Josselyn family had run the gauntlet

SO that was something to think
about.
And he could make very nice

He wore harness so beautifully.
He cantered and galloped and some
times he almost ran away
At least it was very hard to keep
him back. You had to say whoa" a
great many times, and pull II the
harness. too.
The harness was beautiful one.
It was of many colors and it had been
knitted. 1t was round and strong.
and it had lovely jingling bells upon
it, too.
Sometimes Daddy wouldn't go at all.
You just had to urge him and beg
him.
Once he had tried lying down.
But that time he had got up again

Daddy was running hard with the

Nancy were running after him.
Sometimes he pulled them on

a most magnificent run and walk.
AS they were dashing along and the

The horse was quite astonished by
the sight of such a strange looking

For Daddy was rather strange

The horse became quite excited and
almost went off the road--he went off

CHAPTER XIV

The trial of Thomas Gibbs Josselyn
for the murder of his father was
naturally the journalistic tidbit of the
day. The social standing of the fam
lily, the mystery surrounding the MUIR
der, the odd relationship of the man
and the two women, all these things
were intellectually valuable to city ed
tiers everywhere.
Presently the will of the murdered
man was filed, and caused its own
sensation. After the requests to serv-
ants and charities, and the gifts to
old friends, the widow was to have
her handsome allowance, payable un-
less she remarked, throughout her life,
besides her country home at Wheatley
Hills, and all 1t contained. To the son
certain books and specified silver and
jewels were bequeathed, and a mod
crate sum was to be held in trust for
the little grandson.
All the rest went to the daughter-in
law. More than that, should Lillian
remarry, she was to be given lump
sum, the remainder of her fortune to
revert to Ellen. Ellen heard 1t all
vaguely: she was not thinking of
money in these days. She did not
read the papers that shrieked between
the two oceans that old Thomas Josse-
lyn had trusted her above his wife or
his son.

of the new year, and to Gibbs and to
Ellen as well, much as she had dread
ed it, 1t came as relief. She had Wis
tied him every day, in his cell at the
Mineola jail, and what those visits
had cost her. only Ellen knew.
Every day she must nerve herself
afresh to enter into the stale, cold air,
and must pass the clanking doors and
the watching eyes. She must nerve
herself afresh for the sight of him,
thin, respondent, dishonored She
must breathe the suffocating moral
atmosphere that surrounds the offend
ers, the human who Is felt by other
humans to be dangerous. She must
talk to him, and yet not talk Of the
hideous cloud that pressed so close
over him, and the hideous weight on
their hearts that made them both
afraid they would go mad
She kept him supplied with books,
and sometimes made him read aloud
to her. George was often with him,
full of confidence and courage.
Empty as they were. these hours at
the Jail were Ellen's life. Otherwise
she was hardly conscious that she
lived at all. She sat by the fire with
her aunt, in the evening. talking with
the busy, kindly woman and the old
captain. but not knowing what she
said. She wrote her nightly letter to
Joe or Lizzie, with scalloped kiss
for the boy, and went early to bed. She
rose early, and Joined the old people
at breakfast. Then she aired her
room, and made her bed, and by that
time the little closed car was at the
door. with Torrens at the wheel. Close
ly yelled, although she was really in
different to staring eyes and swapping
cameras. she slipped into the car and
