Father Sebastian, the rector of the Passionist
community established at Creighton St. Marys,
of the loveliest villages in the midland counties
of England sat in his barely furnished cell at his
writing table one dull misty morning of November.
The mail had just come in and he opening his
letters slowly His kind, grave face changed little
in expression as he glanced through their contents,
until he took up the last envelop, which bore for
eign postmark. Then he smiled as if with pleasant
anticipation. She has written already" he said
half aloud
Father Sebastian was half Italian by BIRTH and
had lived long abroad. He loved the sun, and
missed it terribly in England. But this letter
from dear friend Engishwoman whose spir-
itua director he had been and whom he had re-
gone to the south on their honeymoon, and here
already of her. But when he looked at
the letter his face changed. Amusement, grief,
chased away the smile that had lit it up The
letter dated five days before from the Hotel
Royal at Naples and was short:

That day Father Sebastian found it difficult to
attend to his duties to fix his attention upon
his devotions. Familiar he was with human
tragedies, he had been amazed by this letter What
could have occurred between the newly made wife
and husband to bring about this abrupt return
this fight-of the woman he had made wife only
three weeks before, whose passionate love he had
consecrated, whose life he had mingled with the
life of the who loved her?
That night he prayed for them both. The fol- :
lowing evening he received summons from the
writer of the letter. She had arrived at neighbor
ing town, and was staying at the inn there. Can
you come to me here?" she wrote in pencil. after
all, am ashamed to go to Creighton ST. Marys."

venerable horse of the Passionsts to be put into
