. CHAPTER' IL
When Mrs. Frank Armour arrived at
Montreal, she Btill wore her Indian cos
tume of clean well broidered bnckskin,
moccasins and loggings, all surmounted
ty a blanket It was not a distinguished
costume, but it 6eemod suitable to its
wearer. Mr. Armour's agent was in a
quandary. Ho had had no instructions
regarding her dress. Ho folt, of course,
that as Mra, Frank Armonr she should
put off these garments and dress as far
as possible in accordance with her new
position.' But when ho spoke about it
to Mackenzio, the elderly maid and com
panion, he found that Mr. Armour had
laid that his wife was to arrive in Eng
land dressed as she was. Ho saw some
thing ulterior in the matter, but it was
not his province to interfere. And so
Mrs. Frank Armour was a passenger
by the Aphrodite in her buckskin gar
ments. ,
What bho thought of.it all is not
quite easy to say. It is possible that at
first she only considered that sho was
the wlfo of a white man a thing to bo
desired and that tho man sho loved
was hers forever a matter of indefina
ble joy to her. That ho was sending her
to England did not fret her, because it
was his will, and he knew what was
host. Busy ith her contented and yet
somewhat dazed thoughts of him, she
was too happy to be very active men
tally, even if it had oeu tho character
istic of her raoe, Sho was not at first
aware of how much notice she excited
and how strange a figure she was in
this staring city. When it did dawn
upon her, she shrank a little, but still
was placid, preferring to sit, with her
hands folded in her lap, idly watching
things. She appeared oblivious that sho
was the wife of a man of family and
rank. Sho was only thinking that the
man was hers all hers.
He had treated her kindly enough in
the days they were together, but she
had not been a great deal with him bo
cause they traveled fast, and his duties
were many, or ho made them so, but
the latter possibility did not occur to
her. When he had hastily bidden her
farewell at Port Arthur, he had kissed
her and said, "Goodby, my wifo." She
was not acute enough yet in tho in flee-
"Goodby, my uifc."
tions of Saxon speech to catch the satire
almost involuntary in the last two
words. Sho remembered the words,
however, and the kiss, and she was
quite satisfied. To what she was going j
he did not speculate. He was sending
her that was enough.
The woman given to her as maid had
been well chosen. Armour had done
this carefully. Sho was Scotch, was re
lerved, bad a certain amount of shrewd
ness, would obey instructions and do
her duty carefully. What she thought
about the whole matter she kept to her
lelf. Even the solicitor at Montreal
could not find out She had her instruc
tions clear in hor mind. Sho was de
termined to carry them out to the let-tea-,
for which she was already well
paid and was likely to be better paid,
because Armour had arranged that she
. kould continue to be with his wife
liter they got to England. She under
stood well the language of Lali's tribo,
and because Lali's English was limited
i'ue would be indispensable in England.
Mackenzie therefore had responsibili
ty, and if she was not elated over it she
still know the importance of her posi
tion and- had enough practical vanity to
make her an efficient servant and com
panion. Sho already felt that sho had
got hex position in life, from which sho
was to go out no more forever. Sho
had been brought up in the shadow of
Alnwick castle, and 6he knew what was
due to her charge by other poopla
Herself only should have liberty with
her. She was taking Luli to the home
of General Armour, and that must be
kept constantly before her mind. There
fore from the day they set foot on the
Aphrodite she kept her place beside Mra
Armour, sitting with her they walkod
very little and soaroely ever speaking,
either to her or to the curious passen
gora Presently the passengers became
more inquisitive and made many at
tempts at being friendly, but those re
ceived little encouragement It had be
come known who the Indian girl was,
and marry wild tales went about as to
her marriage , with Francis Armour.
Now it was maintained she had saved
his life at an outbreak of her tribe;
again that she had found him dying in
the woods and had nursed him back to
life and health; yet again that she
was a chieftainess, successful claimant
Dgainst the Hudson's Bay company,
mid so on.
There were several on board who
knew the Armours well by name, and
two who knew them personally. One
was Mr. Edward Lambert, a barrister
f the Middle Temple, and tho other
was Mrs. Townley, a widow, a- member
of a well known Hertfordshire family,
who. on a pleasant tourney in Scotland,
hatL-inot, , conaaCTcnL. and maraed -

wealthy young American and haa been
left alone in tho world by no means
portionless 18 months before.
Lambert knew Richard Armour well,
and when, from Francis Armour's so
licitor, whom he know, ho heard just
beforo they started who the Indian girl
was he was greatly shocked and sorry.
Ho guessod at once tho motive, tho mad
ness, of this marriago. But' ho kept
his information and his opinions most
ly to himself, except in so far as it
seemed only due to friendship to con
tradict the numberless idle stories go
ing about. After tho first day nt sea ho
camo to know Mra Townley, andwhon
ho discovered that they had many mu
tual friends and that sho kuow the Ar
mours ho spoke a littlo mre freely to
her regarding the Indian wife and told
her what ho believed was the cause of
tho marriage.
Mrs. Townley was a woman a girl
of uncommon gentleness of disposi
tion, and in spite of her troubles in
clined, to view life with a sunny eye.
Sho had known of Frank Armour's en
gagement with Miss Julia Sherwood,
but sho had never heard the sequel. If
this was the sequel well, it had to be
faced. But sho was almost tremulous
with sympathy when sho remembered
Mrs. Armour and Frank's gay, fashion
ablo sister, Marion, and contemplated
the arrival of this Indian girl nt Grey
hope. She had always liked Frank Ar
mour, but this made her angry with
him, for . on secoud thought sho was
not more sorry for him and for his peo
ple than fur Lali, the wife. She had
tho true instinct of womanhood, and
she supposed that a heathen like this
could havo feelings to bo hurt and a life
to bo wounded as herself or another. At
least she saw what was possible in tho
future when this Indian girl came to
understand her position, only to bo ac
complished by contact with the new life
so different from her past.
Both she and Lambert decided that
she was very fine looking, notwithstand
ing her costume. Sho was slim and well
built, with modest bust and shapely
feet and ankles. Her eyes wero large,
meditative and intelligent, her features
distinguished. Sho was a goodly product
of her race, being descended from a line
of chiefs and chieftainesses, brokon
only in the case of her grandfather, as
we have said. Her bauds, tho two kind
ly inquisitors decided, were almost her
best point They were perfectly made,
slim, yet plump, tho fingers tapering,
the wrist supple. Mrs. Townley then
and there decided that the girl had pos
sibilities. But hero sho was, an Indian,
with few signs of civilization or that
breeding which seems to whito peoplo
the only breoding fit for earth or heaven.
Mrs. Townley did not need Lambert's
suggestion that sho should try to ap
proach the girl, make friends with her
and prepare her in some slight . degree
for tho strange career beforo her.
Mrs. TmsrJey had an infinite amount
of tact. Sho know it was best to ap
proach tho attendant first. This sho did,
and to the surprise of other lady pas
sengers received no rebuff. Her advance
was not, however, rapid. Mackenzie
had had her instructions. When sho
found that Mrs. Townley knew Francis
Armonr and his peoplo, she thawed a
little more, and then very hesitatingly
she introduced her to the Indian wife.
Mrs. Townley smiled her best, and
there wero many who knew how attract
ive she could bo at 6iich a momont.
Thero was a slight pause, in which
Lali looked at her meditatively, earnest
ly, and then those beautifukwild fingers
glided out and caught her hand and
held it, but she spoke no word. She
only looked inquiringly, seriously, at
her new found friend and presently
dropped the blanket away from lit and
sat up firmly, as though sho felt she
was not altogether an alien now and
bad a right to hold herself proudly
among white people, as she did in her
own country and with her own tribe,
who had greatly admired her. Certain-
Those hcantiful wild ftnijert glided out
and cauyht her hand,
ly Mrs. ".Townley could find no fault
with the woman as an Indian. She had
taste, carried her clothes well and was
superbly fresh in oppearance, though
her hair still tore very slight traces of
tho greaso which even tho most aristo
cratic Indians use.
BntLali would not talk. "Mrs. Town-
ley was anxious that the girl should be
dressed In European costume and of
ferod to lond her and rearrange dresses
of her own, but sho came in collision
with Mr. Armour's instructions. So
she bad to assume a merely kind and
comforting attitude. Tho wifo had not
the slightest idea whore Bhe was going,
and oven whon Mackenzie, at Mrs.
Townley's oft repeated request, ex
plained very briefly and unpicturesque
ly she only looked incredulous or un
concerned. Y ot the ship, its ourious pas
sengers, the dining saloon, the music,
"0 sea and all had given hor sugges-(
t , as of What was to coma They had
expected that at table she would be
awkward and ignorant to a degree. But
she had at times eaten at the trader's
table at Fort Charles and had learned
how to use a knifo and fork. She hod
also been a favorite with the trader's
wifo, who had taught her many civi
lized thinaa. . Her English, thcniza-f ax
from abundant was good. Thoso, there
fore, who were curious and rude enough
to stare at her were probably disappoint-,
ed to find that she ate like "any Chris
torn man." ,
"How do you think the Armours
will receive her?" said Lambert to Mra
Townloy, of whoso Judgment on' short
acquaintance ho had come to entertain a
high opinion.
Mrs. Townloy had a pretty way of
putting her head to one sido and speak
ing very piquantly. She had had it as
a gifl. She had not lost it as a woman,
any more than she had lost a soft little
spontai.jous laugh which was one of her
unusual charms, for f" women can
laugh audibly with effect one laughed
very softly now, and her sense of humor
supervening for the moment she said:
"Keally you have asked mo a conun
drum. I fancy I see Mra Armour s face
when sho gets the news at the break
fast table, of course and gives a littlo
shriek, and says, 'General, oh, general!'
But it is all very shocking, you know,"
she added in a lower voice. "Still I
think thoy will receive her and do tho
best they can for hor, because, you seo,
there she is married hard and fast bho
bears the Armour name and is likely to
uinko them all very unhappy indeed if
sho determines to retaliate upon them
for any neglect "
Yes? But how to retaliate, Mrs
Townley?" Lambert had not a suggest
ive mind.
"Well, for instance, suppose thoy
sent her away into seclusion with
Frank's conseut, another serious ques
tion and she should take the notion to
fly hor retirement and appear iuoppor
tunoly at some social function clothed
as she is now. I fancy her blanket
would be a wet blanket in such a case,
if you will pardon the little joke."
Lambert sighod. "Poor Frank I Poor
devil I" ho said almost beneath his
breath.
"And wherofore poor Frank? Do you
think ho or tho Armours of Greyhopo
are the only ones at stake in this?
What about this poor girl? Just think
why ho married her, if our suspicions
are right, nnd tbon imagine her feel
lugs when she wakes to the truth over
thero, as some time sho is suro to do I"
Then Lambert began to see the mat
ter in a different light, and his sym
pathy for Francis Armour grow less as
his pity for the girl increased. In fact,
the day before thoy got to Southamp
ton ho swore at Armour more than onco
and was anxious concerning the recep
tion of tthe heathen wife by her white
relatives.
Had he been present at a certain
scene at Greyhopo a day or two before
he -would havo been still more anxious.
It was tho custom at breakfast for Mrs.
Armour to open her . husband's letters
and read them while he was engaged
with his newspaper and hand to him
afterward those that were important.
This morning Marion noticed a lott6r
from Frank among tho pile and with
out a word pounced upon it. She was
curious, as any woman would be, to
see how he took Miss Sherwood's action.
Her father was deep in his paper at the
time, ner mother was reading other
lettera Marion read tho first f ow lines
with a feeling of almost painful won
der, the words were so curious, cynical
and cold.
Richard sat opposite her. He also was
engaged with his paper, but chancing
to glance up saw that she was becoming
very pale and that the letter trembled
in her Augers. Being a little short
sighted, he was not near enough to see
the handwriting. Ho did not speak yet.
He watched. Presently, seeing her grow
more excited, he touched her foot under
tho table. She looked up and caught his
eve. She caspod slightly. She gavo
him a warning look and turned" away
from her mother. Then she went oa
reading to the bitter end. Preseutly a
little cry escaped her against her will.
At that her mother looked up, but sho
only saw her daughter's back, as she
rose hurriedly from the table, saying
that sho would return in a moment,
Mrs. Armour, however, had been star
tled. She know that Marion hnd been
reading a letter, and with a mother's
instinct her thoughts wore instantly on
Frank. Sho spoke quickly, almost sharp
ly, "Marion, comohero."
Richard had risen. . He came round
tho table, and as tho girl obeyed her
mother took tho letter from hor fingers
and hastily glanced over it. Mra Ar
mour came forward and took her dmiglv
ter's arm. "Marion," sho said, "there
is somothing wrong with Frank. What
is it?"
General Armonr was now looking up
at them all curiously, questioningly,
through his glasses, his paper laid down,
his handB resting on the table.
Marion could not answer. She was
sick with regret, vexation and shame.
At tho first fluBh death for Frank
had been preferable to thia Sho had
considorablo store of vanity. ' Sho was
not very philosophical. Besides she was
not married, and what Captain Vidall,
her dovoted admirer and possible hus
band, would think of this heathenish
alliance was not a cheerful thought to
her.
I Sho choked down a sob and waved
her hand toward Richard to answer for
her. Ho was pale, too, but cool. He un
derstood tho caso instantly. He made
up his mind instantly also as to what
ought to bo must be done.
"Well, mother," he said, "it is
about Frank. But he is all right that
is, he is alive and well in body. But
he tins arranged a hateful little embar
rassment for ua Ho is married. "
"Married!" said his mother faintly.
"Oh, poor Lady Agnosl"
Marion sniffed a little viciously at
this.
"Married! Married!" said his father.

The " Discovery " purifies, vitalizes and
enriches the blood, thereby invigorating the
system and building up wholesome flesh
when reduced by wistipg. diseases.
"Well, what about it, eh? What about
it?" ;
The mother wrung hir hands. "Ob,
I know it is somothing dreadful dread
ful t He has married some horrible wild
person or somothing."
Richard; miBorable as ho was, re
mained, calm. "Well," said ho, "I
don't know about her being horrible.
Frank is silent on that point, but she is
wild enough a wild Indian, in fact "
Indian I Indian I Good God, a red
nigger 1" cried Geuoral Armour harsh
ly, starting to his feet
"An Indian! A wild Indian!" Mrs.
Arruour whispered faintly as she drop
ped into a chair.
"And she'll bo hero in two or three
days!", fluttered Marion hysterically.
Meanwhile Richard had hastily pick
ed up Tho Times. "She is due here the
day after tomorrow, he said deliber
ately. "Frank is as decisive as he is
rash. Well, it is a melancholy tit for
tat"
"What do you mean by tit for tat?"
cried his father angrily.
"Oh, I mean that that we tried to
hasten Julia's marriage with the other
fellow, and ho is giving us one in re
turn, and you will all agree that it's a
protty permanont one. "
Tho old soldier recovered himself and
was beside his wife in an instant. He
took her hand. "Don't fret about it
wifo," ho said. "It's an ugly busi
ness, but we must pnt up with it. The
boy was out of his head. We are old
now, my dear, but there was a time
when wo should have resented such a
thing as much as Frank, though not in
the samo fashion perhaps not in tho
same fashion. " Tho old man pressed
his lips hard to keep down his emotion.
Oh, how could he, how could he!"
said his mother. "We meant every,
thing for the best."
It is always dangerous business
meddling with lovers' affairs, " rejoined
Richard. "Lovers take themselves very
seriously indeed, and well, hero the
thing is. Now, who will go and fetch
her from Liverpool? I should say that
both my father and my mother ought
to go,"
Thus Richard took it for granted that
they would receive Frank's Indian wifo
into their home. Ho intended that, so
fur as ho was concerned, there should
be no doubt upon tho question from the
beginning.
Never! Sho shall never come here! '
said Marion with flashing eyes. "A com'
mon squaw, with greasy hair and blun
kets and big month and black teeth, who
eats with her fingers and grunts! If she
does, if she is brought to Greyhope, I
will never show my face in the world
again. Frank murricd the animal
Why does ho ship her homo to us? Why
didn't ho come with her? Why does ho
not tako her to a home of his own and
not send her here to turn our house into
a menagerie?"
Marion drew her skirt back, as if the
common squaw, witn her blankets ana
grease, was at that moment near hor.
"Well, you see, oontinued Richard,
"that is just it. As I said, Frank ar
ranged this littlo complication with a
trifling amount of malice. No doubt he
didn't como with her because he wished
to test the family loyalty and hospital
ity, but a postscript to his letter says
that his solicitor has instructions to
meet his wife at Liverpool and bring
her on hero in case we fail to show her
proper oourtosy.
General Armour hero spoke. "He has
carried tho war of retaliation very far
indeed, but men do mad things when
their blood is up, as I have seen often,
That doesn't alter our clear duty in the
matter. If tho woman were bad or
shameful, it would be a different thing,
If'
Marion interrupted, "She has ridden
bareback across the continent like a
jockey like a common jockey and she
wears a blanket, and she doesn't know
a word of English, and sho will sit on
the floor."
"Well," said her father, "all these
things are not sins, and she must be
taught better."
"Joseph, how can you?" said Mrs,
Armour indignantly. "She cannot sho
shall not come hero. Think of Marion!
Think of our position!" Sho hid her
troublod tear stained face behind her
handkerchief. At the same time she
grasped her husband's hand. She know
that he was right. She honored him in
her heart for tho position he had taken,
but she could not resist tho natural im
pulse of a woman whore her taste and
convention were shocked.
The old man was very palo, but there
was no mistaking his determination.
He had been nioro indignant than any
of them at first, but ho had an unusual
sense of justice when he got face to
face with it, as Richard had hereholped
him to do. "We do not know that the
woman has done any wrong, " he said,
"As for our name and position, they,
thank God, are where a mad marriage
cannot nnsoat them. We have had much
prosperity in the world, my wife. Wo
have had neither death nor dishonor.
We'
"If this isn't dishonor, father, what
is?" Marion flashed out.
Ho answered calmly: "My daughtor,
it is a great misfortune. It will proba'
bly be a lifelong trail, but it is not
necessarily dishonor. "
"You never can mako a scandal less
by trying to hide it " said , Richard,
backing up his father. "It is all pretty
awkward, but I dare say we shall get
some amusement out of it in the end. '
"Richard," said his mother through
her tears, "you are flippant and uu
kind."
"Indeed, mother," was his reply, "I
never was more serious in my life.
When I spoke of amusement I meant
oomedy merely, not fun tho thing that
looks like tragody and has a happy end'
ing. That is what I moon, mother, noth
ing more.
"You are always so very deep, Rich
ard," remarked Marion ironically, "and
care so very littlo how the rest of us
feel about things. You have no family
pride. If you had married a squaw, we
shouldn't have been surprised. You
oould have camped in tho grounds with

missed by tho world," she hastened to
add, for sho saw a 6uduen pain in his
fuoe.
He turned from them all a little wear
ily and limped over to the window. Ho
stood thero looking out into the limes
where" he and Frank had played When
boys. . Ho put his finger tip, his unhand'
some finger, and caught away somo
. moifitnre from bis ryes. He did not daro
to let them see bis face nor yet to speak.
'Marion hod out uocper than she know,
. o,lr! Mmthu nrnrmrl .n man
a day before it healed. ,
But hi. slater felt Inatantli bow eruoll
she bad been as Bho saw him limp away
and caught sight of the bowed shoulders
and prematurely gray hair. Hor heart
smote her. Sho ran over and impul
sively put her hands on his shoulder.
Ob, Dick, she said, "forgive me,
Dickl I didn't moan it I was angry and
foolish and hateful. "
Ho took one of hor bands as it rested
on his shoulder, she standing partly bo
hind him, and raised it to his lips, but
he did not turn to her; he could not
It is all right; it is all right," he
said. "It doesn't make any difference.
Let us think of Frank and what we have
got to do. Let us stand together, Ma
rion. That is best."
But her tears were dropping on his
Bhoulder as her fonhead rested on her
hand. Ho knew, dw that whutever
Frank's wife was ! jlo would not have
an absolute enemy here, for when Ma
rion cried her heart was soft. She wus
clay in the hands of tho potter whom
we call Mercy more often a stranger
to the hearts of women than men. At
the other side of tho room also .the
father aird mother, tearless now, watch
ed these two, and the mother saw her
duty -better and with less rebellious
ness. Sho had felt it from tho first but
she could not bring her mind to do it.
Thoy hold each other'B hands in silence.
Presently General Armour said, "Rich
ard, your mother- and I will go to Liver
pool to meet our son's wifo. "
Marion shuddered a little, and her
hands closed on Richard's shoulder, but
she said nothing.
