By and by Mr.. Van Zandt did come
home.
No one knew until long years after
where and how he had spent those sew
enty-two hours. When he returned 1t
was on foot, unshaven, unkempt and
haggard, aged by years. but with no
syllable of either inquiry or explana-
ton. He made his toilet. took some
breakfast and drove down to his Office
in the white satin lined coupe he had
made into so soft and bridelike a nest
for Betty Revere.
Once at the office, he wrote in a firm
and rapid hand to his father-in-law at
Limoges. merely this:
Colonel John Paul Revere, American
Consul General, Limoges, France:

up. the carriage house will be secluded

New York, Nov. 10. 1S-."
This was mailed and went out by the
ship sailing that very day for Havre.
All the things that Peter Van Zandt
had mentioned in his letter to Colonel
Revere We're promptly done; his orders
carried out to the letter. Bridget
agreed, mo1e than willingly, to live on
in her accustomed quarters. 1t would
not be lolely since the two basement
doors in realty opened upon n area;
the back t3ors of both kitchens were
alongside IF each other. Shaddle was
to remain in his place, and Miss Supple
was to do the cooking for her master
lor quarters that We're evidently to be
maintained in the Washington square
side of DIR. Van Zandts big house.
In a fortnight the walls. then. were
built, the arches filled, the new plaster
dried and papered in the semblance of
marble columns like the rest Of the
halls. Heavy curtains, too. were hung
over the archways, and Peter Van
Zandt, after that, retired to his half of
the house and never again in long. long
years put his foo inside his wffe's side
of the old brick mansion.
As SOC as the workmen began to be
busy he had gone to the New York
hotel and stopped there. When the
repairs were finished 1t was his order
that shaddle should so report to him
