hid his treasure. The cautious Vollins
had prepared receipt for him to sign,
made out in the name of Frances
Wentworth, but DE Courcy demurred;
1t was all very well for the counting
house, he said, but not in the highest
society. The Earl of STAFFORD would
he the first to object to such a course,
he insisted.
Frances herself tore the paper in
pieces and said that n signature was
not necessary, while Nollins made no
further protest. She implored De
Courcy in a whispered adieu TO acquit
faithfully the commission with which
her father had intrusted him, and he
assured her that he was now confident
of success, thanking her effusively fol
the capable conduct of a difficult mat
ter of diplomacy. Then, with sweep
ing gesture of obeisance, he took his
courteous departure.
| Mr.. Vollins deferentially asked Fran
ces to sign receipt which he had writ
ten, acknowledging the payment of {
thousand pounds, and to this documen
she hurricd,y attached her signature.

Imminent

Irish, resolved on the subjugation or
England. Next, the queen had called
on France for aid. and an invasion was
imminent
So there was much secret prepara-
ton, drilling and the concealing Of
arms against the time they should be
urgently needed, and much galloping
to and fro; Il stirring period for tho
young, an anxious winter for the old,
and Thomas Wentworth was in the
thick of 1t I'LL, mystcriously departing,
unexpectedly returning, always more
foolishly important than there was any
occasion for. Yet had he in him the
making Of Il man who was shortly to
be tried by fire and steel when greater
wisdom crowned him than was at pres
ent the case.
Since the letter she had received on
the night OF his arrest, the daughter
heard no word from the father. Had
no again forgotten, or were his mes
sages Intercepted? She did not know
and was never to know. She had writ
ten to him. saying she had obeyed him,
her letter had reached its destination.
Thus she waited and waited, gnawing
impotence and dread chasing the rose
from her cheeks. until she could whit
no longer. Her horse and the south
ern rond were at ller disposal, with
none to hinder, SO she set forth for
London, excusing herself for thus in
spirit breaking her fathers command
by the assurance that he had not for
hidden her return.
She avoided her fathers mansion,
knowing that Lady STAFFORD and her
children were now in residence there,
and went to the inn where she had for
merly lodged. She soon learned that it
was one thing to 80 to London and
quite another to obtain entrance to
Westminster hall. where the great trial,
now approaching Its end was the fash
ionable magnet Of the town. No place
Of amusement ever collected such audi
ences, and, although money will over.

CHAPTER VII.

~ nee out III the open mir, Fran
ces Wentworth came again
II into control Of herself, asham-
ed that for the moment her
emotions had overwhelmed her. She
had no desire to re-cnter Westminster
hall even If the doorkeepers would
have permitted her, SO she wandered
slowly back to the inn which was her
temporary home. In the evening John
Vollins came to see her and offered
money, which. she told him, she did
not need. Ho gave some account Of
Pym's speech and said that the COM
mons had not asked the lords for judy
ment. which was taken by STAFFORD
and his friends as an Indication that
they knew the weakness of the evil
dencc and feared the effect of his lord
ships speech In his own defense.
The refusal to ask for Judgment was
regarded as good omen, and for some
days Frances felt the revival of hope,
when she could forget the grim figure
Of John Ppm, but the commons speed
lily disillusioned the Straffordian party.
A bill of nttainder was brought in, and
they showed their determination to
have the head of the unfortunate earl
by net of parliament If not by legal
procedure. AT last the bill, passing
Its third reading, was sent up to the
house Of lords. There were many who
said the lords would never assent to it;
that the commons should have asked
for Judgment Mt the close of the trial;
that If they could not hope to have the
verdict as they wanted it then it was
not likely the lords would allow them
selves to be cozened by side wind
now. These predictions We're quickly

Once again the center OF attention

rows Of soldiers took their stand oppo-

between, and slowly up this passage.
with four secretaries and some half
dozen others behind him, came bowed
and pallid figure dressed in black, a

become gaunt since its wear began.
'"That is the Earl Of Stanford" whis-

he stood in his place for moment,
and bowed to his judges, but gave no
sign that he had knowledge Of the ex-
istence Of his accusers, and the girl
began to doubt II the old arrogance
had, after all, entirely departed from
him. Then, leaning heavily on the arm
Of one Of his secretaries. he sank into
his scat and closed his eyes rs II the
short walk from tho barge to tho hall
Of Judgment had been too much for
him. AS he sat thus there stole down
to him n boy leading two children.
Strafford's eyes opened. and he smiled
wanly upon them, put an arm around
the boys neck and fondled the girls to
his knee, both Of whom were weeping
quietly.
"Who-who are those?" gasped Fran
ces, yet knowing while she asked, and
feeling n pang, half jealousy, half pain.
that she must hold aloof unnoticed.

CHATTER VI.

E<RANcEs made her way to the
north, as her father had direct
ed, and everywhere found the
news of his arrest in advance of
her-the country ab.aze with excitement
because of it. The world would go
well once STAFFORD was laid low. He
had deluded and misled the good king,
rs Buckingham did before him. Buck
ingham had fallen by the knife; STRAIT
ford should fall by the AK. Then the
untrammced king would rule well;
Quietness and industry would succeed
this unhealthy period OF fever and UNI
| rest.
The girl was appalled, to meet every
where this intense hatred of her fa-
tier, and in her own home she was sur
rounded by it. Even her brother could
not be aroused to sympathy, for he re-
garded his father not only as n traitor
to his country, but as domestic de-
linqucnt also, who had neglected and
| deserted his young wife, leaving her to
J die uncontrolled without even a mes
| sage from the husband for whom she
had almost sacrificed her good name,
bearing accomplishing his absence and
her fathers wrath.

great affairs, as indeed he was, al
though he was too young to have much
influence in directing them. The land
