"Yes," I answered, with a sigh of resignation.

Before departing I will do him so much justice he spoke to me very frankly of his past, and for my daughter's sake and his father's I trust that, as under Providence you were an instrument in averting its consequences, so you may sound him yet to some action which, whether he lives or falls, may redeem it. Mr. Rogers will sup with us to-night. If I mistake not, I hear his wheels on the road."

Garside, Heppell, Hunt and Bostock; while Captain James and 2nd Lieut. Rogers were wounded. Other ranks escaped very lightly with 9 killed and 39 wounded. April pursued its bitter way with snow and sleet.

If you will express my regrets to Miss Rogers " Naomi accompanied him to the door. She extended her hand "You're wrong, Mr. Carroll", she murmured. "Quite wrong!" "You are sure?" "I know!
