Aubrey glanced at Gertrude, and saw her blue eyes flash. Ae knew it would burt her to ask her to go. Besides, he dared not. He was afraid of himâ€" self should he stand alone with the woman he believed so hard and treachâ€" erous. He knew that he would give up everything, sacrifice everything, at her Lady Gertrude stood cold and silent between them. She saw the color come and go on his face; and she saw what was in Erna‘s soul by looking in her eyes. _"What I have to say should be told to you privately," said Erna, in a low He knew that if there were opportunâ€" ity she could do it.

"I had something of the utmost imâ€" portance to say to you, Lord Aubrey," said Erna; "otherwise I should not have intruded at this time." He felt himself quivering at the sound of her mellifiuous voice. And then he looked at ner and saw how beautiful she was, he fels the old fascination creeping over him. He wondered if it was posâ€" wible that she had come to win him from his allegiance again. For a moment it seemed as if he could not speak. Why had Erna come there to see him? lHe was troubled and unâ€" nerved for the moment. He stared from one face to the other, and murmured ; "Erna here?"

I have come here in the humblest spirit; and, as Heaven is my judge, my errand is one involving your happiness." "Or misery," interjected Gertrude. "Here comes the earl!" almost gasped Erna. as the door opened, and the earl hurriedly entered. "A duty!" she sneered.

Do not make it harder by your unreasonable jealousy. Can you not unâ€" derstand that Lord Aubrey would turn from me, even if I would sue him to come ?" "Heaven forgive you, Lady Gertrude!" answered Erna, in a pained tone. "What "I came here," she said, depreciatingly, "because I had a duty to perform whick no one else could do for me." "I believe that," sneered Gertrude. "But why not tell me your errand* I shall soon be his wife, you know. Have you a love token to return? Is there a last word to be said ?" Erna shrank back. She was not preâ€" pared for such a meeting, and would have done anything to avoid it. "And can you not let him get cold before you go in search of another?" cried Gertruae, fiercely. Etna knew that she had in some way been recognised. She threw back her veil and disclosed her features to the angry bride. "I am she who was Erna March I am now the widowed Marchiontss of Melrose," Erna said, in a gentle tone. "May I ask your name and errand heret" she asked, threateningl;. "I came to see Lord Aubrey." "I am to be his wife in a few hours. It is proper that I should see and know any friend so close that she comes here unbidden on such a day." Certrude stood silent a moment, an exâ€" pression of the bitterest scorn on her face. The fury which bhad been pent up so long had burst into inextinguishable flumes. She was checked by no impulse of reason or prudence. Thé woman who had humiliated her was there, seeking the man to whom she was to be wedded but a few hours hence.

Her blue eyes flashed from one to the other, and her voice rose shrill and high. Erna pitied her from the bottom of Ler heart, and would have stopped her if she could. 7 "Lady Gertrude," said Lord Aubrey, ia a hard tone, "after what you have said, it would be folly for me to seek to spare you anyâ€"â€"" "I do not ask your pity nor his.

"You say you have seen Lucie de Senact You know who she is ?" The earl closed his lips angrily and impatiently. If Erna‘s story were true, it were better for her own sake that Gertrude were not present; butâ€"if she would remain, so be it. It seemed to her that alréaidy Erna‘s influence was at work.
