CHAPTER vl.-tContinued.)

CAAPTEH VI.-(COntiuued.J
We walked home together. We had q
good deal to talk Of during the evening,
and sat up late. It was midnight before
I found myself alone In my own room.
I had half forgotten the crumpled paper
In my waistcOat pocket but now !
smoothed 1t out before me and pondered
over every word. No, there could not be
q doubt that 1t referred to Miss Olivier.
Why should she have strayed from
home? That was the question. What
possible reason could there have been,
strong enough to impel young and deli
cately nurtured girl to run all the risks
and dangers Of q flight alone and unpro-
tected?
What ought l to do with this adver-
tisement, thrust, as it would seem, pur-
posely under my notice? What was I to
do with the clue? might communicate
at once with Afessrs. Scott and Brown,
giving them the information they had ad-
vertised for six months before. l might
sell my knowledge Of Miss Olivier for
fifty pounds. In doing so I might render
her great service, by restoring her to
her proper sphere In society. But the
recollection Of Tardlf's description OF her
as looking terrified and hunted required
wildly to me. The advertisement put
her age as twenty-one. should not
have Judged her so old myself, especially
since her hair had been cut short was
not prepared to deliver her up until
knew something more Of both sides Of
the question.
Settled-that II l could see Messrs.
Scott and Brown and learn something
about Miss Olllviers friends, might be
then able to decide whether would be-
tray her to them; but I would not write.
Also, that ] must see her again first, and
once more urge her to have confidence
in me. II she would trust me with her
secret, would be as true to her as q
friend as l meant to be true to Julia.
Having come to these conclusions,
cut the advertisement carefully out OF
the crumpled paper, and placed 1t in my
pocketbook with portraits Of my mother
and Julia. Here were mementoes Of the
three women l cared most for In the
world-my mother first, Julia second, and
my mysterious patient third.
