1--WE will see," the colonel said, and
sighed. He had not the heart to remind
her that there was no certainty that
Nicholas still lived.
"Well! well!" said old Gilbert, with q
subdued chuckle, as he slipped down
from his perch on the box. "Ef amt
been 'stonished outen my manners at
gittin' homel How is Missle-virey, tubbe
sho?"
''She is well, and she will be so glad to
see you," said Missy. "Come to the
house and you shall have Christmas
dinner. After all, this is not such a sor-
rowful Christmas day."
Yet she wiped away the tears as she
went.
Old Gilbert's appearance. at the ''gret
house" created hubbub of excitement
that penetrated to the room where John
Fletcher sat in moody meditation. Five
weeks had he been a guest at Thorne
Hill, and his immovable resolve was
taken; he would go on the morrow; he
would run any risk rather than remain
longer under this roof. now that he knew
the fate that threatened him.
But on the morrow John Fletcher was
again an invalid. He had contracted
chill from exposure to the night air, and
for some days following he was serious
ly i'll; but though the colonels courtesy
never tagged, and Miss Elvira was
prompt with kind attentions, his i'm
patience to be gone increased with his
illness.
Col. Thorne perceived this state of
mind with extreme annoyance. He had
accepted this northerner as he might
have accepted decree of fate, but he
never forgot that Capt. Fletcher was his
guest, and he would fain have had him
feel at ease.
1T is dull house, dull house." he
repeated, with a deep sigh, as he sat be-
side the sick mans bed one morning. He
looked strangely worn and haggard. Ill
though he was, John Fletcher noted the
change wrought in Missy's father since
old Gilbert's return. His dignified self
possession seemed to have deserted him,
and he talked with an absent air, as if
thinking aloud "Young people require
:gayety," he said. "My daughter must
go away for few days; she dwells too
much upon her brother" Then, with an
instant and naughty change of manner,
as though he repented the momentary
weakness, he interrupted himself: "But,
sir, I disturb you, and DR.. Lane advises
perfect quiet"
The colonel had spent an hour in the
sickroom that morning, but of all that he
had said John Fletcher understood only
this. that Missy was going away; that he
should see her no,more. His reason, his
pride. his sense of ''the eternal fitness of
things" assured him that this was best;
but more than ever did he now desire to
leave Thorne Hill.
The times., 1891-04-10

But not long did he remain there. He
rose and began gathering his belongings
together with feverish haste. 81 will
depart tomorrow he declared, fierce
ly. "It shall not befall me to see her
again.
And as he said this he looked out of
the window and saw the carriage wait
ing, and Winifred Thorne going down
the steps of the piazza, attended by a
handsome young fellow, who looked at
her with admiring eyes. Winifred was
radiant with delight. John Fletcher
could hardly realize that this was the
same girl he had left down stairs not
half an hour agone.
ga boyr he exclaimed, in fierce con-
tempt. ''Oh, fool! Oh, foolv'
When he came away from the window
he saw Glory-Ann standing in the door
way with cup of beef tea, diet he
abominated.
"Ah, that's right!' he exclaimed, with
bitter gayety, as he quatfed the cup that
neithea pheered nor inebriated. Build
up my strength within the next twenty
four hours, Nom Bee. must get away
from here tomorrow.
"You look lax hit" said Glory-Ann,
secretly pleased to hear him call her
eMom Bee.' (But he had done SO un-
wittingly.) "Better not be too brash.
You gwan overstrain yo'se'f."
"Who is that young sprig saw just
now dancing attendance upon your young
lady?" he asked, with assumed careless
ness, as he set down the cup.
"Dat's Mawse Paul Herry," Glory-Ann
made answer. "Hes got lieyer's shop
in Savannah; but he's come home to see
his kin, long O Miss Lottie's weddin'-

ders-from Missy herself"
John Fletcher felt the blood rush to
his face, though he put no faith in Glory
AIMS garrulity. He found himself her
thrall, however, for his strength would
scarce admit of any exertion; and in
deed, when he grew calmer, he was con-
tent to wait, feeling that it would be an
ungracious act to steal away in the alb
sence of the family.

wINIFRED AND nER FATHER.

Winifred remained in Tallahassee some
days after her father and her aunt re-
turned to Thorne Hill, and when she
came home again Capt. Fletcher had
taken his departure. She said, with
more vehemence than seemed necessary,
that she was very glad, although she
presently asked the colonel, with some
anxiety:
Father, hope you weren't rude to
Capt. Fletcher, that he went so sudden
ly? He is Aunt Winifred's friend, you
know"
"Wherefore should be rude to my
guest?" said the colonel, in tone of cold
surprise. ''But don't deny that his
presence was a constraint."
eyes," says Winifred, wearily. "Now
we can turn all our thoughts to Brer
Nicholas. You know we must find him. {"
The colonel frowned. "It is hope
less undertaking." he said.
"We might advertiser Winifred sug-
gested, eagerly.
"Advertise?" repeated the colonel, re-
coiling. ''Drag our family history into
the public prints? Don't think of such a
step for q moment"
"What does it matter, SO we find him?"
Winifred faltered.
"It is not to be thought Of" the col
onel reiterated, sternly. "Besides," he
added, after moments pause and with
stifled sigh, "it would avail nothing.
Nicholas knows where to find us. You
don't reflect that he has q wife, and his
wife has her influence, of course"
Winifred turned very pale. "Do you
think that Dosia?"- she stammered; but
she was unable to finish the question.
Nicholas does not wish to be found;
of that have long been convinced" said
the colonel, coldly.
Winifred made no reply. A great Bit
terness filled her heart and abided there.
She spoke no more Of Nicholas, for she
no longer hoped to find him; and in
abandoning that hope she seemed to
have abandoned all interest in life.
The colonel was distressed beyond
measure. He still held to the theory
that because she was young she must
crave gayety; and, willing to make any
sacrifice for her sake, he said to her one
day:
"Winifred, would you like to live in
town; to give up Thorne Hill and go to
Tallahassee?
"Oh, no! no" said Winifred, shrinking
as from blow. IT want to live and die
at Thorne Hill; it is home"
'But times are so changed, Winifred,
and If you no longer find it a happy
home"-
She turned quickly and looked at her
father, and it was as if the scales had
fallen from her eyes. She saw him old
and careworn and lonely, and all at once
the filial love that had so long been held
in allegiance leaped into life.
my father! My father!'s she cried,
with outstretched arms. ''You must let
me love you'll Since we cannot reach my

But caresses and endearments were
not in the coloners way; how deeply he
was moved he found no words to tell; he
could only put his arms around his child,
and Missy felt some burning tears drop
upon her hair.
''It is because / am SO little," she whis-
pered, with a pathetic attempt at playful
ness. Sand / haven't been a very good

The colonelwas hurt. 81 have never

"No; it is that have SO long shut my
self outr' Winifred declared, with the
generosity of an affectionate nature.
"But that is over, and life is lovely still"
Her voice shook little, and she brushed
away the tears that would rise.
The blessedness of love is rather in
loving than In being loved; and from this
day Winifred was happy beyond words
in lavishing upon her father all those
fond attentions she had been wont, as a
child, to bestow upon her brother. The
colonel could not suddenly change his
nature; he was shy of giving caresses, of
uttering terms of endearment; but he
submitted to his daughters demonstra-
tions, and she was content.
Miss Elyira wasgreatly puzzled at this
new order of things. 81 don't know what

she complained. "Your father isn't used
to all that fussing. Aren't you afraid
you will annoy him?" But Winifred only
laughed, and Miss Elvira sighed and
turned page of Bishop Ken. She found
it hard to understand Missy.
Glory-Ann likewise found it hard to
understand Missy. swell, WE'LL" she

Old Gilbert, too, had his views on the
subject, though he did not deliver them
quite so plainly. The old man was now
comfortably settled in his rehabilitated
cabin, with his ground well plowed
and his hen house stocked, yet he was
not altogether content; not that he lack
ed anything for which he could express
a wish-'but hit wuzn't lax de ole

1t was the middle of January when
John Fletcher came down stairs again,
to find the house wearing strangely ST.

evening before to be absent for several
