A Matrimonial
Coincidence
By RICHARD MARKEY

When my mother died and left me
alone in the world l resolved to rent
my house, spend few months abroad
and on my return move into bachelor
quarters. During the preliminary weed
ing out Of useless accumulations l took
from box Of old papers bundle that
astonished me- 1t contained documents
relating to an estate Of which I bad
never heard. They consisted Of deeds
to houses and lands, also stocks. bonds
and other property.
l could not have been more surprised
II Oh 6heel had come down from heav-
en- and lit on my shoulder. How had
these papers come into my possession? :?
l had no remembrance Of having plac-
ed anything in the box for several
years On examining some of them
found the estate to be held In trust for
a minor, John Carter Greatrix. / had
never heard of such a person. On fur
ther examination l came to the con-
clusiOn that the estate In question must
have remained unavailable by any one
placed in my box. What should l do
In the matter? If advertised them
and could give no satisfactory reason
for possessing them might be accused
of having stolen them. | had engaged
my passage on an ocean liner and re-
solved to proceed on my journey, which
would give me plenty Of time to think
over the best course to pursue ! sailed
the next day.
During my trip | met in Berlin an
American, Miss Eleanor Thurlow, who
was there with her mother studying
music with view to teaching it on her
return. She finished her course about
the time l met her, and as her mother
and she spent the summer in Switzer-
land l was enabled to see a great deal
Of them, for stayed where they stay
ed, and on our return | engaged pas
sage on the same steamer. Before en-
barking we were engaged.
During the voyage thought at inter
walls about the estate of young John
Carter Greatrix. wondering If he had
} come into possession of it and trying
/ to decide what l should do about max
ing known that had the papers. Now
that another was the partner of my
/ joys and sorrows / felt my RESPONSE
, bility more keenly. l debated whether
! l should confide In Eleanor Thurlow
! but. having known me only very
short time, she might grow suspicious
! of me- No, would wait till she knew
me better. l told her that l had a
little property and was enga ged in a
business in which l was doing well.
On the whole, we could live comforta-
bly,. She maintained a reserve with
reference to her own affairs; but, as
she was expecting to teach music, I
concluded she was possessed of little
or nothing. We parted as soon as we
reached America to go to our respec-
tive homes, which were a days journey
apart.
Meanwhile l had resolved to refer the
matter of the papers to my lawyer and
be guided by his advice. In relating
the circumstance to him had no soon.
