The Melancholy lIusSaf.
By THOMAS HARDY.
CHAPTER ".
copyright. 1895. by the Auth ,r.i

Tt was on a soft. dark evening of the
following week that they engaged in
the adventure. tT7iiiist was to meet her al
point in the highway at which the
lane to the village branched off. Chris
toph was to 60 ahead Of them to the
harbor where the boat lay, row it round
the Nothe-or Lookout, as it was called
in those days-and pick them up on the
other side Of the promontory, which
they were to reach by crossing the har-
Dor bridge ON foot and climbing over
the Lookout hill.
As soon as her father had assembled TO
his room she left the house, and bundle
in hand proceeded at trot along the
lane. At such an hour not a soul was
afoot anywhere in the village, and she
reached the junction of the lane with
the highway unobserved. Here she took
up her position in the obscurity formed
by the angle Of fence, whence she
could discern every one who approached
along the turnpike road without being
herself seen.
She had not remained thus waiting
for her lover longer than a minute
though from the tension of her nerves
the lapse of even that short time was
trying-when, instead Of the expected
footsteps, the stagecoaeh could be
heard descending the hill. She knew
that Tina would not show himself till
the road was clear and waited impa-
tiently for the coach to pass. Nearing
the corner where she was, it slackened
speed, and, instead of going by, as usual,
drew up within few yards Of her. A
passenger alighted, and she heard his
voice. 1t was Humphrey Gould's
He had brought friend with him
and luggage The luggage was deposits
ed on the grass, and the coach went on
its route to Weymouth.
II wonder where that young man is
with the horse trap" said her former
admirer to his companion. Il hope we
shan't have to wait here long 1 told
him 10 o'clock precisely.
Have you got her present safer"
Phyllis? Oh, yes. 1t is in this
trunk. hope it will please her -
"Of course it will. What woman
would not be pleased with such hand
some peace offering?"
We'll, she deserves it. I've treated
her rather badly. But she has been in

was no camp for her now. 1t was as
dead as the camp Of the Assyrians after
the passage Of the destroying angel.
She noiselessly entered the house, see
ing nobody, and went to bed. Grief,
which kept her awake at first, ultimate
~ wrapped her in heavy sleep The
next morning her father met her at the
foot Of the stairs.
Mr. Gould is comet he said trium-
phantly.
Humphrey was staying at the inn and
had already called to inquire for her
He had brought her a present Of a very
handsome looking glass III frame of
repousse silver work, which her father
held in his hand. He had promised to
call again IA the course of an hour to
ask Phyllis to walk with him
Pretty mirrors were rarer in country
houses at that day than they are now,
and the one before her won Phyllis adj
mirati0n She looked into ii, saw how
heavy her eyes were, and endeayored to
brighten them. She was in that wretched
state of mind which leads a woman to
move mechanically onward in what she
conceiyes to be her allotted path Mr.
Humphrey had in his MISUNDERSTANDING
way been adhering all along 70 the old
understanding. It was for her to do the
same and to say not a word of her own
lapse She put OH her bonnet and tip
pet, and when he arrived at the hour
named she was at the door awaiting
him.

snrlek rom the wall Of Dr. Grove s
garden, and some ono fell down inside,
but nobody among the spectators with
out noticed it at the time. The two ex-
ecuted hussars were Matthaus Tina and
his friend Christoph. The soldiers on
guard placed the bodies in the collins
almost instantly, but the colonel of the
regiment, an Englishman, rode up and
exclaimed in a stern voice, Turn them
out---as an example to the menu
The collins were lifted endHlse and
the dead Germans flung out upon their
faces on the grass. Then all the regi-
ments were marched past the spot, and
when the survey was over the corpses
were again eoffined and borne ,,ss=ag.
Meanwhile Dr. Grove, attracted by
the noise Of the yolley, had rushed out
into his garden, where he saw his
wretched daughter lying motionless
against the wall She was taken in
doors, but it was long before she recoy-
cred consciousness, and for weeks they
despaired of her reason.
1t transpired that the 1uckless desert
ers from the York hussars had cut the
boat from her moorings in Weymouth
harbor, according to their plan, and,
with two other comrades who were
smarting under i'll treatment from their
colonel, had sailed in safety across the
channel But, installing their bearings,
they steered into Jersey, thinking that
island the French coast. Here they were
perceived to be deserters and delivered
up to the authorities. Matthaus and
Christoph interceded for the other two
at the court martial, saying that it was
entirely by the formers representations
that these were induced to go. Their
sentence was accordingly COMMITTED to
hogging, the death punishment being
reserved for their leaders
The visitor to Weymouth who may
care to ramble to the neighboring vii
lage under the hills and examine the
register Of burials will there find two
entries in these w rds:
Matth: Tina (Corpl in His Maj
esty 5 Ieegnlt Of York Hassars and Shot
for Desertion, was Buried June 80, 1901,
aged % years. Born in the town Of
Saarbruek, Germany +"
Christoph Bless, belonging to His
Majesty's Regmt. of York Hussars, who
was Shot for Desertion, was Buried
June 80, 1901, aged % years. Born at
Lothaargen, Alsatia y
Their graves were dug at the back of
the little church near the wall. There is
no memorial to mark the spot, but
Phyllis pointed it out to me. While she
lived she used to keep their mounds neat,
but now they are overgrown with net
ties and sunk nearly fiat. The older vii
layers, however, who know of the cpl
sode from their parents, still reeollect
the place where the soldiers lie Phyllis
lies near.

Rev. Eddie Golf, is a pastor of no

the pastor of more churches than
one, several in fact Some months
ago at his residence in the country
Mary Simms visited the parson who
was entertaining quite a crowd. The
preacher felt like Mary was home
folks and asked her to help cook
dinner. She consented, and to facil-
itate matters she removed her brace
lets. When the work was done and
the time to 90 home had come Mary
forgot her jewelry Her host also
forgot it. She sent back repeatedly
for her trinkets, but the parson is
such an absent minded man that he
neglected to send them to her At
ter vain en- treaties she secured enc
of the bracelets, the other one hav-
ing been misplaced, so said the good
wife of the reverend gentleman.
Unfortunately the missing bracelet
was found in Hills jewelry shop
where the preacher had ordered il
made into rings aud things and
find array. This brought on more
talk, so much talk that Eddie and

Then the brothers and the sisters
of COTS various congregations took
the matter up. They got up bond
as long as the present drouth and
so they bailed him out, as the say
ing goes. He now basks in the sun
