CHAPTER IL
A HALT IN IBB BOAIX
'Yon nro jui artist, " said the man on
tho front Boat of tlio sleigh, turning
about that he Blight talk moro easily
vith the young man who sat bi'sido tho
pretty girl on the roar scat. "You aro
in artist What do you think of tho
workmanship of this?"
Ho had taken from an inner pocket a
knoll leather case, which he now passed
d his companion. When tho young man
unl brought to light the contents, he
held in bis hand a medallion, set in a
jeweled frame a medallion npon the
convex surface of which was graven tho
attractive features of a handsome wom
an. The work was so delicate, the sitting
so rich, the effect of the whole so ex
quisite that the artist involuntiU'ily ut
tered a cry of pleasure.
"Why, thi.i is really admirable, La
mm'! Whoisit? Where did yon got it?"
The man on the front seat answered
in a voico as cold and unemotional as a
voice could well be:
"Inasmuch as this is tho woman
whom I am to many, I thought a toler
ably fair counterfeit of her face would
lie intt resting to my friends."
Tho pretty girl, who had been admir
ing the dainty valuable, became, as ho
spoke, somewhat pale,
"Oh, " (he said in a constrained, con
ventional way, "this Is Mrs, Porsythe?"
"lbs, Porsythe," assented tho man
on the front seat.
"She is very pretty," said tho girl in
tho samo tone.
As she spoke sho put tho medallion
quickly into the hand of tho young man
who sat beside her and averted her head.
"Another choice," oxclnimcd tho
man on tho front seat in a brisker tone,
glancing at a fork in the white road
which the fleet horses were rapidly ap
proaching. "Shall we take the inland
roiul direct or go by the roundabout sea
road? We shall see moro life by the first
way, but wo shall have better sleighing
and plenty of cold wind by tho second.
Which shall it to?"
"Which Shall it be, Ellen?" repeated
the young man to tho pretty girl.
"It nudces no difference to me."
"Then let us havo the sea road and
the sleighing. We are in no hurry, and
a little cold won't hurt us. "
"Jactaest alea, The sea road it r.hall
be."
The sleighing party was now within
eight miles of the city, tho locntion of
Which was marked by a vagne glow in
the wintry sky. Gradually the laughter
had ceased mid words had become infre
quent. The Ivlls on the horses jingled
merrily as ever, and tho rapid hoof beats
on the hard crnst camo to the ear through
tho biting air in the same inspiriting
pulsations, but for all that it was cold
riding after sundown along the sea road,
with the bitter breath from tho darken
ing otviui full in tho face.
Every moment tho fences and hedge
rows were becoming more indistinct,
and tho dreary while landscape between
the observers and the fading streak in
the horizon, where the sun had lately
been, was rapidly losing nil significance
or intelligibility as a prospect Truly
Dr. Eustace Lamar had forgotten tho
Hight of tiuio in his enjoyme nt of tho ex
hilarating sport, or he had sadly miscal
culated the distance, Not that there was
anything to be dreaded in tho ordinary
course of events of a ride in the palo
starlight or under tho mellow rays of the
moon. The road was a good one, and
rery soon it would bo well lighted. And
if the three pleasure seekers were a trifle
cold they could console themselves with
tho comforting reflect ion that there was
a cheerful fire waiting for them iu tho
agreeable sitting room of the uppermost
flat at 20 Bollavoine place. It was not
an elaborate affair, this abode of Julian
Maxey, the artist, but it was a pleasant,
interesting and certainly on a cold night
like this a very comfortable and desira
ble place in which to be.
Perhaps it was not owing altogether
to theoold that an unwonted silence had
fallen upon the oooupantl of the sleigh.
Pretty Ellen Maxey, the artist's sister,
who sat beside her brother on the rear
jeat, had dealt a deathblow to tho con
versation wiii'Ji sho ceased to tttke part
in it lint sho was not asleep, and her
face, protected from view by abundant
Wraps and the growing obscurity, had
gradually settled into an expression at
oneo wistful, pathetic and resigned.
Mxccy, whoso power of observation
was not wholly a matter of eyesight,
bad become annoyed and solicitous, but
ho took pains not to betray this fact
As for philosophic, middle nged,
handsome Dr. Lamar, tho prime causo
of the whole trouble, he was supremely
unconscious of any nnhappinoss on tho
part of his friends. IIo sat bolt upright
all by himself on the front seat, his
hands biu;y with the reins anil his at
tention apparently completely absorbed
i;i scanning the road as far as ho could
see in front of his swift team. The truth
is that Dr. Lamar had blunderingly and
unwittingly toacliod upon a topic ex
ceedingly disagreeable tohis friends be
hind him when ho mentioned his ap
proaching marriage with tho wealthy
Widow Forsytho.
If Dr. Lamar had only known how
fine and handsome ho appeared in his
pretty neighbor's dyes, it Would havo as
tonished him a great deal, and he would
h.ve toen henceforth very much moro
discreet in his remarks. If pretty Ellen
Maxey had imagined how well her keen
and penetrating brother had guessed her
secret, undoubtedly she would havo dis
simulated a great deal of glco and mer
riment in a desp:dring endeavor to have
thrown him off tho scent, for tho heart
beats proudly in tho breast of a girl like
her, arid this was snob a secret as sho
would wish might die with her.
They were all young'. Tho doctor was
tho eldest, and ho had barely reached
40. He was n brilliant young man who
had made something of a nr.mo in tho
medical world by a ; Went remarkable
publication, and whose practice was al
ready established on a firm basis.
Julian Mokey was 88, Ho had painted
several hundred very unsuccessful pic
tooa Their merit, howovo.r. was nlain-
ly recognized by his friends, by reason
of which accomplishment ho was called
an artist. Ho was enabled to keep up
this nonlucrativo pursuit and to satisfy
the Graving in his soul for counterfeiting
the beautiful by a comfortable annuity
which he had inherited from his grand
mother. Ellen Maxey was 24. Since tho death
of her parents she hud held the proud
though exacting position of her brother's
housekeeper, than which there was only
one other place in the world sho would
have been better satisfied to txrupy.
On went the spirited horses, while the
merry belli jingled and the steam spout
ed rhythmically in four evanescent
streams from their nostrils, and the foot
falls beat time on the hard crust. Tho
limitless black shadow settled down
slowly over the sea and the land. Thero
was a growing flush iu tho east which
might herald a coming moon, and a fad
ing glow in the west which betokened a
departed sun, but these were but poor
torches for a wayfarer groping in the
dark, and tho shu's overhead, obscured
by a palo mist, were puny candles
against the obscuration of tho deepening
gloom.
On went the mettled span toward the
faint light in tho heavens made by tho
distant city, held up to their steady gait
by a tight rein in the do-tor's guiding
hand and encouraged by an occasiou.il
stimulating cry. The ocean, stretching
out from tho base of tho cliff into the
darkness upon the right, grew more inky
from moment to moment, and the fading
white landscape upon the .left became
exceedingly sketchy and incomplete.
Still tho four Spouting olouds of steam
and still tho merry jingling of tolls
upon the frosty air.
All at oneo there is a break in the
rhythm of the hoof heats. From a steady,
onward, arrowliko (light the sleigh sud
denly moves laterally and almost stops
with terrific abruptness, narrowly es
capes overturning, trembles, jerks, snaps
in every joint and moves ahead again.
"Hi! whoa, there! What the deuce"
Dr. Lamar was en his feet) and his
strong arms were reining in the fright
ened horsi.. In another minnte he was
out in the snow, running beside them,
clinging to the bridle. A plunge, a snort,
a shiver, a great jingling of the tolls,
and the sleigh had come to a standstill.
"Whoa, Polly! Gently, Dolly!" said
tho doctor, persuasively stroking the
noses of tho trembling and greatly
frightened animals, while his two com
panions, who had jumped into a snow
b.mk, struggled out into the road and be
gan to put themselves to lights.
"Nov.', what thedi nee do you suppose
made those horses shy so?"
"There is something back thereon the
road, I am very positive, " said Maxey.
"And I I thought I saw somebody
jump over the fence and run across the
field," added his sister.
"What you saw on the road vero the
old settees on the edge of the cliff prob
ably," said Dr. Lamar. "You know tho
Somerset summer hotel is just back of
us here, and in the warm weather then;
is a row of seats just above tho bath
houses by tho roadside. I noticed what
I took to to the gangway leading down
to tho beach just before tho horses
jumped. "
"No, no. What I saw was in the mid
dlo of tho road," insisted the artist.
"But it's only a minute's work to find
out. " Ho turned back.
The doctor ejaculated: "Pshaw, what
does it matter? Wo'ro wasting time!"
"No; I am sure there's something
wrong!" exclaimed Miss Maxey.
"Wrong!" echoed the physician.
"What, an idea! You surprise me, Miss
Maxey. I didn't know you wero so eas
ily alarmed. "
"I was right," called the voice of
Maxey a little tremulously. "See this. "
They dimly saw him standing in the
road outlined against the sky, holding
up a shapeless, something to their view.
"What is it?"
"A woman's shawl.'
Miss Maxey cried out in alarm: "Wo
must go back at once. I know something
is wrong. I felt it before we reached it "
"Absurd!" exclaimed the doctor.
But Miss Maxey did not wait to heat
tho comment Sho had already rejoihed
her brother. The doctor saw them ap
parently kneeling in the snow, as though
examining tho surface. Then they sepa
rated. One went toward the fence which
divided tho road from tho adjoining
field, the other in the direction of the
low wall which disjoined it from the
narrow strip of ground between it and
the edge of the cliff.
"Dr. Lamarl Dr. Lamar!"
Thero was no mistaking the tenor of
this cry or its imperative nature. For
the first time the physician felt a vague
Bonsation of dread. He hastily made the
horses fast to tho fenco and went back
up the road. Ho saw that both figures
had come together now on the other side
of the wall near the edge of the bluff.
Ho camo up with quick steps.
"What's tho matter? What is it?"
"Listen!"
The wares washed lonesomely on the
rocks below. Tho night wind sighed in
its dismal rounds. The breath of the lis
teners came quickly and audibly. Thero
wcro no other sounds.
"I hear nothing," said tho phyi lotoA,
"but tho wash of tho sea, "
"Hist! What's that?"
A faint cry, rising on tho wind, mys
terious, indescribable I
"A child!" cried tho doctor, "or a
dog!"
"Whatever it be, it has fallen over
tho cliff," said Maxey.
His sister shuddered, but her voico
was very calm. - "You forget the foot
Steps and tho man I saw jump over tho
fence and run away. Tho snow is .trod
den and triuuplod all about us. Then)
him toen a struggle hero whero wo aro
standing. I am afraid for what you will
find down there. Stay witli mo, Julian,
and let tho doctor go down. "
Tho doctor went down, and in a littlo
whilo ho camo back again.
"Thero is something caught ou a
point of rock botwoen hero and tho
boaoh," he said hurriedly. "I could, by
looking up, just rt it between mo and
tho sky something which flutters in
the wind. Maxey, you had better take
Miss Ellen back to tho sleigh. We need
a rope and a lantern at once. I will run
to tho house wo just passed. I shall re
turn immediately. "
No doubt of that, if ho maintained
tho pace at which he set off.
Miss Maxey declined to go back to the
sleigh.
"I am not a coward!" sho said.
"Something is suffering. Until it can
be relieved, my duty is here. Hark, Ju
lian! I hear it again. "
Yes, again and again and again ere
tho good doctor ronppcarcd. It rose and
fell like the pulsations on tho beach be
low as tho wind carried it, sometimes
dying away into silence, sometimes
welling up into loudness a strange,
forlorn sound to to listening to in a
lonely place after dark. Thero was
something unfamiliar almost unearth
ly about it that made its hearers shud-

der. It might bo tho voice of agony, but
it made an impression like nothing 0110
could name. It did not seem to be a hu
man cry. It did not seem like the uttcr
nnoeof a dumb animal a sound that
was neither a moan of pain nor a cry of
supplication, but akin to both.
M Iss Maxey hid her face in her broth
er's breast and tried to shut it out
"Will the doctor" never come?"
A soft ray of light shot out from tho
midst of the flush in the east and sent a
glimmering pathway down across the
sea They would have light enough
anon. Tho moon was rising. Then camo
the sound of voices and footsteps hnrry
ing up the road, and here wero Dr. La
mar and two strangers with ropes and
lanterns.
Miss Maxey stepped back several paces
from tho littlo knot of men who now
gathered upon thcedgeof the bluff. She
raw them holding a consultation and
making calculations. Ono of them laid
down near the tror.chcrons, ice dad edge
of tho bluff flat on his face, and crawled
to the very verge, so that he might look
over. A lantern on thoend of a ropo was
then let down. After a few minutes it
was drawn up. The man arose. Another,
the smallest of the group, now submit
ted himself to be made securely fast to
tho end of the line and was lowered over
the edge. Two of the men at the ropo
stood on the other side of the wall, with
their feet braced against it. The third
Btood as near the edge of the cliff as ho
dared and eased the lino over tho rock:.
Ho listeni d for the voice of the man at
tho end of the ropo and repeated Ids in
structions to tho men on tho other side
of tin- wall.
"Lower! Lower! A little more.
Steady! Holdfast! Now, pull! Steady!
Pull! Once morel Now) again! stop!"
Breathless, excit ed, Miss Maxey start
ed forward. The man at tho verge was
already upon his breast) carefully reach
ing down to steady the delicate burden.
Again that strange, weird cry, louder
and near at hand, a flutter of garments
tossed by the wind, a final pull upon the
rope, a gasp ami a struggle, and n mo
tionless object was laid down in the
trampled snow. Everybody was bending
over it, Miss Maxey among the first. The
lanterns were held close down.
Softly she put back the straying hair
from the face that she might look npon
it, and she saw the features of a young
Woman not so old as she by several years
and dark and beautiful like; herself. The
face was very pole, and it was slightly
scratched and bruised, but thero was
no blood upon it. There was something
strained and unnatural in its appearance,
but through all the harshness of the ex
pression, all the ghostliness and pallor,
the delicate charm of a classic outline,
tho regularity of dainty features, assert
ed their presence still.
Miss Maxey saw all this with an add
ed pang at her sympathetic heart Some
how the very human thought that these
things made the pity of it the greater
obtruded itself own into Miss Maxey 's
sensible reflections. She sat gazing into
tho unconscious countenance alone, for
tho others had left tor. The attention of
all the men were; taken in tho task of
drawing up him who hail gene down to
tho rescue, and who had been left on the
point of rock beneath.
Tho long lashes rested on tho white
cheeks of the motionless form in Miss
Maxey's lap, but the girl seemed to to
in a stupor rather than a faint. Perhaps
she was dying with the cold. Sympathet
ic Miss Maxey pressed tho unconscious
head against the fur lining of her cloak
and sought to cluife the hands. Sho
found them enveloped in (hick gloves,
and then sho noticed that the unfortu
nate creature was well and wann'y clad.
Her clothing was of a modest and un
pretentious character, but at the same
time it did not Indicate poverty.
"What a terrible tUngl" exclaimed
Miss Maxey in a burst cfl sympathy,
As sho spoke the long lashes lifted.
Tlx; dark eyes looked for an instant full
into her own, and then there came into
the faco a vague expression, a some
thing, rather, that had not enough of in
telligence iu it to to called an expres
sion, as if fear bad laid tho mold of his
unsightly features against hers aud
stamped his imago there forever. Aud
from tho tremulous lips camo forth that
strange, low utterance that was neither
a moan nor a plea, not a human sound
exactly, nor suggestive wholly of a dumb
animal in dtatri ss.
"Poor child!" It was the voice of Dr.
Lamar, who was bending over Miss Max
ey's shoulder. "What a misfortune!
This is a very serious matter, a very so
rious matter indeed!"
to he continued.

A We.l-Known Physician,Who,
Among Other Things, Is

No one ever heard Dr. E. Orewernse

Is bis invariable docislon after examina

hia remarkable record without failures.
But it would bo rtrange indeed If the doc

Medico-Olururgical College in Philadel

ber of the Sledico-Chirurgical Association,
is a graduate of tbe University of Penn

A man with such a record could not fail
to be a successful physician under any
circumstances, but when backed by
cautious, conservatism in expression, or,
