TODAY,S INSTALMENT.

Fairbanks was q good-sized square
house of white stone, standing back a
little from the road. A double carriage
sweep with a snow-clad lawn, stretched
down in front to two large iron gates
which closed the entrance. On the right
side was small wooded thicket, which
led into narrow path between two
neat hedges stretching from the road
to the kitchen door, and forming the
tradesmen's entrance. On the left ran
a lane which led to the stables, and was
not itself within the grounds at all, being
a public, though little used, thorough
fare. Holmes left us standing at the
door, and walked slowly all round the
house, across the front, down the trade
mems path, and so round by the garden
behind stable lane. So long was he that
Mr.. Holder and l went into the din
ing-room and waited by the fire until
he should return. We were sitting
there in silence when the door opened
and young lady came in. She was
rather above the middle height, slim,
with dark hair and eyes, which seemed
the darker against the absolute pallor
of her skin. / do not think that have
ever seen such deadly paleness in a
womans face. Her lips, too, were blood
less, but her eyes were flushed with cry
ing. As she swept silently into the room
she impressed me with greater sense
of grief than the banker had done in the
morning, and it was the more striking
in her as she WAS evidently a woman
of strong character, with immense ca
pacitv for self-restraint. Disregardine
my presence, she went straight to he'
uncle, and passed her hand over his
head with a sweet womanly caress.
"You have given orders that Arthur
should be liberated, have you not, dadg
she asked.
"No, no my girl, the matter mus
be probed to the bottom"
''But l am 30 sure that he is inno

no harm and that you will be sorry fol
having acted 80 harshly."
Why is he silent, then, if he is limo

'Who knows? Perhaps because he wa
20 angry that you should suspect him.
How could l help suspecting hin

coronet in his hand?"
"Oh, but he had only plcKed IL uI

up the night before Mary remarked that
she had seen Lucy just come in, though
she had not had permission to 60 out
Arthur asked his father for money for a
