CHAPTER VII.
Wilfred Writes a Letter.

Half an hour is a short or a long
time, depending upon the individual
mood or the exigencies of the mo-
ment. 1t was short half hour to
Captain Thorne-to continue to give
him the name by which he was com
monty known-out in the moonlight
and the rose garden with Edith Var
ney. 1t was short to him because he
loved her and because he realized
that in that brief space must be
packed experience enough to last him
into the long future. 1t might be into
the eternal future!
II was short to Edith Varney in
part at least for the same reason, but
it was shorter to him than to her, for
ut the end of that period the guilt
or innocence of the man she loved and
who loved her would be established
beyond peradventure; either he was
the brave, devoted, self-sacrihcing
Confederate soldier she thought him.
or he was spy; and since he came
OF a Virginia family, although West
Virginia had separated from the Old
Dominion, she coupled the word spy
with that of traitor. Either or both
would be enough to condemn him
Fighting against suspicion, she would
fain have postponed the moment OF
revelation, of decision, therefore too
quickly passed the flying moments.
1t was a short half hour TO Thorne,
because he might see her no more. 1t
was a short half hour to Edith because
she might see him no more and It
might be possible that she could
not even allow herself TO dream upon
him in his absence in the future. The
recollection of the woman would ever
be sweet and sacred to the man, but
It might be necessary for the woman
to blot out utterly the remembrance OF
the man.
II was a short half hour to young
Wilfred in mis- own room, waiting i'm.
patiently for old Martha to bring the
altered uniform, over which Caroline

ard, who had enjoyed one of his lucid
moments and who seemed to be

the drawing-room. at Mr., Arrelsford's
suggestion, to see that no one from
the house who might have observed,
or OWNED, or learned. in any way
what was going on within should go
out into the garden and disturb the
young couple. or give an alarm to the
man who was the object of so much
interest and suspicion, so much love
and hatred
About the only people who took no
note of the time were the busy semp-
stresses in the room across the hall.
and the first sign of life came from
that room. Miss Kittridge, who ap.
peared to have been constituted the
messenger OF the workers, came out
of the room, went down the hall to
the back of the house, and presently
entered the drawing-room by the far
door.

walked slowly over to one of the front
windows, drew aside the curtains, and
pushed It open. All was still. she
listened for she knew not what. There
was a footstep from the far end or
the walk leading from the summer
house, footstep she knew. Edith
moved rapidly away from the window
to the table and stood by 1t, her hand
resting upon 1t, her knees fairly trem'
bling in her emotion, as she waited.
The next moment the open space
framed the figure OF Captain Thorne.
He entered fearlessly, but when his
eye fell upon her there was something
so strained about her attitude that
spark of suspicion was kindled in his
soul Yet his action was prompt
enough He came instantly toward
her and took her hand.

Edith watched his approach fasci-
mated, as a bird by serpent. His
touch awakened her to action She
snatched her hand away and shrank
back.

He looked at her in amazement. The
spark OF suspicion burst into flame,
but she recovered herself instantly.
''Oh, It was you," she faltered. She
forced a smile to her lips. How per

to be ashamed of myself. Come. let's
go out on the veranda. ! want to talk
to you about SO many things.
There's-theres half an hour-yet be-

She had possessed herself OF his
hand again as she spoke. She now
stepped swiftly toward the window.
He followed her reluctantly until they
reached the opening. She stepped
through it and archly looked back at
him, still in the room.
How lovely is the night she said
with tender persuasiveness. Come
with me"
The man looked around him hastily.
Every moment was precious to him.
Did Miss Varney know? If so, what
did she know? What was to be gained
or lost by half an hours delay on his
part? He drew out his watch and
glanced at 1t swiftly. There was
time. He would never see her again.
He might say he would possibly never
see anyone again after the hazards of
this night. He was entitled to one
brief moment OF happiness. How long
