you?" said a sleepy voice, as Mollie
reused herself from the slumber into
which she had fallen by the side of
the bed. "Kittie, it is striking IL by

1t was Easter eve once more: not

suspicious eyes, eve allowing her to

would not be safe.
Stealing quietly down the dark
stairs, Mollie gained the drawingroom.
and, possessing herself Of the bottle
of cloves, was returning, when as she
got to the door she saw a faint light
at the top of the stairs.
Who was abroad in the house this
night Of all others, when no servant
would stir alone, when they vowed that

his haunts and a light had been seen

it would alter nothing, only cause a
