l man. He dismissed his riotons

cd man. He dismissed his riOtouS
guests, resolving to lead a new life for
the future, to make all the amends he
cauld make for the terrible and guilty
rAst. But of n sudden strange sick
ness seized him, and utterly Frustrated
him; and he began to feel that his
earthly existence was fast drawing to
Il close. He did not regret that it was
so, for he was willing to quit the world
willing to do, but. oh! not ready yet.
Gertrude watched by his sick couch
botl by day and by night, never weary
of watching there; ever near to console
and comfort him; ever near to minister
to all his wants. TO whisper hopeful
words in his ear, and to lead his
thoughts to prayer. She never once
reminded him of his Sins--She knew
that he remembered them all full well;
but she spoke of our Father who is
in heaven, of His mercy to all those
who thoroughly repented of their evil
ways; and Sir Basil Dovetree listened
to her words, and his soul raised its
cry to heaven, entreating His forgive
ness.
Now, indeed, you are my wife, Ger
truder'

but her soft hand clasped his, and her
round, youthful cheek laid itself close
to his, as gently, as trustingly, and
as fondly as ever.
The next day Sir Basil was considera-
bly, worse, and the doctors shook their
heads, and looked compassiOnatcly at
the young wife, whose attention and
devotion towards her suffering husband
remained wholly untired.
"My peace is made there, Gertrude!'
said he, pointing to above. Il am not
afraid to die; my faith is too strong in
heaven to admit of any dread. l am
sorry" he continued-"I am very sorry
that my sinful hand was the malns of
sending Warrington unprepared-With
all his many sins upon his head-intO
the presence of his Maker. Yes, I
do regent me of that dced-I do re-
pent me of every wrong that I have
ever done"
Then there ensued a somewhat
lC1 gthy pause, in which no sound was
heard save Il womau's stif1ed sobs, ard
a mans labored breathings.
By-and-by the young baronet spoke
again. MY Gertrude will be happy
some day; her worth and goodness must
provide her with a fitting and noble
mate Ay, she shall be hOnored by
the world, when my worthless bones
shall be mouldering and forgotten
Say not forgotten, dear Basil; the
world may cease to remember you, but
your wife will never do so-never,
neverr
Another hour went by, and Gertrude
was gazing on the calm, lifeless feat
ures of her husband, Sir Basil Dove
tree Yes, he was gone-gone in the
springtime of his existence-gone to a
place where there was neither strife,
nor sin, nor sorrow.
His youthful widow mourned his loss
most sincerely; but never welded
again, although offers full many were
made her. She seldom left Eagle
Tower, and lived quite secluded life,
her days spent in performing acts Of
charity and goodness. One circum-
stance-namely, her grandfathers ex-
istence, which Sir Basil had forgotten
to make her acquainted, never came
to her knowledge.
