perhaps far away in battle. there were the candles upon the altar It is a curious custom, father. And the old tales say, it led to 8 tragedy once. But because of that do you think that the De Valettes abandoned it? Not they! The De Valettes do not aban- don custom
 "A tragedy?" The priest was inter- ested. He leaned forward. resting his elbows on his cassocked knees
 Louise went on:
 ''It was a De Valette who went to the crusades. they say. He was a lover. father, and the woman he loved was his wife. He left her there 8 bride and very beautiful He was great soldier. and King Philip, in the Holy Land,- made him count of all Valette. in Normandy. So he rode home gayly all the long journey to kiss his bride again. But as he passed by the chapel before he came to the chateau he saw by the lighted win dow there were candies on the altar. So he went in to count them. They were twenty. His wife, she was twen- ty, father. So he kpew. And then he set his dagger at the armpit where the breastplate does not meet the shoulder piece, reaching his heart that way. Next day the candles were for him.
 She finished The priest sat back in his chair, folding his hands.
 "But that" he said, twas in the old world and hundreds of years ago.
 She turned little to him.
 ''What is that to the master?' she demanded. Ut is enough for him that he is 8 De Valette. Here are we in Louisiana. But what difference has the new world made to the De Valettes when they come here and bring their customs with them? They build our chapel yonder'' She thrust her arm behind her. indicating the window heavy spire Of stone like the one in Norma ndy.'' close by the house. "Yes.'' she went on grumblingly, "they must have their chapel-even an organist, old Lemaitre. the master keeps here one more mouth to feed! And he can do nothing in the world but play the organ. And now the master has said that old Christian. though he was a slave must receive the honor of the candles because he has been mem Der of the household all his hfe.''
 Father O'8fara said:
 '@Ehat does honor to your masters heart"
 '-In his place." muttered Louise. ''I would rather save some for my stom- ach Old Christian was sixty-three years old. Here, with these others from the sconces. can make no more than forty-four candles. If the master makes us buy more to fill the count, there will be no more than salad to eat tomorrow"
 Father O'Mara rose, wandering to the window.
 ''So Christian was the last slave be- longing to NJ. de Valettef'' he said.
 ''The very last of all the hundreds that were in other days. All are sold or dead. Ah. these few acres that the Americans have left the master! It Is good that these few acres don't dieg' Father O'Mara opened his snuffbox. Deliberately he took a little of the pungent powder and placed it to his nostrils.

 The old servant paused hesita tingly. She said:

 (Which means" stated NJ. de Va lette, ''that you have but forty-four candles.''
 ''A1iche,'' cried Louise extenuatingly, ''NIl1e. Marguerite looks for others.' '"That will not do. We must have no burnt ones. Throw out those that are burnt.''
