Regard!*** of th* money involved, the young couple were fond of their invalid aunt and decided to visit her and also investigate the mysterious letter. In th* meantime, Mr*. Welman’* Nurse O'Brien related a etrange incident to District Nurse Hopkin*. The night before, her patient had asked for the old-fashioned picture of a handsome young man ehe kept in her dresser drawer. Gazing at it, the old lady murmured, "Lewis-Lewi* I" Her late husband’s name wa* Henry. Roddy and Elinor arrived at Hunterbury, the Welman estate, and were welcomed by their aunt. Pleased to learn of their engagement, Mrs. Welman asked Elinor if ehe really loved Roddy. “I care for Roddy enough but not too much," the girl answered, afraid to reveal she waa madly in love with him because her main attraction for Roddy wa* her aloofness. At the moment, th* young man in question strolled in the garden, thinking of Elinor and apparently satisfied with hi* lot. Suddenly an odd restleeeneee gripped him. Just then a beautiful, golden-haired girl came toward* him. . A1,4 CHAPTER SEVEN Something gripped him; be stood juite still, a* though fraten into immobility.

Then she went m rather shyly: “I’ve changed, of rourse, since you taw m*.“ He raid: “Yes, you’ve ehanged. (—I wouldn’t have recognized you." He stood staring at her. He did vot bear footsteps behind him. Mary did and turned. Elinor stood motionless a minite. Then she said: "Hello, Mary.” Mary said: "How do you do, Mia* Elinor! It’s nice to see you. Mr*. fV*lmea ha* heen looking forward to your coming down." Elinor said: “Yee-lt’a a long .ime. I—None O'Brien sent me to ooh for you.

Mary said quickly: "Anyway, who cares about that sort of thing nowadays? Indies and gentlemen, and all that!” “It doesn’t matter like It did—no,” Ted assented, but thoughtfully. "All the same, there’s a fetliny. Lord, Mary, you look like a duchess or a countess or something.” Mary said: “That’s not saying much.
