CHAPTER XIII.
The Interview.

Premonition is an odd thing enough and
no distant relative of that sister art OF
prophecy which the ancients so Justly
esteemed. Evelyn knew no reason what
ever why her father should be offended by
the presence of Count Odin at the Manor
but none the less premonition warned her
that the meeting would not be unattended
by consequences of some import. In TINS
fear she had quilted the counts room d.
rectly DIR. Philips warned her that the
earTs carriage was in the courtyard; and
going out to the head of that short flight
of stairs by which you reach the banquet
ing hall, she waited there in no little ex-
pectation, afraid she knew not of what,
and yet quite sure that she had good reason
to be afraid. Down below, In the great
hall itself. she heard sound of voices
for the doctor had already begun his tale
and she tried to catch the sense of 1t. lis
tening particularly for any mention of
Count Odin's name. which must. she be-
leved. be the key to this strange riddle of
her adventure When her father approach
ed her, smiling and not ill-pleased she was
quite sure that the counts name had not
been mentioned nor was her surmise in
any way incorrect.
The earl came up the stairs with the air
and has heard a good Jest upon the very
threshold OF his house He wore a dark
tweed suit and his bronzed face, IL slightly
drawn by the fatigues of travel, wore, none
the less that benevolent air of content
which invariably attended the assurance
that all was well al Melbourne Hall Stoop-
ing to kiss Evelyn, he told her In word
that he was aware of the adventure and
found 1t amusing enough.
Yes the doctor has told me-. he began;
"a man and horse and a flying machine!
My dear girl, you must be careful. What
will the county say if we go on like this

She interrupted him almost holly.
Doctor Philips should write books she
said quickly. I'VE had nothing whatever
to do with it. The horse boIted from More
town and raced up behind us 1 turned into
a field and saved the car. What nonsense
to say that II was our fault! Ask the
counts friend how 1t happened He has
been to London, but he will return tomor-
row. He tell you all about it, father.
I was too frightened at the time to know
exactly what did happen"
The earl. still believing that the doctors
incoherent jargon must have some truth in
it, paused, nevertheless, at the word

quickly.
He will tell you for himself" she re-
piled evasively. I'VE have given him the
chaplain's room. Please go there and ask
him how 1t was DR.. Philips has been ro-
mancing as usual"
The doctor came up to them while they
hearing her words. He certainly was a
poor hand at narrative, and his incoher-
ent account of the tragedy had left the
earl with no other idea than that Of Eve

which had attended II.

always putting my foot in 1t somewhere.
And a great big fiat foot too, my dear.
What did l tell him now? L said you were
returning from Derby and the horse bolted
wasn't II, now? Dear me. how very fool
ishl''
Evelyn did not hear him. They had
strolled together down the corridor and
witnessed the earl enter the sick mans
room, and now a sharp sound of voices
almost in anger came up TO them. On his
part DIR. Philips remained convinced that
the count had come into Derbyshire to see
Evelyn and that the earl had some knowl-
edge of the circumstances. Evelyn's alb
stracted manner seemed to bear him out
in this ridiculous idea. Pale and silent and
agitated she waited for the result of that
momentous interview. What had the two
sAe-a to say to each other? How much she
would have given to be able to answer that
question!
Your father knows something of the
count, I think?" the doctor ventured at
hazard while they waited.
She answered that she was unaware of
the circumstance.
81 have only seen this man twice In my
Hfe," she exclaimed with growing impa-
thence. IF you are writing his biography,
doctor, really am worse than useless.
He looked at her amazed. This man
Surely there was nothing romantic about
that. Writing his biography. My dear

mand If we have met in London, so shall
II be. If we are strangers when your
father is come back, that also l will be
ready to remember. Command my silence
or my words as you think for the best.
He accompanied the words with ges-
ture which would have made light OF the
whole affair-as though to say, This Is a
little thing. let us speak of something more
important" The act. however, did not De-
ceive Evelyn. Her former distrust of this
man returned with new force. She felt In
stinctively that she must pay price for
his silence; though she knew not, nor could
she imagine, what that price must be. And,
more than this, she rebelled already against
the penalties of deception. The net in
whose meshes her daring had caught her
was a net Of equivocation which must de-
grade while 1t endured.

been but Destiny which brough her face TO

almost into his arms and revealed her
name to him? But for that chance en-
counter, her secret might have remained
her own to the end. She did not fear her
secret now, but a great mystery. the story
of her fathers life (she knew not what Il
might BEL told abroad to the world, to his
shame and her own. Not in vain had she
lived these years Of a close intimacy with
one who could not much as bear the
word youth mentioned in his presence.
There had been past in the earfs life,
OF that she was convinced-and this man,
she said had come to the Manor to accuse
him It remained for her to take up arms
against him-she my Lady Evelyn, the re-
cluse the captive of selfish idea.

personal issue between herself and the
