zens' he was thrilled by the sweetness
Of a wOmar's song, and, gazing in at
her as she sang to an applauding audi

face as sweet as the voice Several
evenings he ~pent on the broad veranda,
for every night she sang, and ere long
noticed him So did prominent society
women, and read his unspoken admira-
ton.

is a lovely girl and so lonely, you know
She is engaged as companion, it seems,
to Miss Haight-a dragon of an old
maid, who is a good deal of an invalid
and seldom out of her room. That is
why you never see the girl at the hops
at the Point, yet know she'd love to
CO."
Loring felt that he blushed with
eagerness and pleasure, though he mere
Iy said please, and so Miss Geraldine
Allyn met Lieutenant Loring of the
engineers, and within the fortnight he
knew, though he strove to hide it, that
he was madly in love with her. Such
beauty, such a voice, such appealing
loneliness were too much for him. Six
long weeks, though he became her shad
ow, Loring struggled against his pas
sion. He had planned that for years he
should remain single until he had saved
a modest nest egg. Then, when he had
rank and experience had moved il the
world and had ample opportunity &c
study women, he would select for him
self and deliberately lay siege to the
girl he thought to make his wife.
But when his duties were completed
with the 2Sth of August and he should
have gone to his home, Loring remained
at the Point, fascinated, for Miss Haight
and her musical companion staid at
Cozzens' through September. In Octo-
Der they were to 60 to LenOx, and, be-
fore the parting, Loring's ring was On
that little inger-she had promised to
be his wife Home then he hurried in
response to the pleading of his sister,
but the moment the LenOx visit was
over and Miss Haight returned to New
York thither went Loring, to find his
Gancee at the piano, with a middle
aged, somewhat portly civilian bending
eagerly over her, and so engrossed that
he never saw or heard the intruder.
This was Nov f. The engagement
was barely six weeks old, but Loring's
ring was not on her finger as she rose
in confusion to greet him. More than
that, she wrote piteous letter to him
begging for her release. She REALLY had
not known her own mind" Loring
gave it without word to or without
other sight of her, packed his trunk and
left New York Oh the morning train.
There was a sensation at the Point when
it was announced that Miss Allyn was
to marry Mr.. Forbes Crosby, wealthy
board of trade man. of 40.

CHAPTER Y.

The suffers shack at Camp Cooke
was crowded with officers that evening,
and the episode of Nevins' address was
the talk of all tongues. Certain civilians
were there, too, frequently of Sancho's
place, but they were silent, observant
and unusually abstemious. To say that
Nevins had astOnished every body by an
exhibition of feeling and an excess of
conscience would be putting it mildly.
But the fact was indisputable. He him
self, after adjournment, exhibited to the
interrogative ajOr two long letters, re-
Gently received from San Francisco, in
graceful feminine hand and signed,
"Your sad but devoted wife, Naomi"
One of these referred to Lieutenant Lor-
ing, whom Geraldine met at West
Point and saw frequently. the summer
and fall that followed his graduation. F"
There were members of the court who
sought to hear what Loring had to say
on the subject, but he proved unap-
proachable. All men noted the amaze
indeed, the shock-that resulted from
Nevins' public and somewhat abrupt
mention of the sisters name The
judge advocate sat for moment as
though stricken dumb, his eyes fixed
and staring, his face pallid, the muscles
of his compressed lips twitching per-
ceptibly, his hand clinched and bearing
hard upon the table.
There were few army women at Camp
Cooke in those days-only two or three
veteran campaigners and one misguided
bride-but had the post been full OF
them there could hardly have been curl
