CHAPTER III.

1t was not very eventful life that
Philip Lynne reviewed on that sum-
mer morning as he travelled from
Severnoke to Bathurst,-a calm, hap
Ply life of twenty-five years dura-
ton, neither frightened by vivid sun
shine nor darkened by violent storms.
His home had been a peaceful one
no dark dull care brooded over it: but
he remembered how his parents had
struggled to keep up appearances,
and to maintain the dignity of their
name and race. His father was the
youngest and only surviving brother
OF Lord Lynne. He was not wealthy
man. He had but a younger. brothers
portion, and that was not a large one.
He married lady who, though we'll
born and beautiful, had no fortune;
and their union proved very happy
one, although they had been Obliged
to economist, and deny themselves
sometimes even the comforts of life,
IN order that they might live as be-
came the Lynnes of Lynnewold.
No expense had been spared on
Philips education; for although as
parents had much ado to keep their
footing in society, he had bright
prospects. He was the heir of his
uncle, the wealthy Lord Lynne of
Lynnewold.
There are not many older families
in England than the Lynnes. In the
earliest history of the kingdom they
Inquired largely in nearly every reign.
One of the bravest knights who
served that brave king, Edward the
first, was Hubert Lynne of the WoIde,
as their house was then called.
stephen Lynne fought with the Black
Prince, and added fresh laurels to his
name. Henry the Fifth had no Drawer
or better soldier than Bertrand the
Strong, Lord of Lynne. In the Ware
of the roses they fought and dis
tinguished themselves. A Lynne
helped to win the battle of Bosworth
Field. At the Field of the Cloth of
Gold Lynne was amongst the hand
soonest and most gallant knights.
The great maiden Queen herself
visited Lynnewolde, where she re-
ceived the homage of the then Lord
Lynne. When Charles the First came
from his prison cell to the scaffold. a
Lynne stood near his royal master
and would gladly have died in his
place. When the "Merrie Monarch
was welcomed to his throne, none re-
ceived him more joyously than the
Lord of Lynne. who had expended
nearly all his wealth in the service OF
his debonnaire sovereign.
But from that time the glory of the
Lynnes faded. Whether they were
really impoverished through the i'm
mense sums raised by Richard Lord
Lynne, for thH enefit of his royal
master. or whether their zeal died
with the Stuarts, none can say; but
from the reign of Charles the Sec
ond there is no more mention of them,
at least in public history. In the
private annals of the family there is
a record of each Lord Lynne who
lived and died at Lynnewolde.

The sentence was never Finished
for at that moment Lord Wyverne en-
tered the room hastily, saying that
the carriage was waiting.
"Good-by," said Philip to the Young
girl, my regret at leaving you is
lessened by the hope of being allowed
to see you soon again."
If Philip Lynne could but have fore
seen where and how he would see that
beautiful young girl next-if she had
known how many years would pass
before her hand touched his again
before she would see his face or hear
his voice, she would not have parted
with him so cherfully.
Twice that morning Philip Lynne
had been on the point of proposing
for Lady Florence,-once to her
father, and once to herself; but each
time sudden and accidental inter-
ruption prevented the words from be-
ing spoken that would have bound
him to her for life. In after years he
wondered much what his life would
have been had he quilted Severnoke
Castle as the betrothed husband of
Flornce Wyverne.
There was not much time for
thought. In two minutes after Philip
Lynne had said good-by to Lord
Wyverne's daughter he was on his
way to the station.
1t was not until Philip was seated
in the train that he had time to re-
view at leisure the events that had
happened, and to speculate upon the
future that lay before him.

There may be some who may demur
at the rule Of the Signal to charge for
all advertising of fairs, festivals or en-
tertainments when an admission is
charged or money received, as set
forth in a notice at the head of our To-
cal columns to-day, but when
they look ut the matter from q

Usher cannot, nor can the publisher of
any paper conducted on business prin-
ciples, afford to give advertising or

chant can toss over the counter free

A newspaper is a legitimate business
institution; its columns are stock in
trade, and so far as the Signal is on
cerned announced announcements must
be paid for, no matter in what part of
the paper they appear. The manage
ment may reciprocate when courtesies
in tho shape of job printing, etc, are
