the diminutive of Patricia, and it
seemed very fitting, and as delightful
as the dear little woman herself. She
must have caught my smile as the
niece so addressed her for the first
time and she smiled back at me in her
charming fashion.
"Tou are an Irishman, Mr.. Donovan,
and Pat must sound natural"
"Oh, all who love Aunt Patricia call
her Aunt Pat!" exclaimed the girl
Then Miss Holbrook undoubtedly
hears it often" said /, and was at
once sorry for my bit of blarney, for
the tears shone suddenly in the dear
brown eyes, and the niece recurred to
the summer landscape as topic, and
talked of the Glenarm place, whose
stone wall we were now passing, un-
til we drove into the grounds of St.
Agatha's and up to the main entrance
of the school, where a sister in the
brown garb of her order stood wait
ing.
l first introduced myself to Sister
Margaret, who was in charge, and
then presented the two ladies who
were to be her guests. Sister Marga-
ret said just the right thing to every
one, and / was glad to find her so
capable a person, fully able to care
for these exiles without aid from my
side of the wall.
Helen, If you will see our things
disposed of l will detain Mr.. Donovan
few minutes" said Miss Holbrook.
"Or can come again in an hour-I
am your near neighbor," | remarked,
thinking she might wish to rest from
her journey.
Il am quite ready" she replied, and
| bowed to Helen Holbrook and to Sis
ter Margaret, who went out, followed
by the maid. Miss Pat-you will par
don me If | begin at once to call her
by this name, but IL fits her so capi-
tally, ii is so much a part of her, that
| cannot resist-Miss Pat put of her
bonnet without fuss, placed 1t ON the
table and sat down in window seat
whence the nearer shore of the lake
was visible across the strip OF smooth
| lawn.
"Will you please close the door,?
she said, and when / came back to the
window she began at once.
1T is not pleasant, as you must
understand, to explain to a stranger
an intimate and painful family trouble
But Father Stoddard advised me to be
quite frank with you"
THAT is the best way, If there is a
possibility that | may be of service, .
l said in the gentlest tone / could
command. But tell me no more than
you wish. / am wholly at your serv
ice without explanations"
1T is in reference to my brother:
he has caused me a great deal oil
trouble. When my father died nearly
ten years ago-he lived to a great
age-he left a considerable estate, q
large fortune. A part of 1t was di
vided at once among my two brothers
and myself. The remainder, amount
ing to $1.000,000, was left to me, with
the stipulation that | was to make 6
further division between my brothers
at the end of ten years, or at my dis
cretion. l was older than my broth
ers, much older, and my father left
me with this responsibility, not know
ing what 1t would lead to. Henry
and Arthur succeeded to my fathers
business, the banking firm of Hol
brook Brothers, in New York. The
bank continued to prosper for a time;
then Il collapsed suddenly. The debts
were all paid. but Arthur disappeared
there were unpleasant rumors--"

like tint, and even the suitcase near
est her struck the same note of color
There was no doubt whatever as to
her identity; l did not hesitate a mo-
ment; the lady in brown was Miss
Holbrook, and she was an old lady. a
dear, bewitching old lady, and as /
stepped toward her. her eyes bright
ened-they, too, were brown!-and
she put out her brown-gloved hand
with a gesture so frank and cordial
that l was won at once.
"Mr. Donovan-Mr Laurance Dono-
van-I am sure OF it,"
Miss Holbrook-I am equally con-
fident!" l said. 81 am sorry to be late,
but Father Stoddard's message was
delayed"
you are kind to respond at all"
she said, her wonderful eyes upon
me; but Father Stoddard said you
would not fail me-"
He is a man of great faith But
l have a trap waiting. We can talk
more comfortably at st. Agatha's."
"Yes; we are to go to the school.
Father Stoddard kindly arranged it.
1t is quite secluded, he assured me-"
You will not be disappointed, Miss
Holbrook, if seclusion is what you
seek"
/ picked up the brown bag and
turned away, but she waited and
glanced about. Her I'VE" had puzzled
me; perhaps she had brought a maid,
and l followed her glance toward the
window of the telegraph office.
"Oh, Helen my niece, Helen Hol-

have explained-that II is partly On

gave me my instructions" | laughed.
"He gives orders in a most militant
fashion"
In a moment l had been presented
to the niece, and had noted that she
was considerably above her aunt's
height; that she was dark, with eyes
that seemed quite black in certain
lights, and that she bowed, as her
aunt presented me, without offering
her hand, and murmured my name In
voice musical, deep and full, and
agreeable to hear.
She took their checks from her
purse, and / called the porter and
arranged for the transfer of their bag
gage to st. Agathas. We were soon
in the trap with the bays carrying us
at a lively clip along the lake road.
There's a summer resort some.
where on the lake; how far is that
from the school?" asked the girl.
That's Port Annandale. It's two
or three miles from st. Agatha's,"
replied. "On this side and all the
way to the school there are farms
Port Annandale lies yonder."
"Of course we shall see nothing OF
It," said the younger Miss Holbrook
with finality.
/ sought in vain for any resem
blance between the two women; they
were utterly unlike. The little brown
lady was interested and responsive
enough; she turned toward her niece
with undIsguised affection as we
talked, but caught several times q
look OF unhappiness in her face, and
the brow that Time had not touched
gathered in lines of anxiety and care
The girls manner toward her aunt
was wholly kind and sympathetic.
