A moment later as he came nronnd to the front of the house the light of a lamp illnmined one of the upstairs bedroom windows, the room in which, as he knew, Ollie and Eunice slept. But a moment before he bed passed the kitchen in which he bed seen Ollie and her parents sitting about the able. Who, then, wasin thetnpslniumom? No member of the Morningstu house- hold would commlt the extrengence of leaving a lamp burning in en empty As he came to this conclusion a turn in his walk brought him in sight again of the haunted back building, and he saw that the lighted window had he- thetic tone with which the ulwin spoke of the girl. “It would take a Sherlock Holmes to ferret out this mystery,” he said to with her capacity for assimilstlnz Izaak Walton’s little classic. He re- called that Mrs. Morningstar had told him of the child’s met at being taken from schooL “She cried wonderful.” the woman -had said in the unsympa- chologist he could not reconcile the fact of the girl’s hnving left school at the age of twelve, according to her footer mother's own acknowledgment. His impressions of Eunice were in dire confusion and refused to lend themselves to readjustment. That a girl capable of even accidentally read- ing “The Compleat Angler” and dis- cussing it as she had done should “take up” with Abe Morningstar was singular. to say the least. The flower- like beauty of her face. the peculiarly thrilling quality of her voice. her grace and. in some respects. exquisiteness made it seem incongruous that she should. as Mr. Morningstar had ex- pressed it. be “wonderful took with our Abe.” And then the intelligence she had_revealed this eveningâ€"what was it she had said about “The Com- pleat Angler?”â€"it was not “for its didactic instructions about fishing" that she cared for it. but “for the anecdotes scattered through it. the quotations and songs and poems.” Good Lord! Should he presentlydiso cover that Abe was familiar with Chaucer and Spenser and that Ollie was a student of Shakespeare and Milton? He couldn’t have been more astonished if he had found Mrs. Morn- ingstar quoting Henry James or come across Mr. Morningstar intelligently reading George Meredith. As a psy- the township. and strangers to the neighborhood were never left long in ignorance of it. Kinross felt sure. from what he had seen of the family. that none of them could possibly be in- duced to go near that haunted quarter of the house after dark and he was naturally puzzled, therefore, to account for the light he saw in the window just now. He thought he would ask Mrs. Morningstar to let him sleep in the haunted room some night and see whether he could not meet and lay the spirit that troubled it. it did not occur to him to associate the light with the absence of Eunice. Ile accepted. as unquestioningiy as did Hen Muckle- henny. Mr. Morningstar's story of her clandestine drive with Abe. Indeed. the family's agitation over the fact was keeping them up long after their usual early bedtime. as he knew from the lamp light in the kitchen to which the circuit of his stroll periodically brought him. Kinross mused on the situation as for an hour longer he wandered up and down the garden in the gathering night. His promenade brought him every now and then to a corner of the house from which he could see in an unoccupied and reputedly “haunt- ed” part of the building a faint flicker- ing light in one of the window. He had been told of the tradition con. ceming the ghost who visited this wing of the old house. The Morning- stars were very proud of the distinc- tion of living with the only ghost of "She knowed better’n to sit in with him near here. She likely walked over the schoolhouse and behind Zoar's ch irch up and then got in his buggy above the town out. 30’s as we wouldn’t see her." Very low in his mind and looking ubjectly disappointed and discouraged, Henny on receiving this information rose to go home. “1 seen Abe's buggy ahead of me when i was drivin' over here," Hen answered, his tone expressing timid doubt of the truth of Mr. Morning- star's assertion.‘ “and I didn't take notice to no lady settin’ alongside of him. He rode clean down the pike ahead of me. Our buggies was so close apart 1 could see right into his’n. And till I got here a’ready Eunice she was here." CHAPTER X1.

MARTIN. l he felt In the philosophy 1.266 schools In unpaved. witnxbe. mum To reach his bedroom he had to pass the opening to the long. narrow hall which led into the redoubtable back building, and it was just as he came to this passage that his step was ar- rested by something which gave him a momentary thrill of excitement. The lamp he carried shed a light down the passage, and his eye was caught by a white figure moving swiftly and noise- lessly at the farthest end of it. Al- most instsntly the figure disappeared. Whether it had run around a turn in 'the hall or dissolved into ether he could not be sure. Was it a wraith or what? Should he pursue it? No; its garb was too suggestive of a woman’s nightgown to make pursuit on his part advisable. He would get him. Morningstar’s permission to sleep down there some night, and then, it ghost it were, he would surely make its se- quaintance. With this conclusion and feeling ac- succession of episodes he went to bed. “It’s none of my business. 0! course Abe would Justiy resent my solicitnde for the girl.” 80, with the reflection thnt he was living in the midst of fast thickening mysteries, he shook out his pipe and went indoors for the night. “'hat had the fellow done with Eu- nice? Kinross was surprised into a quick feeling of alarm for the girl’s safety. He was on the point of step- ping after Abe into the barn to in- quire after her when he bethought him that he would do better to keep out of the “mixup.” . In the quiet of the country evening the beat of the horse’s hoofs could be heard from a" distance, and he had time to decide that it was no doubt the buggy containing the truant lov- ers that was coming up the road and to wonder how their return would be met by the angry heads of the house when the vehicle drove in at the barn, and he saw as he strolled in that di- rection that Abe was alone. He took his pipe from his mouth and clasped his hands behind him as he bent back his head to the stars while he dwelt upon the picture of a revised Georgiana which his fancy called up. He was just wondering whether the deception he was playing upon her in his disguise might not be made in some way to work such a re- vision in her when his attention was arrested by the sound of approaching carriage wheels. in the least shaken out of her orbit by | the shock of Eunice’s correcting her quotation from Izaak Walton and de- : dining to be' ‘a recipient of charity'â€" ' that was the damsel’s phraseology, if I remember. Probably not. She could hardly forget herself long enough to entertain more than a mere passing wonder about another woman. I “Her wishing to give that dress to ‘ Euniceâ€"it was not because of any. sympathy with Eunice; it was merely i an exploiting of herself, an insistence upon her theories, which she feels set, her above and apart from the common herd. If something could happen to her to knock out of her her own fool 3’ Idea of herself and make her just a 1 simple. natural girl, why, with such beauty and distinction as she has, she - might be a very charming woman.” all the stress that will be brought to bear upon her. she will with equal calmness and philosophy persist in her devotion to Abe. i should think she’d find it hard to hold out against the cold blooded obstinacy of that brutal old Morningstarâ€"hurder than against the woman’s warm temper. i fancy the Dutchman could be cruel under some circumstances. Now. I’m in- clined to think Eunice would fare bet- ter if she favored that sheep that came to court her this eveningâ€"Hen Muckle- henny. He looks inoa'ensive and soft hearted, while Abe Morningstar is a genuine son of his fatherâ€"small soni- ed. selfish and brutal. But she doesn't know that it is she Hen came to see. and the Morningstars will take care that she doesn’t find it out. I might do her a good turn by telling her on the quiet." His meditation turned at last from sheer weariness into another channel, and he fell to thinking of the awkward situation he would have to confront when. on his return to town, he should be obliged to meet Miss Ellery and Miss Parks in his true character. How he was going to carry it oil! was a question which not infrequently occu- pied his leisure moments. “But she never seems to mind the old mdy's upbraidlngs; she takes them with an apparently philosonhlcal calm.” he thought. “I wonder whether. against Kinmu felt an hupulse of pity for Eunice u be thuuuht 01' the retflbu- non she would have to fan- on her ro- 'nm or on the morrow. homo he found that the trio In the kitchen had at last taken their lamp. and gone upstairs. wan-tug the kitchen door nhlatched for him and for the Want lovers.
