but they showed a picture which her
ladyship had sent from India, the photo
graph of a large, sumptuous. naughty
looking lady.
Mrs Payte shifted at it. "I never
could bear those large women" said the
shriveled old woman, swapping her bright
eyes.
Theodore was getting more and more
jealous of the attention Royden paid to

The Larches:
Il think not, Mrs Payte. I happen to
know Mr.. Keith's opinion of Honor

was it?"
HE said.' replied Theodore, lying of
course, that you We're ont a girl upon
whom any man would care to bestow IL
strong affection. You were very well
for an hours amusement-or something
to that effect"

Too Much Attention

Theodore and her mother saw the
interest Royden took in Honor and did
not like it: Captain Hervey also paid
far too much attention to their poor
connection-and they did not like that
Captain Hervey walked home with
Honor that night, escorting her to The
Larches, though Mrs. Trent insisted
that "a servant would have done just
as we'll"
Honor found Lawrence Haughton sit
ting up waiting for her. He had made
coffee for her and begged her to drink
a cup of it,
why did not Phoebe wait for me?p
asked Honor with visible annoyance.
Il sent her to bed" answered Law
renee. 20. Honor, why is it that moth
ing I can do or say tempts you to linger
with me? My beautiful child. my fa-
vorite-why do you not take one lesson
from Phoebe?'
Lawrence replied Honor" let there

something to trivial to notice. Now,

SuEnicinus Actions

Gabriel was caught in an attempt to-
leave England and in the bag he had
with him were fragments of the miss
ing will
a girl named Margaret Territ, who
lived with her father in a cottage on
tho outer border of the wood testified
at the trial that Gabriel, ON the night
OF the murder, had come to the cottage
'and told her and her father of his quarrel
with his uncle
lie told them of old MIDDLETON having
made will dislnheriting him, and where
tie will was placed.
Soon after Gabriel left the cottage her
father who was a mineworker on the
night shift, left also to go to his work.
That night when Margaret was setting
quite alone in the cottage Gabriel came
in With a white, scared face. and asked
for water to wash his hands. And when
he had washed them he opened the back
door Of the cottage and threw the water
upon the soil.
Then he drew off his white wrist
hanGs and crushed them up In his hands
ard burned them up in the fire He
then took off his own coat, which was
smeared with blood. and borrowed u
coat of the miners. asking Margaret
TO conceal or destroy the coat he left
behind.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-24
Awaiting Lady Lawrence

Now had come the time when from
India Lady Lawrence had written to
say that she was coming home to see
her connections and make her willard
there was commotion among the ham
kerers after Old Myddleton's money
lawyers Haughton and his sister Jane,
and the cousins Phoebe and Honor, who
lived with them because Mr. Haughton
was their guardian-and the Ianguid
capt. Hervey Trent, with his blonde
mustache; and the handsome and ac-
complished Theodore Trent, who lived
with her mother at a pretentious place
called Deergrove. a SMALL estate in the
Kinbury neighborhood
There was a dinner at Deergroye--
Captain Trent was visiting there-and
Honor Craven had been invited that she
might be patronized and formed by
her more fashionable and better-off rel
atives.
Also one Royden Keith had been in
vited-because he was reputed to be
very rich
He had hired the shooting at Abbots-
moor and was stopping at the hotel in
kinbury with a sufficient retinue of
servants and dogs and horses to be ac-
cepted at his face value-though nobody
had the least idea who he was or where
he came from
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-24
Mysterious Mr.. Keith

Handsome and elegant, he graced So
eietY and would add to her daughters
popularity; easy and indolent. he would
not be likely to rebel against the will
of a mother in-law.
He was %, his cousin Theodora's ex-
act age
The captain was undeniably hand
some man. And nobody was better
aware of it than the languid captain
himself
To him had been assigned tho task of
forming Honor and he delivered to
her little lectures on etiquette in pub
lie.
Royden Keith was an entirely differ
ent sort of man. His was a grave face
when seen at rest and with a strange
mixture of power and patienae--a face
full of deep and concentrated thought
but with never shade af gloom upon
it or trivial fretfuIness.
His skin was Drowned by the sun. the
short hair was so thick and dark, the
lashes SO long, the teeth so white that
many took Royden Keith for a native or
southern Spain or Italy
But the idea vanished after the first
few minutes and, though puzzled now
and then by the traces of foreign travel.
no one could help being struck by what
was essentially English in him.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-24
Mr.. Haughton's Suspicious

Honor, finding Phoebe was awake,
gave her an account of the dinner at
Deergrove-a comical account which
set the little Frau--as Honor called her
because of he Dutch face-to laughing
and then, having seen her cousin cheer
full, Honor went to bed. And perhaps
she dreamed of Royden Keith.
Now, that waiting clerk, Mr.. Slimp,
was not at The Larches to write a deed.
He was there to consult. his principal in
a matter of business.
Mr.. Haughton had his suspicious Of
Royden Keith. Royden had been hang
ing about Kinbury, the lawyer thought,
with a purpose. He had seemed very
much interested in the story of Old
Myddletons murder in Abbotsmoor.
A suspicion arose in Haughton's mind.
Was this stranger Gabriel Middleton
come back rich and under an assumed
name? If so, a knowledge of the fact
would be valuable asset for Mr..
Haughton to be possessed of IN many
ways.
He had set Slimp to spy upon Roy
den and only that afternoon Slimp-a
cringing, crawling cur-had, to his sor-
row, been caught spying by MIR. Keith.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-24
The Last to Arrive

Miss Theodore took an evident and
deep interest in the stranger and, as
she looked now and again from her
languid cousin to Royden and back
again. was evidently comparing the
two.
Honor Craven was the last to arrive
at the little dinner party. Keith, when
Honor was announced, saw a young and
beautiful girl whose manners had a
free and natural grace which was. so
far removed from Theodora's languid
elegance as the flight of swallow
skimming through the air is from the
gliding of swan uon the water
With a curious lightness he watched
her through the waiting moments be-
Tore dinner, and the study seemed n
fresh one to the man who had travelled
hair the world and studied the beauties
OF so many races. and who, though
little more than 80 years old, had lived
a wider, larger life than most of the
gray-haired men he met
As they went out to dinner CAPTAIN
Hervey, having given one arm to Theo-
dora, languidly and patronizipgly Of
lered the other to Honor-who did not
see it.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-24
Money Without a Curse

When she heard of Royden's Illness
Honor flew to his bedside. All was ex-
planned; he recovered and they were
married
Honor insisted upon Gabriel taking
half of Old Myddleton's money--she Of
fered him the whole. but he would not
accept it-and he and his wife went to
live at Abbotsmoor
Haughton got into financial Difficult
ties. Honor rescued him, and he and
Jane went to Australia to start life
anew
Captain Trent. under Honor's trains
ing shook off his lethargy and married
Phoebe Honor buying the captain a
partnership in bank
The nealxing clerk, Slimp, was killed
in carriage accident Honor provided
for Marie. the photographers daugh-
ter who was now an orphan.
Mrs. Trent and Theodore were 1ast
heard of dragging themselves about
from one continental watering place to
another in search of a husband fop
Theodore.
There was no curse on Old Myddle-
tons money as the people used to think.
Tor in the hands of Gabriel and Honor
1t became the means of blessing To
many And why should it not when
Honor and Royden and Gabriel deyoted
their lives to doing good?
