CHAPTER xxx.
The Princes Bright Shadow

The Princes Bright Shadow.
There are old people living in Eng
land today who remember hearing
their fathers and mothers speak of a
young Frenchman Of uncommon per-
sonality, constantly seen with Prince
Louis Napoleon during the last days
of his life in London In the year 1910.
Lady Constance Cecil nicknamed this
Frenchman the princes bright
shadow" There seemed to be a closer
tie than brotherhood between them.
and the tradition runs that the mys-
teal prince had a superstition that his
luck went with him in the person OF
the Chevalier Beaupre.
1t was all as it should be; he was
entirely happy. He had asked three
said long ago; that the prince should
be emperor-that he might become "a
marshal of France under another Bona
parte"-that Alike should love him.
The first two he believed about to be
realized. The last? 1t was not now
the time to think of that. Alike had
kissed him good-by- That would more
than do till the fight was over. So he
sped back to London, missing Pietro.
but hopeful and buoyant. And in Lon
don there was a letter for him from
Virginia
Dear Francois" Lucy began. ITO
think that the first letter sent to you
by Harry's wife should be to tell you
that she has betrayed your trust in
her. I am distressed beyond words,
for I have made mistake which may
mean distress to you. You remember
the letter to Alike which you trusted
to me to send in case anything should
happen to you? l had 1t in my hand
the week after my wedding when l had
gone upstairs to get other letters for
Europe which my father had command
ed me to send by the next packet. And
in some stupid unexplainable way 1
slipped yours precious letter.
among them in place of one to my IA
theirs agents in London, and 1 hur-
ried down and gave the parcel to Sam
DO, who was waiting to ride to Nor
folk with them. And then Harry and
/ went away on a visit to Martins
Brandon for three days, and it was
only when 1 came back that discov-
cred the dreadful mistake 1 had made.
Can you ever forgive me? Harry and
I thought over every possibility of stop
ping it, but there seemed to be no
chance Are you very angry with me,
| dear friend of Harry's and of miner"
The letter went on with reproaches
and regrets and finally slipped into a
tale of a new happy life which Fran
co.'s had made possible for the two.
He read it over several times. His
letter to Alike, which should have been
sent only after his death, had gone to
her. What then? She would know
that he loved her; that he had loved
her always; that he would love heI
| forever; that the one wish of his life
had been that she should love himself
not Pietro. He had said that in the
| letter; that was all. He was glad that

"Mademoiselle Lucy" he said
have something to ask of you
81 will do It," Lucy promised bhthe-
ly, not waiting for details.
Francois laughed. you trust one,
Mademoiselle Lucy-that is plain.
Then his face became serious. DO you
remember a talk we once had together
when 1 told you of my old playmate,
Alixe?"
The bride-to-be flushed furiously as
she recalled that talk. Then she nod
ded in matter-of-fact manner. Il re-
member very WE'LL" she said. 1T was
when l threw myself at your head and
you said you didn't want me-.
Francois shoulders and hands and
eyes went upward together into an
eminently French gesture. What
horrori" he cried. What an unspeak-
able manner to recollect that talk!
How can you? How can you be so
brutal to me?"
Both of them, at that, burst into
light-hearted laughter. Lucy was grave
suddenly.
But you have something to ask
me, Francois. You spoke of your
playmate-beautiful Alike"
1T is only you whom l could ask to
do this, Mademoiselle Lucy. l have
never told anyone else about her. Only
you know of''-the words came slow
ly--of my love for her. She does not
know it. Alike does not know. And
1 may be killed, one sees, in this fight
for the prince. Quite easily And
Alike will not know. I do not like
that. In fact 1 cannot bear it. So this
is what 1 ask of you, dear mademoi-
selle." He brought out letter and
held it to her IF you hear that am
killed, will you send it. to Alixe?"
Lucy took the letter and turned it
over doubtfu1ly. 81 do not like this
sort of post-mortem commission, Fran
co.'s. l feel as if / were holding your

But it is not by a bit of writing l

promise not to die one minute sooner
for that letter. 1t is only that it will
make me happy to know you will send
it"
So Lucy, holding the letter gingerly,
agreed. But as Francois rose to go
she stood by him a moment and laid
her hand on his coat sleeve. Fran
cois-I want to tell you something"
But yes, Observation-Disclosures. Lucy
cit is something wrong"
"Yes-Lucy."

Yes
This is it, then"-and FRANCOIS
smiling, waited and there was deer
silence in the big, cool. quiet drawing
room for as long as minute. This is
1T, then. / don't know how can be sc
