CHAPTER XII.

Young George paid his respects to
his grandfather the following morning,
having been occupied with various af-
fairs and engagements on Sunday un-
til after the Majors bedtime; and top
les concerned with building or exca-
vations were not introduced into the
conversation. which was a cheerful
one until George lightly mentioned
some new plans Of his. He spoke Of
his desire to extend his proficiency in
driving: in fact, he entertained the
ambition to drive four-in-hand. How
ever, as the Major said nothing, and
merely sat still. looking surprised,
George went on TO say that he did not
propose to "go In for coaching lust
at the start" he thought 1t would be
better to begin with tandem. He
was sure Pendennis could be trained

needed to buy at present. he said,
would be Comparatively inexpensive

the Major.
Georges glance lowered, resting cns-

he beheld some vague shapes, unfa-

seemed; but, without much curiosity.
he supposed that sewer connections or
water pipes might be out of order,
making necessary some excavations.
Not greatly disturbed. he pulled down
the shade, yawned. and began to un-
dress, leaving further Investigation for
the morning.
But In the morning he had forgotten

toward the ground. Not until he had
finished dressing did he look forth
from his window, nnd then his glance
was casual. The next instant his at
titude became electric. and he ran
from his room, plunged down the
stairs, out of the front door, and, upon
n nearer view of the destroyed lawn,
began to release profanity upon the
breezeless summer air, which remained
unaffected. Between his mothers
