CHAPTER II.
"My dear Kitty, it is very foolish aud
emotional of you to wish to see the troop
ship start. You will probably be quite
overcome, all the more so'-and here
Capt. Pelham patted his betroth's curly
head-"as we've, my darling, shall so
soon too have to say good-by to one an-
other"
Vincent could never entirely divest him
self of certain stiffness of manner, even
when he was most genuinely moved. His
gestures, as, bending over her, he stroked
Kitty's hair, were also little stilted
Miss Malone looked him straight in the
face, and smiled, half sadly.
'You needn't be afraid | shall break

Capt. Pelham Strengthened himself,
stroked his moustache with both hands
his favorite habit, and allowed the subject
to drop.
But it came about that two days after

car, with Lady CeIbridge as her cdm-
panion, drove to the station on sunny,
cloudless morning, sat silently for half an
hour in the train, and then with rather
flushed cheeks and shining eyes, walked
with her friend to the wharf.
Her glance fell on scores Of soldiers in
helmets and serge TUNES, many of them
with laughing, boyish faces, almost all try
ing to look as if they had at last attained
the one desire Of their hearts, and here and
there on a woman with swollen eyes and
lips shut tight as if to prevent any expires
sion of emotion. There were endless bales
of luggage Uttered on the stones, horses
about to be slung on board, careless and
interested spectators getting 10 each others
way, talking, advising, gesticulatiug. Capt
Vincent was already on the wharf, erect
self-satiied, aud welI-dressed as usual Ht
