cHAPTnR 1II-tcontInuedl

John Erleigh did not move. He was
face 10 face with the tragedy of his life.
For that single hour of cowardice he had
paid heavily through all these years. Yet
from that hour his whole life had
changed for the better. The follies Of his
youth had dropped away from him. He
had seen the road clearly, and he had
followed It, A year Of idling at oxford
had been followed by three years Of
strenuous labor. He had almost worked
himself to death, but he had carried all
before him. And even his successes in
the field of scholarship had been moth
ing compared to his triumph over him
self AS folly had given way to wisdom.
30 selfshness had given way to a desire
to work out his salvation by devoting
his life to others
"Well, don't want to rub It in," said
Vortigan after pause. II should never
have referred to the matter IL you hadn't
said I was unfit to look after your boys.
That was unkind of you. We've both
changed-both grown older and wiser.
We're both sorry for the past, and are
trying our best to live 1t down. You're
doing fine work. and I'm trying hard to
be of some use in the world"
The man spoke quietly and earnestly.
He seemed to be sincere enough. John
Erlelgh felt little ashamed of himself
Who, after all, was he that he should
Judge others that he should refuse to be-
tieve in honest repentance?
'1f you hadn't recognized me-" Verti-
gan continued, ST should not have told
you who I was. don't want to rake up
the past, Erleigh. There Is no need for
you to do SO. I've come to ask you for a
Job. It's your business to consider my
application as II 1 were a stranger.
You've read my testimonials, They're
genuine enough
John Erleigh rested his chin on his
hands and closely scrutinized Vertigan's
face. The latter bore the scrutiny with
out filnching,
'Id rather you did not come here" the
headmaster said after a pause. "You
must see that-that It would be very
painful for me-"
don't believe you are that sort OF man
at all. rather fancy that your memory
Is good enough, and that you don't spare
yourself. You don't trust me. You are
afraid OF me-
II am not afraid OF you"
You are afriad of employing me in
your service. You think that am not
at person TO have charge OF your boys.
You have no right to think that, Erleigh.
I've proved myself to be capable and
honest You've got letters there-you've
read them. You must Judge me on my
merits. You have no right to believe
that I've not altered just as much as
you have"
The man spoke quietly and reasonably
enough. Erleigh's only reason for re-
fusing to employ him might easily have
been urged against Erleigh's own fit-
ness for the high position he held In
fact, In Erleighs case 1t might have
been urged with greater justice. vertigan

allowed another man to 30 unpublished
20 years ago was In comparison, very
small matter indeed.
"Im afraid" said vertigan, after a
pause, "that you're thinking Of yourself
In this matter, that your hesitation is
due not 80 much TO a desire for the
welfare of your boys as to your personal

So the truth was out at last. Vertigan

Erleigh rose from his chair.

Vertisan smiled. "Does that mean" no

tired and want to go to bed. will think
over your application and give you an
answer In the morning."
Vertlgan rose to his feet.

"Half-past g.
Vertigan nodded. Good night" he
Haid, land look here, Erleigh, don't get It
into your head that I've threatened you. I
might have done that sort of thing years
ago. but I'm different man in these days
Can't you forget the past and believe me2
If any one ought to believe in sincere
repentance, Il is you"
Good night" said Erleigh quietly. 'T
will let you know my decision in the
morning."
1t was after 1 o'clock when John Err
leigh went upstairs to his bedroom He un-
dressed, turned out the gas, and stood by
the open window, leaning his arms on the
sill The moon shone brightly and the
great tower of the Abbey stood out clearly
against the sky, casting it's shadow over
the schoolhouse and the garden. 1t was
a night in which man might well think
OF the woman he loved, of the new and
wonderful life that was opening out before
him. But John Erleigh was thinking OF
Vertigan-that ugly ghost from the past
-and his lips were tightly pressed to-
gether.
'T must thrust the personal element out
of the question" he said to himself. II
must consider Vertigan's application on
its merits. That means shall have to
engage him"
He got into bed, but more than an hour
passed before he went to sleep. He was
wondering, after all. II he had not allowed
the personal element to crop into the mat
ter; whether he was not. after all, afraid
of Vertigan, and only too ready to find
some excuse for not refusing the mans
request.
