Dibbin shook his head like an emblem of doubt.

note in which she had made the appointment with
him at the grave. 1t was rather like the writing of
the note which he had found with the wreath-not
quite perhaps the And then again the
address which she had given him by word of mouth
that first evening at Kensal Green in Warwick
shire. He remembered that much, beyond doubt.
Was she, then, spending sometime with friends at
The Cedars in Gloucestershire? He thought
that it might be good thing, before sending the
diary, if he took down into Worcestershire
make sure that she really there.
This he did the next day, and found that The
Cedars' a mansion two miles from the village
of Birdlip, old, somewhat dsmantled, shut up,
occupied only by few retaners No Violet was
there He learned at of the village taverns that
the place was the property of van Hupfeldt He
took the diary back to London with him that same
night.
What seemed certain to him now was that van
Hupfedt himself agent of Hupfeldt's
must be in the Mordaunts house. and that his letter
sent through Dbbin had never reached Violet So
again he was cut off from her. Not one word could
he speak to her. He craved only for one small
word. When that marriage of hers with van Hup-
feldt was to take place he did not know but he felt

on the grave, and had once before written her to
say so, we'll to tell her that he had in his pos
session book which he believed to be the diary Of
her sister, He did care send it to her through
another; but would at once forward it on receiving
a line from her.
After two days came answer Miss Mordaunt
thanked Mr.. Harcourt extremely for his pains, and
would be glad to receive the book to which he re-
ferred at the above address," that address being
1.-The Cedars Birdlip, G1oucestershre."

to this address Then he paused. The hand

pose that she was in London all
the time? He wrote to her at
Dorchester Gardens that day, but
received no answer. Van Hupfeldt
had given orders that all letters
for the Mordaunts should be sent
to him; nor did he send on David's
letter to Violet, for he knew
David S writing. Moreover, he had
warned the proprietors at Por-
chester Gardens that a certain
man, who was likely to make him
self troublesome to the Mordaunts,
might present himself there in the
hope of learning their address IN
the country, in view of which they
had better give the address to no
one
Now, at David's only meeting
with Violet at the grave, she had
mentioned to him her country adj
dress; but, having heard it only
once and that heedlessly, when his
brain was full of new notions, it
had so far passed out of his mind
in the course of time, that all that
he could remember of it was that
it was in Warwickshire. Nor could
any racking of his brains bring
back more of it than the name
of the county. After some days
he betook himself to Dorchester
Gardens.

The Diary

THOR sometime after this disappearance of
II Violet, David needed the focusing of all
his manhood to set himself to work His
Il feeling was that nothing was worth While
He wished to sit in his easy chair stare,
and be vaguely conscious of the coming and going
of his charwoman. An old Londoner now, he no
longer heard the roar, nor stltied at the smoke
of that torment that goes up forever. He could
have sat over his fire in a sort of abstract state,
without thought, hope, or care for days. If he
up, and it proved medicinal. Little by little he
acquired tone.
Meantime he would often reread the note which
in the rpening of his mind the thought in him:
There's something queer here. She must have
been very agitated when she wrote this
Then he began to think that 1T was not quite
like Violets writing. Presently hope, energy, &C
ton, burst into blossom afresh within him Sup

taken upon himself to say to her
that it should never be, and not
one word could he utter to prevent
it. He had forgotten, and his
brain would not give up its dead.
He beat his brow upon his dining
room table where his head had
dropped YEARLY on his coming
home from the country.
To go to her, to tell her all, to
stop the indecent marriage, to cast
himself at her feet, and call upon
her pity for his passionate youth
this impulse drove him; but he
could not stir a step. A great
mo" bewitched him. His strain
ing was against ropes of steel.
Half thoughts, half inventions of
every impossible kind, passed like
smoke through his mind, and went
away, and came YEARLY again.
The only one of any likelihood
was the thought of kneeling to
Dibbin, of telling him that van
Hupfeldt was probably Strauss,
and beseeching him for the Nor
daunts' sake to give the address.
But he had not the least faith in
the success of such thing. To
that dried man, fossilized all
through. incrusted in agency, any,
thing that implied of a new de-
parture, new point of view, was
a thing impossible. His shake of
the head was as stubborn a fact
in nature as any Andes. There
was only the diary left-the diary
might contain the address!
David did not wish to open
those locked thoughts. He had
hardly the right; but, after
wholeday spent in cycling the book,
he laughed wildly, and decided.
1t was question of life, of several
lives. He put the book to his
lips, with a kiss of desperation,
inhaling its faded scent of violets.
At once he rushed out with it
to a tradesman skilled in locks,
and was surprised at the ease with
which the man shot back the tiny
lever with a bit of twisted wire
81 can make you key by the
morning." said the man, squirting
into the lock, and listening to its
action as he turned the wire in
his fingers. 1T is simple mech
