He felt that the woman out under the marble cross knew how his money went, and so did the little cousin who was named after her, and who was at school. He had a letter from her in his pocket at that moment. So he drifted on. At length one evening he was at a reception in a strange city whither his business had taken him. The rooms were filled with light and beauty.

There is a certain dead line which no one can cross with impunity and none but a fool would attempt to. Powerful governments have found it advisable to keep silence regarding my antecedents.

Having done so much, I drove to the piers from which the Holland boats sailed; then, having discovered nothing, back to Charing Cross again. The train which would catch the night boat at Dover was just about going out, but Wildred and Karine were not visible. When the last moment had come and gone I betook myself to the hotel, where my telegrams were to await me.

"I regret," said I, "that I cannot allow this thing; you have come through our lines without my permission; this officer no doubt is a spy."

The four committeemen writhed under this thrust, and the minister went on: "On the other hand, I have no doubt in my mind that Mr. Haley is just as innocent as I am of the robbery." "Ye say that 'cause you air a clergyman," said Cross Moore bluntly. "It's your business to be allus seeing the good side of folks, whether they've got a good side, or not." The minister flushed.

Two hours later, raising his hat, he accosted her as she stood tapping the pavement of Battery Street with a daintily shod foot, waiting to cross. "Mrs. Belton, I think," he said. The lady eyed him coldly. "Well!" she said, "what do you want? Who are you?" "My name can scarcely matter to you," Kelson responded, "though my business may.
