Meanwhile he inquired about him, and
found that he had come over in the
train of the Lebourgeoises and was re-

lady. The next morning at breakfast

Count was. He was the valet of Rob-
ert Graham, an eccentric Englishmau,
who was once under Keene's surveil-

into a wVnan scrape years ago. The

very eccentric and an equally

he was worth about $500, 900, was not
invested in lands, but in stocks. He
was the last of his family without
known relatives. He had no ties to
bind him to England, beyond a few
cronies in his London club. He turned
these stocks into cash and cleared
out for Australia. Then Keene lost
sight of him. Years went by, and the
child whom Graham unwittingly left
behind grew up into an engaging boy
He had been adopted into a childless
family of position into whose service

the divulsion of some important facts
to the foster parents. Graham had
legally married the woman and hence
their child was his heir. Very likely
if he were. informed of the
existence of so worthy a son, it
might be to the boys great advantage.
His foster parents were much opposed
to parting with him and had enough to
