CHAPTER VII.
TANGLING THE sKEIN.

The musicale had broken up early,
tightly closed. Not one light shone
from its tall, brown front, and the very
servants quarters were dark and still,
as the clock of the church hard by
changed out twice upon the night.
Bessie Westchester had soon left her
hidden guest, to mingle brightly again
with those below; but never had the
cordial hospitality of that fair maiden
of her whole household, in fact-really
found so ''sweet" that proverbially
much-slandered ''old word, good-by!'
Necessary sequele of feast properly
looked to, though in unusual haste for
a notable housekeeper, Mrs. Gray had
dismissed her willing servants to rest;
and, a little later, her husband had
quietly locked the door leading from
their wing to the family section of the
dwelling.
81 may disappOint some colored lodge,
for once" he had remarked to his wife,
as he pocketed the key; but tonight
even our own eyes and ears are danger
Gus to trust to-"
And now Bessie Westchester, her be-
coming ball-dress changed for loose,
but equally becoming wrapper, again
nestled on the floor, close to Carolyn
Clay, who waited, calm and resolute, as
the minutes sped on with feet that
seemed leaden-shod to her anxious sus-
pense. And below, her mother and
sister moved noiselessly about the
pantry, packing, as compactly as deft
hands might, an ample luncheon into
the fiat tin case.
"She will probably get wet, poor
child" the matron said, removing a
layer of thin sandwiches to wedge in
slices of fruit cake. The tin is the
safest; but, dear me, how little it
holds"
But these must go in, mamma" an
swered Miss Westchester. Dear Caro-!
No telling when she'll see fruit cake
againl How dreadful it all is, mamma!
Only think what she tells us about
sorghum and corn-breadl Wait; press
on the sandwiches while l wedge in
these sardines."
Really, WIFE," interposed the late
bachelor club man, you must expect
her to realize that green colonel's or
ders issued to his men, to cook and eat
five days rations immediately
II wish they all could over therey''
the wife retorted, her wanting logic
condoned by deep sigh. Just think
of your poor brother Llowndes, Gilmor,
starving on bacon and hard tackV"
at is good for his liver, my dear, "
Mr.. Gray replied, with lightness be-
lied by his eyes. my brother Llowndes
has SO far in his life eaten pate and ter
rapin enough to bring camp-fare for the
next ten years up to a pretty luxurious
| average"
But away up in the attic hiding-place
no badinage was spoken. Carolyn Clay
had several times gone over the details
of her perilous trip across. Each time
she had spoken with naive freedom OF
her fears, her suspense and her Joy at
rescue-all without reserve. But one
thing she had never told-approachinG

ing the process, snatcnes or Mccoy
from late opera bouffes. Then, as the
| cuckoo clock on his wall cooed out the
to the stable-yard.
The hunting-trap was already rolled
out; and, packing gun and bird-bag
carefully under the heavy fur robes, the
master turned, to find his ebon groom
close at his elbow.
Mass Will, ent yo' gwine ter read da
note?"
What note, Elijah?"
'Da note da WIFI man dun lef' Wv
yo' doan' read it?" And, for the first
time, the negro extended dingy en-
velope.
"Who left this? Did you tell anyone
Twas going gunning?" themaster asked.
anxiouslyH ~--s------,
How is gwine tell UNI, wen amt
knowed it? an, sides, e amt ak
nuthin'," the man replied, with the ne
gro's usual indirection.
WHO left it, sir? Hold your lantern"

beknownst to me an amt yeered his
entitle? Wen e AK is yo' in, amt tell
him is yo'; only AK i'm is yo' in? Den
he say, gle un dis note. shot Da's de
note"
Tearing open the envelope, on which
the gum was still moist, Mckee began
to read by light of the stable lantern,-
curiously at first, then eagerly, at last
with amazement stamped on every fea-
ture.
"Wait to hitch up till l come back.
Lock this gate after me-" he ordered,
rapidly. Then he passed into the street;
and the negro, hearing his rapid foot
falls ring along the stones, showed his
white teeth as he turned the key, and
muttered:
"Reck'n e ent comm back! Dis yere
hunt dun gone up. Da note cum frum
gal, sho' 'nutf!'

tale>for the last time as she believed
followed the night escape through the
driving snow, welcomed the slow-cOming
dawn, and thrilled at the first sight of
ROsser's advance.
What noble, selfless herop' the
younger girl cried, after a long-drawn
sigh of relief. "And not even to know
his name! would have had more Curl
osity, even then. But he must be gen.
tleman, Caro-! Base blood would never
have risked so much-been so tender
and trewe'-even for your eyesr'
Miss Clay's eyes were studying the
pictures in the fire. A half sigh trem-
bled to her lips; but she stifled it as she
answered, sadly:
HE was a gentleman - before he
joined Virginias enemies"
But, Caro-, they were not his enc
mics"
mo, seemingly not; only Virgtnta's, -
the other answered, with sudden fierce
ness.
But it is odd he never told you his
uame. It would have taken but an In
slant; and if you two ever meet
again"
God forbid that!" Carolyn Clay rose
to her feet, towering taller in the flick
ering freight. 81 hope never to look
upon his face again!'
''How uncompromising you arer her
friend persisted. Yet you owe him SO
deep debt-your life, perhaps"
eyes; owe him that-God help mel"
She turned away abruptly, as a deep
surge of color swept her pale face.
Eyes; owe him a debt l can never pay
never! owe him escape from a spy's
DEATH l owe him-oh, Bess, / never
realized half hOto much until rode in
sight of those dear gray jackets, st. An
drew's cross Auttering so gayly over
them!" She gazed absently into the
fire a moment, the color still warm on
her face. "And, Bess, when told Col.
Randolph every word the tr-the
man had said, he called me little
hero said / had put Rosser under deep
est obligation, that he could strike the
Yankees in the rear and the road to
the river was open to me-"
81 wish l knew s0ho he was" the
younger girl persisted, looking in
tently into the Goals at dimly-
sketched procession with background
of white lace and orange blossoms.
'Caro, after all these dreadful days are
over, when peace comes again, you two
pM meet again. Maybe this may bring
you closer"
'Neverl l will never look upon his
face againl' The words were low and
slowly spoken, but they had the solemn
| cadence of dirge.
"You cannot tell" Bessie urged. 1--WE
may all be one people again some
day. No girl can read her own fate,
dear; unless-they used to say, now 1
remember, that your willful heart had
found its MASTER"

itwlth ready purpose. only to lind her
lips close and throbbing something
just beneath her throat which she could
not control
She had never explained that the man
who had saved her, at risk of instant
traitors doom, was himself a renegade
doubly traitor to the cause that made
him so, by that very act. Far less hao
she been able to frame the two words
of his name, once sweetly familiar to
her lips, now bitter as Dead sea fruit
upon them.
Often-after Bessie had listened with
signs and tears of sympathy, then left
her-Carolyn Clay would upbraid her
conscience for this half-confidence to
friends so tender and SO loyal, even now
risking so much for her And then her
conscience would argue, not without a
quibble, that it was so unnecessary
that it could but disgrace his name for
those true ones who bore it so we'll
that this one exposure could do no good.
So the girl - reassuring herself, in
woman's way, that no lingering thought
of his past, no pity for herself, mixed
with the resolve-accepted her wish as
her duty, and was silent And Bessie
Westchester had accepted as true her
own brain-built little romance that the
self-sacrifce and grave peril had been
incurred by some federal officer for sake
of her friends helplessness in danger
perhaps, she told herself, for sake of her
fair face
And now the dark eyes of the listener
stood wide, and her gentle bosom heaved
