The Detective Continues His Work.

The Detective Continues His Work.
1t had bcen easy enough for Henry
Loud, the detective. to trace Vance
Rothesay from the railroad station in
Cotton to a hotel in Boston. Vance
had gone to the fremont house and
had taken a room, where he had re-
NAMED q few hours to rest. Then
n of the carriages belonging to the
house had taken him to the Boston
and Albany depot, and he had been
heard to say he wished to take a GER
tain train to New York; the carriage
had been ordered In time for that
train.
Here LIQUIDS information stopped abb
ruptly. 1t was very h%umiliating, but
he absolutely could find no trace OF
Rothesay after the young man had
alighted from the carriage and paid
the driver at the entrance to that
depot.
Here let II be ~stated-and on this
fact hung the strength of the evidence
against Rothesay-that on reaching
the depot and after he had paid the
driver Just before he was going TO
buy a ticket, he had remembered a liz.

"And if she does refuse?" Purcell
ventured to remark.

see, you'd better use your utmost in
fiuence to have the match come about
by decent means That's all I've got
to say about the matter. I'll see you
day after tomorrow, when l want
you to tell me what progress you
have made"
Without saying anything more, Burt
took UP his oars and turned his boat
shoreward, leaving Purcell staring
after him in surprise.
"Of course Kate must consent when
/ explain matters to her" the old
man unused. "She isn't the girl to
stand by ard see her father ruined.
She must be Burt's wife; that's the
sum OF the whole matter, and then !

whole attention to the finding of that
money. Yes, she must be his wife.
He loves her, and she'll grow 10 like
him well enough.
Purcell also took his oars and rowed
homeward. He was resolved to put
the matter directly before Kate. So
changed had he become within the
last year that those who had known
i'm only in the prime of his manhood
would hardly have recognized him
now.
Kate watched him with unspoken
anxiety; she saw that his mind was
not what 1t had been; she feared,
she knew not what, for the future.
She knew only one thing-that 1t
took strength, all her hope and loyalty,
to bear her along in the days that
were coming.
He had seemed less absent of late,
and she had began to hope that he
would again be like himself.
Sitting at the open window, with
some work in her hands, she saw him
coming up the sands. She saw in
stantly that he was intent upon some
thing. Resolutely she had set TO
work as soon as the detective had
gone: she fought every moment
against the fear and the love of her
heart.
The look Of repression upon her
face was painful to see, but her
father hardly noticed 1t as be came
in.
