sides these were Deputy County Clerk
Walter Ridgeway and Constable Louder, Of
Franklin Township. Itrequired minute
to take in the situation, then the scribe
knew that wedding was in progress. The
man gave little nod when the justice
asked him if as would love, cherish and
protect, but the Esquire made him say
yes" good and strong but Nellie had her
voice when it came her turn to speak and
she promised to obey in voice that
carried conviction with it. Inquiry as to
the necessity Of the hasty nuptials, dis
closed that the newly welded couple were
Jennie and Carmine Gubitosa of
Franklin Township, and that they were
under arrest on an Indictment alleging that
they had stolen $400 in cash from the home

allegation is that after taking the money
they left together. On their retnrn few
days ago they were taken in custody on
bench warrants, and were enroute to Jail
when they determined to enter as guests of
Sheriff Jones as man and wife.
The girl denies the alleged theft and
says she left home TO save her life Since
the death Of her mother. four years ago,
she says, her father has been cruel par
ent, beating her frequently, and threaten
ing to kill her. The day before she ran
away, she says, her uncle ccme over from
New York, and after conference with her
father she was shown photograph Of a
young man in New York who was to come

nobleman who wishes to go to New
Spain incognito, and will 20 aboard
just before they sail. l will buy 2
mans complete outfit and will practice

could see the scarlet even in the gath
er1ng gloom. She continued: Gas to
my escape, | can go to Windsor, and
then perhaps on to Berkeley castle,
over by Reading, where there will be
no one to watch me. You can leave at
once, and there will be 10 cause for
them to spy upon me when you are
gone, SO it can be done easily enough.
That is it. I will so to my sister, who
is now at Berkeley castle, the other
side of Reading, you know, and that
will make shorter ride to Bristol
when we start"
The thought, of course, could not but
please Brandon, to whom, in the
warmth of Mary's ardor, it had almost
begun to offer hope, and he said mus
ingly: 81 wonder if it could be done?
If it could-if we could reach New
Spain, we might build ourselves
home in the beautiful green mountains
and hide ourselves safely away from
all the world, in the lap of some cozy
valley, rich with natures bounteous
gift Of fruit and flowers, shaded from
the hot sun and sheltered from the
blasts, and live in little paradise all
our own. What glorious dream, but
it is only a dream, and we had better
awake from it!'
Brandon must have been insane.
"No, no! It is not dream" inter-
rupted downright determined Mary.

1T is not a dream. It shall be a real

our little house now nesting among the
hills, shaded by great spreading trees,
with flowers and vines and golden
fruit all about it, rich puma ged birds
and gorgeous butterflies. Oh, l can
hardly wait! Who would live in

reach such home and that, too, with
you?"
Here it was again. I thought that in
terview would be the death of me.
Brandon held his face in his hands
and then, looking up, said: 1T is only
a question of your happiness, and, hard
as the voyage and your life over there
would be, yet believe it would be bet
ter than life with Louis of France.
Nothing could be so terrible as that to
both of US. If you wish to go, will
! try to take you, though 1 die in the
attempt. There will be ample time to
reconsider, SO that you can turn back

Her reply was inarticulate, though
| satisfactory, and she took his hand in
hers as the tears ran gently down her
cheeks, this time tears Of joy, the first
she had shed for many day.

He had known that if he should but
see her once more his already topping
will would lose it's equipoise, and he
would be led to attempt the impossible

scheme appeared to me in it's true

made it seem such plain and easy sail

half argumentative, all pleading, so
wonderfully persuasive. Her facts
We're mere fancies, and her logic was
not even good sophistry. AS to real

nothing of either in them. It must

There was still another obstacle to
which Mary administered her favorite
remedy, the Gordian knot treatment.

After little hesitation she answer
ed: Il will go with you anyway and

her throat to her hair.
Brandon kissed her and said: ''You
shall go, my brave girl. You make me
blush for my faint heartedness and
prudence. l will make you my wife in
some way as sure as there is a Cod"
Soon after this Brandon forced him
self to insist on her departure, and 1
went with her, full Of hope and CON-
pletely blinded to the dangers of our
cherished scheme. l think Brandon
never really lost sight of the danger
and almost infinite proportion of chance
against this wild, reckless venture, but
was daring enough to attempt it even
in the face of such clearly seen and
deadly consequences.

self. Brandon cared only to fight where
there was a possible victory or ran
som, or prospect of some sort at least
of achieving success.
So every phase Of the question which
his good sense presented told Brandon,
whose passion was as ardent though
not so impatient as Mary's, that it
would be worse than foolhardy to try
to see her. He, however, had deter
mined to see her once more before he
left; but, as it could in all probability
be only once, he was reserving the
meeting until the last, and had written
Mary that it was their best and only
chance. ...
