CHAPTER II,

The Rev. Cyrus Dane had been many
years rector Of Little Wilton; at his
death, Mr.. Baumgarten was appointed.
Mrs. Dane was left with 4 very slender
provision, derived from an annuity. Her
husband had been quite unable to save
money. The needs Of his parish, the
education Of his two daughters, and the
expenses Of living had utterly absorbed
his stipend. and kept him sadly poor.
So poor that the necessary repairs Of
the rectory from year to year had never
been attended to, and when he died II
was In . woeful state Of dilapidation.
The eldest Of his daughters. Charlotte,
had married George Brice, a nephew of
Brice the surgeon; he was the Junior
partner in a shipping house and lived in
London.
When Mr.. Baumgarten arrived to take
possession of his new living, he found
the rectory perfectly uninhabitable. Mrs.
Dane had moved out of 1t to Wilton
Cottage, and 1t was arranged that he
should take up his residence with her,
paying q certain sum for his board. 1t
was comfortable arrangement for the
young clergyman, and 1t was help to
Mrs. Dane. He had not the means to
put the rectory into repair, and was
told that he must 60 upon the late rec
tors widow to do 1t; that she was liable,
as In fact she was. But Mr.. Baumgar-
ten could not and would not do that.
She had not the means to restore 1t any
more than he had. So things were left
a. they were to drift, and he made him
self happy and contented at Wilton
Cottage. He had just entered now upon
the second year of his residence with
them; during which Mrs. Dane had been
seized with a slow and lingering illness,
which must In time terminate fatally.
Thrown together In daily intercourse
an attachment had sprung mp between
the young rector and Edith Dane; a con.
cealed attachment: for he considered 'hli
circumstances barred his marriage, and
she hid her feelings as a matter Of course
He was an ambitious man, q proud man
though perhaps not quite conscious of It
and to encounter the expenses Of a fam
lily household upon small means appeared
to him more to be Stunned than any ad
verse fate on earth. Mr.. Baumgarter
was Of gentle birth, but he had not any
private fortune or near relatives; he ha(
In fact no connections whatever to pusl
him forward In the church. For all b,
could see now, he might live and die a
this poor living, and he did not like tn,
prospect.
They soon reached Wilton Cottage
