Lawrence Grant's character in certain circumstances would seem to have as startling and inexplicable contradictions as Clementina Harcourt's, and three days later he halted his horse at the entrance of Los Gatos Rancho.
As my affairs take me back to Los Gatos within half an hour, I am sorry I cannot dispense my hospitality in person, but you will dine and sleep here to-night. Good-by. As you go out will you please send up Mr. Jackson to me." He nodded briefly, seemed to plunge instantly into his papers again, and John Milton was glad to withdraw. The shock he had felt at Mrs.
