aloud in the streets. And though James Wolfe had fallen on the Plains of Abraham before Quebec and died m that wonderful oonsummation or ms career. his end was % glorious than men dared hardly deplore that enc. The whole nation rose up and ielt lt- self the stronger for James Woites cause q chariot had come from the skies to fetch him away9
 On every soldier who had fought with him fell a share of reflected glory and honest George Warrington felt happier in the homage that was paid to him now as Harry's brother than ne had ever felt when he was hattered as the Heir to Virginia.
 Georges heirship to the broad es- tatea in America, to be sure, did not profit him much at this time. He had spent ainost all his 5000 pounds-part- iy for Harry, and partly for supplies that he had sent to the plantations at the orders of Mme. Esmond. That lady, deeply grieved at poor Harrys loss of the crown Gas if, thought George sadly, "shc were sorry that came back') was pincnlnG ana scrap ing to save enough money to buy her younaest son an estate. She declined to pay the bills Incurred for her, de- claring that they were for the better. ment of the property. which would come to George any way. And George Warrington wrote nothing Of having paid Harry's debts in reply, but quiet- ly set to work to find a wy to live.
 Very fooiishly, he had to fali m tove' and with a poor girl, General Lam bert's daughter. At the news the Princess Pocahontae famed out h roy- al anger and sent SO bitter letter that General Lambert sadly told George he must forget hIs daughter. Whereupon George and Theo. of course, got mar ried secretly and then obtained the Generals forgiveness.
 T shall never give anyoody advise on marriage" said George Warrington In after years. ''our own was SO ex- ceedlngly imprudent and turned out so exceptionally happy"
 But they had no cakes and ale in those early years. The Princess Poca- hontas cut George adrift In royal wrath. and Harry. never dreamed but that his brother had plenty. Mean time that brother was living by writ ing magazine articles and plays.
 It was short commons for him and his beautiful Theo. borne through many many years with pa6ience and courage and hope. Then one day the King died, and the royal death changed Georges whole life, for Sir Miles War rington caught cold at the funeral and followed his monarch. So George Warrington's lawyer came to him one morning and addressed him as Sir George, and poor George Warrington. playwriter. became Sir George War rInKton. with four thousand of the richest acres in Norfolk.
 To Sir George, when he did not need 1t, came Madam Esmond's forgiveness and her prayer that she might see her son and daughter ere she died.
 Many years passed. however. before Sir George finally went to Virgtnia- He found a different Amertca than the gun to confiscats the tea imported from England rather than pay the tax. The Lees. the Randolphs. the Wash- inRtons. even Harry Warrington. much to the wrath of that uncompromising loyaIist, his mother had signed re- beliious proclamations.
 Tn the face of her neighbors she in- sisted on Haunting her royaiist opinions and at every opportunity she cried. ''God save the King!" till the mob at tackled her town house in Richmond and drove her to seek refuge in Castle wood, where she held forth as doughti- ly as ever.
 George did not share his mothers un- reasoning hatred of the colonial side. He saw the mischief that English politicians, ard. chief of all. the Eng fish King haS done. But he thought the colonies were wrong for all that. and though he wanted to go back to Norfolk again. he felt that duty forced him to stay in his native land and up- hold Engiand's cause.
 One day Harry Warrington rode north to join General Washington Soon came Lexington; and the prov inces. with a thrill of wrath and fury. heard of the blood drawn there. -ne VirRinian farmers and country folk
