had a special facility for conducting
intrigue, and given a sufficient time
for development, would probably
not stop at crime.
Up to the present moment, how
ever, Clement had outwitted his
clear-headed cousin, for he was far
from discovering the secret of what
was really ~darkening the life of the
present owner of Aboyne Court.
About half a mile from the home
the two men passed each other, only
a hedge between them, but neither
wished to speak. Pierce felt keenly
alive to the mischief he had done his
cousin during the last half hour, and
Cit . never cared to look
Vaughan in the face. He was always
afraid of how much he knew and to
a certain extent gave him credit for
guarding a silence, which he most
as uredly would not have maintained
for ten minutes. Whether he felt as
sure about this silence when he
reached home and found Lady Ger
trude looking pale and somewhat
red about her pretty eyes, is doubt
full.
But he could not learn the cause
of her depression. She would not
give her new suspicion words, it vas
as yet too young to be altogether a
tangible form; she must wait and
watch.
Meantime she was te nder and low
ing to her Clement. She would not
be prejudiced against him simply on
Pierce's Vaughan's testimony, for
%womanlike, though when absent she
had almost believed him false, no
sooner did she look into his face
than her heart went forth to him
and seemed to tell her that he was
true,
Still from that hour henceforth
their relations must be somewhat
strained, and, however much tender
ness for each other might at times
bubble up into their hearts yet the
ghost would never be laid.
On the table in the library, near
where Lady Gertrude sat, some let
tiers had been placed by the foot
man, when he removed the tea.
They were all addressed to Sir
Clement, and N of them was in
the handwriting Of Lisbeth Glendin-
ming. At first Sir Clement guilty
thought that, this letter might have
o~ccasioned his wife's trouble, that
she had recognized Beta's writing.
He tore it open angry with Lisbeth
for sending to him thus openly, but
having read the missive his brow
cleared and he tossed it to Lady
Gertrudel

engaged to be married for forty

Like many other clever men, Sir
Louis had considerably iovershot his
mark in this will. All his wisdom
seemed to have gone forth in making
honest Sir Miles Berkely his execu-
tor, he did not seem to realize that,
as circumstances alter cases, the,
position of the two cousins would
change and that bad blood, unlest
they were absolutely saints, must be
the outcome of this testamentary
document.
There was yet another clause in
the will, more perplexing and more
calculated to produce greater diff
c%ulties, than that of the enforced
marriage; it was to the effect that,
should Clement Dunraven at any
time become divorced from Lady
Gertrude, by any fault OF his own,
the estates were to pass away from
him to his son and heir If he had
one, if not, to Pierce Vaughan as
next of kin.
Sir Louis D%unraven, with all his
shrewdness had scarcely taken the
measure of his pet nephew, his sis-
ter's son, or he would scarcely have
left such an instrument in the hands
of a man as sordid and cunning a.
was Pierce Vaughan.
Base and degenerate as had been
Clement Dunraven's act he was by
nature not nearly SO wicked o man
as his cousin. Clements vices were
the result of weakness, he could not
resist temptation, whereas the other
