THE DEAD HAND.

eH From the first day of my temporary So
elS.journ at IA Transome Terrace, Westvillc-
|faby-Sca, became aware that some one
Twas i'll next door. The weather was SO
X apersistently wet that was compelled to
remain within, and, being alone, | natur-
uss ally spent much of my time at the Win
low, wondering whether it ever would
q q a3e fine enough for outdoor sketching.
als Thus it was that the frequent visits to 13
N%t%snI an unmistakablc doctor, in an unmis-
s 50 akable doctors brougham attracted my
, sAttention. Two, and even three times a
here lay he came, and on his departure | al
ss.gvays noticed that look of grave, pro
NJ essional anxiety which, on doctors
! asace, bodies i'll for the patient.
II ss Sometimes the medical man was ac-
ssale ompanied to his carriage by gentleman
IlS,sslh0 appeared to be questioning him with
undsy angular earnestness Bareheaded, and
lind .agardless of the never-ceasing rain, the
las ptter would stand at the door of the
~fougham, seemingly loath to let the
:. octor go without some final inStruc-
w Ons, or, perchance, some ray of hope.
|SVhe anxious inquirer was tall, with mar
WI w, STOPPING shoulders, but all that |
% mld see Of his features as he hurried
r ick into the house was that he was about
III irty years Of age, with no hair on his
11V{ce, which was very pale.
|N}i With curiosity born of enforced idle

,SIhtter at No. IL, but all she could tell
WINE was that the house next door was
