The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1914-05-29

Europe as he might choose, for six
months. Mr.. Hampton had many let
tiers to people in England. but none
elsewhere, and Colonel Hampton would
be obliged if the marquis would re-
ceiye him at his estate of Castelforte
and let him see something of Italy
from that point of vantage. The mar
quis might then, if he thought good, re-
turn to Virginia in the Lovely Lucy,
and either set matters on a firm
enough footing to be left, or else
which the colonel considered the bet
ter plan-stay with them and become
a country gentleman of Virginia. The
colonel had heard that there had been
political trouble in Italy, but hoped
that at this time the country was at
peace and the marquis comfortably es-
tablished in his own castle.
All this the young marquis. an ex-
lie of five years from his native land,
had read at the chateau of Vicques. He
had considered deeply as to what he
might do about Carnifax, his estate in

aggerated lashes lifted and under them
were the blue eyes he knew.
Alike"
He cried 1t out loud, reckless, for
getting everything. But she did not
forget. In an instant her hand was on
his mouth. and she was whispering in
terror.
Francois, dear Francois, be careful.
We are not safe yet. We have a viii
lage to ride through-see, there Is
house. 1t is almost time for them to
be awake. Ride fast. 1t is two miles
yet"
They were racing again over the
soft ground, the horses unshod feet
making little noise, and Francois
heart was playing mad music. No
need now of cognac. Then they were
galloping down the sand of lonely
beach, and with that there was little
group of people and boat drawn up:
and they had pulled in the horses, and
Francois felt himself lifted off like a
child and lying like a very little,
worn-out child in the generals arms;
and the general was crying, swearing
hugging him without shame Pietro
was there; Pietro was rubbing the
thin hands in futile useless sort of
way, and holding them by turns to his
face. Alike, her peasant hat off now,
bent over them, lovelier than ever be-
fore, not minding her boys dress, and
smiled at him. wordless. There was
a huge man also who took the horses,
and Francois wondered If he had heard
Alright that Alike called him little Bat
tista." Wondering very much at ev-
erything. the voices grew far away
and the faces uncertain, and he de-
cided that 1t was without doubt a
dream and that Battista would unlock
the door shortly and bring in his break
fast. And with that he knew nothing
more till he awoke in boat.
And it was with new feeling; with
desire and hope to live. Pietro sat
watching him and brought him warm
milk and held his head up as he drank
it, like woman. Then, in quiet, slow
tones, he explained all the puzzle
which Francois had by now begun to
wonder over. 1t seemed that just be,
fore little Battista had brought Fran
co.'s letter to Vicques, Pietro had re-
ceived another unexpected letter, from
Colonel Hampton in Virginia, whose
estate lay next the six thousand acres
of land which the Marquis zappi had
bought fifteen years before. Colonel
Hampton wrote with two requests. The
first was that the Marquis Zappi
should come to Virginia, or send some
one with authority to look after his
property. The land was going to rack
and ruin for want of management;
the uncontrolled slaves on the place
were demoralizing to the neighbor-
hood. Colonel Hampton had done
what he could, but he had not the
power of master, and moreover he
he was busy with his own large estate.
The marquis should come or send a
qualified agent at once.
The next object of the letter was to
ask that the marquis should receive
and entertain the nephew of Colonel
Hampton, Mr. Henry Hampton, who,
sailing on Colonel Hampton's ship, the
Lovely Lucy, would bring this letter
to the marquis. The ship would go
first to England and discharge there
her cargo of tobacco, and after that it
was to be at the service of young Mr..
Hampton, to visit such countries of
