The small market town of Northam, fonc miles distant, was sleepy and primitive, never awakening from its slumbers save on the weekly market day. It had its parson, its doctor, and its lawyer--Harry Leete; all three of them being nearly as simple as the farmers. Not simple in the point of in­ tellect, it must be understood; but as to life and manners. This Thursday was market day. James " Into Nortliam! day."

Dinah Ann herself, the speaker's wife, having strolled down the garden in the sweet stillness of the summer night, •. heard these suggestive words as the gig pulled up at the gate, and her husband descended from it. She was a pleasing little woman of seven or eight and thirty, with dark brown eyes, a bright, fresh fafce, and a natural propensity to take her own way, in the house and out of. it. Drawing back from the gate behind the '^ell-kept hawthorn hedge, she waited •c for what was to come next. of money.
