bers that ] will sec her at once. as she
has some thing OF .hc utmost import
ance to tell me, nal tina. something
feel certain Is the very Information

pocket, the suit Is won, and ! become
the mistress Of Wetherby Hall and
estate. which for many years have
been IN the 20 session Of nv cousin.
John Hardy, who was one Of those
men who inst ran past the window"
The interest ! felt IN my compan-
ION was IN no way diminished by the
fact that she was very pretty. being
tall. fair, and possessed Of the most
Iangking gray eyes that man ever
looked into to his souls undoing
begged she would allow me to assist
her in any wav that lay in my power,
rs Y was only but too probable tha:
| Hardy pres" nca IN the train bo1ed
| no good to har. even if il was not a
| source Of positive dGnger.. | also re
| minded her that she had already to
| some extent gwen me her confidence
/ which ] looked upon "a an assurance
that, although perfect stranger. she
! she felt that she could trust me This
she assured me she had done from the
first, and said how glad she felt when
| entcrcl the carriage We exchanged
cards, anl ! then learned that her
name was Una WetherDv SO after
some laughing AMI pleasant chat, it
was agreed that We should assume the
characters Of Una anl the Lion
After studying the position for a
short time. | came TO the conclusion
that the first thing to bo done was to
ascertain, If possible, what Hardy's
movements were likely to be- Accord.
Ing Y, when the train stopped, | made
my way to the ca-ric - where he and
his companion wn-c ,G.jed. Forum
ntelv,~ as It ha;s.cl (. |, the compart-
ment was full. r, took my seat in
the next one. which was empty The
carnage was one Of q nefrly obsolete
class. in which n single lamp, when
lighted, did duty for two compart-
ments; consequently the opening
made for its reception formed con.
venlcnt "JuGas- hole" for listeners. At
the next sta4 ION many passengers
alighted. anil Hardy and his friend
were left by themselves
"hlone at la-a said Hardy, '.and
We must make the most OF our present
opportunity for n quiet talk. AssooI
as We reach York, we'll leave the train
and III run np into the city to see
about old Re;tv Wilson's funeral.
am glad she has gone. as | never fcI
