It was a rich contralto of wide COM
pass, and in a manner never before
heard by mortal ears it sang Balfe's
beautiful ballad, The Heart Bowed
Down."
The effect was weird beyond the
telling of words. Each of us looked
like a craven image, and no man dared
to look in the eyes of his neighbor.
The song seemed to come from a long
way of, yet every tone was distinct.
and the accompaniment on Beasiey's
piano perfect. 1t was sung with q
depth of feeling that told that the
heart of the singer was in it.
The last verse was breathed in q
passion of sorrow. The vail Of it is
with me still
my God, that voice-that voice."
It was Attention who spoke. He had
thrown his head down on the table
between his arms, as if to shut out
the sound Just then the dying notes
of the song suddenly changed into the
strains of the "Lohengrin" wedding
march. I have heard it played at

It was that night by invisible hands
on Beasley's closed piano. In a paean
Of triumph it finally ended.
Silence of death fell on the room. It
was broken by gentle tap on the
window. Beasley, who alone had kept
his nerve, went forward softly and
threw up the blinds.
Heavens! Look there!" he said.
On the frosted window pane, stand
ing out against the clear moonlight,
was the face of woman. 1t seemed
to have been drawn with sharp point
in the film of the frost. Every line
was perfect. It was a beautiful face,
with an expression of sadness never to
be forgotten. The wide-open eyes
looked straight into the room. Be-
meath the picture. in q woman's hand.
these words were written:
Il have come for you. AGNES"
"Oh, God-it is she-it is she!"
It was Allenton's voice again. He
had risen from his chair and come to-
ward the window. In the moonlight
his face was a blush white Terror
was written on every feature Like
one under a horrid spell he stood for
. full minute. his eyes looking into the
eyes Of the face on the window. Then.

In the excitement that followed We
forgot the face. When next We looked
It had vanished. The frost In which Il
had been outlined had melted from the
glass. Yet frost still chung to the other
panes.
