ter. widow and childlcss. The others
were a Mrs. Loring and her daughter
Amy and young man named Ballard
Dillon. Randall had been a cavalry
officer in the civil war and in those
days capable of romantic friendships.
Mrs. Loring was the widow OF com
rade in arms. Dillon was the son OF
another. The lady had been left with
some small means in trust with Ran
dali. Dillon was penniless orphan
who had fallen into the lap of lux .
when Bryce first saw her. She
seemed to him very pretty and well
bred girl and nothing more.
The first warning that Bryce re
ceived came from Randall at the
house one evening. Amy and Dillon
happened to be standing together in Il
good light and accidentally posed with
some artistic value.
"A handsome couple" said Randall,
who was an admirer of personal beau
ty, like most other people who have
been blessed with share of it.
1t was not long after this that Ran
dali conveyed to Bryce definitely the
intelligence that Amy and Dillon were
intended for each other. Increasing
misery was Bryce's portion from that
hour, and the word lucky" coupled
with his name was bitter mockery.

loves him not. All debts are Cancelled,
all gratitude vanishes, the wisdom of
wise counselors is folly, the dictates
of worldly prudence are as rash as
madness, If they urge toward marriage
without love.
Such was Bryce's philosophy. and
you may imagine his feelings at the
spectacle presented in Randalls home.
Mrs. Loring and Randall were crea.
lures of Interchangeable decision. They
had decided upon this marriage long
ago. The idea of 1t had grown into
their bones. AS for Amy. she had
known Dillon since her childhood and
had liked him and dislked him and
quarreled with him and made 1t up.
The girl exerted a strong attraction
upon Dillon, and there were moments
when he fancied himself deeply In
love with her These were the mo
ments of encouragement when he
seemed to see n way out of the trou-
bles into which he had fallen of late
years through course of elaborate
duplicity and secret extravaganza.
Fer the most part he had too many
worries to think Of love. His pillow
was not haunted by images Of beauty.
He saw Shylocks and shysters and the
wolfish faces of third rate Wall street
brokers, and even the helmeted po-
liceman and grim visaged jaller fig
ured In the worst of his visions.
Dillon's situation and character were
unknown to Bryce, who charged his
constantly recurring doubt Of the
mans probity to the promptlngs OF
Jealousy. He did not deny to himself
that he was jealous and was not
ashamed of it so long as 1t did not be-
tray him to any dishonor.
In June Of the third year of his CON
nection with Randall occurred the
trial of an important case. A pot of
money was on the table, and the is
sues reached far beyond the visible
take. Bryce had prepared carefully
