not so Gray. He moaned in secret over
the loss of a strong mans confid dence
and esteem. He longed to find way
to win it back. He had even thought to
90 to the colonel with his trouble, make
a clean breast of it., tell him the truth
that he had fallen deeply, as it was pos
sible for him to fall, in love with Amy
Lawrence; had hoped his love was re-
turned; had found it was not-that
she had only frank, friendly, kindly
interest in him; and that, wounded
and stung, he had fretted himself into
a fever at Honolulu, aided by Canker's
aspersions, and then-well-any man
is liable, said Billy to himself, to get
smitten with a woman who tenderly
and skillful]y nurses him day after
day; and that's just what Witchie Gar
rison did. But somehow the opportun
ity to tell him never seemed to come;

such circumstances, since neither could

silence to the keen, quick examination
of the skillful surgeon in charge and
to the redressing of his wound. He
could have been proud and happy but
for that shadow on his life, of which
Armstrong; presence would so con-
stantly remind him. He could not even
think how his dear old dragoon daddy
would rejoice in the congratulations
that would surely greet him when the
story of the brave dash of the -teenth,

CHAPTER XVII.

In the fortnight Of incessant action
that followed the mad attack of that
starlit Sunday morning, there was no
place for Billy Gray. Sorely wounded,
yet envied by many fellow soldier for
the glowing words in which the bri gade
commander praised his conduct and
urged his brevet, the boy had been
carried back to the great reserve hos
pital at Ma]ate. The breezy wards
were filled with sick and wounded, and
certain of tie rooms of the. old con-
vent once used for study and recita-
ton had been set apart for officers.
There were three cots in the one to
which they bore him, and two were al
ready occupied. Even in his pain and
weakness he could hardly suppress a
cry of dismay; for there, with his arm
bandaged and in splints, his face white
from loss of blood, lay Stanley Arm
strong. Time and again the boys heart
and conscience had rebuked' him for
the estrangement that had arisen be-
tween him and this man who had
proved his best friend. Time and again
he had promised himself that he would
strive to win back that friendship; but
we'll he knew that first he must rein
state himself in Armstrong; respect;
and how could he hope for that SO long
as he surrendered to the destinations
that kept him dangling about the
dainty skirts of Witchie Garrison?
Oddly enough, the boy had hardly both
cred his head with any thought of what
Frank Garrison mi ght think of his at
tentions or devotions, whatever they
could be called, to this very captivating
and capricious helpmate. When a hus-
band is so overwhelmed. with other
cares or considerations that he never
sees his wife from morn till night, So
ciety seems to correspondingly lose
sight of him. Down in the depths Of
his heart the boy was ashamed of him
self. He never heard Armstrong men,
toned that he did not vince. He knew
and she knew that, coming suddenly
upon them as Armstrong had that
tropic night on the Queen, he must have
heard her words, must have realized
that some compact or understanding
! existed between them, which neither
Gray nor Mrs. Frank could palliate or
explain. 1t had not needed that epi-
sode to tell her that Armstrong held
her in contempt; and yet, when they
