to return to the Haytian government
large sums of money alleged to. have

The German minister demanded that
this transaction, as well as others no

"yOu do not tell me that you forgive CAo
past. Grace, say but one word; say FO1
love me"
Far deeper than another ever did"
she murmured. "Oh, Rylsl will be
more to you than she can have been I"
Grace, pardon my folly" he implored.
Il am doing wrong; I have forgotten my
self strangely. Forgive, forgive me 1t
is madness to aspire to you. have no
right to seek to drag you down from
your rank to my level"
But she chung to him still. "YOur own
wife, Tour own dear wife," she whispered.
"Ryle, Ryle; only love me forever"
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 reproachea produced
no impression upon Grace for good, wrote
in haste for Lord Avon.
An awful thing had happened, and he
must come without moments delay, was
what she ourtly wrote; and the word
aWAulJ Do IL unQeFSpOOQS was IN LnOSG
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 eapriclous trick Grace
played. She must even then have been
in love with Baumgarten."
Lady Avon sat In bitter modification.
What is to be doneT' she asked.
THE best plan, SO far as can see, will
be to put good face upon 1t, and let
her have him"
do you approve of him for your broth
er-in-law, pray"
mo, not altogether. Ny 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-
tion would only have created scandal.
