Ifc is a etrnn.yo story. T shaH never tell it while I live --this story of mir.e; but perhflpp, after I am one, some who live after lite will like to read.it. They might have thought ire mad, or believed me giyen to falsehood; but when they fif?e this paper, yellow with time, and signed by one who, no longer dwells on earah, they will take the tale as I mean it. I was named Marjorie Franklin; aad' was born at Kewport over eighty -years ago. There I lived till I was seventeen.
He looked at me. We. passed from the carden and turned toward the beach, and came at; last to the ruins of the old building over which there had been so much talk lately. Then we called ifc .the oW mill. "They say it is rnifnnen old," said I. "And so many lives have rim their course and ended in the tomb,while these stones still remain," he said sadly, "Man dies, and these insensate things outlast him. Yet, while he lives, what a glorious thin j? to he a manr He paused. His eyes glittered in his beautiful white face. "Think of it, beautiful Marjorie," he said. "Think of rac, your cousin Alfred yonnfr, strong as a giant, rich, powerful, and with you for his .bride. You, you bright yong thing, think of a man like that with all before him, and suddenly all is :i?one, and death leads him he knows not whither." ,. His glance, his vcice his words frightened me. "Cousin Albert, arc :yoii ill," I asked. "Perhaps we had better go home." "You shall go homo," answered my cousin. "You swr e, onng, iivinp Ihirn I see fear in your eyj. Von tremble, (rive me one moment more. It is ,?o sweet lieie on earth under the morn with you and love. And ou have, all l.fe before you; give me one moment more." "My beau tif ill cou sin is certai n iy tieranged," J naitl to myself. . "I have not yet saluted you, Marjorie," he said. . Vny 1 not lns your hand, X your betrothed husba'nd 'W i ; .
