The disputed writing

! IN the terrors caused by the dread
event at the Moore house, which re-
| called old tragedies and emphasized a
most unhappy family tradition"
| The coroner paused a moment to let
| these words sink into the ears OF the
/ jury, then plunged Immediately into
| what might be called the offensive part
of his examination.
"Why, IL your wifes death caused
you such intense grief, did you appear
so relieved at receiving this by no
means consoIing explanation?"
At an implication SO Enthusiastically
suggestive of suspicion Mr.. Jeffrey
showed fire for the first time.
Whose word have you for that? A

that her very features are still strange
to me. You must acknowledge that a
person of such marked inexperience
can hardly be thought to know me or
to interpret rightly the feelings Of my
heart by any passing look she may
have surprised upon my face"
This attitude of defiance so suddenly
assumed had an effect he little realized.
Miss futile stirred for the first time
behind her veil and Uncle David, from
looking bored became suddenly quite
attentive. These two but mirrored the
feelings of the general crowd, and mine
especially.
1--WE do not depend on her judgment
alone" the coroner now remarked.
1.-THE change in you was apparent to
many others. This we can prove to
the jury if they require it,
But, no man lifting voice from that
gravely attentive body. the coroner
proceeded to inquire il Mr.. Jeffrey felt
like volunteering any explanations on
this head. Receiving no answer from
him either, he dropped the suggestive
line of inquiry and took up the consid-
Grafton Of facts. The first question he
now put was:
Where did you find the slip Of pa
per containing these last words from
your wife,
shelf in our room upstairs. When Lo-
retta gave me my wife's message I
knew that 1 should find some word
from her in the novel we had just been
reading. AS we had been interested in
but one book since our marriage. there
was no possibility of my making any
mistake as TO which one she referred.
viii you give US the name of this
novel?"
Compensation
"And you found this book called
Compensation in your room upstairs?"
Yes"
"On the bookseller
yes"
Where does this bookshelf stand?"
Mr.. Jeffrey looked up as much as to
say. why so many small questions
about so simple matter?" but an
swered frankly enough:
lat the right Of the door leading
into the bedroom
And at right angles to the door lead
ing into the hall:"

"Tney are"
The coroner pressed the slip upon
him.
Look at them carefully" he urged.
The handwriting shows hurry and in
places is scarcely legible. Are you
ready to swear that these words were
written by your wife and by no
other?"
Mr. jeffrey. with just a slight con-
traction OF his brow expressive Of an
noyance. did as he was bid He scan
ned, or appeared to scan, the small
scrap Of paper which he low took into
his own hand.
'It is my wife's writing" he impa-
tiently declared; written. as all can
see. under great agitat ton of mind, but
hers without any doubt"
''Will you read aloud these words for
our beneft?' ed the coroner
The lines he was thus called upon to
read may bear repetition:
I find tina. do not love you as
thought. / cannot live knowing this to be
Pray God you may forgive me,
VERONICA
As the last word fell with a little
tremble from Mr.. Jeffrey's lips the
coroner repeated:
You still think these words were ad-
dressed to you by your wife; that in
short they contain an explanation OF
her death"
II do"
There was sharpness in the tone. Mr..
jeffrey was feeling the prick. There
was agitation in it. too: an agitation
he was trying hard to keep down.
You have reason, then" persisted
the coroner, "for accepting this pecul-
lar explanation of your wife's death.
a death which, In the judgment Of most
people, was Of a nature to call for the
strongest provocation possibleT'
my wife was not herself. My wife
was in an overstrained and suffering
condition. For one SO nervously over
wrought many allowances must be
made. She may have been conscious
of not responding fully to my affec-
ton. That this feeling was strong
enough to induce her to take her life
is a source of unspeakable grief to
me, but one for which you must find
explanation, as / have 50 often said,
