Yet 1 could see, from remarks he n ow and again made, that the thought lingered in his m ind, and I began t o fear lest, some day, he might put it into practical shape, when the anxieties attend:o>.nt on money-makin~ or money-losing might be ours. . It was l!ome months after our conversation that old ·R euben Dyke, a well-known character in the village of Draycot, came to the Hall. He wanted to see the ma.st er on important .b usiness, h e said. This old Reuben was the greatest gossip of the place-the .a le·house oracle-meddler in everyone's business, and unsolicited .adviser·in-general to the little' world around him. Re was a great authority among t he villagers, many of whom wouln have backed hu opinion against t he united wisdom of a Daniel and a Solomon . His t alk and broad Somerset accent al ways amused us, and, it may be, i nsured him a better ..reception than h is virtues merit· ed. · To .da y he entered the room with an indescribable lock of myst ery and secrecy Then they told me the right seam lrnd been found'-·walter was radiant. Oui of the first money gained he would send Thomas D~vies and Davies Thomas a hundred apiece, as an extra recognition due to their skill and good counsel Lar~er sum1,1 than before were furnished by our financial friends, who came to the Hall once or twice, and were, I thought, very rude and familiar in their manner. Machinery and engines were erect.. d, more men engaged, anti in time, l(reat black heaps began to accumulate, and grimy black faces met me at every turn. Our peaceful and beautiful home was so changed that I began to loathe what ha.Ii once been the dearest spot on eart.h' to me, and to long for change of air and scene. Money set>med always ·being paid away -largo sums that frightened me. But was ( not only a woman, who knew nothing of bnsir.ess ! Y "t all these grievances were nothing to the grief I felt at seeing the change in my darling's face. , Every week I noticed an alteration· Gradually, a cloud of care seemed settling down on his once gay nature, and I knew hi·s mind was an:xiovs and ill at ease. Ho grew tinner ; his dark hair showed ·signs of permatrire grayness; his slt>llp w11.s often restless and U'!Jrefreshing. · Though now, as he ever had bee11, kind · and gentle to me, at times wit~ others he was moody, silent, and evidently worried, All the brightness of youth appeared to be leaving him, so much eo, that my heart ached to eee him, and I felt that I could bear · it. no longer. I would l~arn the worst lie had to tell me, claiming my right as' a true wife to share trouble as welJ as joy with my husband. · The confidence 1 was resolved t<> claim came unasked for. One evening ·w,.Jtt>r returned ho1ne and t.hrew himself into a clutir, apparently utterly broken down. He covered his eyes with his hands and sobbed bitterly. I knelt at his mde and my arms were round him. Then he told me all-I need no t give the details. The bare truth was t.liis : After all the money spent, . the coal was of such poor qualit.y that every ton sold was sold at a loss. .And more money . than I bad eve!'. imagined had been expended. Of course h e had been cheated- I !mew he was being cheated the moment I saw the fa~ea of the men who had lent him the money he wanted ; but there was no help for · it, now. Messrs. L ea.ch and V incent claimed, for advances, costs and interest, the enor· mous sum of close upon ten thousand pounds. Walter, had just. come from Bristol, where these men c»rried. oil busi· ness, and after a ~tormy interview with them, had been informed that unless the amount was paid by Saturday, house, lands, and everything would be ·at once advertised for sale- and to-day was Wednesday! I k'.new nothing of law ; but, ev~n to my ignorance, this sudden demand an<l swift procedure seemed.unusual. · "B.u t can they do it?" I as1' ed. "Yes, 1 am afraid they can. Months a.go, when they made me a large advance they gave me qotioe to pay the mortgage off. 1t was a mere ma.'tter of form, they said ; but now they · will act upon it. They ate thorough-going rogues, and I believe- have some scheme in their heads hy which they fancy it possible to get absolut e possession of the -whole estate.' "But, .Walter dear, the estate must be worth thousands · m ore th,m that amount." "Oh yes, 1 can get the money easily enough. But not in three days. It will cut my heart even·'to see ·it all advertised, although doubtless the sale may be stppped." '·Why not go to that nice olq gent~ e man, Mr. M:i.inwaring?" ( aug~ ested. ··You always call him your family s6-' licitoi.'. He will help you, I am s.u re." '. 'That is just what I it·t tind doing. I shall go to London to-morrow, and ·show him exactly how I stand, and beg as a great favor that I may have the money a~ once. vVhen 1 return I will give orders fllr all the men to be dis9harged and the machinery sold. 'fher e s})a.11 be an end of it before it makes an end of me." I was almost hysterical with joy as I heard his last words. "Oh. my love !" I cried. " It will all come right wich us yet. Vv e are after all only half ruined. We can let the Hall and go abroad fo r several years. D on 't trouble a.bout it any more.
