him, too, she is at the cross roads
They are ruined.
In a sudden passionate abandonment
he begs her to let him take her away
out of her troubles. Go with him, and
when his wife sets him free he will
marry her. For a moment Ethel shows
she feels the temptation. Poverty to
her is horrible. She almost yields
Then another mood follows, and she
refuses. He pleads.
''NO, Chris; not just now" she says.
"Some time, perhaps in the dead of
night, something will snap in me-the
slack, selfish, luxurious me-that hates
to be reused into action, and the crav-
ing for adventure will come. Then
I'll send for you"
"And you'll go with me?'

Just as he is about to press his cause
Alaric burst into the room with a very
dignified elderly gentleman whom he
had found in the garden inquiring for

The lawyer gathered up his papers

N June /, 1912, Mrs. Chichester
sat in her morning room in
Regal villa, Scarboro, Eng
land, facing the supreme crisis


OF her life.
In her hand lay an open letter; be-
side her stood her son and daughter,
panic stricken.
The bank containing every penny her
dead husband had left her had closed
its doors. They were beggars. She
must live on charity the rest of her
life with relatives she disliked and
who disliked her. Tears were stream
eng down her face.
Her daughter, Ethel, took the ca
lamity >-8lmly. She would work or
teach children-anything.
Alaric, her son, was indignant. What
right had any bank to close its doors
especially that particular one? 1t
ought to be made to open them again
and at least pay them what they in
trusted to them. They should do this
even If they did not pay any one else.
Alaric could not understand any one
causing him a moments discomfort.
That was the fault of his mothers
training. AT school and at college he
had done just as he pleased. Provid-
ed with all the money he needed,

I Just before she died she wrote q
Nathaniel Kingsnorth for the first
time and asked him to help them. He
replied, 'sYou have made your bed-lit
in itT'
The remembrance haunts the dying
man. He wants to make some atone
ment. If that child is still alive he
wishes to see her before he dies.
They make inquiries and find the
child, now grown to. young woman
hood, is living in very poor circum-
stances in the city of New York.
He sends money for her passage to
England with a request to her father
to let her visit him.
The father consents.
Before the girl reaches England, how
ever, Nathaniel Kingsnorth dies.
Now, in his will he directs that the
sum of FL, 900 a year be paid to any
lady of breeding and refinement who
win undertake the training of the girl
in the best traditions of the Kings
north family.
He also directs that the training
should continue to the age of twenty
one if she showed any desire to acquire
the education necessary for her posi-
ton, and when she reached that age
she should inherit the sum of 5000 q
year.
If, in the judgment of his executor,
she was not worthy of interest at
the expiration of one year, then she
must be returned to her father and
the sum of f250 year paid her to
provide her with the necessaries of life.
Mr.. Hawkes. then faced Mrs. Chi
chester with the second shock she ex-
perienced that unlucky, fatal day.
1t was Mr.. Kingsnorth's wish that

other one of the most pathetic, dis
reputable Irish terriers it had ever
been the distinguished Chichester fam
ily's misfortune to lay eyes on.
And this was her niece.
This was the creature Nathaniel de-
sired her to train.
But for the prospect of abject misery
she would have turned the little girl
out of her house.
The thought of the thousand pounds
year restrained her.
what is your nameY'
peg, ma'am," replied the little red
headed girl.
Mrs. Chichester sent for the servant.
Take away those parcels and that
dog" she said.
Peg clutched the little animal to her.
''No, not Michael she said 'tYou
mustn't take Michael away from me.
He was given to me by my father"
And so began Pegs career in Lon
don. 1t was a month of conflict
She had only one bright little spot
in the history of that wretched month
"a friendship for an old friend of the
family whom she only knows as
Jerry"
Jerry brought her home one night
from a dance. The house was fast
asleep.
Just as he was taking his leave of
her he heard a footstep on the path.
Warning her to hide he turned to
the window and found Christian Brent
coming up the step.
''Hello, Brentv' said Jerry. "Just
coming from the dance? didn't see
you there"
NO." replied Brent. ST was rest
less and just strolled here" He tried
to pass Jerry and enter the house, but
Jerry intercepted him. "Come with
me to the road" he said coolly; ''the
house is asleep"
They walked to the road, where
Jerry saw Brent's Mercedes car wait
ing at the bend.
Jerry watched him go away, then
walked up and down the road, watch
ing the Chichester windows as if won
dering if Peg were all safe.
Meanwhile Peg, the moment Jerry
had taken Brent away, crept quietly
upstairs. Just as she got to the top
Ethel appeared fully dressed and carry
ing a small travelling bag.
She ordered Peg down into the room
and demanded what she was doing |
there.
Peg, divining why Ethel was there,
asked her interloctor what she was |
doing fully dressed at that time of |
night.
''Were We going away with that man?
He was here a minute ago and Mr..
Jerry took him away"
'FWho was here?'
"Mr Brent. Were you going away
With him?''
Ethel burst with tears and poured
)ut her own wretched story. For the
irst time the two girls opened their
hearts to each other and mingled their
ears.
Reused by a falling receptacle, Mrs.
Chichester and Alaric came down into
he room and found the two girls.
Peg made up her mind instantly to
ave Ethel. She declared that she
lad taken EthePs hat and cloak and
Jag to the dance with Mr.. Jerry. (
Mrs. Chichester was furious. 1
Later Peg was confronted by Jerry

ia desired he to ran

Jerry introduced himself to her as
the chief executor of the late Mr..
Kingsnorth's will and made her ac-
quainted, with the conditions of the
will.
Peg was indignant when she learned
that Mrs. Chichester was paid a thou
sand pounds a year for treating her
so shamefully.
They all begged her to stay, until at
last Ethel told her that the day she

came into the house they did not have
a penny. She had literally fed and
housed them for the past month.
Then Jerry told the Chichesters that
he happened to be also a director of
their bank and that it would shortly
reopen its doors and every depositor
would be paid in full.
The family were immensely relieved
Now there was no occasion to house
Peg any longer.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1914-03-18

One by one they took their depar-
ture, leaving Peg alone with Jerry.
Jerry, realizing that Peg was about
to pass out of his life, took the fate
in his hands. He told her Of his love
for her and that he couldn't bear the
thought of losing her.
