The stage is attacked and Constance is wounded. Haida leaves her for dead and goes to impersonate her in England. Caryl Wilton, who knew Maida as a famous actress. meets her at some amateur theatricals in her new home and visits the portrait. Gallery at Hartleigh Hall. He is passionately iond of her and to be often in her presence asks leave to paint her portrait. Guy. a nephew of Sir Richard. to avoid seeing Wil- iton’s admiration for the girl he thinks he loves, rides oil and calls on his old nurse. He. meets Mildred Thorpe. Lady Gladys a rival for Guy's affections takes steps to un- cover Maicla's past. Hartlelgh Hall was ï¬lled with guests. Dinner was over, and there had been music, and many of the guests had seated themselves at the card tables. Maida had wandered out on the verandah where she thuught to be alone, but she had not been there many seconds when she heard a step behind her. and, looking around, saw Caryl Wilton. (lIUUIIU, an" V$lel vv-uvv..- I “Parhon me for disturbing you," he said, "but I have a. word to say to you which I had hoped you wouldi forgive. To make it clear to you,‘ let we suppose a case. Let us take the case of a woman who is in danger. She has an acquaintanceâ€"say Lady (lladys for exampleâ€"who is jealous of her, an'l wishes her harm. Then th-rc comes at man from America. who tries to appear very simple, but who has a secret understanding with Lady Gladys. I don’t know what harm the man can do, but I am con- vinced he seeks to do harm. What I would like to say to my dear friend is, that if she has any papers or oth- ;er valuables which could possibly be- tray her, she had better destroy them that is all." He haul not looked directly at. Maida as he said this, or he would have seen that she was growing asliy pale. Perhaps he knew the probable efTect of his words. and preferred not to look at. her until he had finished. L“vlibw Em I help you in the mat.- ter?" she asked in a low tong. “Muenâ€" he 'tVur‘nod and looked her full in the face. ““1! nothing suggests itself to you, hon there is nothing you can say to help mo," he gently said. -uv-lr -v- â€No." she answered. almost coldly, "nothing suggests itself to me. I do not. undersumd you. I hope you will excuse me if 1 leave you. ' I wish to walk." Maida stopped swiftly across the tori-ace. holding her shawl closely to her. the moonlight. faiiing on her face. which showed no trace of nor- voumws or fearâ€"nothing: but a sort of x'cxzition at having been spoken to about u. matter which she had been trying to forget.

What could there be in any secret be- tween Lady Gladys and the American -â€"-any secret which could hurt her. Even (‘uryl Wilton could not be sure that she was not the rightful (laugh- ter of Sir Richard, for, after all. she was the only daughter he had living, and she would not let him think he could move her at will. "How exquisite." she murmured, looking up at the sky. “I shall sure- ly have time to take a look at the church. How can they ï¬nd any plea- sure in sitting in those warm rooms. while all this calls to them in vain?" (‘ommuninq thus, she opened the wicket gate, and stood among the tombs, gleaming white in the moon- light. And, as she looked around, a smile played about. her lips. Dtllll run“ \“ ‘vvv-‘- “Certainly I am not. nervous,’ ’she said. “Are there many women with a. taste like mine who would stand here without a shudder? How quiet it all is. I wonder how the church looks inside?" She was passing the porch to look in at one of the windows, when she saw. to her astonishment, that the door was half open. With a smile at the thought, of the extent to which Sir Richard's anger and amazement would have gone had he but known it, she pushed the door open and en- torcd. She stood in the nave. admiring the weird beauty of the moonlit pillars and carving, and then walked slowly around the aisles. ‘A vivid â€Ovvv ‘7“- __ v--- ray of moonlight. fell upon a large white marble tablet, and attracted her attention to it. The tablet was no curiosity to her, but she always looked at it whenever she entered the church. She knew the lines by heart but she read them again: Sacred to the Memory of AGATHA, “ire of Sir Richard Hartleigh, Bart... Born June 6.18-â€". Died December 11, 18â€". “To Lady Hartlcigh†she murmur- ed. “Yes, that is the world's way.

With a gesture almost of appeal. she let her arms {all to her sides, and with bent. head moved from before the tablet. stretched out her arms, with a pas- sionate sob; “have I not already kept my oath? What more can you demand? What more? It is enough? Mother. be satisï¬ed!" As she passed into the deep shad- ow cast by one of the pillars, a sud- den thrill ran through herâ€"one of those strange sensations by which we are convinced that, hitherto unsus- pected by us, we feel that some other human being is near us. She heard nothing, saw thing, yet she felt that something st 'angc and mysterious was near her . For the ï¬rst moment since leaving {the tennce, fear seized her. An intangi- ble horror reached out a hand from the unknown and touched her. ‘ White as degtwh not trembling. but with every limb as rigid as the stone ï¬gures on tre tombs, she leaned against the pillar and stared before her. A minuteâ€"it might hzï¬â€˜e been an ageâ€"passed and she was about to make a'great. effort to recover her presence of mind, when, with a. hor- ror no tongue can describe, she saw 5 white ï¬gï¬re gliding from the chan- col. With noiseless, regular movements it seemed to float down the aisle, now lost in the shadows, now white and distinct in the moonlight. Cold heads of sweat stood on Muida's face. With startling eyes. she watched, powerless to move a limb or utter a. cry; one thought alone possessing her, in the shape of a Vague prayer that the Something might not approach her or turn its face. "Slowly the white ï¬gure reached the nme, and was gliding toward the (1001:. when all at once, when it came opposite the tablet to the memory of LadV II: irtleigh, it threw up its aims and tmning; full tOWurd Maida, wailcd mmunfully: "Mother! mother!" With an awful horror Maids. saw that the face wzts that which she had last seen lying cold and rigid in a tar-away land. “For one moment she stared in speechless horror. and then started forward with a wild cry. '1 he face turned (1 om the tablet with an expression of horror, not less than Mnida’ s own, stared an in- stunt. and then, with a wail, cried: â€You? Is it you. then?†The cry mug in Maida's ears like a. call from the (lead, and, with a piercing scream, she sank’ senseless 011 the cold stones. It seemed to Maida that an age had passed when she recovered conscious- ness. and slowly, fearfully, raised her head, and looked at the spot where she had seen the accusing face. She gave a great gasp of relief when she realized that she was alone. She; looked about her with half-fearful: scrutiny, and seeing nothing ghostly or human, went to the gate. As she â€mt. her hand upon it she heard some- -thing move, and looking up saw a iligure advancing swiftly toward her. It Was no vision, however. but Caryl Wilton. He peered at her uncertalnly for a moment. and then, with a ges- ture o! relief, advanced to her side. “Is it. you?" she said forcing a smile. “Why are you hereâ€"why do you store so? Do I look like aâ€" ghost?†‘c “Forgive me,’ he said, in a low voice; “I could not. remain in the house while you were out here alone." “How long have you been here?" she asked. “Not more than a few minutes." “Are they still singing and card- playing?" “Most of them are gone." he re-‘ plied; “and I am supposed to have gone. Sir Richard thinks you are in your rooms. “And Guy?" she asked. “Guy!" he said, with a frown. “ luy I passed on the terrace.
