What argument Ulick would have

could reply the murmur Of q voice heal

They discerned, in the shadow OF the

passed through the wicket into the
garden.
Inc strangers saw tnem at the same

surprise. The foremost of the two, a
sturdy, w~eatherbeaten man, with a
square, stern face and a look of power,
laid his hand on his cutlass-he wore
a broad blade in place of the usual
rapier. The other, whom every line Of
his shaver face, as well as his dress,
proclaimed a priest-and perhaps more
thar a priest-crossed himself and
muttered something to his companion.
Then lie came forward.
You take the air early, gentlemen
he said, the French accent very plain
in his speech, "as we do. If / mistake
not" he continued, looking with an
easy smile at Colonel John, your

fallen upon Morristown and imbued it
with life.
He caught the sound OF voices in the
house, and he turned about and N

Uncle Uhck warming themselves be-

Colonel John looked closely at the

1T may be. Still. let US do our duty"
Colonel John replied. He was very
grave. Things were worse. the plot
was thicker, than he had feared.
Uncle Ulick groaned. you'll not be
bidden?" he said.
MOT by an angel" Colonel John an
swered, steadfastly. And I've seen
none this morning. but only a good
man whose n fault in life Is to answer
to all men. Sure. and l WIFI"
Uncle Ulick started as If the words
stung him. You make a jest of it,"
he said. Heaven send we do not sor-
row for you willfulness. For my part,
I've small hope Of that same" He
opened the door, and, turning his back
upon his companions, went heavily and
without any attempt at c~onceal1nent,
past the pantry and up the stairs to
his room.
To answer yes to all corners and
all demands is doubtless, in the Ian
guage of Uncle Ulick. a mighty
fence and a great softener OF the
angles of life. But a time comes to the
most easy when he must answer mo"
or go open eyed to ruin. Then he finds
that. from long disuse, the word will
not shape itself; or, If uttered, it is
taken for naught. That time had come
for Uncle Ulick. Years ago his age
n experience had suf1ced to curb the
hot blood about him. But he had been
too easy to dictate while he might, and
today he must go the young folks
way. seeing all too plainly the end
of it.
But Colonel John was Of another
kind and another mind. Often In the
Swedish wars had he seen a fair
try-side changed in one day into a
waste, from the recesses Of which
naked creatures with wolfish eyes stole
out at night, maddened by their
wrongs, to wreak a horrid vengeance
on the passing soldier. He knew that
the fairest parts of Ireland had UNDER
gone such a fate within living memory.
Therefore he was firmly minded, as one
man could be. that not again should
the corner Of Kerry under his eyes, the
corner he loved, the corner entrusted
to him, suffer that fate.
Yet, when he descended to break
fast, his face told no tale of his
thoughts, and he greeted with a smile
the unusual brightness of the morning.
Nor. as he sunned himself and inhaled
with enjoyment the freshness of the
air, did any sign escape him that he
marked a change.
But he was not blind. Among the
