The bullet had come all loo soon, and hid found him realising in hi life as a private soldier what Helen Conyngham had triad to Impratt upon him about faithtt liifss to duty. It was hard for him, he -aid, but no doubt it wus better for her. Only she would he glad to hear that he had died a soldier's death.

There was a locket of BtrUMM gold in OUt of the packet, and when he had opened t he held it before him a if he had been turned to marble bv the sight. The face was beautiful beyond anything he hail ever seen at laat, so it seemed to him.

As he gaatd he understood the wholt story of tho hapless love which had ended o tli i-tt ously ami yet not hope lowly, The letter of Helen Conynghiiin were a further revelation ofhorewett wotua i liiiess.
