put 10 him with the direct simplicity OF
the American public through ite impe-

And 70 these questions Mr.. Langford

not bring himself 10 tell. He de-
clared that she had left the yacht in

his advantage. The lady who legally
bore his name departed this life and
left him free man. Brute though he
had been. Langford was not without
some strong idea of honor and de-
cency. Indeed, he had enjoyed long
and undistributed hours Of meditation
upon his sins Of omission and commits

character and career had done him
good. At heart in spite Of his brutal
conduct, for which drink had largely
been responsible, he was a gentleman,
and capable Of things fine and high
under the stimulus Of some really
great emotion. He had come to real
lie, TO put II mildly. what an awful
fool he had been to say nothing Of his
villainy. What had led him to this
realization had been the remembrance
of the hours he had passed with Kath-
arine BrentOn before the clouds had
arisen which had eliminated in that
awful storm, the recollection of which
fairly made him shudder. However
he had deceived her by protested ad.

loved her, And association with her
had been of benefit to him. If he
only had not given away to his tenn
