 On his part it was exaggerating a mere contact of mutual feelings into dangerous collision. He was as much self deceived as was she, and he made more noise about 1t.
 'tTt is you who have misunderstood me-" she replied, smiling brightly now, but with just, faint, pitiful touch of regret or self blame lingering in her voice. Father Beret said you would did not believe him, but
 "And you shall not believe him. said Beverley. q have not misunderstood you. There has been nothing. You have treated me kindly and with beau tifuI friendliness.

 He seemed to be falling into the hab- 1t of speaking to her in English. She understood it somewhat imperfectly, es- pecially when in an earnest moment he rushed his words together as if they had been soldiers he was leading at the charge step against an enemy His manner convinced her even though his diction fell short.
 "Then we'll talk about something else," she said, laughing naturally now and retreating to chair by the hearth side. T want you to tell me all about yourself and your family, your homo and everything"
 She seated herself with an air of con. scious aplomb and motioned him to , take distant stool.
 There was great heap of dry logs in the fireplace, with pointed flames shoot ing out of it's crevices and leaping into the gloomy, caveIike throat of the Hue. Outside a wind passed heavily across the roof and beloved in the chimney top
 Beverley drew the stool near Alice, who with q charred stick used as a poker was thrusting at the glowing creyices and sending showers of sparks aloft
 "Why, there wouldn't be much to tell" he said, glad to feel secure again. "Our home is big old mansion named Beverley Hall, on hill among trees and half surrounded with slave cabins. It overlooks the plantation in the val.
