walter" she said, sit is all very well
for me to look for my family among
the peerage. It's like a pretty fairy
story. But there are my real father
and mother. They have given their
lives to me. And | never will go into
a family which does not receive and
honor them. IL never will marry a
man." here she began to sob, who
will not love them as l do"
On which there was much crying
among the women, and many prom
ises and protestations from Walter.
Old Sandy McGinn was annoyed by

the years to come the old woman's
face must have been happier because

1 am sorry-but this is the end of
my story. There was no dramatic de-
movement No peer nor prince ever
appeared to place a coronet on James
brows. She became the mother and
grandmother of large family of cap
able, energetic men and women, who
now are scattered through many
States. In each family there is a leg
end, more or less definite, of noble an
cestry. Some of the younger people
have a crest and coat of arms, and are
ready to claim their progenitors among
the great heroes in English OF French
history. But Jane died with her rid
