He meant to stay two nights. but was knocked down by rheumatic fever, and for-six weeks disorganized Polder’s es- tablishment, stopped Polder’s work and nearly died in Polder’s bedroom. Polder behaves as though he had been placed under eternal obligation by Rickett and yearly sends the little Ricketts a box of presents and toys. It is the same everywhere.

He may or he may not have behaved like a blackguard to Mrs. Keith-Wessington. My notion is that the work of the Katabundi settle- ment ran him 03 his legs. and that he took to brooding and making much of an ordinary P. and O. flirtation.

But you shall judge for yourselves. l Three years ago it was my fortuneâ€"â€" my great misfortuneâ€"to sail from Gravesend to Bombay. on return from long leave. with one Agnes Keith- Wessington, wife of an ofiicer on the Bombay side. It does not in the least concern you to know what manner of woman she was. Be content with the knowledge that. ere the voyage had ended, both she and I were desperately and unreasoningly in love with one an- other. Heaven knows that I can make the admission now without one particle of vanity In matters of this sort there is always one who gives and another who accepts. From the first day of our ill omened attachment I was conscious that Agnes“ passion was a stronger. a more dominant andâ€"if I may use the expression â€"â€" a purer sentiment than mine. Whether she recognized the fact then. I do not know. Afterward it was bitterly plain to both of us. my sake and was prepared to give up all. From my own lips. in August. 5 1882. she learned that I was sick of her presence, tired of her company and ‘ weary of the sound of her voice. N ine- ty-nine women out of a hundred would a have wearied of me as I wearied of them; 75 of that number would have { promptly avenged themselves by active and obtrusive flirtation with other men. Mrs. Wessington was the hundredth. On her neither my openly expressed aversion nor the cutting brutalities with which I garnished our interviews had the least efiect. “Jack, darling, ” was her one eternal cuckoo cry, “I’m sure it’s allamis- I take, a hideous mistake, and we’ll be good friends again some day. Please forgive me, Jack, dear!” " " ‘._-__ £1. Arrived at Bombay in the spring of the year. we went our respective ways. to meet no more for the next three or four months. when my leave and her love took us both to Simla. There we spent the season together. and there my fire of straw burned itself out to a piti- ful end with the closing year I at- tempted no excuse. I make no apology Mrs. Wessington had given up much for .v-°-vv â€"v, I was the ofiender, and I knew it That knowledge transformed my pity into passive endurance, and, eventual- ly. into blind hateâ€"the same instinct. I suppose. which prompts a man to sav- agely stamp on the spider he has but half killed. And with this hate in my bosom the season of 1882 came to an end. 00-0 Last year we met againâ€"on the same terms as before. the same weary appeals and the same curt answers were her attempts at resuming the old relationship. As the season wore on we fell apartâ€"that is to say. she found it dificnlt to meet me, for I had other all“ “DVD. w__-_ , to. When I think it over quietly in my sickroom, the season of 1884 seems a confused nightmare wherein light and shade were fantastically intermingledâ€" my courtship of little Kitty Mannering; my hopes. doubts and fears; our long rides together; my trembling avowal of attachment; her reply, and now and again a vision of a white face flitting by in the rickshaw with the black and - - â€"- â€"--A.I.AA ‘M m W" ” SIVVW "usâ€"‘- me alone. which was but seldom. the irkaome monotony of her appeal.

Elwooked hack and saxvv that she had turned her rickshaw with the idea. I suppose. of over_taking me The scene and its surroundings were ( photographed on my memory The rain swept sky (we were at the end of the wet weather). the sodden. dingy pines. the muddy road and the black powder riven clifis formed a gloomy background against which the black and white liv- eries of the jhampanies. the yellow paneled rickshaw and Mrs. Wessing- ton’s down bowed golden head stood out clearly. She was holding her band- kerchief in her left hand and was lean- ing back exhausted against the rick- shaw cushions. I turned my horse up a bypath near the Sanjowlie reservoir and literally ran away Once I fancied I heard a faint call of “Jack!" This may have been imagination I never stopped to verify it. Ten minutes later I came across Kitty on horseback. and in the delight of a long ride with her forgot all about the interview w-- “WVâ€"v A week later Mrs. Wessington died. and the inexpressible burden of her ex- istence was removed from my life. I went to Plainsward perfectly happy. Before three months were over I had forgotten all about her. except that at times the discovery of some of her old letters reminded me unpleasantly of our bygone relationship. By January I had disinterred what was left of our corre- spondence from among my scattered belongings and had burned it. At the beginning of April of this rear. 1885. I was at Simlaâ€"semideserted Simiaâ€" once more and was deep in lover's talks and walks with Kitty. It was decided that we should be married at the end of June. You will understand, there- fore. that. loving Kitty as Idid. lam not saying too much when I pronounce myself to have been at that time the happiest man in India. ‘ 7 ‘ n “ ““I’r""' Fourteen delightful days passed al- l most before I noticed their flight. Then, aroused to the sense of what was proper among mortals circumstanced as we were. I pointed out to Kitty that an i engagement ring was the outward and visible sign of her dignity as an en- gaged girl and that she must forthwith come to Hamilton’s to be measured for one. ' Up to that moment, I give you my word. we had completely forgotten so trivial a matter. To Hamilton’s we accordingly went on the 15th of April. 1885. Remember thatâ€"whatever my doctor may ‘say to the contraryâ€"I was then in perfect health. enjoying a well balanced mind and an absolutely tran- quil spirit. Kitty and I entered Hamil- ton’s shop together. and there. regard- less of the order of affairs. I measured Kitty for the ring in the presence of the amused assistant The ring was a sapphire with two diamonds. We then rode out down the slope that leads to the Combermere bridge and Peliti'l shop. ""'r While my waler was cautiously feel- ing his way over the loose shale and Kitty was laughing and chattering at my side: while all Simlaâ€"that is to say. as much of it as had then come from the plainsâ€"was grouped round the read- ing room and Peliti’s veranda. I was aware that some one, apparently at a vast distance. was calling me by my Christian name. It struck me thatl had heard the voice before. but when and where I could not at once deter- mine. In the short space it took to cover the road between the path from Hamil- ton’s shop and the first plank of the Combermere bridge I had thought over ‘ half a dozen people who might have committed such a solecism and had eventually decided that it must have been some singing in my ears. Imme- diately opposite Peliti’s shop my eye was arrested by the sight of four jham- panies in “magpie” livery. pulling a yellow paneled. cheap. bazaar rick- shaw In a moment my mind flew back to the previous season and Mrs. Wes- sington with a sense of irritation and disgust. Was it not enough that the woman was dead and done with with- out her black and white servitors reap- pearing to spoil the day’s happiness! Whoever employed them now I thought I would call upon and ask as a personal favor to change her jhampanies’ livery. I would hire the men myself and if necessary buy their coats from 06 their backs It is impossible to say here what a flood of undesirable memories their presence evoked. 7 ‘ __, l‘Kitty.
