Meanwhile another scene had been
enacted in the Dodge mansion.
When Mrs. Dodge returned from her
drive she found very fearful Lillian
stretched out in utter desolation on the
couch in the sitting-room.
Being much urged, and after consid-
cradle hesitation, the fearful figure on
the couch consented to tell the reason
of the woe that possessed her.
She confessed that she had become
acquainted with young man without
her mothers knowledge. She knew
she had done wrong, but that wasn't
the trouble.
The young man had said he loved
her. and now she would never see him

President Cleveland and his wife retire
each year to Buzzards bay, a truly ro-
mantic'seaport on the southern coast
of the state of Massachusetts,.

his hardy Norsemen first made their

the beautiful Elizabeth islands-Nev
Bedford, Fairhaven, Rochester, the

are all in close propinquity to Buzzards
bay.
Here the Clevelands have lovely
home, where the president can indulge
to his hearts content his hobbies of
fishing in the spring and summer and
duck shooting in the winter
Nor is Mrs. Cleveland far behind her
distinguished husband in either OF
these sports, II is said that Frankie, -
as she is familiarly called by her in.
Inmates, can cast a fly or bring down a
duck with the same precision as can the
president himself.
The president and his family live
very quietly when at their country
quarters, and very few besides his par
ticular cronies and her favored friends
are able TO find their way to the pretty
house half bungalow, half ranch-in
which they live,
There can not be much prettier pic

on fine summer morning by President
Cleveland seated in his old-fashioned,
wicker-slatted rocking chair, with its
high back and broad arms, reading the
newspaper which has just come in from

young man himself had told her that his
father would never think of consent
ing to the marriage.
Later, Arthur X. Berkeley, in de-
scribing to Lillian his fathers attitude
after the announcement of Mrs.
Dodge's commands to her daughter,
said that the iudge got up on his hind
legs at once.
Some such graphic expression is
needed in treating of Mrs. Dodge at
this point in the interview.
She felt that she had been insulted;
that the whole line of Dodges away
back to a prehistoric ancestor had been
insulted, and that her own family line
had been dragged in the dust as well.
She had been injured before. To
that injury had now been added insult.
But she would see. Heaven might
witness that she lofthed the thought of
an alliance with the Berkeleys, but re-
fusal of such an alliance, if refusal
there were, should come from her side,
Judge Berkeley should not interfere
with her daughters happiness, That
was one thing certain.
Later in the evening Judge Berkeley
arrived He took off his overcoat in
the hallway and came in, bringing his
golctaheaded cane and his tall hat,
and looking very grand and very de-
termined.
Mrs. Dodge received him with old

A determined and hostile man, and a
determined and hostile woman, both
being advanced in years, make a bad
combination. 1t is worse when as in
this instance, both are compelled by
breeding and instinct to preserve GER
tain external politeness. 1t lasts long
err, and there are fewer opportunities
to let off steam.
The widow and the judge got hope
lessly entangled in their discussions
Both had expected in the other an at
titude that was not now uppermost, if
present at all.
When the judge came away the only
distinct impression that he had in mind
was that he had in some way achieved
the purpose of his mission. He thought
that he ought to feel triumphant bu
he did not feel so.
Mrs. Dodge had more definite idea
of the interview, and it was more near
ly satisfactory to her. Judge Berkeley
had certainly asked for her daughter
for his son. That was satisfactory,
But before he asked she had com
mitted herself in a way that left her no
alternative, and she had consented,
The next morning Arthur and Lii
liam held ratification meeting in the
garden.
The Widow Dodge saw them from her
window and thought she would put as
good face on the matter as possible
and give them her blessing. She went
down her gravel walk toward the gar.
den.
The judge saw them from his win.
dow and wanted, despite himself. tc
meet his future daughter-in-law. He
walked down his gravel walk toward
the garden.
The gate had been long fastened

not climb the fence. He undid the
