My hand was scarcely upon her In

An Embarrasslna situation.

It was well into the third day when
we came down into the fertile valley
Of the Cowskin. 1t had proven an I'M
eventful ride thus far, for we had met
with no adventures aud had observed
httle worthy Of consideration from a
military standpoint.
While constantly ~observant OF those
points regarding which had been dis
patched, my one overmastering
thought during all those hours was the
possibility Of again meeting with Edith
Brennan and proving of some assist
ance to her. Her greeting Of me In
the Federal hospital had been 50
sweetly gracious. so marked with ten
der sympathy, whilo the memory OF
aier words, and even more of the look
which accompanied them, had so re-
manned with me in encouragement
that | longed to encounter her again.
God knows what ! hoped for, for !
knew well 1t must all inevitably end
in despair, yet like the moth must
continue to SINCE my wings until the
dame devoured me. Now, however. as
we actually dgew near to where | sup
posed she might be. | felt my earlier
courage fast deserving me. Nor was
4 furnished with even the slightest
excuse for pressing on; my orders did
not positively compel me to proceed,
and nothing appeared along the way

any kind threatened that peaceful val
