CHAPTER XVIII.
SEEKING REFUGE.

The journey to the plantation was &
comparatively short one, and the three
women at first found it not so tire
some and uninteresting as they had
feared. although it was depressing to
degree.
They set out early in the morning
through country somewhat gloomy,
and in places covered with water.
The rain fell at intervals, but the sun
dashed warmly out between the show
ers, as the winter sun does in that
tickle, April-like climate, giving them
now and then a golden CLEAN while
they were trundled slowly along under
the moss hung trees. The spacious
carriage with its easy springs and
luxurious cushions afforded ample
room for its fair occupants to rest at
ease.
Mademoiselle de Sezannes, who had
never been much in the country and
whose volatile spirits were easily set

interest her on the way; but Mrs.
Vernon end Pauline could not pull
their minds away from the fact that
they were once more leaving Chateau
d'Or for al indefinite sojourn in a
lonely plantation house. Their former
experience Of a country life in re-

recalled it, did not present to their
minds It's more pleasing associations,
but turned persisteatly to view those

with the coming of Burns and the
robbiug OF V&sseur. To be sure,
Pauline remembered, with girls
vivid faithfulness, every look, every
word, every movement OF Fairfax dur
ing those dawn-hours of her love; but
the darker things would insist on
taking precedence, and her mind
dwelt upon all that she had heard Of
Pierre Rameau and his crimes. She
anil her mother had both strenuously
objected to leaving the city, aud hav-

1T seems too bad that this dreadful

it so, Pauiine?"
