By ilre. OLIPHAKT.
A few days after the occurrences Just related Mt.h. Trevylian had an accident "—slipping' oi? a step ladder while nailing: up a piec*' of creeper. She twisted her ankle, and the injury, though not aerioos, was snfficif-at to confine her to her room for some tune, "J''-^71
Hence a singnlar change which had taken place in Olive was unremarked by anyone, Madge vraa busy attending to her mother, and Harold Carrington too engrossed by the secret titrable, which hannt«d him day and night, to take heed of her. A strange gnlf r«ee3n|?d also to have widened between the cousins. Formerly, though so unlike, they had at least lived on friendly terms. But now Olive seemed to avoid Madge and to speak to hernalittle as possible—or, if at all, in a taciturn, strained manner— which, when her cousin noticed it, pained her. Still she took no serious heed, attributing it to one of "Olive's odd moods," which would sooner or later pass over.
Meanwhile Olive St. Mauris face grew thin and pale, and her great black eyes burned with unnatural luster from the hqjjows which began to form under them.
She slept little and ate less, her whole appearance being that of a person whose nerves were strung up to the highest pitch, or who was a prey to the most terrible suspense. The atmosphere of the cottage seemed unbearable to her, and she would walk for miles on to the moorland, only stopping when dead beat through fatigue. An awful struggle was going on in her mind. The deed she meditated was one of such black treachery that, unscrupulous as her nature was, It made her pause.
She recalled the many kindnesses Harold had done her, the gentle consideration with which he always treated her, but the evil angel was stronger than the good one. Jealousy and hatred strove for tlio mastery,, and were successful.
Little dreaming of the dire danger which threatened him—a danger worse than any he already knew of—"Harold Harrington was lulled into a sort of false security. He thought he saw a way out of his trouble—difficult, perhaps, and perilous but his was not a nature to shrink from the cost of what he undertook. Madge's love seemed somehow to have brought counsel as well as comfort. No word had been spoken between them since that memorable day that might not have been'heard by all the world. But it was enough to understand each other-x-to bo together.
Harold had been forced to lay aside his determination to leave Trevarpck. In fact, there were now the weightiest reasons why he could not do so,
"Whisht! step softly—he may hear ye and he's sleeping—the first time for .many nights."
The sky brooded darkly over Tr^varTook bay. Only a distant sullen roar, and a faint glimmer of white at the foot of the cliffh, showed whore the angry sen tore and hUhed them in its wrath. A red gleam of light flashed for a moment at the door of Dinah BetallSck's hut, and the old woman peered out into the murky night anxiously. A figure stood without—tlmt of a «mn, who had given th?ee taps at thfe window before Dinah lifted the latch,
1
'Come in ootoe in I Him aA you want to see ain't come, but ho will^ h© will, mire's life. Mun ha' patience and wait a bit," she mumbled, pointing to thelooker close by ttw fire. new comer, a short, burly man, with weather beaten face and strong black beard, dressed in seafaring clothes and with a san'woater pulled wall down ovor his oars, obeyed. "Mun gie mo mnmnat to nwoeten tho waiting, thetu But whore's he—I mean, Mm as you'xn" he began" in low, growling, tones. "Hnshf
She pointed with her thumb backwards towards a door, whieh seemed set in the solid rook. Than diving into a chest, she produced a square stone bottle and a glass. She poured some of tho liquor into the latter and gave It to tho man, who smacked his lips approvingly. "That nevor paid duty, 111 go baiL" he *aid, with a gruff chuckle. "Prime stuff? You've had it a mort o' years, I ivokon for devil at keg has l»een run .ashore at Trevarroek since ^1 was a boy. Ah! those were times." "A still tongue makes a wise head and there's other and fairer ways o" making a bit momey. Your father and iny man were fru ads, John Sholto, and you are about the only one round here 1 can trust. You may have a prickly skin Eke the cht rtnut, but youvm an honest hearted child. When I hoard your boat was off Peturvuce, I walked evoy step the way to you* 1 had a dream—-but never mind, whisht! here he comes. Now you can heaAall."
A low tap at the door interrupted Dinah's spoech. She rose and admitted Harold Oarrlngton, cautioning Mm as the had done John Sholto not to wake the deeper in the inner room. Then she crept away in the darkness of the hut, leaving the t-vo men in low and earnest conversation together.
CHAPTER VIH WiOTTOftK
"You think it can be done, the®? member, money is no object. Any suro you like to name shall be yosrs tr you are mecmstaL* Harold Carringtcm'a voice was strained and eager as hegaaed into the £ac« of his companion. "Dotw! ay. What man has done, man may do.

daring and love of adventare innate all west countrymen, "Capt Jack," as he was familiarly called along the coast, had made many a wild and dangerous journey, that had nothing to do with herring or pilchard fishing: and his smack, the Lively Fanny, was one^of the best built and fastest to be found from the Land's End to the Lizard. "Agreed, then," said Harold, in the same low tones, producing a leathern bag from the breast of his coat. '/But I would rather pay you now one never knows what may happen. In case of success, it wdl have been fairly earned in case of failure, the same," turning paler and his hand trembling slightly, "for you will have done your best. There are five hundred pounds in this bag in gold and notes. If all goes well I wBl make it five hundred more.w
Capt. Jack's eyes grew round and he gasped for breath. A thousand pounds! That were a prize worth winning, indeed, There was, as he had said, no "free trade" worth the naming carried on along the coast now still, here and there a skipper, with daring enough, occasionally made a small private venture of his own.
But the profits on a few boxes of cigars, a bale of gaudy silk handkerchiefs or a keg of raw spirits, secured at infinite risk and trouble, seemed to sink into beggarly insignificance all at once.
A thousand pounds! Why, he was a made man for life. Buxom Molly Trained, the widowed landlady of the Blue Boar at Penzance, would easily be brought to reason then, and he would leave sea going, and settle down as "mine host," in his own snug parlor, with hot rum and water, and„ galore.
Though Capt. Jack still loved adyenture, he was \ot so young as he once had been, and the prospect of a peaceful harbor in which to lay to at the end of his life was attractive.
AH these thoughts flitted rapidly through his mind. Then he struck his horny, tar ingrained fist on the locker with a force that made the bottle and glass ring together, and Pixy, the blade cat, spring, with bristling coat, away from the fire. "I'm your man—and here's my hand ont. What Jack Sholto says—ho means. If the thing is.to be done—it shall be dope." "Good, then. But when? Every moment of delpy means danger," respondt Harold, pointing to the door in the wall, and holding up a warning finger. "To-morrow night, if you like. The smack is juat inside the bay, and the moon rises about midnight. Be here at that time, and leave the rest to me." "Why not now—at once?' Harold's tones were full of anxiety
1
Need we
wart?" "Must,'? growled Sholto, in his beard. "Or "it would ha* suited me well enough to be off before this, I can tell 'ee. But the ebb's going out, and I could not bring her past the Devil's Teeth in such a pitch black night. It waa all I could do to get into the bay." "Havo you a man on
Wb know a»bit too much
about edch other they nanin't play us false, never ieAr," said Cafct. Jack, with a knowing smile. V/ 7 "You can tell them they shall be well paid for th&'r help," said Harold "and now—till to-m'orrow—"farewell, my friend." •'(,
He turned to Dinah, who came slowly forward into the light, holding up the horn lanterd to guide him out, and after a few whispered wowla pr&md scone gold pieces into her hands. ••Shall 1 vafee him? I will if "ee like. It wain't be nuy harm now' heVslept eo long," she whispered, peering-into Barold's face with her sunken eyes. "No, you needn't troubloi" Harold's voioe was cold and hard. "Ofily tell him, when he wakes, that afi 'is ready and the time, 12 to-morrow night"
The old woman nodded assent, and drew bade into the cottage. When she was once more alone she crouched down tiefoare the hearth, her face burled in her hands,'motionless and silent save forithe few muttered, disconnected words wfiich escaped her toothless, puckered mouth. "4A life for a life ay, thatto book says. I shut my ears' listen*, but fhem words has been in fire. I've seen 'em day and night. Mebbe I shan't see 'em no more now, 'A life for a lifts ay,'but if 1 save one, how then?

He spoke kind to me, the bonny chiel his face was like my Ben's she rocked herself to and fro in the silent agony of despair, of whioh the old cottage walls had been eo often the dumb witnesses.

Suddenly Pixy gave a low hiss and a now! and leaped on to her shoulder. She looked up quickly. The cat's green, glaring eyes were fixed an the small window behind her. Her blood curdled in her veins.
A paleface, framed with atom toned elf locks of black hair was pressed close against the din, thick glau. AtJeast so Dinah RetaBack fknoled. BntilVanferiMd instantly, and the old woman, with shudder, cowered cloeer to the firs. The apparition, for so she thought it was,boded no good,aod was abed omwi aa regarded the sqoeaai of lbs morrow*# enterprise. She shook her head aad brooded darkly over what seemed one proof more that tit* com of fate bung over her. •..

ana pushed tSurder.» The fastentng, which was not very strong, gave Way, and the door flew open.
She started back amazed at what she saw. Olive, pale as a ghost, stood in the middle of the floor. Her dress, which appeared soaked and heavy with water, clung round her her hair was disheveled and wet and her hat and jacket lay on the bed, fifa* turned peevishly on Madge. "What on earth did you come bursting into the room like that for? Why didn't you wait for me to open the door?" she asked, crossly, twisting up her damp plaits and turning her face away towards the glass. M"I did knock but what is the matter, Olive? Where can you have been, to get go wet? One would think you had b^i out all night," Madge said.
The latter words were spoken in careless haste but Olive turned on her cousin with such a strange expression in her eyes that she recoiled, frighteqed. "What a mad idea!" she answered scornfully. "And, pray, what should I be out all night for? No such things are, I suspect, more in your line, Miss Madge—sly and demure as you are. I have no lover with whom to hold secret meetings. No I have simply been for a bathe before breakfast, that is all and fuming back I slipped on a bit of wet rock and feel into a pool of sea water. So much for your mare's nest, my innocent minded cousin," she added,a cold sneer on her lips.
Madge, though unsophisticated and gentle, was not without a certain ample dignity of her own. "I do not know what you mean by attacking me like this, Olive but I see, of course, that you have guessed my secret" —she flushed as she spoke. "I am at your mercy for it is useless to try and make you understand that we did not mean to deceive anyone. But Harold must know now that I cannot be silent any longer." Madge was pale and her lips were firmly eat, as she turned to leave.the room. ggf
Olive saw die had gone too farf^'She had not meant to betray herself thus^ but rage had mastered her. Iff ''f "Wait," she said hastily, seizing Madge's gown. "What a little fool you are! Of course, I was only joking. If you are wise you will say nothing to Harold Carrington. »In time all that puzzles you now will be made clear. Some day you will thank mg for" "Olive, wljat do you mean?" Madge was thoroughly alarmed by her wild words and denUeanor. •I— Oh, riothing!" Olive burst into a laugh—hollow, wretched, with no ring of mirth in it. "Go away, and forget ,all I have said. I will keep your secret, never fear."
And with this Madge was forced to be content. On reflection she determined not to tell Harold anything of what had passed. It would only distress him needlessly and had he not hinted to her only yesterday that he hoped soon all neoessity for concealment would be past?
When all

table there was no sign to show how full of electricity the air was, how stoaig|& ""*•—'-tions between thejbrfbjJ^^wee. sr Olivers wo: [ge, fraught with a new and meaning. §gf

The night was still, though a faint ripple broke the dark, even surface of the sea, and a flying sctxd of black, ragged qlouds chased each other over the steel blue sky, hiding from time to time the pale disc of the full moon.
Silently, stealthily the Lively Fanny Stole into the bay her masts and rigging cutting with their sharp lines the moon's white face.
There were steps on Ine sands low voiqps and the grating of a boat's keel on the fihisgJe. Then a soft whistle- sounded three times, and in response, a red light flashed for a moment from the bow of'jthe sma^k, vanishing as quickly.
It was Capt. Jack's signal to the anxious watchers on the sliore. A boat was ready to put off to the smack, bi it were three persons—a man and a boy—the two sailors of whom John Sholto* had spoken to Harold Carrington in. Dinah Bfetallack's hut—and another old man, with flowing white hair and beard, also dressed in a seamafi's rough blue jersey and oilskin hat.
Harold CarHngton, muffled Jn his long dark ulster, and Dinah herself stood on the beach—the latter screening her horn lantern from the wind with her apron.
It was a strange, weird night, and-the scream of a distant curlew seemed like a banshee wailing for the dead.
A few whispered words passed between Harold axfil the old seaman, who sat in the sterxfof the boat will not forget your promise? If
r"You
keep it I shall not gruage anything have dared or sacrificed for you, Harold said in a subdued undertone, that sounded husky and strained.
He held out his hand, and the other pressed it with trembling, nervous grasp. "Indeed I wiQ not, so hdp me God! Harold, old fellow, I swear if I get out of this all right V— He could not finish

I treaties, "Harold" ha3 not move3. but stood gazing seaward. His pale face wore a strange expression of triumph, and a faint smile curved his Hps as towt men—two wearing the uniform of police officers and two in plain clothes—came
Into tho circle of light shed by the lantern. "X think 1 know what your business is," he said, calmly, going up to one of the latter. "You are Inspector Tenner of Penzance, and you h&ve a warrant for the arrest of Hubert Carewe, late manager for the firm of Vanneck & Blackmore, diamond merchants, who was supposed to have gone abroad last July on business for that firm, and, failing to return at the appointed time, was proved to have absconded with a large sum of money he had in his charge. He had, however, in reality, never left England, and has been lying hidden at Trevarroek, hoping to make his escape. Well," he continued deliberately, with a strange inflection in his voice, "your search is ended, Mr. Tenner aad you, Sergt. Clark," turning to the other* man in plain clothes, whom he recognized as a noted London detective, "need fear no resistance on my part. It would, I know, be as foolish as useless. I am ready to accompany you."
The two men stared at each other aghast. Suca utter coolness, such consummate audacity they had never met with in the course of their professional experience.
Clarke recovered himself first. "You have put it correctly, set," he said with a grim smile, "and 1 am bound to say I think you take a sensible view of the matter. I've got a trap waiting round the comer, if you will kindly step this way. No need for these, eh, Inspector?"
As he spoke something bright glittered in the moonlight—a pair of steel handcuffs. "Certainly not. I have not. the least wish to try and escape," said Harold, with the same strange smile. His captors little imagined with what double significance his last words were fraught.
Old Dinah's hut was searched without result, the Witch of Trevarroek standing by, shaking her head and wringing her hands, though the police officers could get nothing out of her to further criminate Harold. |p|
Fearing that the worst might happen, though as yet he guessed nothing of the treacherous means by which his secret had been betrayed, Harold had intrusted Dinah with a letter to deliver in such case to Madge Trevylian. It was merely a few lines implorihg her to believe in hirh and trust him a little longer, however sorely ap*pearances were against him.
As the men left the bay alight flashed again from the Lively Fanny. Harold's heart gave a leap of joy. The boat had reached the smack in safety.
Before starting on his journey to London Harold Carrington made a singular request to Sergt. Clarke.
It jvas that Messrs. Vanneck & Blackmore, his supposed late employ etrs, should be at once apprised of Ids capture^, aph and asked to meet .val .with the .deteoti-
If rather out of course, but per] I can manage it," said the detective, stroking his beard reflectively. "He's a deep card, and no mistake. Wants to do the soft, and thinks they'll let him off if he disgorges the plunder. He can't have made away with much of it in that out of the way hole, trevarroek, "he thought. §11 "You will not regret having granted the request," said Harold.

There was a measured txmmp of footfalls on the sand—distant, but dearly
"Pott for your Hveaf" Harold whispered fierosly. Th6 men obeyed, and Harold, stepping ahno«t wairt high in the water thai teased "*gsd tnaadldBi, wipcH to posh the boat off.

it's no good trying a briber if you
mean that," said Clqrke,an honest enough specimen of his class. "Look here, sir I dont think I ought to talk to you* like ttyLs, only I see that, though^you've got into this scrape, you're a geiitieman and not likely'to take mean advantage of me. My advice tdfyou is make terms fttrfi give back the—you know what. Fve reason to know the parties most concerned won't be hard on you if you do, $nd very likely tho whole thing may be hushed up. I*ve seen a*deal o' life— youH pardon me, sir, eh?"
The officer *ook an involuntary respectful tone in speaking to his prisoner,whom he secretly somewhat admired for bis oooi daring and pluck. "Thanks, my good fellow. I do not think Messrs, Vanneck &? Blackmore will be hard on me." Again the same strange smile crossed his pallid face, but they only thdught it meant bravado.
They were in ttte express, in a ffcrsfe compartment, whirling on Jbhelr way to London. The two men whom the detective had brought with him accompanied them, but Harold's conversation was carried on in such low tones as to be inaudible to them.
If Detective Clarke had been astonished by what had passed, he was doubly so when, a few hours later, after aa interview with the, chief of police and Messrs. Vanneck & Blackmore, Harold Carrington walked out of Scotland Yard a free **A mistake, that id alL No blame to you you are in eve^ way exonerated.

On leaving Scotland Yard Harold Car rington jumped into a hansom, and directed the man to drive as fast as be could to Messrs. Bolton & Barkers', tbs solicitors whose names had appeared in the mysterious advertisement in The Penzance Herald.
The senior partner started when Harold was shewn into his private room, but Ms visitor explained his errand in a few words. When be had done speaking he Md 0 long thin slip of paper on the table. It was a check for five thousand pounds. He then drew another sheet of paoer from an envelope and handed it tc Mr. Bolton, asking him .to receipt and sign it.
It ran thus: Received th^. sum of £5.000, in discharge of all BabQities on tbe part of Mr. Hubert Carewe to tho firm of Vannock Jt Blackmore.

Solicitors to the above. Harold folded it up and put it in his pocket with a sigh^of relief. The cloud that had hung over Jtim for years rolled away as he did so. •"This conduct does you ^tho highest honor. Believe me, I am proud to know your Mr."— began the lawyer. "Carrington, please," interrupted Harold with a smile. "By the by, there is one tiling more I have to request of you. An aaftnymous letter was sent here, after the appearance of your advertisement in the Penzance paper, so Mr. Vanneck told me. He has empowered me to ask you for it."
Harold's voice was stern, for a faint inkling of the truth had begun to dawn on his mind. "We inserted the notice in many local papers, especially those of seaport towns. It was worded carefully, for until all chance was past of Mr. Hubert CSaxewo's reappearance, we did not wish for more publicity than could be helped. An odd coincidence that you should bo—that the likeness should be so striking,"
Mr. Bolton bent a keen glance on Harold. The shrewd old lawyer had at once, divined his secret. 4
Harold saw this, but turned the subject with a distressed look, "The letter?" Ho held out his hand for it. When ho saw tho writing, all the color rushed in a dark red flush to his brow. "Traitress!" he hissed between his strong white teeth, but so low that Mr. Bolton did not hear him. "Thanks," he said quietly," aloud. "Mr. Vanneck said I might have it. Good-by."
In a few moments he was again in the hansom and driving to Cromwell Road, South Kensington, with all speed, "I must see Beatrice and get her to go down to Trevarrook with me, if she will. My poor darling! I cannot bear to think of what she may be suffering. Well, it wiH not be for long and deeply as Olivo has injured me, I will spare her, for Madge's sake. My sweet little love!
