mains unexplained. Who was the girl
that nursed him during his fever In the
PEASANTS hut?
Before the solution is found to this
question, the insurgent army is totally
defeated, Fergus MacIvor is captured,
the prince escapes, and Waverley, who
Is now also fugitive, pays a secret
visit to the mansion Of the Baron of
Bradwardine, for he is anxious to learn
about the fate of some Of his friends.
He finds the baron in hiding in that
self-same hut where he had been
nursed during his fever, Here he
learns that it was Rose Bradwardine
who nursed him. It was Rose, also,
who had paid Donald Bean Lean with
her mothers jewelry in order to induce
him to rescue Waverley after his arrest
for treason. Overcome with gratitude
for such devotion, Edward asks the
baron Of Bradwardine for his daugh-
ter's hand. He can now marry her In
security for, thanks to the kindness Of
Colonel Talbot and other influential
Englishmen, both he and the baron
have been pardoned.
It takes the lequacious baron an
hour to tell Rose of Edwards love for
her. 1t takes Edward just five minutes
to convince her Of 1t.
Their happiness would now be COM
plete but for the sad fate of Fergus
MacIvOr, who has been condemned to
death. He faces the executioner un
flinchingly, expressing no regret for his
fate, but only the hope that 'they will
set my head on the Scotch gate, that ]
may look, even after death, to the blue
hills Of my own country, which I love
so dearly"
With this shadow to mar the sun.
shine of their happiness, Edward and
Rose are married.
Thus we come to the end of the 70.
mantle tale, and we must again return
to the drab reality Of our everyday ex.
istence. But before so doing let US, to.
gether with Flora MacIvor, who has
joined the Scottish Benedictine nuns
in Paris, bid the happy couple good
luck and adieu!
