CHAPTER VIII.


One bright, frosty day in January,
when the icicles shone in the sun and the
blue sky was cloudless, the open carriage
of Lady Avon drew up at the rectory
gate. After the marriage of Mr.. Baum
garten Lady Avon had occasionally at
tended Little Whitton church as hereto
fore, but L2dy Grace never. She had al
ways excuses ready, and her mother
who had never fathomed. or even suspect

countess declined TO alight, and Mr..
Baumgarten went out to the gate.
Would it be troubling you very much,
Mr.. Baumgsrten, to come to Avon House
occasionally and pass an hour with me?'
began she, as they shook hands.
Certainly not, II you wish it," he re-
piled. IF can render you any service
/ shall be very happy to come"
Lady Avon lowered her voice and bent
toward him. II am not happy in my
mitd, Mr.. Baumgarten; not easy. The
present world is passing away from me,
and I know little of the one am enter
ing. don't like the rector of Great
Whitton; he does not suit me; but with

"I will do so. But I hope you find
nothing more than usual the matter with
your health"
''Time will prove" replied Lady Avon.

"I should like to see him, yes: but I

and gave her his arm up the path, and
the most comfortable chair by the parlor
fire. The child was brought in by Dinah

Never had Lady Avon seen or suspect
ed aught of the case regarding her daugh-
ter and Mr.. Baumgarten.
The revelation came upon her with a
blow. 1t was Grace who, calling up her
courage, impaired it. Lady Avon went
into storm of anger; and then, finding
her commands and reproaches produced
no impression upon Grace for good, wrote
in haste for Lord Avon.
An awful thing had happened, and he
must come without a moments delay, wac
what she curtly wrote; and the word
awful" be it understood, was in those
days used only in its extreme sense, not,
as at present, in ridiculous lightness. Lord
Avon obeyed.
"Ah," he remarked, as he sat listening
to his mothers tale. II can now under
stand that past capricious trick Grace
played. She must even then have been
in love with Baumgarten."
Lady Avon sat in bitter modification.
What is to be done?" she asked.
''The best plan, so far as l can see, will
be to put good face upon it, and let
her have him."
DO you approve of him for your broth
er-in-law, pray?"
mo, not altogether. My sister and
your daughter ought to have made a very
different match. But you know what
Grace is, mother; and circumstances alter
cases."
1t was the plan pursued. 1t was the
only pleasant plan, as Lord Avon had
put it, that could be pursued. For Lady
Grace held to her own will, and Opposi.
ton would only have created scandal.
