CHAPTER xxx1x-(continued.)

Gradually Louisa's eyes became ac-
customed to the semi-darkness. She
fixed them on The sick man who lay
quite still against he pillows. his a
no less white than the linen against
which it rested. Louisa had 40 idea
that any man could alter so in such
brief while. 1t almost seemed difficult
to recognize in the white emaciated
figure that lay there with the stiffness
Of death. the vigorous man of a few
months ago.
The face had the appearance Of wax,
deep lines from the nostrils to the cor
ners Of the mouth accentuating its hol-
low appearances: the hair vas almost
snow-white now and chung matted and
damp to the forehead and sunken tenn
pies.
Lord Radcliffe seemed unconscious Of
Louisa's presence in the room. but his
eyes We're wide open and fixed on q
opposite to the bed. Louisa looked to
see on what those eyes were gazing
SO intently. and turning she saw the
splendid portrait of Luke de Mount
ford painted by h greatest Living
master of portraiture. which we all
Academy a few years ago. It had been
taken away from the boudoir. and
brought in here so that the sick man
might have the semblance now that
he was parted from the reality.
Only a feeble breath escaped Lord
Radclyffe's parted lips: there was nc
distortion In he face, and h hands
lay still, waxen-white. against the
quilt. Louisa looked down on the sick
man without, at first, attempting to
speak. She looked down on this and
the last cord of hopes broken Lutte, the
| Trail thread on which hung Luke's one
chance of safety: this feeble life al
most ended. this weak breath which
| alone could convey words of hope! For
the moment Louisa's heart almost mis-
gave her. when she thought Of what
she meant to do: to bring. namely, this
wandering spirit back to earth. in order
to make 1t conscious OF such misery AZ
no heart of man could endure and not
break. 1t seemed like ~purposeless, In
human cruelty!
Even II she could call that enfebled
mind back to the hideous realities Of
today. what chance was there that the
utter would be those that could save
Luke from the gallOws?
Was 1t not better to let the broken
heart sink to rest in peace, the weak
ened mind 90 back to the land OF
shadows unconscious OF further s0r-
