He went that nisrht to th "Cote Dorlon" tavern where he drank heavily, quarrelled recklessly with some rrus?h river-drivers and was kicked enseles nd flunff Into the river. Just nt th?:t moment J Portugals. on a raft opposite the tavern, heard , th scuffle ami the splash.

Taking him to hl.s hut on Vadrome mountain, near Chaudiere Parish, he nursed him seven months till he was restored to health, but with bis memory completely gone. After the cure's brother, M. Loisel, a -killed Mirgeon operated en him his memory returned. He did not know Jo, but his eye chanced to fall on a newspaper which told of his own death, of the marriage, of his wife to a former admirer, and accused him of having embezzled the trust money. What was he to elo? lie could ii t go back even to clear himself. He decided to remain unknown, as Charles Mallard. In Chaudiere. The village postmistress. Rosalie Kvanturel. a charming girl of tine family and convent education, made his :m .juaintance by bringing up to him a parcel pest package from the sur-e-eon. Charley became apprentice b the elderly crotchety tailor, Louis Trudel. and went to llvo with him. BouIh wnn suspicious of him because he was an infidel, and determined to show him a sign from heaven so as to convert him. He stole from the church door the little iron cross blessed by the pope, and lat one night after Charley had gone to bed. heated it red-hot, ard rushing upstairs, dropped It on Charley's bare chest. Itosallo from 'he postoffice opposite noticed a h rht under the tailor's door at that ur.u-.ual h"tir and suspecting something wrong saw through tho shuti.ts wliat the man was doing.

Rostlio took the cross to the post;fi e and afterwards restored it to tlie church door. Chaudiere be!ed that the tailor's death was : to the infidel and was ready to :r.o' him, but the court took his i art. and urtred the people to pray th..f he mitrht be brought into the f.dd. Charley lived on in the tailor's v.v,. and continued Iiis business, .r.g m'-t of his enrnings to the r and the sick and fighting the V lemon drink which frequently ass i:ed him.
