r WAS sitting in my own room,
writing to the Reverend Mother,
to tell her of my return home,
when l heard the toot of horn and
raising my eyes saw a motor car COM
ing up the drive. 1t contained three
gentlemen, one Of them wore goggles
and carried silver haired terrier on
his knees.
A little later Messy Macleod came

party had arrived and l was wanted
Immediately,
I went downstairs hesitatingly, with
a haunting sense of coming trouble,
Reaching the door OF the drawing
room | saw my intended husband for
the first time-there being nothing in
his appearance to awaken In me the
memory OF ever having seen him be-
fore.
He was on the hearthrug in front
Of the fire, talking to Betsy Beauty,
who was laughing immoderately. To
get a better look at him. and at the
same time to compose myself, l
stopped for moment TO speak TO the
three gentlemen (the two lawyers
and Lord Raa's trustee or guardian)
who were standing with my father in
the middle OF the floor.
He was undoubtedly we'll dressed
and had a certain air of breeding. but
even to my girlish eyes he betrayed
at that first sight the character of a
man who had lived an irregular. per-
haps a dissipated life.
His face was pale, almost puny, his
gray eyes We're slow and heavy, his
mustache was dark and small his
hair was thin over his forehead, and
he had a general appearance of being
much older than his years. which /

we Travelled slowly and It was
a week before we reached ELAN. BY
that time my depression had disap-
peared, and | was quivernC with
mingled curiosity and fear at the
thought of meeting the man who was
to be my husband.
My father, for reasons OF his own,
was equally excited, and as We sailed
into the hay at Blackwater he point
ed out the Developments which had
been made under his direction--the
hotels, theaters. dancing palaces and
boarding houses that lined the sea
front, and the electric railways that
ran up TO the top of the mountains.
See that?" he cried. Il told them

On a great stone pier that stood
deep into the bay, a crowd OF people
were waiting for the arrival of the
steamer
That's nothing" said my father.

AS soon as we had drawn up along
side the pier and before the passen-
gers had landed four gentlemen came
aboard, and my heart thumped with
the thought that my intended hus-

having made each others acquaint-
ance as far back as ten years ago
when l was the prettiest little woman
in the world, he remembered, though
perhaps my manners were not quite
cordial.
I'VE had a slight difference on the
subject of kisses. Don't you remem-
Der it?"
Happily there was no necessity to
reply, for my father came to say that
he wished to show his lordship the
improvements he had been making,
and the rest of us were at liberty to
follow them.
The improvements consisted chiefly
of new wing to the old house, con-
tanning a dining roora still unfur-
nished, which had been modelled, as I
found later, on the corresponding
room in Castle Raa.
With proud lift of his white head
my father pointed out the beauties of
his new possession. while my intend
ed husband, with his monocle to his
eye. looked on with certain con-
descension, and answered with a Ian

on contempt.

this at last.

she said.

she proceeded to explain to his lord
