Nobody clso was to have nny share. In It ex

Wo had been married nearly ten years,
and whnt with the cares of homo and tho
training of numtroits olivebranchci, sho had
nove hud any chanco of n rest. Of course,
we had been to tho seaside frequently, nnd
nil thnt sort of thing ; but then , surrounded
by children and nurses, theso trips had only
been a continuation of the general London
responsibilities, plus tho worries and incon
vcuienco of lodgings or hotels. Moreover,
within the lost few years there had been
some trouble in her family, which had acted
very prejudically upon her senltive nnd
high-strung nature. So now we wero going
away alone going to leave all the children
at home in tho chargo of n grandmother-
were going abroad for six weeks together
wherever sho liked. Ilcr will was to be
paramount ; I was to be her slave to pay
the bills nnd look after the luggage. Her
affection and untiring devotion to her duties
deserved no less. She had thoroughly quail
fied herself for enjoying n holiday ; sho had
earned it. 'Italy,' she said,'wliere thero was

transported to distant places or, ratber,
resorted to the modern golden equivalent for
such proceedings and we found ourselves
certainly, as if by magic, at Lucerne. Thence
wo were to take it easy, and so jogged along
over the St. Gotbard Pass, and dropped in
to Italy at the Locarno end of the Lago
Maeiore.
Ry thU time sho was beginning to enjoy
herself thoroughly ; Mio had got over th
fatigue, and already looked much as sho did
tho day I married her. Ye, it was very de
lightful to sco her so well and happy.
'Why, it is liko n honeymoon over
again,' she said ; 'or, rather, it is as if there
had been no break, and thnt it was only the
continuation of those early days.'
We spent hours and hours upon tho lake,
beneath the awnings of the llat-bottomed
boata, those first inceptions of the gondola,
or wo wandered up to the pictnrefquo old
convent or banctuary of the Madonna del
Sasso, set like a jewel amid the blue hills be
hind the town.
And there, in the soit autumn evenings,
we sat and watched the glorious sunset, and
the boundless panorama of alp, plain and
lake, while the bell in the campanile hard
by called the peasantry to vespers, and tho
pealing of the deep-toned organ resouutied
through the choir.
We selected Locarno as a nailing pnice,
because it was at that time, and U so partly
still, out of tho rush of tho tourist. A prim
itive place, with simple, civil people, willing
to serve and oblige honestly, and without
having for the first question in their minds.
What shall we get by it?' Thus wo came
to know some of them living up there near
tho sanctuary, and to speak or nod when we
met from time to time.
Notably among these was a mother and
Child a sweet little chubby cherub of a boy
about 4. The Italian folk in the North
thero are not as a rule hamUome, but this
mother was an exception, and the child was
like her. Superior, too, in all respects, sho
looked better born, bred nlirt nurtured ; nay
there was even u look of culture and refine,
mpnt about her.
Immensely attracted by thU pair, my wile
particularly would lose no opportunity
of Kivitii; the little ono a pat and a ki"s, and
of exchanging a pleaiant word or two in tho
best Italian she could uitHter with the moth
er, who by degrees on her part began to
speak a little English, and to take us into
her confidence. She explained that she hail
matried an Engli-hman, n gentleman, she
declared, who had died suddenly, more thin
four years ago, and just before the little uno
was born. His family never knew of the
marriage : he had intended, she said, to pro
claim it, and faco the consequences of the
mesalliance, as it would bo called ; but his
sudden end prevented this, and to this day
sho believed her existence even unknown to
her husband's people. Rut she did not care
he had left her just enough to live upon, and
she had come to dwell at Locamo.where her
aged father lived, and whose last days sho
desired to soothe. She was contented with
the humble life she led there in yonder littlo
wooden chalet at least until the good God
should take him to his rest
Would wo enter the abode and speak to
her father? Ho was a very handsome old
man, a native of Tuscany, who had seen
better days. It mattered little that, or why
he had come so far North.
Her name was asked.
Ah, her maiden namo was ono that in
past times had struck terror to tho loes o
liberty j sho would rather not mention it
Her father even had considered it wise to
drop it, and had adopted her snr-name, her
married name, tho name of her husband
that is.
What, had he taken an English name?
No, not an English name ; her busbam:
had been naturalized as an Italian, had
changed his namo for reasons they did not
kignify,nnd he was known as Giorgio Viane'
ro ; she was Lucia.
Of course, wo went in and spoko to the
old farmer-like man, who, partially para
lyzed, always sat by tho window of his neat
littlo house. He received us with tho grace
of a prince, regretted that his Infirmities
prevented him from doing tho honors ot the
neighborhood, so beautiful as it was,
Naturalry wo looked in upon him more
than once ; but still it was his grandchild
that was the attraction, my wile declaring
that little l'aollo was tho veriest darling
she had ever seen, that he reminded her o
our youngest, and that she should like to
carry him off, probably because we had not
euough of our own,
Now she was a woman not given to mor
bid .fancies, thoroughly healthy, with plenty
ofccjnuion sense. Bo I wo a Uttlosurprised
at this extravagant adjiilTation, nnd, to bear
her, say that the child boro any resemblance
to ours. I could see none. Hut it was 'her
holjday,' and she was not to be crossed.
Well, ifl waa surprised by thiaJudga
how much more so I was when she suddeti'
lrt'lV,r.nln'OnT,niinrerf1Iior''wtsh'trfre.
ly onemornlng "announced her wish tore
turn home.
'Wo havo not been nway threo week9,' I
mildly protested,
'No,1 sho said j 'but I have got a strango
longing to see the children j I can't bear to
bo away from them any longer, I have
never been away from them two days, much
lets two weeks, before, and I can't bear it ; I
mint go back,'
And leave thus suddenly your pretty lit
tle protego on the bill up there ?' I ventured
to say.
les, she answered, 'that is the reason,
that Is what has made mo wish to go, I
mean the sight of that mother's lovo for her
child makes me envious ; I want to bo with
my own.'
What could I say? It was her hMulay,
to do as she pleased with ; if sho pleased to
cut it short, sho must.
'We will bo olf to-night, love,' I said
but inwardly I was grieved, saddened, not
only by the disappointment, but because,
teeing that wo had excellent accounts from
home, this strange freak had something mor
bid in it, iinllko her. Yet there was no ap
peal, and I began making arrangements for
our departure.
'You will go up and say good-bye to tho
little chap, your friend?' I nsked.
'Certainly,' ahe answered ; 'you will come
with mo, won't you ?'
'We will go nt once,' I said. I was the
slave, I had nothing to do but' to obey.
It was a wild nnd gusty day for August,
nnd the landscape looked less inviting than
usual, as wo ascended tho zigzag path lead
ing to the sanctuary a little above which on
the hill-side lay tho homo of our new friends-
At one of tho angles near the top of this
zigzag tho path passed perilously close to a
steep precipice, which for somo distance
formed one bank of a mountain stream as it
came tearing down over a rocky bed. This
spot was a great height from the level of the
lake, and the precipice itself just thero was
some forty feet above the river. A few
rough bushes made a feeble parapet on the
broken ground at tho actual edge, but be
yond these there was nothing but a sheer
down wall of rock. As we reached this corn
er we saw fluttering in the wind what looked
at first like a handkerchief hanging from ono
of the bushes, but which proved at our com
ing closer to be the garment of a child who
was standing at the very vergo of the
chasm.
'How dangerous I' exclaimed my wife.
'Who could have left a child in such a
place?'
It was a solitary walk this, especially at
midday, and wo had not met a creature since
wo cleared the outskirts of the town, except
an old monk toddling down upon somo mun
dane errand,
'Ah!' sho cried, as we got still nearor,
why it is yes, I declare why, it is dear
little l'aolo himself. Good gracious! he has
strayed away down' here alone to look for
blackberries, no doubt ;' and as sho spoke
she rushed forward, and seizing tho child by
the skirt drew it back from the perilous edge
over which it was craning. Ab I came up
we both saw that tho littlo creaturo was cry-
ng bitterly, nnd ho immediately (began
pointing down toward the stream, and lisp
ing out, 'Mia madro, mia madrel'
I bent over nnd looked dowu in the di
rection the little one was pointing, and to
my dismay among tho rocks at the vergo of
the river beheld lying prostrate thirty feet
below, tho motionless form of tho mother,
Then ensued a scene which I will not
dwell upon. I flew up tho sanctuary for as
sistance. My wife, clasping tho little one in
her arms, hastened down to the place where
it was just possible by a very rough scramble
to get round to the bed of the river. Here
I and those whom I had brought with me.
presently joined her, and we made our way
to the luckless woman. She was not dead,
but quite insensible, and after infinite troub
le and caro we managed to carry her up to
her home, my wife with Paolo in her arms
preceding us, and breaking the sad news to
the father.

in that primitive place came from the sanct
uary, and soon an old monk to whom tho
natives all seemed to defer, was in atten
dance, and after a careful examination of
the patient pronounced that by a great mer
cy no bones wero broken, but that the poor
woman was suffering from concussion of the
brain, and that some weeks might elapse be
fore she would be about again.
Do you hold to your determination of re
turning home?' said to my wife.when the cx
citement and tho sorrow which this catastro
phe had caused were a little abated ; for
own I was selfish enough to hope that out o
this evil good might come in the Bhape o
making her prolong her holiday. Tho hopi
was realized.
No,' she answered j 'perhaps I can be o:
some use here : I will not go back yet. This
little one will want a mother's care now
will be that mother for I lovo him more than
ever, and I wish more than ever that ho be
longed to me.'
I need hardly say that under other cir
cumstances I should havo entirely objected
to her assuming such maternal respouslbili
ties : I should have pointed out that
was no duty of hers, a well born lady, in
this fashion to lnook after the oilspring of an
unknown peasant woman, and that there
wero plenty of neighbors willing and ready
to undertake the task, and who were really
the proper people, etc.
Hut what could I do? Was it not 'her
holiday ?' and had I not promised a hundred
times to grant every wiah.wliim and caprice?
because I thought sho had none, and
never expected to be put to this kind of test
for had I not married a sensible woman ?
was puzzled, but I could only conform, say
ing to myself : 'They aro strange creatures
women j one never knows them no, not af
ter ten years of the closest scrutiny,'
So we stayod on j she devoting the great
er part of her time to attendance upon the
sick woman (who still lay unconscious) and
her child, whoso lisping, imperfect words
told us too plainly that it was whiU reach'
ing over tho edge of tho precipice to (father
blackberries for him that his mother had
lost her footing and fallen headlong down
My wife would spend hours by tho bedside,
I ventured to remonstrate, aud got n severe
snubbing for my pains.
One evening, about a week after the
catastrophe, while I was waltiug for her at
spot hard by the sanctuary where we often
sat, she came up to mo in the most excited
frame of mind, I was leally alarmed
had never seen her equable temperament so
disturbed,
'Oh, Walter,' she exclaimed, 'I have just
come from the poor woman, and I have
had such a shock She has regained con
sclouiness,but not her senees.whlch the good
fralc, who watches her always, tolls mo fre
quently happens In such cases.'
Hut what of tlia? Why should it oxclte
you so ?' I asked, quito mytllfied at my
wife's words,
'Ah, I don't know j I cannot tell you : my
hopes, my beliefs, have hardly taken form
yet ; only come quickly with me up to the
house. 0, Walter, it is all so wonderful I
Come, let us get on faster ; I want so to get
back that you nnd I both may listen to Lucia
Vianero's broken words.provo their meaning
and so clear upn doubt that'
'What do you mean ?' I cried. 'What can
sho have said to so strangely move you ?'
And I inwardly thought, '0, that I had nov
er consented to her holiday I'
'I will tell you, if you will only hurry on
as fost as you can. Signs of animation set
in about on hour ago, and the first words
wero: 'l'aolo, I'aolluo.' I held the boy up
to her, but she took no heed of him, and
went on murmuring another name over and
over so often that I felt quite mysteriously
affected. It was' Hut here, reaching the
door of tho chalet, my wife hurried me to
tho bedside.
The old monk held up a warning finger as
we entered : Wo hardly dared to draw a
breath as we listened to Lucia's low, uncon
scious tones.
'Giorgio, Giorgio mio,' she was saying, in
Italian, liko one vho talks in a dream ;
'never tell of our marriage; they will not
love me; they will neglect me. Hide it,
aud the little one too; do not let them see
him ; they would break his heart with cold
ness; they would not even own him I Yes,
perhaps your sister might, for she loved you,
Giorgio mio; you have told me so. Sho
felt for you and wept for you, nnd knew why
you went away and came to live in the midst
of sunny skies aud beautiful pictures. Ah,
well, you can tell her if you like; she would
love I'aolino for your sake. Look at him
Giorgio. Kiss him I'
Hero she seemed once more to lapse into
unconsciousness, and tho good frate said
'Ah, poor Lucia, her mind wanders back
to her marriage, and mingling past and pres
ent, sho speaks of what never was ; the fath
er never saw tho child.'
'Did you know her husband, then ?' in
quired my wife in Italian.
Tho frato shook his head. 'Only the cir
cumstances of the marriage.'
Tell mo what woro they ?' she exclaimed
clasping her hands as in agony of excite
ment.
'Simple, very simple,' said tho holy man,
quito unmoved, aud shrugging his ample
shoulders ; 'a young Englishman, an artist,
living in Florence, and who had made Italy
the land of his adoption, and who took an
Italian name, fell in lovo with Lucia, who
as his model, and married her ; not an un
usual occurrence among your countrymen, I
believe,' he added, turning to me.
I was bewildered ; did not know in tho
least what to mako of all this, and I have
no doubt I looked as stupidly helpless as I
felt.
'And then ?' eagerly inquired my wife,
seizing thefrate's arm, and looking into his
face, after casting a glance of unutterable!
scorn upon mo.
He mado a littlo home for her.and every
thing promised well for their happiness,
when ho was taken suddenly ill, broke a
blood vessel, and died in Lucia's arms.'
'Do you know what his English namo
was?' here again hurriedly inquired my
wife.
'What can you possibly want to know
that for?' I interposed in English, quite
in tho dark as to what sho was driving
at.
'0, Walter, Walter 1 how stupid you are 1'
she answered, throwing more and more con
tempt into her words and manner ; 'does
nothing suggest itself to you ? Can't you
guess what I am thinking of? Tell me,' she
said, again repeating her question In Italian,
and turning to the monk, 'tell me the Eng
lish name of Lucia's husband ; do you know
what it was?'
Si, Sicnora, si ; but I cannot reveal it ;
it was made known to me under the seal of
confession.'
Seeing that she was again about to urga
the Irate to grant her request, I entreated
her to be silent, and to look after little Pao
lo, who was climbing up to his mother and
trying to make her play with him.
Ah 1' she then exclaimed, 'dear little fel
low ; do look at him, Walter, and then
think of his lather's assumed Italian name
Vianero.think what its English equivalent
means.'
More bewildered than ever, I obeyed her
command, and began to think, while she,
oncomore in Italian earnestly entreated tho
frate to tell her the name.
'For mercy sake, let me know,' she said.
I am not asking out of idlo curiosity, but
only that lovo and service may be rendered
to the memory of the dead. I feel that I am
on the point of a discovery; tell me, am I
not right in believing that his name was
George Illackaway?'
Tho monk started at these words, and so
did I ; for this was the name of my wife s
only brother, whoso death was the piece of
family sorrow referred to at the starting.
A hit of a scapegrace, with a strong turn
for art, and never understood by his father,
bo bad gone to Rome years ago had expa
triated himself, and, with the little compe
tence he possessed, had entirely withdrawn
himself from all his early associations. His
sister alone at long Intervals had tidings of
him. and at length wo heard, but not till
long alter tho event, that he had died in
Florence suddenly.
Thero was a rumor that he had married
under au assumed name, had been 'natural!
zed as an Italian, but nothing very definite
came to light.
And now, what was happening? Why,
that we had come upon a trace of his latter
days,aud had found In this ohncure corner of
tho world the pretty Italian woman he had
matried.
'Yes,' exclaimed my wife, turning with
an air of triumph to me ; 'and perhaps,
Walter, you can now understand what It is
that drew mo from the first toward this
woman and child, and why the littlo crea
ture Inspired me with such deep affection.
It was the mysterious nnd subtle Instinct of
kinship, of blood relationship, for this baby
boy Is my brother's child ;' and with theso
words she seized the little fellow, clasped
him to her bosom and wept copiously.
The matter was clear to u now at last ;
but who on earth could have expected such
a denouement, or that she should havo been
led to the ouly spot where the could havo
gained any tidings of her brother t
And yet so it was, and this discovery was j RIon Nicholas, July 21, 1803, drafted, mus-

However, I am bound to say I bellevo she
might not have pressed this point, had it
not been for tho fatal effect of tho accident,
which, after all, terminated in Lucia's
death, and consequently for tho child having
thus, as it were, fallen to our chargo as his
natural guardians. It was all very sad and
miserable, the end of our time at Locarno
involving numerous complications with tho
local law. We wero detained there till the
