The rivalry between Hamilton and
Lockwood was beginning to excite inter-
est. If she could, Miss Forrest saw
them separately; but when it was I'M
avoidable that she should see them at the
same time, she kept them on tolerably
good terms. 1t was great convenience
to her that the paymaster had more leis-
ure than the clerk; she could spend an
hour or two with the former early in the
afternoon, and later she could meet
Hamilton. AS for him, what had begun
as mere liking had ripened into an in
fatuation, and was now fast mellow
ing into genuine passion. To the
friends who watched him closely GER
tain brooding somberness of character
became evident. Receptions and balls
and dinners-his world, in fact-he
appeared to enjoy only if Marie were
there; and, indeed, he was never volun-
tarily out of her presence. He was in
capable of sustained energy; but he was
evidently seriously in love with her.
And thus this little drama went on.
Lent came and it still continued, and
the balmy days of spring were upon us,
and no one could guess what the closing
act would be.
It was on beautiful warm cay early
in April that Mrs. Forrest gave picnic
at the Great Falls on the Potomac; and
that she was woman of resources was
evidenced by the success she was able to
make of an all-day excursion. She carried
