continued:
"She is not like one of common birth;
she has the grace of lady. I was

CHAPTER IX.-(CoNTINUED.


She ceased her TRADE, and stood gaz-
ing keenly at Marjorie, who sat still,
listening in wonder. Despite her sharp
tone and brusque manner, there was
a tenderness in her tone that could not
be mistaken. Then, all at once, with
the abruptness peculiar to her, she
changed her tone again, and broke into
a low, chuckling laugh.
"And now I haze preach'd my SER
mon," she said, with her grim smile,
"hae you had breakfast? Will you TAX
some tea?''
But Marjorie had breakfasted before
starting, and wanted nothing.
Every we'll Come and walk in the
garden"
She led the way from the room, and
Marjorie quietly followed.
Passing out by the rear of the house
cross a lonely court yard, they reached
a door in the high wall, and entered
the garden-a wilderness of fruit trees,
shrubs, and currant bushes, sadly in
need of the gardeners hand. Tangled
creepers and weeds grew over the
grassy paths. Here and there were
seats, and in one corner was an arbor
almost buried in umbrage. 1t was a
desoIate, neglected place, but the sun
was shining, and the air was bright
and warm.
Miss Hetherington took her compan-
ions arm and walked slowly from path
to path.
"The gardens like it's Mistress" she
said presently, lonesome and neglectit.
Since Waite Henderson died, I haze
never employed a regular gardener.
But it's bonny in summer time, for a

should like weel to be buried here,
right in the heart O. the auld place."
She entered the neglected arbor and
sat down YEARLY. Marjorie stood lock-
;ng at her in timid sympathy, while
she pursued the dreary current Of her
thought
Folk say I'm mean, and maybe
am; but it's no that! I'm the last o
the Hetheringtons, and it's right and
fitting that the place should waste ava
like myself. But l mind the time weel
its no sac lang syne-when it was
gladstone and merry. Everything was
in grand order then, and my father
kept open house to the gentry. Now as
changed! Whites I wonder what will
become O. the auld house when I'm
ta'en. Strangers will come, maybe, and
turn it upside doom. What would you
dae, Marjorie AMMAN, if you were a rich
Teddy and mistress O. a place like
this?"
The question came so abruptly at the
end Of the long string of lamentations,
that Marjorie scarcely knew what to
reply. She smiled awkwardly, and re-
peated the question.

The lady nodded her head APPROX

three pairs of eyes at least were con-

belonged to young Sutherland, the Sec

the eccentric mistress of Hetherington
Castle.
Of these three individuals Caussidiere
was the most i'll at ease. The sermon
bored him, and he yawned again and
again, finally going to sleep.
He was awakened by LOUD noise
and looking round him, he saw the
congregation moving toward the door,
and Solomon Mucklebackit, from the
precentors desk, glazing down at him
in indignation. He rose languidly, and
joined the stream of people issuing
from the church.
Out in the churchyard the sun was
shining golden on the graves. At the
gate several vehicles were waiting. in
Guiding the brougham from Hethering

AS Caussidiere moved down the path,

eyes.

"Humph!" said the lady. Como AVA

She walked slowly down the path,
while Marjorie followed in astoriSh
ment, and coming right up to the
F'renchman, she looked him deliberate
ly over from head to foot. Not at all
disconnected, he took off his hat again,
and bowed politely.

respect.
