sworn testimony Of the man sgers and

her to her father, me prayed, tear
ing off his tunic as he ran up the
bank. miss fairfield! Marie!
Marie! my darling, where are youp
Oh, heaven, she has disappeared"
AS he stood staring wildly, and
almost madly, into the dark,
troubled waters, he saw Marie's
white, upturned face for moment,
and, plunging in, dived as if his
frame was composed of lead. He
caught at the trailing hair, and
struck for the surface, and made
for the bank with his precious
burden. He clutched at an over
hanging branch, and it broke off
short in his hand; he grappled with
the grass, and dug his fingers into
the treacherous earth, as he en-
deavored to gain a foothold; but
the current swept his feet from
under him; and he had the greatest
difficulty in keeping Marie's head
above water.
That she was conscious Egerton
knew, for her eyes were fixed upon
him, but she did not move or strug-
gle; and even at that supreme NOM
ent, when both their lives lowered
between life and death, the gallant
rescuer could not help wondering at
her self-control.
Despite his efforts, he and Marie
were being borne towards the edge
OF the weir. Egerton shouted for
help with all the power his lungs
could command. A strong arm
protruded through the rushes, and
Egerton caught Captain Harfeld's
hand.
Marie was done from her room
again. The shock had been great,
but youth and nature were on her
side, and she recovered quickly.
The paleness of her face seemed to
add to her beauty, and SO thought
Egerton Harrington as he leaned
over her.
Marie he said, "since that we
have been 50 near death, let us live
in each others heart so long as life
lasts. | come to you to confess
my love. Look at me, my darling
speak to mel"
"What would you have NE sayp"
she faltered.
81 would have you say, that will
try to love you
IL cannot! | cannot! she replied.
"How can | say that | will try to
love you, when | love you
so dearly now? Oh, Eyer
ton, loved you before you so nobly
saved my life. As you supported
my poor weak self in the water,
looked at you, never speaking or
moving, because | loved the life
you risked better than my own! |

missed my dear father that | would
not leave him while he lives, nor
will |. This shall be our home,
Egerton; yes, this house into which
you entered almost as IA stranger!
Papa has said 50 himself. Eyer
ton, dear, do not kiss me so, papa is
coming"
Captain fairfield was already in
| the room.
Don't mind an old fogie like
me-" he said. :, $50, Egerton, you
are caught at last, eh?"
swell caughtw laughed Marie;
''Egerton lost the trout to catch
vixen"
"If | were not your father" said
the captain, as he pressed Egerton's
hands, 81 should almost believe
that you dropped purposely over
the weir. What does Egerton sayp"
"That | would forgive Marie
with all my heart, providing that
she promised never to repeat the
experiment"
