CHAPTER XIII.
A FACE IN THE CROWD.

-
Miss Jessica Gray, John Winthrop's
ward, was left an orphan with a fair
fortune in money and beauty at IF
teen. For three years she had been af-
fectionately cared for in the pleasant
Quaker homestead among the Berk-
shire Hills, growing in character, per-
haps, too much after the manner Of
the wild flowers theresa many flow
ers, so many weeds crowded together
indiscriminately. The lurking fire un-
der the Indifference Of her manner
might some day burn that which
should awaken it.
In the quiet home among the New
England Berkshires with gentle Mrs.
Winthrop for companion, her fercer
nature slept. Occasionally she reused
and frightened, surprising even her
self with her brilliance; but these rare
occasions were only when John Win
throp was at home. Still she did not
pause to analyze this change in her
self any more than she would have
analyzed change more marked in
any other. She was too indolent to
question the causes Of life. Life itself
was good; rather stupid at times, too
animal like, but worth living.
So that it was not until that morn
ing Of the adventure in front CT the
"Belie Jardiniere" that Jessica Grey
was .-oused to be more than passion
ate W Npap unawakened. She had new
er bef re Deen conscious Of the heart
that tnged her blood to the brilliant,
intense degree Of Beatrice Field. But
this morning the smouldering fire in
her blood began to lift and glow, per-
haps heralding-who knows-a crater
Gus outbreaking like the destroying
fires Of Aetna or Vesuvius.
81 beg your pardon. jack" she said,
smoothly, the waking demon lurking
in the darkening eyes, "but sometimes
am more lonely among these hurry
ing crowds than under the trees at
dear old 'Cedarhurst.' There ones
stupidity was not so markedly appar-
ent as 1t is here"
Her guardian was kindly attentive
at once. He fulfilled his duty to the
letter to this girl, as in all else of his
life.
"You do we'll to remind me, Jessica,"
he said, putting aside his own thoughts
for the time. You have been in
Europe for two years now, and if you
are still lonely. you should have told
me sooner. We return to America
next week. but until then, you shall
have an opportunity of making friends
here. I have Introductory letters to
