AS to Mary's dover, Henry was to
pay Louis only 100000 crowns, but he
made the marriage an excuse for an
extra 100000 to be devoted to his own
private use.
When we arrived at the palace the
girls went to their apartments and |
to mine, where l found Brandon read

our common room-a dormer window

tie passage as broad as the window it.

long. In the alcove thus formed was
q bench along the wall, cushioned by
Brandons great campaign cloak. In
this window we often sat and read, and
here was Brandon with his book. had
intended to tell him the girls were COM
ing, for when Mary asked me If |
thought he would come to her at the
palace, and when l had again said no,
she reiterated her intention of going
to him at once; but my courage failed
me and did not speak of it.
1 knew that Mary ought not to come
to our room, and that if news of it
should reach the kings ears there
would be more and worse trouble than
ever, and as usual Brandon would pay
the penalty for all. Then again, if it
were discovered it might seriously COM
promise both Mary and Jane, as the
world is full of people who would rath-
er say and believe an evil thing of an
other than to say their prayers or to
believe the holy creed.
l had said as much to the Lady Mary
when she expressed her determination
to go to Brandon. She had been in the
wrong so much of late that she was
humbled, and l was brave enough to
say whatever l felt, but she said she
had thought it all over, and as every
one was away from Greenwich it
would not be found out if done Sc
cretly.
She told Jane she need not go; that
she, Mary, did not want to take any
risk of compromising her.
Jane would have gone, though, had
she known that all her fair name would
go with her. She was right, you see,
when she told me while riding over to
Windsor that should Mary's love bios
som into full blown passion she
would wreck everything and every
body, including herself perhaps, to at
tain the object of so great desire
1t looked now as if she were on the
highroad to that end. Nothing short
of chains and letters could have kept
her from going to Brandon that even

her that was irresistible and swept
everything before it.
In our garnet she was to meet anoth-
er will, stronger and infinitely better
controlled than her own. and | did not
know how it would all turn out

I&1 when a knock at the door an
Esssa--1ssSi nounced the girls. l admitted
l.saNsz1 them, and Mary walked to
the middle of the floor. 1t was just
growing dark, and the room was quite
dim, save at the window where Bran
don sat reading. Gods, those were eX-
citing moments, My heart beat like
woman's. Brandon saw the girls when
they entered but never so much as
looked up from his book. You must re-
member he had a great grievance. Jane
and had remained near the door, and
poor Mary was a pitiable princess,
standing there so full of doubt in the
middle of the ROOM After a moment
she stepped toward the window and,
with quick coming breath, stopped at
the threshold of the little passage.
Master Brandon, have come, not to
make excuses, for nothing can excuse
me. but to tell you how it all happened
by trusting to another"
Brandon arose and marking the
place in his book with his finger, fol-
lowed Mary, who had stepped back
ward into the room.
"Your highness is very gracious and
kind thus to honor me, but as our ways
will hereafter lie as far apart as the
world is broad, think it would have
been far better had you refrained from
so imprudent a visit, especially as any
thing one so exalted as yourself may
have to say can be no affair of such as
lone just free of the hangman's
moose"
"Oh, don't, l pray you. Let me tell
you, and it may make a difference. 1t

as you do. after-after-you know; aft

she blushed red as blood-"to one for
whom you care so little that you could
leave him to die like a dog, when q
word from you would have saved him
what reason have | to suppose they are
not for every man."
This gave Mary an opening of which
she was quick enough to take advan
tage, for Brandon was in the wrong.
You know that is not true. You are
not honest with me nor with yourself
and that is not like you. You know thai
no other man ever had, or could have
