night, Ann.

I'CSSNys
Ann could not tell how much her
guardian surmised of her feeling for
Densley, but she knew it was for her
sake that he, in the absence of anyone
in authority, took charge Of his neigh
boris house, with its sinister knot Of
Grape on the silver knocker. 1t was
he who notified the inheriting brother
in Detroit, and who made the arrange
ments for the funeral. although he
left it to her to see that the house
was ready for the services.
Only once did she venture into the
dear familiarity of the upper front
room the blinds had been closed, and
thin gray light pervaded the spacious
white place. Densley lay as she had
seen him last, except that the eager
blue eyes, which had always followed
her persistently, were closed; it was
strange not to meet their shining re-
Spouse. His hands were folded
on his breast; they were pitiably thin,
She put out her own hand to
touch them, but shrank back from
their cold response. He looked
sad, she thought, and older. Now that
he had nothing to give her he was
subtly changed. He had loved her
very beautifully, she knew, but it
seemed a curiously long time ago, and
she wondered, as she stood, glowing,
above him, if she really loved him.
What was love, she ques-
toned piteously, her eyes fixed on that
craven face as on an oracle. She could
not tell, nor could Densley Howard
now enlighten her.
One thing, however, she did know,
and that was that she must break i'm
mediately with Hendricks Renneslyer.
She went straight to her own room,
after this mute farewell, and, sitting
sternly upright before her little desk
she wrote her letter to him.
"And so, dear Hendricks" she fin
ished, 81 cannot marry you, because
know, now, that do not love you, and
no one could be sorrier than I am
about it."
The specter of her guardians disap
pointment stalked in vain before heI

landt all about it when he came in
had he not forestalled her with aston
ishing news of his own.
