might have been expected, SO why make
a row about thing that was a mistake
all around? Darcie by no means con-
sidered that any of it was a mistake;
but if his father chose to call it so, and
to give his consent to his wishes on that
understanding, he was willing to yield
the point, in name. But Faith declined
to go to England, into family that
gave her so cold welcome Therefore
Darcie. came to America as manager of
the Big Horn, and the intrepid young
pair went westward on their conquer
ing way, and left age and opposition be-
hind them. And if they have disap-
pointed each others high expectations
of happiness, the fact has not as yet
transpired to the knowledge of their
relatives.
Faith celebrates in her letters the
wonderful wild flowers of the Occur
d'Alene, the grandeur of its mountains,
the softness of its sudden spring. Other
persons maintain that the spring has
been very late in the Occur d'Alene this
year. Her aunts wonder if the climate
has changed. Something has changed,
the girl has found her heart of youth
again, and with it the courage to be
glad. The premature, crushing ex-
periences Of the year before, it's shocks
and shameful surprises, have taken
their due place in relation to larger
experiences and more vital discoveries.
She has parted with one sacred illusion,
but she is fortified against that irrep-
arabic loss by deeper knowledge of
life and it's inevitable shortcomings.
Greater joy than hers no woman, she
believes, has ever known. She cannot
look to have all the joys, and all the
strengths, of a woman's perilous life of |
the affections.
Her mother she lost before she ever |
knew her. A father she never had; he |
died the spiritual death before his child |
was born. The body of Frederick Bing-
ham still walks the earth, but his soul |
will never be cured by the Kelley or any
other mundane cure; it expired too
long ago. When the will is dead, the
man is dead. His children can only
mourn him, and pay what respect they
may to the dreary remains.
Darcie has his enemies in the Occur
d'Alene, but he has also his stanch
friends. Mike is foreman of the Big
Horn in place of Peter Banning, de-
posed; and Kitty Tyler, now Kitty Nc
Gowan, makes the surly Big Horn
kitchen realm of perpetual sunshine.
She is spelling her young mistress for
whatsoever her successor may be when
she and Mike go to housekeeping in the
fall.
