A STRANGE DOCUMENT.


As | could not secure a carriage to
myself in the train by which l returned
10 town, | had to defer closer examina-
ton of the papers l had found until j
had gained the seclusion of my own
chambers in Buckingham street.
The first of the documents contained
in Green's cigar case was letter, evil
IDENTIFY addressed to Mullen. 1t was
dated from Stavanger, Norway, and
ran as follows:
JAMES, know all. / have never
tried to spy into your affairs, but l have
known for long time that you have
been engaged in some secret undertak
ing which / felt sure was for 10 good
purpose. Your sudden disappearances
and equally sudden Temperatures, and
the large sums of money you have had,
have always been q source of anxiety to
me. That it was some political plot you
were engaged in was certain, for you
were not at such pains to disguise your
real views before me as you were before
others / remember your wild talk about
society having conspired to rob you
from before your birth, of your being
denied the right to bear your fathers
name, and Of your mothers name be-
ing dishonor to you. That your father
was villain to our mother know, and
it may be that from him you inherit
your evil tendencies, and that God may
not hold you morally responsible for
them. But, James, bad as your father
must have been, he was, after all, your
father, aud the language you sometimes
used about him has made me, who am
used to your violence, shudder and turn
sick.
"James, promised our dead mother
on her deathbed that would try to be
to you all that she was. She could do
almost as she liked with you-oould
soften you and turn you from evil as no
other person in the world could. There
was some strange sympathy between
I you and her. Perhaps your knowledge
Of her one and only sin made you tender
and chivalrous to her, just as it some
times-God forgive mei-made me,
who am so different from you and her,
hard. And perhaps her memory Of her
one SHINING made her gentle and tender
to you in your many. have had chill
dren of my own since then, James, and
think something has thawed in my
heart that was cold as ice before.

and speak softly to you, and that yor

been decoyed upon a yacht under some
pretext, or that he had been foolhardy
enough TO go on board of his own ao-
cord, perhaps in the hope of obtaining
further and final evidence of Mullen's
identity, or, it may be, with the idea
of achieving the fugitive's arrest. Once
on board, he had in all probability been
the victim of foul play. Very likely he
had been rendered insensible by blow
on the head given from behind, after
which he had been carried out to sea,
where he could be dispatched at leisure
and without any risk of his cries being
