He will not reveal his true name Oi ,he loca-
ton Of his home.
al1he confession was secured by his captor,
Marshall Ruby. In 1t he declares that his
brother planned the robbery and killed the
two men In the Sherburne bank. After de-
tai ing the killing OF the two men, he said he
and his brother were greatly alarmed lest
they be penned up IN the bank, and both
agreed that they must work rapidly. de
continued:

The sound Of measured footsteps put
IN end to the scene, leaving the pair dis

Ulya with amazement at his last words;
mounting above her other emotions.
He knew that she was Lord Inchcape's

1t was Mr.. Sircombe who strobe upon
them, SO grim and CHASTITY that ii either
had been capable OF examining him they
would have seen at once that he had
overheard the last speech at least, If no
more. and that his mind was made up.
He made no comment, however, ex-
cept to announce in toneless voice
that Kenmore won d follow to the

as il he would commit some madness II
she left him without one sign Of softened
feeling, she moved away like one In q

and climbed up the steep without one
backward glance.
aNow," said SIrcombo In q terrible
voice. when she was quite gone, "are you
satisfied that your honor is no safeguard
for that defenseless lady?"
Edgar turned gaze upon his would
be Judge that checked him like q stone

"Peaccl defamer of the Innocent"
said he. @You babble of honor? You

CHAPTER N.
GTHAT HAPPY BIRD. "

Edgar Arden laid down the last page
Of my lady'S story with an air OF inef-
able reverence; his who'll manhood rose
ND in indignant protest against the cruel
wrongs which had been hcaped nIOn
that sweet, devoted woman; he longed
70 be up and doing in her defense
"WhO will break your chain and set
you free, sweet soui?" murmured he
with generous emotion. 81 will, If man
san do it,"
He recall ed the long kept mystery
which had hung about his kinsman Inch
,ape, thought of his friends kept at o
distance, his noble aspirations laid down
all unfu filed; how the proud man had
suffered in thus wronging his innocent
wife.
To bring back happiness, honor, a
or nd name Nindicated-would not that
be triumph worth striving for? And
the young man S heart glowed in her, ic
impulse For he loved his kinsman. as
the Young French soldier loves the first
Napoleon, for the traditions Of his gr at
ness and for the pity OF his downfall.
Yet. in forming this resolve, Edgar
was not blind to the difference it might
make in his own fair future. AS long as
nv Lord Inchcape lived in estrangem mt
from his wife, Edgar Arden was his heir;
for five years he had belle ed h mself tho
inc liable successor Of the ear, had been
fitting himself for his future station, and
uniting himself for life of labor and
Obscurity.
All this passed clearly before him, yet
with undimmed enthus asm he Sti | went
back to his first dazzling impu s'-"I
shall be that guilt eSs lady's champion
| shall bring back happii SIS to r, and
b the husband she loves so well!"
When Edgar again sought the ladies,
they were settled with their work in the
summer house of the courtly Old garden,
Mr. Sircombe in attendance with his
book. Edgar was forced to put strong
copstraint upon himself to hide the
scsrp he te,t for the caitiff hound, but
for Lady Inchcape's sake he was en-
abled to treat him with nothing worse
than grim oivility. Still his private
opinion found ample expression in hiS
etss; and this stirred up Sircombe's s
secret amnesty to cod fury-he could
have poisoned the supercilious intruder.
Lady Inchcape had caused fur rug
TO be spread for the convalescent in u
pleasant nook, where he might rest and
receive the strengthening sat breezes,
While gazing on the fee sweep of the
OCEAN. dottcd with distant sails.
he welcomed him to her side with q

Gen. Thomas Lincoln Casey died sudden
ly this afternoon

The news caused a great shock to his
many friends in this city, as he was sup
posed to be in his usual health. The cause
of death is supposed to be apoplexy.
General Casey was at the new Congress
sional Library building all the morning. A
little before IL o'clock he was taken i'll at
the Office of the architect of the building
and lay down. He complained of severe
pains in the chest and about the heart.
DR.. Custis was called and said that he
thought the difficulty was neuralgia Of the
stomach caused by indigestion. Gen.
Casey's son and DR.. Gusts left the build
ing with General Casey at Il O'Clock and
took him to his home, where lie lay down,
and after a time said he felt much better.
The generals son returned TO the library
building at haf-past ] and said that his
father was considerably bette and was
resting comfortably.
in about fifteen minutes afterward a
message came from General Casey's house
saying he was dangerously i'll, and the gen.
erals son at once left for home. About .
o'clock a message came saying that he was
dead.
Gen. Thomas Lincoln Casey entered the
army as q cadet in the Military Academy
July 1, 1915, bee 1rne second lieutenant of
engineers June ~, 1854; two years later he
became a first lieutenant, and when the
war broke out had achieved his captaincy.
In 1863 he took another upward step IN
rank and finally Lecame a colonel Of en-
gineers March II. 1854.
The rank with which he retired-that Of
brigadier general and chief Of engineers
was conferred upon him July 6, 1885, and
that rank he continued to hold until the
date of his retirement, May 10. 1895.
He was placed in charge of the erection
Of the State. War and Navy Department
building, and superintendent the building of
the Washington monument, subsequently
taking charge Of the construction of the
new library building. which duty he had
continued to perform by request of Con-
gress.
Although Gan. Casey was on the retired
list, he continued, in accordance with the
law requiring him to supervise the new
library building. to receive the pay and
allowances of a brigadier general on the
active list.
