Good resolutions filed his mind.
He would never do anything OF i'm

'curse OF the Carews." He could see
the windows of tho room where his
fathe died.
lie could see the spot marked by the
white marble cross, who his father
had been thrown by the horse which
he had ridden because every one had
advised him not % do so; and he said
TO himself that the Sumo fate should
never overtake him. He would listen
TO reason. follow the advice of those
who counselled him and take him Elf
TO task when he felt his own will mas
tering him.
everently enough tho handsome
young heir barred his head as he said
aloud:

the great mansion was crowded with

/ gardens were thronged with peOp @;
all the servants and the tenants AID
! laborers on the estate were feted to
their hearts con emit If good wishes
and ringing cheers could have secured
Sir arlos' happiness, it would never
have failed HIM. 1t was perhaps the
happiest day of his life. The lestiyi-
ties were prolonged until late hour.
A grand bad was given in the evening
! by Lady Carew to the aristocracy OF
the county: and there Sir Carlos saw

he would make a good landlord.
Looking at his handsome face. Lady

would soon fall in love. Already he
was looked upon as one of the most
eligible Young men in the county.
The Duchess Of Welde invited him TO

neighborhood. would not have been
averse TO improve still further her
acquaintance with Sir Carlos Carew.
No woman could look unmoved upon
that handsome face; but as yet Sir
Carlos's heart was free from the
haunting dream called love. He

heart beating fast and no had re-
