They had been utterly blue and hope
less on Floyd's account since his trans
fer to New Orleans, and this letter was
q revelation. Esther took II up to her
mothers room and strove to make her
understand Its purport, ''Katesie" sit
ting silently, and, Mt first, scornfully
by. Mrs. Walton's faculties seemed too
dazcd to follow, and Esther Ind to re-
iterate and explain. Then the doctor
came, and the hale old gentleman's
eyes filed rs he read. "That young fell
low Is q trump" said he, referring to
Lambert; and he, too, bent over the
gentle invalid and whispered hope and
courage. Later, when Kate was wanted,
II was found she had quilted the room.
Esther discovered her after consider
able search, shivering in room up
stairs. She wouldn't talk, but that
evening came to ten.
For several days Miss Kate contrived
to hold aloof from the general CONVEX
sation, but It was hard fight against
every natural impulse. Before the end
OF the week her resolution had failed
her utterly, and time and again her
ready tongue had challenged Lambert
to debate; and now, to her chagrin, II
was he who declined. When formally
presented to any sister, Miss Walton"
by Mrs. Scroggs, the young gentleman
had bowed very low and had strivcn to
be civil. As they sat facing each other,
and only the width OF the table apart,
her downcast eyes and determined ST.
lence proved embarrassing, even though
long. curving, sweeping lashes and
flushed cheeks appeared, perhaps, to
dangerous advantage. "Aw pshaw!"
said Cousin Bart that evening, rs he
and Lambert were smoking the pipe OF
peace and the young fellow ventured
fear that he had offended the damsel In
the butter business, "just you pay no
attention to that child for n day or
two, an see how quick she'll come
round. She just wants to be hufIy.
She'll be hawbly cut up when she finds

little worldly wisdom when he wasn't
drinking. and since his installation as

touched n drop. Lambert was begin
ming to like him very much. but
couldn't induce him to come over TO
camp. ~ can't stand that captain OF
yours" was his sole explanation.
From frigid silence on Katesie's part
to occasional monosyllable and thence
to brief and caustic comments on the
remarks OF her sister and cousin the
transition was easy; but now that Lam
bert addressed no remarks whatever to
her, yet chatted smilingly with the
others, the girls position became en-
asperating. She was willing enough. at
the start, to keep at wide distance, but
that anybody should presume to hold
her there was n very different matter;
in fact, simply intolerable. Esther
