CHAPTER VIII.

And now the quick march of events
brings us to the night of the dance at
The Cedars, which was to confront for
the first time on one stage the chief
characters in this little drama.
Dinner for the house party was over
at $3.50, and by nine o'clock the invited
guests from the nearby countryside
began to arrive. Among the first flight
was the party from Denecroft-Stella
and Sir Arthur, Marcia Churchill and
Richard.
The historic old picture gallery,
which was to be devoted to the dan
Gins, was already well-filled, and Ros-
sitter Kane stood at the entrance to re-
ceive' his guests in company with a
voung-old dowager, Lady Agatha Kim
gan, who had consented to chaperon
the house party, seeing that the host
was a bachelor.
A typical English butler, rubicund
of face, portly in form, and with ire
proachable natural underpinning, an
nounced the arrivals, and when in
pompous tones he vociferated:
"Sir Harthur Dysart and Miss Dy-
sart, Mr.. Richard Dysart and Miss
Churchill" it needed all Kane's self
control to compose his features and his
manner to the requisite standard Of
polite and genial interest. II

Philadelphia on February 22, 1903,
showed strong imaginative sympathy
with his subject, has made an exhaus-
tive study of the heredity, circum-
stances, and events which fitted the
son Of a Virginia planter for one of
the greatest careers in history. DR..
Mitchell imagines Washington sitting
down at Mount Vernon in his old age
and recording, solely for his own eve.

influences IN that affected it for good or

into the habit Of mind of Washington
that it is impossible for the ordinary
reader to separate in the text the pas

this record without obtaining new
