He's the son of James Wing, the financier." "I went to school at Sutcliffe with his sister," said Honora. It seemed to Honora that Mrs. Tyler's manner underwent a change. "My dear," she exclaimed, "did you go to Sutcliffe? What a wonderful school it is! I fully intend to send my daughter Louise there." An almost irresistible desire came over Honora to run away.
At eight bells in the morning watch we brought the ship to the wind on the larboard tack, with her head about east-north-east, and I then divided my scanty crew into two watches, with Joe Maxwell, the carpenter, as my chief mate, and a very smart A.B., named Tom Sutcliffe, as second.
"How did you guess it?" she exclaimed in surprise. "Yes to boarding-school. To Sutcliffe, on the Hudson, with Edith and Mary. Aren't you glad? You look as though you had seen a ghost." "Do I?" said Peter. "Don't stand there in the rain," commanded Honora; "come into the parlour, and I'll tell you all about it." He came in. She took the umbrella from him, and put it in the rack.
Sutcliffe. Mrs. Sutcliffe didn't count; she wouldn't do anything at Agaye, she would just trail about in the background, kind and smiling, in a shawl. She might almost as well not be there. The happiness was too great. She could not possibly have given it up. She went on stitching. Mamma went on stitching. Catty brought the lamp in. Then Roddy's telegram came. From Queenstown.

The introduction took place just as the passengers or at least those of them who were not too ill were about to sit down to tiffin, and Dick was assigned a place at the long table halfway between the head and the foot, where Captain Roberts and Mr Sutcliffe respectively presided; but the young man declined to sit down until he had visited and relieved his new patients, consisting of five ladies and three men.
The chief leader in this new movement was Charles E. Sutcliffe. He had pleaded the cause of Home Missions for years; and now he was made the general secretary of the new Home Mission society. In one way, however, the conduct of the Brethren was surprising.

"Anyhow," he said, "you oughtn't to go about all over the place with old Sutcliffe."

Roddy walked slowly, trying not to meet him at the cattle-gate. The tall man walked faster, and they met. Roddy opened the gate. The tall man thanked him, said "Good day," looked at her as he passed through, then stopped. "My sister Mr. Sutcliffe." Mr.
