CHAPTER XVI. ', TUB DIAMOND RING.*
I' "Virginia, now that you have become Reconciled to your husband, I have an»tber matter to lay before you," said I Warrin Uren fella, as tbe father and [daughter sat together in the parlor, no Pettier person being present.
Virginia, who haa been silent for some iiirne, her tboughts reverting to tbe bandI some, brave, though mUguided Orville I Kenwood, looked up with a start.
4,Did
you Npeak, fa.her?
"Yes.' He then repeated bis words. "I am all attention, father, said Virginia.
The old man brought bis chair to the 1 aide of bis daughter, and drew tbe dia •Bond ring he bad found from his jpocket. "Virginia, I found this ring in your room the evening of your mad fl.ght.
Where did it come from?" The voice of tbe old man trembled a ttle as be put the question
Virginia examined tbe ring curiously. "Why, I do believe that lit tbe ring that Irma dropped in my room. "IrmaT "Tbe girl who came to me with that woful story that cams near driving me to death."
A
troubled look swept tbe faoe of Oreuffllls. "That poor, foolish girl had the ring?" "Yes/ "1 low came she by It?" "I can't explain, only that she said it was her engagement ring, tbe one "I understand," interrupted tbe old man, in a tremor of excitement. "Virginia, that ring was once mine.' "Isit possible? "1 can not understand bow that crazy girl came by it?" "She seemed to tbink this ring proof •f ber marriage." "Poor, deluded creature," murmured tbe old man. lie rose to hl« feet and paced the lioor with corrugated brown and unsteady gait. {Suddenly bo cauie to a stop in front of bis daughter. "Virginia," ho said, slowly, "that brings up old memories. It carries me hack to iny young days wheu I was tirst entering the world of business, full of high hopos RIKI aspirations. The day that I placed that ring on Matilda Oresham's iluger was the happiest day of my life "She was my mother," murmured Virginia, softly. "Will you tell me of lier, father?"
The old man's face was very.paleashe sank into a seat oticu more. "Virginia, I have never told you of the past—of your mother?" 5 "Never."
You have Questioned me ofUimes, but 1 havo refused to speak ot tbe pa&t. Do you remember your mother, Virginia?" "I havo a faint recollection of a sweetfaced, pleasant woman, who used to «are*« me fondly at times," returned the maiden. "1 remember the last time I saw her. She came and took me iu ber lap, kissing me tonderly,while hot tears ratimi down on my baby face. Mhesaid noun-thing about her nad lot, then she was gone! That was the last memory rf that scene enshrlued in my heart. That woman was iny mother?" "She was vour mother, Virginia," groaned (ironfalls. "What sad fate sent ber from her homo? I know that she was pure and good——" "As the angels," cried tho old man. "Virginia, I will unburden my sorrow to you. 1 CAII not keep it longer secreted." Will you listeu, Virginia, and not •urso your father for tho villain he is?" "I will listen, father."
The old man bowed his head, and struggled for some minutes to quell the •motions that inastored him.
After a time he sat upright, pale, rigid, inwardly stirred snd racked with torture, outwardly caitu and serene. "Many years ago," commenced the merchant, "1 was a clerk in ono of the wholesale establishments in tbe city of Kow York. I was very ambitious, and laid aside my earnings until had several thousand dollars In bank. It was then I met Matilda Urosham, a beautiful •owing girl, poor but proud, possessing most tuT)le qualities of head and heart. "1 «oou learned to love the poor, sewing girl, and was not long in finding that tuv love was returned. Six months after meeting Miss Uresham, we were married. I purchased a neat cottage, and furnUhed it plainly. For four years we lead a happy existence. During that time two children were born to us— girls. You were the first born, fettle
Brownie' was a baby, scarcely a y©ar old, when trouble came, and the greeneyed monster came to blast our happy home forever.
I was naturilly of a passionate, jealous disposition, and never saw gentlemen smile upon my wife without experiencing a jealous pang.
MOni«
cvttningf on returning from thf
•tore, I f.mnd a wan ensconced in my sitting room, apparently baring a coxy chat with my wife. The man was coarsely dressed, yet alarmingly handsome. Tbe minute I entered, the man rose In evident confusion and hurriedly departed. That night we had our first quarrel. I questioned Matilda in jealous anger. She was proud, and felt insulted at my suspicions, and refused an explanation.
Or
am
course I was more than
ever convinced that all was not right. I rememliered my wife's lowly calling before marriage,' and conjured up phantoms of awful import,* rendering me nearlvetaiy for the time. "After that, my mind was deeply reubled. 1 was foolish enough to set a spy upon nsy wife, no less a personage than Mrs. Barnwell, your husbands mother, who then, a widow as now. kept a boarding house, where I had roomed before mv marriage. "That woman discovered many things detrimental to my wife's c^nracter. 1 soon tainted that the man I me* in tnv cottage home was a freqoent visitor during my absence. Yon can «udlr ondemand the result of »he espionage I emploved. "The Widow Nam well cam* to me ooe evening and informed me that I would find proof of my wife's guilt if I would hasten home at once. I did so and crept
in bv aback way. The curtains of the to brave bis danger sitting-room were closely drawn, the "Tbis atory of your*

livid with rage, and confronted tie I guilty pair. •4Tben was confusion worse confounded. My wife (screamed and clung to her companion in "terror. I cannot tell all that happened. I dealt the man a blow that felled bim to tbe floor. My wife fell at my feel in a paroxysm of fright. a

"That same evening my wife came to me with 'Brownie' in ber arms, pale, weak and trembling, to offer an explanation of what 1 bed teen. 1 silenced ber words with angry denunciation. I ordered ber to leave my presence forever. Tbt cottage she might have, and there live with tbe man she bad chosen iu my place. I dare not repeat the vile language I heaped upon her bead. Her sensitive nature was cut and gashed to tbe quick. She staggered from me with her babe in ber arms, not, however, until she bad given you oue last caress, She disappeared from my life forever from that uight. Whether she is dead or living 1 know not, only, that her I pale, pleading face bas haunted me durlug all the long years that have since I elapsed, I remained in Kew York a few I vears, obtained a bill of divoroe on tbe plea of desertion, and Anally sought new fields. I have been very fortunate in this city, but true happiness has not been mine since Matilda liresham passed out from my life forever. "I
only fifty, yet 1 am called an
old man, old through trouble only I have often, since that sad time, repented m,v inad rashness. 1 believe now that
wife might have explained everyling aatlsfactorily had I but cured my listened to ber
tb impetuous temper and story."
The old man paused, quite overcome with emotion. Virginia bad bowed her head upon her fathers arm, and was weeping Hilently.
For nearly an hour silence reigned in the room. Mr. Oretifel's was tiie first to speak "Virginia, can you wonder that tbe Hlght of this ring, tho heart with our names united, brings* back the past, aud opens tbe old, wo'ul wounds again "No, no," tobbed Virginia. "H you have suffered, dear father and poor mamma!" "Ay, poor Matilda Heaven granted her HurcBase from sorrow long ago."' "But this ring!" cried Virginia, "this may lead to some knowledge of the whereabout of my poor mother." "htranger things have happened. We must iind that poor, demented girl who left tbe ring,'' returned tbe old man. "Perhaps Angus can assist us." "Perhaps so.
That eventful day drew to a close at last. Night, somber, and rendered gloomy by a soft, misty rain, settled once more over the city.
A carriage drove up to- Springwood and a richly attired gentleman alighted. In the parlor once more husband and frife met. "1 have come for yon, Virginia are you ready?" questioned Barnwell, as he atood once more in the presence of his newly-made wife.
A gloomy feeling held possession of Virginia Urenfells. Tne old doubts and fears were upon ber once more. "You will grant me no more time, Angus?" "More time! Virginia, you are playwlth tnv feelings most cruelly, if you are stlil undecided,then its better to separate forever. I will not live with a discontented, unloving wife I" cried the man, bitterly.
Virginia's blue eyes filled with tears. She remembered bow the life of her parents had been clouded by distrust and suspicion, and resolved that no act of hers should reuder tbe life of another miserable. "1 will be ready in a minute," she said, hastily leaving the room.
Wbeii «ibo returned, her father accompanied her. She was dressed for tho ride, and laid her soft, gloved band confidingly in that of ben husband. "I am ready now, Angus,"%he said, in a low tone.
She was utterly calm, yot her face was pale as death as sbe suffered ber husband to lead her the door.
CHAPTER XVII. CONCLUSION.
As Virginia and her husband stood under the gas-jets iu the outer door way, a carriage dashed up to the gate. "Come, let us hurry, Virginia, before those visitors enter," said Barnwell.
Virginia's eves were riveted on the carriage and Its occupants, two women and a man, who were just alighting. That slender woman in black was not unfamiliar to Virginia. Sbo uttered a quick cry, and darted back into tbe parlor. "Father, that woman is coming,is be re now I" exclaimed Virginia, earnestly. "Woman "Yee Irma, the demented girl, Who left tbe ring."
Mr. Grenfells started forward, trembling excitedly. Angus Barnwell followed Virginia into the parlor and heard her words. "Irma coming! Impossible mottured the villain uneasily*
Sbe was dead, he thought she could not be here in toe flesh. Tbe outer door stood open.
Unannounced, tbe three visitors entered *be hall, and pushed their way to tbe parlor, Irma Dowel ahead, her mother aud uncle bringing up the rear. "I bare found you, Angus,at last," cried the forest-girl, throwing back her veil and confronting ber dastard hueband. "Great Heaven, It K* Irma!" exclaimed Barnwell, growing suddenly white about the Hps. "Ay, it's Irma, your wife,base villain! You lied to me wofnlly a few nights ago. With a decoy letter, yoo led me to a secluded spot, and your tool, Jade Bike, tbe fisherman, attempted my life. I was ssv«d by my uncle. Jode Bike is dead .and your plan to destroy mphas failed. I am your wife, Angus Barnwell, dray it if yoo dare!"
The situation was dramatic in the extreme. Mr. tireofeii* was dumbfounded.
Virginia grew faint, and tottered 16 chair. A hoarse laugh Ml from tbe lips of Angus Barn welt. "Poor* foolish girl be cried, trying

Jrma grew white as death, Ere she could speak, Hiram Dowel thrust ber aside and confronted tbe beartlesd profligate, a look of intense loathing and of stern determination on bia face. "Noel Nelworne, alia* Angus Barnwell, you know my niece has spoken tbe truth. At uiy bouse you two were married last June. 1 have the proof Deny this, and I'll let out your craven blooa here in this room.'
A revolver flashed in tbe gaslight, the eye of Hiram Dowel glancing along the barrel. "Would you murder me?" gasped Barnwell. 1 11 shoot you down aa I would a
Barnwell turned a pleading look toward Grenfells. He saw that be could expect no help from that source. "Do you acknowledge Irma as your wife?"
There was no mercy in those stern eyes. Angus Barnwell realized that all was lost. "Yes he grasped, in a scarcely audible tone. "That girl is my wife, but— but—" 5? -well?" "I thought her dead." '•f&w "You attempted ber murder I I saved ber, and she is now here to confront you, aud accuse you of your villainy."
Barnwell sank into a seat with a deepairing groan. "You have deceived tbis gentleman and bis daughter, and came near ruining a trusting girl. I am thankful that I came lu time to save Virginia Grenfells from such a fate."
While tbis dramatio scene was being enacted, Mrs. Dowel bad drawn aside, and stood half reclining against the heavily-draped window, gazing with wild, glowing, feverish eyes into the face of Virginia.
Virginia suddenly caught sight of those glowing eyes, and a nervous chill shot through ber frame.
Siie shuddered, and drew away. "You fear me, Virginia jou hate me! You are like your lather, remorseless, unrelenting yet you are my child, my oldest born, aud I will love you in spite of him, in piteof all."
The womau's impassioned words rang out clear aud dtatiuct, while an insane glare abone from ber eyes.
Virginia shrank farther and farther away. All eyes were turned upon them.
There was a striking resemblance between tbe two. Virginia, my child, come to me, come to your mother once, only once, then I cau die iu peace,' cried the woman, in a hu»kv voice. "What does tbis mean?" exclaimed Grenfells, springing to his feet and confronting Mrs. Dowel. "Great Heaven! 'tis Matilda, my wife!" "Your wife!" with a shudder and backward step. "Not your wife, old man, not your wife no, no, Heaven forbid
Tbe old merchant trembled like a leaf in the storm. He could see traces of the old, beautiful Matilda Gresbam in the wftri face ot Mrs. Dowel, yet the change wrought by time aud suffering had left a sad wreca indeed
You are right," gioaned the old merchant. "With my own hand I struck down our marriage tie." "With your own band you struck down simple,* honest Hiram Gresbam, simply because he sought interviews with bis own and onljMrister puknown to ber jealous, tyraunical husband. Our meetiugs were secret because Ikuew that you would feel ashamed to own a commonday laborer as your relative. You drove Matilda from you like tbe brutal coward that you were, and I, in my young manhood, took ber aud her youngest child, Irma, under my protecting care. In the west we found a home, but my poor sister never recovered from the shame and disgrace heaped upon her by the jealous tyiant sbe once so fondly loved. "I once vowed vengeance. I forego it now in consideration of Matilda's feelings. Under tbe name of Dowel, our middle name, we have lived for many years. It seems that through the villainy of yonder scoundrel, we have been brought face to face onco more."
Hiram Dowel had turned from contemplating the crashed and helpless Barnwell, and riveted a stern, rebuking gaze upon tbe face of the old merchant, as he uttered the words above recorded.
Tbe light of a revelation dawned upon the brain of Warren Grenfells. He tottered forward, with extended bands, toward Irma's mother. "1 was a villain, a blind fool then Can you forgive and forget, Matilda Anythingyouaskof me that I will do."
Tbe proud woman refused his offered friendship. "I forgave long ago, but I can never forget," cried Matilda Gresham. "Then there is no hope for me," groaned the old man. "When you thrust me out into the world to live or die, long years ago, I left hope behind. Love I have, but only Tor my children and for my brother Hiram," returned the woman, gravely, yet firmly.
With a despairing groan, Warren Grenfells reeled and fell floor.
Just then another carriage dashed up to the gate and several men alighted. Hiram Gresbam turned to Grenfells, lifted bim from tbe floor and laid bim gently on the sofa, where Virginia knelt over hire In agony of fear.
By tbii time, several men bad gained entrance to the room. "Ralph Gerard 1" exclaimed Barnwell, white with new terror. "Can the grave give up its dead "I have returned to convict you of attempted murder, as well as other crimes." cried young Gerard.
Orville Kenwood and a police officer accompanied Gerard. "That is the man," said Kenwood, pointing to Barnwell.
In lese time than we employ in relating it, tbe villainous Barnwell was handcuffed and led away.
"You are not, then, one of the smugglers, Orville TM It was Virginia put this question four weeks later to the young man who bad once rescued ber from a watery grave. "No," returned Kenwood. "Gerard and myself were released on tbe next morning after our arrest, as Dick and bis companion cleared us of all complicity with them." "What became of Dick Worlong "He escaped with a heavy fine, which Gerard assisted in paying. He has abandoned smuggling forsvar, and gone on to a farm in Canada."
Kenwood was well received at the Grenfells mansion now. He had proven himself a man of true merit, and Mr. X*renfells smiled upon tbe growing intimacy between Virginia and tbe youth.
One week after Angus Barnwells confinement in tbe dty prison, and ten days before the session of court, he was found dead in his cell. Wbat was tbe
aa best he could, cause of death no one ever knew, but he wont go down, was dead, and that saved the expense of a trial.
Barnwell's property fell into the hands of creditors, and the scheming widow was reduced to poverty once more.
poverty
One year later, a quiet wedding party are assembled at Springwood. Two couples are united in marriage—Kenwood and Virginia, Balph Geraid and Irma.
For the first time since the revelations of that night wnen Angus Barnwell fell Matilda Gresham's shadow darkens the walls of the Grenfells mansion. Nothing but tbe wish of her daughters, Vir-
Sere
inia and Irma, would have brought her noW. After the marriage, Matilda Gresham stands once more iu the presence of her divorced busbai.d. His pleading words have once again filled her ears. She is immovable,however, although his pale, haggard, suffering face proves thesiucenty of bis words, the intensity of his repentance for the wrong he once inflicted. "For my sake, dear mother," pleads Virginia, suddenly appearing upon the scene.
The soft-spoken words bring aglow of tenderness to tbe woman's eyes. "And I, too, add my voice in behalf of my dear father,'' cries Irma, stealing up beside tbe old merchant.
Matilda Gresbam wavers. "'Tis best sd. It will please the children, and you wi'l be better satisfied,'' says Hiram Gresham in the ear of his trembling sister.
Tbis is the last deciding straw. Warren Grenfells ana Matilda-Gres-bam are reunited after lung yeass of separation. Tbe marriage is blessed by tbe bappy tears of the sisters, and gilded with the sunshine of joyous smiles.
Hiram—Uncle Hiram—is a partner with Warren Grenfells ia the mercantile trade.
