CHAPTER XXI.
Zallony's Son.

Gavin permitted her to escape his
arms when he heard the Earl calling
to them from the Italian garden above
the river. A sense of eyultation Of
ecstasy no words could measure, pos.
sessed him as he watched the slim
white-clad figure, here disappearing,
there showing itself again between
the ramparts of the splendid trees.
She was his, henceforth and forever.
All her beauty, her charm, her intel
lect, every grace of speech and man.
ner had passed to his possession.
This stately girl of whom the coun-
tryside spoke as of some wondrous di-
vinity. she had promised to become
his wife; for him the warm kisses Of
her lips, the declared secrets of her
eloquent eyes, the passionate ardor
OF her embraces. Yesterday he would
have called himself a madman to
have dared the meanest of the hopes
(which now might be regarded with
equanimity. Tonight he could recall
them with that kind incredulity which
even attends the first hours of such an
avowal as this. What act or purpose
Of his life had brought him such a re-
ward; why had she deemed him wor-

er vain man nor fool. II he con-
templatsd his good fortune with Just
trepidation, none the less he believed
himself to merit 1t. She loved him,
and henceforth might claim his life.
This was the whole lesson Of the first
brief moments Of delight.
Gavin was far too excited to think
of returning to the Castle; nor had he
any wish to speak to the Earl until
his own story presented itself to him
in some reasonably plausible shape.
Under other circumstances, he could
have understood the anger and the
impatience which such declaration
might bring upon him; but these he
did not expect at Melbourne Hail. Rob
ert Forester seemed to him rather an
aristocrat by accident than by birth
He, himself would not in any case
consider the dignity of his own life
and calling as beneath that Of one
whose ancestors had been the Jest Of
London in the days of the Stuarts. He
had the right OF an honored name, Of
considerable achievement, and of his
youth: and by these he claimed her.
Moreover, the secrets Of the Hall were
now his own; and he understood that
the forgotten years stalked as ghosts
through the splendid chambers, speak
ing of passions outlived and of the
aftermath to be garnered from their
fields. Father and daughter alike
were reaping that which had been
sown in Bucharest more than twenty
years ago. From his just judgment,
from her birthright, it lay upon the
stranger to save them. Gavin deter
mined to begin his work that very
night.
