Cuthbert's wine club, seemed to be more amused at the solemn way I told the story, while Bagshaw said he would have given anything to have seen the Subby rushing down-stairs. They laughed loudly, and as soon as I could escape I went back to my rooms, leaving Jack Ward to talk to them.

Harding on account of his recent poverty, he did fully recognize the satisfaction of having those belonging to him in comfortable positions. It would be much more suitable that Mr. Harding should be Dean of Barchester than vicar of St. Cuthbert's and precentor to boot.

My KIRK SESSION He would need a brave and facile pen who would venture to portray the kirk session of St. Cuthbert's Church. For any kirk session is far from commonplace, let alone the session of such a church as mine. Kirk sessions are the bloom of Scottish character in particular and the crown and glory of mankind in general.

"There is no doubt about that, but we shall know more about it presently." As she hurried off to fetch the brandy the doctor's lips tightened. "It is fifty to one against him," he muttered, "still, I have seen men live with similar wounds." He took the glass from Mary's hands as she returned and poured a little between Cuthbert's lips. Then he listened to the heart's beating again.

I did not tell her about the bonfire which we had in the back quad after supper, because I am sure she would have thought that either I was lying or that most of the men in St. Cuthbert's were a set of lunatics. Two or three dons, who could appreciate festivities, danced round the bonfire quite happily, and evidently enjoyed themselves.

It was easy to obtain from Philip all such tools as would be needful for the task of excavation. Although the young man himself had small hopes of Cuthbert's success, he was interested in spite of himself in the proposed plan, and would have been more so had he known how much had been already discovered.

In the present instance, the unpretending and quiet seclusion of the monk of Saint Cuthbert's had hitherto saved him from the general wreck; but it would seem ruin had now at length reached him. Anxious to discover if he had at least escaped personal harm, Roland Graeme entered the half ruined cell.

Cherry turned hot and cold, flushed scarlet, and then grew pale as this speech proceeded, till at the last words the red came back in a flood, and hiding her face on Cuthbert's shoulder, she sobbed out: "Oh, how could I love anybody else? O Cuthbert, how happy thou hast made me! Art sure thou speakest sooth?" "Sooth! ay, that I do. Thou art the sweetest maid the sun e'er looked on.

Cuthbert's hallowed shrine, and they now sing the uncreated song. For they have joined that choir invisible whose voices, trained by God, blend in perfect unison, but not in time; for they reckon not by days and years where they have gone to dwell. It may be set down as certain that I would never have won them back to church had it not been that I abandoned argument and adopted friendship.

As soon as I got Nina into the big St. Cuthbert's quad she forgot that she had started by almost quarrelling with me.
