I have no such confession to make. But
I know h drove that horse. r.
I had sacrificed Carmel to my sense
Of right. Never had 1 loved her as l

A turning point had been reached in

AS I noted the excitement which this
OccasiOned W in quarters where self
control is usually most marked and
such emotions suppressed I marveled at
the subtle influence of one mans ex-
pectancy and the powerful effect which
can be produced on a feverish crowd
by a we'll ordered silence suggestive of
coming action.
I, who knew the basis of this ex-
pectancy and the nature of the action
with which Mr.. Moffat anticipated
startling the court, was the quietest
person present. Since it was my hand
and none other which must give this
fresh turn to the wheel of justice it

throb of heart. But the time seemed
long before Arthur was released from
further cross examination and the op-
| portunity given Mr.. Moffat to call his
next witness.
Something in the attitude he now
took, something in the way he bent
ove his client and whispered a few
admonitory words, and, still more, the
emotion with which these words were
received and answered by some ex-
traordinary protest, aroused expectation
to a still greater pitch and made my
course seem eve more painful to my
self than l had foreseen when dreaming
over and weighing the possibilities Of
this hour. With something like terror
I awaited the calling of my name, and
when it was delayed it was with emo
lions inexplicable to myself that
looked up and saw Mr.. Moffat holding
open a door at the left Of the judge
with that attitude Of respect which a
man only assumes in the presence and
under the dominating influence Of

Carmel received the account well.
When she had it fully in mind she
looked up into the nurses face again
and repeated, quite calmly, but with
immovable decision, the order Of an
hour before:

Miss Unwin nodded and began to
open the trunks.
This, however, was a ruse. She did
not intend to take her patient back
that night. She was afraid to risk it.
The next day would be soon enough.
But she would calm her by making
ready and when the proper moment
came would find some complication of
trains which would interfere with their
immediate departure.
Meanwhile she would communicate
at the earliest moment with MI. Fox.
She had been in the habit Of sending
him frequent kilograms as to her pa
tents condition. They had been inva-
riable so far-"No difference. mind

was necessary now. She must look it

almost worse to look upon than death

and fell, the rigidity of her frame re-

lines on the open sheet before her.
But her eyes were unequal to the task.
With a sob she dropped the paper and
entreated the Nurse to relate to her
from her W knowledge all that had
passed.
Miss Unwin complied, but with res
ervations. She said nothing about the

dare. Strangulation was a horrible
death to contemplate, and if this fac

introduction Of her into the
courtroom in a restored state Of health
Of which no one, sc far as known. had
had any %intiInation save the nan who

The particulars are due you.
She had passed some weeks at Lake
wood under the eye of Miss Unwin,
the nurse who was detailed to watch
as well as tend her. During these
weeks she gave no sign Of improve
ment mentally, though she constantly
gained strength otherwise and i'm
pressed everybody with the clear light
in her eye and the absence Of every
thing suggestive Of gloom in her ex-
preston and language. There was the
same complete loss of memory up to
the time Of the tragic occurrence which
had desolated her home, the same
harping at odd moments on Adelaide's
happiness and her own prospect Of
seeing this dear sister very soon which
had marked the opening days of her
convalescence. But beyond and back
Of all this was some secret joy, unin-
telligible to the nurse, which helped
rather than retarded the sick girls re-
covery.
Meanwhile Carmel was allowed such
liberty as her condition required. but
