THE NIGHT OF YEAR&

CHAPTER X.

HIS CI,AIM.
For the first time in nearly two years Vivia breathed the free air of heaven once more.
The soft moonlight, dancing on the rippling surface of the lake, was a most soothing, cheering sight to hei broken heart.
Tnere was but little conversation daring the ride to the home of Robert Rader.
Vivia's feelings were too full to find utteranoe in words, while Robert and Adams were busily engaged' in rowing the boat, each communing with hia own thoughts.
Rader cottage was reached at last. Mrs. Rader knew nothingof what was transpiring that night, but slept on in peacef nl solitude.
Robert showed his fair charge to a small bedroom in the low chamber overhead.
That night Vivia slept on what seemed to her a bed of down. For the first time in long weeks she rested peacefully.
When she awoke next morning the sun was streaming in at the narrow window.
For the moment the young girl failed to realize her situation. The events of the past night seemed like a horrible dream, from which she had waked to peaceful rest.
On going below, after performing a careful toilet, Vivia was met by Kent Adams alone.
She looked about the room, a questioning glance in her brown eyes. "Robert and bis mother have gone out for a sail on the lake," said Mr. Adams. "1 am glad of it, since I wish to talk to you alone, my dear girl, aud explain, so far as I am able, what may seem strange toyou. Take ft chair, please." vivia sank wonderingly into a seat.
Kent Adams sat down where he could watch her'faca while he talked. Strong emotions filled bis heart, and for a time he was unable to utter a word.
With a powerful effort bo mastered his emotions and said: "Vivia, 1 will begin by asking a few questions, by which we may the sooner arrive at the truth. How long have you known DuO Hardwick "Duff Hardwick "Duff Brady, then, for so be styles himself at present." •'My first memory of Duff Brady dates lmck six years. I have a faint recollection of seoiug him before that time. 1 think became several tirnos to visit the family with whom
I
my the
from
lather had cruelly
wronged him in the long ago, and he intended to have revenge through bis child. Of late, however, he has beaten and starved me because I refused to be his wife. 1 never oould understand why be wanted me to marry him, slnoebe is old enough to be my fathor." "There is a method in it all, Vivia," said Mr. Adams. "Have you any memory of your mother "Yes," murmured Vivia, tears starting to her eyes. "I remember her as a sweet-faced, sorrowing woman. I was vory young wheu I was separated from her. Her palo, sad, woeful face has hauntod me for years—haunts mo still. Duff Brady promised mo that I should noe hor somo time, but he has never kept that promise."
Which he cannot do, for your mother is dead, Vivia," "Dead "Yes but you must not mourn for hor, my child," said Kent Adams, huskily "she was unworthy a single tear. Ora Adams was a deceitful traitor at hoart, Vivia. Sho brought all this woe and trouble upon you she ruined my life uttorlv."
A look of sorrow nnd pain swept the face of the maiden. "Oh, air, I can not Hstenand hear my mother traduced, not even by one who has been so kind to me as you have." "She deserves more than condemnation, Vivia. She was a heartless, wicked woman."
A sudden flash of indignant fire filled the maiden's eyes. "Hnsh J" she cried suddenly, her cheeks glowing witn sudden fire. "The memory 1 hold of my mother is too sacred to be ruthlessly trampled in the dost. I recall that sweet, said, suffering face, bending over me as she held me in her arms, the hot tears fslllug like rain upon my face. "Oh, sir, she suffered untold misery. Hor young life was bowed down under the weight of a sorrow beside which mine is a mere shadow. Oh, the sad, hopeless, despairing cry that foil from her lips when they tore me
her arms and bore me away from her sight forever. I can never forgot that harrowing scene. If you ever knew my mother you could uot speak slightingly of her, never."
The girl broke down utterly then, and sobbed like a little child. A stem, white look settled on the face of Kent Adams. do not blame yoti, Vivia," he said, after the first storm of grief bad swept throngh her weakened frame "bntyou did not, could not know your mother as 1 did, since she was once my wife." "Oncevour wife?" "Yes, bia was my wife and your mother."
The brown eyes dilated
(Stent.
to
their widest
"And yon are my father The words dropped slowly, like falling water, from her white lips. "I am your father, Vivia!"
A dead silence tell between them then. "Brady told me that my father was dead." "That was the wish In his heart. Perhaps he thought so, too, since he attempted to murder me a few nights ago." "He is a bad man.''returned Vivia. "I think it was through his cruelly that my mother died, if she is dead." "She is, she moat be dead," cried Adams, quickly. "lam In no way aorrv that it iafto. Vivia lone, my dear child,
yon know nothing of the harden of guilt that rested on your mother's soul. Pe-haps the torments of a guilty conscience tortured her when she shed bitter tears

lived, but it was
about six years ago that he took me to live with him and his sister. Brady has moved about many times during those six yearn. His longest Btay in one place has been here, something over two years now." "How has ho treated you "Quito well until we came here, since when I have been a close prisoner in an underground room, subject to the extremes tortures. It seems as though I have dlod a thousand deaths during the nast two years." "What explanation did he give for this cruelty?' •He said that
her innocent child."
As he spoke he drew the locket from his pocket, and opening it, laid it in the maiden's hand.
A sudden light flooded the thin, sad face of Vivia. "Do you recognize that face, lone? "Tin my mother's face," said the girl, in a low, choking voice. "My memory tells me that. Oh, sir! where did you get this "That picture was taken only days before the curse came to blighi home," he said bitterly. "In those (h»j«», Vivia, Duff Hardwick was my trusted friend. He bad free access to my home at all times. While smiling in my face, his black heart was plotting against my
ha'^ouTmother,
Vivia, with that sweet
innocent face, was a guilty thing. She received the visits of Duff Hardwick, in my absence, time after time. I had warnings of it, since my housekeeper, the widow Rader, told me all that was going on—all the shameful truth—but I was blinded by love and refused to listen. In fact, I became so increased at what I deemed her meddling that I turned her adrift. The blow fell full quick thereafter.* "One day, after a longer absence than nsual, I found on my return, my home deserted, wife and children all gone, and in their stead a cruel, heartless letter from Ora, my wite, saying that she bad gone with her lover, Duff Hardwick that she never loved me, but had married to please her father, against her own wishes. Oh, Vivia, my child no words of mine can describe the horror and distress that swept my soal at that hour. Had a tbunderboit fallen, I could not have been more dumb-founded, more paralized for the tune. God only knows how I loved, nay, idolized, my pretty girl-wife, how I tried to anticipate her every want, and lived only to make her happy. "After that day a dark night of woeful despair settled over ray life. For many weeks
I lay on the verge of the grave.
Time, however, brought me round. I had lost all interest in the world then. I lived only for revenge on the villain who had wrought all this mystery. "I had then but one true friend left in all the world, the gentle, trusting widow, Paula Rader. She wept with me over iny sorrows. She nursed me back to life and health. She was untiring in her devotion, yet I scorned to notice her. I was very ungrateful, I fear, but my hopes were ruiued, and I went out into the woods a changed man. "Years went by. No word came to me from my wife, but In time a fierce, intense longing seized my heart—a longing to look once more upon my child,If living, and rescue her from the evil influences that surrounded her Jlfe. My search for you has extended through the
two years, Vivia. I found you when least expected. I am thaukrul to God for his blessing so far."
The man paused. Vivia's head rested on bis arm, her slight frame convulsed with the great sobs that swelled up from a sorrowing, burdened heurt.
There was a long silence, unbroken save by the sobs of the wretched Vivia. Kent Adams caressed her waves of dark hair with his hand. "Don't cry, little girl," ho said, soothingly "For your sake, my child, I promise to forgive, though I can never forget your mother's treachery. There is anew life, a life of happiness open before you, and
The maiden struggled to a sitting postijre snddenlv. Brushing the tears from her eyes, she clinched her small hand tightly over Che locket, while a hard, drawn expression touched her face. •Mr. Adams, I am glad to find my father, very thankful for what you have saved me from but I can not accept your Btory of my poor mother's guilt." "What! Do you doubt my words "No but you have been deceived. I believe- I know—that my mother was pure of heart and spotless of soul as one of God's angels."
A sad light filled his eyes. "I can not blame you for loyally to your mother's memory," he saia. sadly "but even your faith, can not alter the 'acts." "No but I imagine that influences have been at work to blind your eyes to ihe truth. Duff Brady Is all that you have painted him—a scheming heartless villain but there is another who may have heiped to blind your eyes to the truth, my father." "Another?" "Yes." "Ido not comprehend?" "No of course not. Where is this lovely, fascinating widow, of whom you have made mention "She will be here soon. This is her home, Vivia,and the young man through whose efforts you were rescued from the hands of Duff Hardwick, is her son."
A shadow crossed the girl's face. "I have heard of the Widow Rader before. She is Duff Brady's friend. I have seen her with him on more than oue occasion." said Vivia, slowly. "Impossible!" exclaimed Adams. "Why she knows not of your existence, for sue told me that you and your mother were both dead." "She might have thought so, since 1 have met her but once In over three years yet I can not reconcile myself to sach belief." "She might have seen you, Vivia, witbont knowing who you were. She supposed you dead in infancy."

"Perhaps bnt Further speech was interrupted by the sound of a hoavy rap on the door.
Vivia uttered a startled scream. The two had been so busily engaged as not to notice the approach of outaiders.
Now, as the girl looked up, she beheld a heavy-bearded face peering in at each of the front windows or the cottage.
What did it mean Kent Adams sprung to the shelf where he had laid his revolver.
As he did so the door was pushed open and several men, stout miners, entered the room, led by Duff Brady. 'Ha, here is my runaway bride now!" cried the miner boss, moving toward Vivia.
The form of Kent Adams blocked the wav suddenly, with a cocked revolver in his band. "Back,insolent dog!" thundered the irate man, "or I'll send a bullet through
Jaughter,
our craven heart. This girl is my and no man shall lay a hand on her except at his peril."
A sneering laugh fell from Brady's lips. "The rights of a husband are stronger than those of a father," sneered the miner boss. "Yoo have laid yourself amenable to the law, Kent Aaams, by stealing my wife. Have a care, or you may feel its force.'* "Liar t" cried Adams, hotly. "Vivia is not your wife!" "Donl be to sure, my brave old salt. Vlria became my lawful wife last evening. Speak to tier she will deny it." •'Speak, Vivia lone apeak and give the lie to this insulUngaooandre!!" cried

Adams, turning toward his daughter. But the young girl did not speak. She grew white to the line, and dung to a chair for support, while her brown eyes dilated with inexpressible horror. "Speak, lone, speak'' again cried Kent Adams.
The maiden's lips were sealed. The horrors of her situation were manifest for the first time. She was indeed, this man's wife, and she could not deny it.
The old spectator stood gazing at the white face and swaying form of his daughter, wonder and alarm on his face. "In Heaven's name, speak and silence the fellow's tongue!" "I can not, oh, I can not!" moaned the half-fainting girl. "8heAcan not deny the truth I buve the proof," sneered Brady. "Come, Vivia, wife come come, you must return with me," and Duff Brady adva need, unresisted, to the side of his wife.
The truth burst upon the dazed brain of the old speculator at last. He sank helpless into a chair, :nd suffered Vivia to be led, unresistingly, from the room.
CHAPTER XI. ANOTHER WARNING.
jt
When Robert and his mother returned, an hour later, they found Kent Adams sitting in the center of the ro« m, with pale, naggard face, his dark fixed'in a vacant stare at the H-«or through which his daughter had been borne by her captor#.
Robert had explained how matters stood to his mother, during their ride, and that woman felt a twinge of conscience at the lie she had tola Kent Ad ams to help Duff Brady along in his villainy, and to further her own plans.
The sight of the old merchant, sitting alone, with that wild, hopeless look on his face, startled them not a little.
Mrs. Rader gained the old man's side quickly, a look of real alarm coming to her beautiful face. "What is it, Mr. Adams? Speak, Kent, and tell us what has happened!" cried the widow, in hurried, trembling tones. "My child!" gasped the speculator. "Your child, your Ionef She is u^t dead, then? I was deceived myself! You have fouud her at last, Kent?" "Only to lose her again!" groaned Ad ams. "To lose her!" cried Robert. "Yes she is gone!" "Whither?" "Duff Hardwick has been here!" "The infernal scoundrel!'' exclaimed the youth "How long have they been g°ne?" "An hour or more." "We must pursue the villain at once. He attempted to murder you, Mr. Adams. I will get out a warrant for his arrest."
The old speculator seemed perfectly helpless for the time. His powers of will had suddenly deserted nim.
He shook his heatf slowly, sadly "No use," said Adams. "1 could prove nothing against him. He has many friends among the miners who would swear him clear in no time." "But Vivia? Can he not be punished for this high-handed outrage against her and'you? What right has he to her? You are her father he is not oven her guardian. What has come over you Mr. Adams? Have your troubles completely crushed your powers?"},
1
Adams rose to his feet. There was a wild, restless, hopeless look in his eyes, as though doom had just been pronounced against him for some high crime. "You do not understand, Robert," said the old man, feebly. "Duff Hardwick ha» a better ..right to Vivja.th$p I have." "Aro you crazy?" "No but Duff Hardwick is Vivia's husband!"
Robert starled suddenly at these words from his friend. "For Heaven's sake, don't believe that story!" cried Robert, walking the floor and wringing his hands. "It's all a sham, a lie, concocted for the occasion by that villain, Hardwick." "It's only too true!'' groaned Adams.
They were married last, evening. I /as decieved by Vivia. She has chosen her own path, and must walk therein now." "What do you mean?" a look of doubt and horror coming to the face of the warm-hearted Robert. "I mean that my child has linked her name to that of Duff Hardwick, my bitterest enemy." "But you know she never did so willingly." •I do not know it. She would not deny that she was Hardwifek's lawful wife. She went with him willingly. She is like her mother, false as Hades at heart. Heaven help me now that my last hope is crushed forever!"
Kent Adams sank into a seat once mere, burying his face in his hands, his whole frame trembling fit.
A look of indignation and sorrow filled the eyes of young Rader as he irazed upon the bowed form of the old man.
Truly, his troubles had well nigh unsettled his mind. Mrs. Rader laid her soft hand on the old man's bowed head, a misty liglit coming to her black eyes. "Don't mourn for one so unworthy,w she said, softly. "Poor Vivia has ner mother's nature. It's not her fault that this is so."
Adams raised his head slowly "Don't speak of that vile woman,"he said, sharply. "Don approacn me at all. All women are alike, deceitful and heartless. I'll never trust one again, never!"
A long, quivering sigh fell on his ear. Hot tears started to the widow's eyes. "Forgive me!" he cried, suddenly, his heart touched at this exhibition ot feeling on the part of the woman who bad befriended him. "I meant not to wound your feelings, Paula."
She dropped her head on his ahonlder, sobbing silently. "All—all women are not alike," she murmured through her tears.
He was touched at seeing this beautiful woman in tears. There was a soft spot in his heart that warmed toward her wondroasly. "No, no, Pau?a, I recall those harsh words," he stammered, lacing bis hand on her waving masses oil black
hair,
You are better than most PAula." "Yet aot good enough to be trusted." "Yes, I would trust you
women
Robert stamped heavily on the floor. "This is no time for nonsense," be said, bluntly. "We must rescue Vivia from the clutches of Duff Brady. Will you assist me, Mr. Adams?*' "Oh, Robert! bow can you talk so?** said his mother, looking up through her not understand that
lean. "Can you Mr. Adams baa no power over his daughter now? bhe has chosen,very unwisely, perhaps, yet it is too late to in* terfere now.
I
advise yon not to meddle
with another man's wife. Vivia is nothing to you.M The youth gazed sharply into the face of the speculator. lie saw how completely was the old
I
man under the influence of his artful mother. With an angry imprecation, he turned on his heel and rushed from the room.
Outside, be ran suddenly against a small, misshapen figure. The peddler uttered a gasping cry, as be staggered from the effects of the concussion.
After a few gasps for breath, the peddler found his voice. "So this is the way you treat your betters, young man,"exclaimed the hunchback, indignantly.
The keen eyes of the peddler searched the youthful race. "You were mad, eh?" with a low, disagreeable laugh. "I was, for a truth, old man." "What excited you so, Mr. Rader?"'
In a few words Robert related what had occurred in the house. A wild glare stole suddenly into the eyes of the hunchback. "The marriage is a sham," snapped the peddler, shortly. "God pity the woman who must bow down as a slave under the name of Mrs. Brady. You wont desert the poor, persecuted girl, Mr. Rader?" ^'Indeed, I will not. You rendered us a good turn last night, Blundon perhaps you will assist me again. You shall be well paid for it." "Don't speak oflpay. A good deed is its Own reward. Remember that, my bov," returned the old ^man. "Vivia Adams is too sweet a girl to serve in the house of a devil like Duff Brady. I will help you to the bitter en), Mr. Rader."
Blundom stooped and raised his little tin box from the ground, where it had fallen when the collision occurred. "Where are you going now, Blundom?" "Into the house mayhap I Can sell your good mother some leetle jewelery to-day."

The door opened and closed. The peddler was gone, but his stinging, whispered words bad bad their effect.

"But "I understand. Nothing can be done before night. I will be with you then,'' grunted the old peddler. "1 hate Duff rady, hate him, nate him! You understand? I'm in with you to the death."
With this eccentric speach, the hunchback "hobbled to the door, and opened it without the ceremony of knocking.
Mrs. Rader, sat with her head resting against Kent Adam's bosom when the peddler entered so unceremoniously.
She started up quickly, blushing as the ill-shapen old man crossed the threshhold.
The wild, insane light shown in the peddlers eyes as he noted the little tableau. "What moans this intrusion?" demanded the widow, severely.
The peddlorwas down on bis knees on the floor ft)tabling with the lid of his box. "I must show the pretty lad^ some lettle jewelry to-day," he said, in his cracked, shacked voice. "I know she will buy when *he sees what nice sets I have."
Mrs. Rader frowned with vexation. "I want none of your jewelry to-day," she said, curtly.
He opened his box, however, and displayed some really rich set of jewelry. "Now what says my lady?" "They are very pretty," she said, "but I can't afford to purchase." "I don't think the nice gentleman would allow madam to deplete her purse. He will buy, I'm sure.'1'
But Kent Adams heard not a word the peddler uttered. He was gazing into vacancy, his mind occupied with other things.
As no answer was vouchsafed to the last remarks of the old hunchback, he closed the lid of the box with a bang, lie next moment he rose to his feet
