had been taken. The gold was conveyed
from the hold of the schooner to the
United States Assay Office. The rude
smelling it had received would not do for
it's final state, and it had to be subjected
anew to treatment. Pending this, how
ever, certificates to large amount of
it's value were issued, which could be
used in the negotiations. AT length
when every possible preliminary had
been attended to, then, and then only,
he succumbed to illness beyond his
strength to resist. He would have had
himself taken to a hospital, but the head
of the law firm to which he had COM
mitted his affairs would by no means
listen to this. He was impressed with
admiration by a magnanimity far beyond
that met with in the ordinary range of
nractica and conveyed him to his own
