CHAPTER II. One of the newly-fashioned hunk. boards was creeping down the mountain- side toward the close of a bright May afternoon. The two finely-matted horses were allowed to go at a slow walk while the occupants of the carriage watched the gorgeous landscape that was everwhere touched with the lovely colors of a spring sunset.

A few minutes and they drew up before a small, but rather pretty cottage, surrounded by lilacs and sltheas. It had been built for one of the superintendents, and as a family has occupied it most of ‘he time, was in a tolerable state of preservation. Ross had had it painted and furnished, and sent a woman in 1 advance to have everything ready for their arrival. She was to act as house- keeper and maid-of-all-work. ’ ‘- 1“”: “no“ nrenared in ‘he Bucrv- â€"â€" .â€" A cozy supper had been prepared. 1n mu little sitting-room, and after they hed taken off their wraps and stood for a moment before the fire-place to remove the chill, they sat down to their first meal in the new home.

An odd number of the Chronicle, containing a notice of the mill property, had first given him the idea. But once entertained it grew more attrac- tive day by day. Thrown on his own resources, without hope of aid from his father, and little saved from his ailm- ance, Brexam offered atemporary asylum. Living would be cheap and, possibly, he might be able to do something with the mill property. At least it would be worth the trialâ€"and nothing else seemed to efler.
