Country Inn.
On one occasion Rousseau composed
an opera. which was performed be-
fore King Louis XIV. and met with
the royal approval The king sent for
him. and If he had put in an appear
ance he would probably have obtained
a pension. He was. however, of re-
firing disposition and could not bring
himself to face the court. TO his
friends he gave as a reason his repub-
lican opinions, but his real reason was
his shyness.
Accordingly he fed from the court
and sought the privacy Of country
inn. While he was there man came
in who began telling the company
that he was the celebrated Rousseau
and proceeded to give an account Of
the opera. which, he said. had been
performed before the king with great
success.
Most men in Rousseau's position
would have felt nothing but contempt

months before the final departure Of
the British power from the city.
So he must have possessed a measure
of shrewdness with his obstinacy and
a spirit not to be crushed by affliction.
He had daughter, Marjory. who
had inherited her mothers beauty and
her fathers indomitable courage, per
haps some of his obstinacy as well, for
when there came at last Il difference Of
opinion between them she did not
yield even to his iron will.
The cause of this difference was n
handsome young officer of the guards.
a soldier of the king, and therefore in
the eyes of Lynde a natural enemy.
But lie was not Il natural enemy In the
eyes Of Marjory. He was an officer and
gentleman, doing his duty as his
conscience commanded and his circuln-
stances permitted
Marjory was a patriot, but she was
a woman, and it seemed reasonable
enough to her that Captain Asgill
should be good man, while every
other British soldier was an abhorretl
invader and the minion of Il tyrant.
She was not swayed by personal
preference for Captain Asgill. she as
surad her father, but simply by her
sense of justice.

She had seen her mother fade and

into!erable situation, as much vic.

dier slain in battle. Her two brothers
had served in the patriot armies, and
one had died of sickness and the other
of wound.
But Marjory knew or felt that Cap

these Ills, or at least she could not fee
that he was, and she did not reliD
