CHAPTER VIL
It vr&s bard to toll, save for a certain
deliberatcueas of speech and a color a
little more pronounced than that of a
Spanish woman, that Mrs. Frank Ar
mour had not boon brought up in Eng
land. Sho had a kind of grave sweetness
and distant charm which made her no
table at any table or in any ballroom.
Indeed it soon became apparent that she
was to be tho pleasant talk, tho interest
of the season. This was tolerably com
forting to the Armours. Again Rich
ard's prophecy had been fulfilled, and
as he sat alone at Grey hope and read
The Morning Post, noticing Lali's name
at distinguished gatherings, or, picking
up The World, saw how the lion hunt
era talked extravagantly of her, he took
Borne satisfaction to himself that he had
foreseen her triumph where others look
ed for her downfall. Lall herBolf was
not elated. It gratified her, but she had
been an angel, and a very unsatisfactory
one, if it had not done so.
As her confidonco grow (though out
wardly she had never appeared to lack
1 it greatly) she did not hesitate to speak
of herself as an Indian, her country as
a good oountry and her pwiplo as a no
ble if dispossessed race all tho more
so if she thought reforonce to her na
tionality and pant was being rather con
spicuously avoided. Sho had asked
General Armour for an intorviow with
her husband's solioitor. This was grant
ed. When sho met tho solicitor, she
asked him to send no newspaper to her
husband containing any roforence to
herself, nor yet to mention her in his
letters. .
She had never directly received a lino
from him but once, and that was after
sho had come to know tho truth about
his marriage with her." . She could read
in the conventional sentences, made
simple as for a child, the strained po
liteness and his absolute silence as to
whether or not a child had been born to
them, tho utter absence of affection for
her. She had also induced Qenoral Ar
mour and his wife to give her husband's
solicitor no information regarding the
birth of the child. There was thus ap
parently no more inducement for him'
to hurry back to England than there
was when he had sent her off on his
mission of retaliation, which had been
such an ignominious failure, for tho
humiliation of his family had been short
lived, the affront to Lady Haldwell
nothing at all. The Armours had not
been human if they had failed to enjoy
their daughter-in-law's success. Al
though they never perhaps would quite
recover from the disappointment con
cerning Lady Agnes Martling, tho result
was so much better than they in thoir
. cheerfullost momenta dared hopo for
that they appeared genuinely content
To their grandchild they wore devot
edly attached. Marion was his faithful
slavo and admirer, so much so that Cap
tain Vidall, who now and then was
permitted to see the child, declared him
solf jealous. He and Marion were to be
married soon. Tho wedding had boon
delayed owing to his enforced absonce
abroad. Mrs. Edward Lambert, once
Mrs. Townley, shyly regretted in Lali's
presence that the child or cue as sweet
was not hers. Her husband evidently
shared her opinion from tho extraordi
nary notice he took of it when his wife
was not present. - Not that Richard Jo
seph Armour, Jr., was always en evi
dence, but when naked for by his faith
ful friends and admirers he was amia
bly produced.
Meanwhile Frank Armour across tho
sea was engaged with many things.
His businoss concerns had not prospered
prodigiously, chiefly because hia judg
ment, as his temper, had grown some
what uncertain. His popularity in tho
Hudson bay country had been at some
tension since he had shipped his wife
away to England. Even the ordinary
savago mind saw something unusual
' and uudomestio in it, ami the general
hospitality declined a . little. Armour
did not immediately guess the cause,
but one day about a year after his wife
had gono he found occasion to reprove
a half breed, by name Jacques Pontiao,
and Jacques, with more honesty than
politeness, said some hard words and
( asked how-much he paid for his Eng
lish hired devils to kill his wife. Strango
to say, he did not resent this startling
, remark. It set him to thinking. lie be
gan to blame himself for not having
written oftener to Mb people and to
his wifa' He wondered how far his re
venge had succeeded. Ho was most
ashamed of it now. He knew that he
had done a dishonorable) thing. The
more he thought upon it the more angry
; with himself ho became. Yet he dread
ed to go back to England and face it
all the reproach of, his people, the
; amusement of society, his wife herself.
He never attempted to picture her as a
civilized being. He scarcely knew her
when he married her. She knew him
tnuoh better, for primitive people . are
quioker in the play of their passions,
and she had come to love him before he
had begun to notice her at alL
Presently he ate his heart out with
mortification, To be yoked forever to a
savage 1 1$ was horrible I Their children?
It was strange he had not thought of
that befora Children? He Bhrugged his
shoulders. There might possibly be a
child, but children never! But he
doubted even regarding a child, for no
word had come to him concerning that
possibility. He was even most puzzled
at the tone and substance of their let
ters. From the beginning there had
been no reproaches, no excitement, no
railing, but studied kiudnoss and con
ventional statements, through -which
Mrs, Armour's solicitous . affection
scarcely ever peeped. He had shot his
bolt and got consideration, almost im
perturbability. "They appeared "Jx treat
the matter as though he were a wild
youth who wpnld bt mend his ways.

him; his to them had been-still more

again that "sho appeared anxious to
adapt herself to her new life. "
At all these he whistled a little to
himself and smiled bitterly. Then, all
at once, he got up and straightway
burned them all. Ho again tried to put
the matter behind him for the present,
knowing that ho must face it one day,
and staving off its reality as long as
possible. Ho did his utmost to be philo
sophical and say his quid refcrt, but it
was easier tried than dono, for Jacques
Pontiao's words kept rankling in his
mind, and he found himself carrying
round a vagne load which mailo him
abstracted, occasionally and often a lit
tle reckloss in action and speech. In
hunting bear and moose he had proved
himself more daring than tho oldest
hunter and proportionately successful.
Ho paid his servants well, but was
sharp wiiu them. Ho made long, hard
expeditions, defying tho weather as the
hardiest of prairio and mountain men
mostly hesitate to defy it. Ho bought
up much land, thon, dissatisfied, sold
it again at a loss, but subsequently
made final arrangements for establish
ing a very liirgo farm.
When ho once became actually inter
ested in this, ho shook off something of
his-moodinoss and settled himself to de
volop the thing. He had good talent for
initiative and administration and at
last, in the time when his wife was a
feature of the London season, he found
his schemo in working ordor, and tho
necessity of going to England was forced
upon him.
Actually ho wished that the absolute
necessity had presented itself befora
There was always the moral necessity,
of courso but then! Here now was a
business need, and he must go. Yet ho
did not fix a day or make definito ar
rangements. He could hardly have be
lieved hiniBolf such a coward. With
liberal emphasis he called himself a
sneak, and one day at Fort Charles sat
down to write to his solioitor in Mont
real to say that he would come on at
once. Still ho hesitated. As he sat there
thinking Eyo-of-the-Moon, his father-in-law,
opened tho door quietly ond en
tered. He had avoided tho chief ever
since he had come back to Fort Charles
and practically had not spoken to him
for a year. Armour flushed slightly
with annoyance. But presently, with a
touch of his old humor, he rose, held
out his hand and said ironically: "Well,
father-in-law, it's about time we had a
big talk, isn't it? Wo are not very in
timate for such closo relatives."
Tho old Indian did not fully under
stand the meaning or the tone of Ar
mour's speech, but he said, "Howl"
and reaching out his hand for the pipe
offered him lighted it and sat down,
smoking in silence. Armour waited;
but, seeing that tho other was not yet
moved to talk, he turned to his letter
again. After a timo Eye-of-the-Moon
said gravely, getting to his feet,
"Brother!"
Armour looked up; then roso also.
The Indian bowed to him courteously;
then sat down again. Armour threw a
leg over the cruer of the tablo and
waited.
"Brother, " said the Indian present
ly, "you are of the great roco that con
quers us. Yon come and take our land
and our game, and we have to beg of
you for food and shelter. Then you take
our daughters, and we know not whore
they go. They are gone, like the down
from tho thistle. We see them not, but
you remain. And men say evil things.
There are bad words abroad. Brother,
what have you done with my daugh
ter?" Had the Indian come and stormed,
begged money of him, spongod on him
or abused him he had taken it very
ealmly. He, in fact, had been superior.
But there was dignity in the chief's
manner; there was solemnity in his
speech; his voice oonveyed resoluteness
and earnestness, which the stoic calm
of hia face might not have suggested,
and Armour felt that ho had no advan
tage at all Beside, Armour had a con
science, thongh he had played some rare
tricks with it of Into, and it neoded
more hardihood than he possessed to
face this old man down. And' why face
hini down?. .Lali was his daughter,
blood of his blood, the chieftainess of
one branch of his people, honored at
least among thew nooi ravages, and the
old man had a right to ask, as asked
another more famous, "Where is my
daughter?" " ' .
His hands in his pockets, Armour sat
silent for a minute, eying his boot as he
swuug his leg to and fro. Presently he
said: "Eye-of-the-Moon, I don't think
I can talk as poetically as 'you, even in
my own language, and I shall not try,
but I should like to ask you this, Do
yon believe any harm has come to your
daughter to my wife?"
The old Indian forgot to blow the to
bacco smoke from his mouth, and as he
sat debating, lips slightly apart, it came
leaking out in little trailing clouds and
gave a strange appearance to his iron
featured face. He, looked steadily at
Armour and said: ''You are of those
who rule in your land" hero Armour
protested "you have much gold to buy
and sell I am a chief" ho drew him
self up "I am poor. We speak with
the straight tongue. It is cowards who
lie. Speak deep, as from the heart, my
brother, and toll me where my daugh
ter is."
Armour could not' but respect the
chiof for the way this request was put,
but still it galled him to think that he
was under suspicion of having done any
bodily injury to his wife, so he quietly
persisted, "Do you think I have done
Lali any barm?" "
"Tho thing is strange," replied the
other. ."You are of those who are groat
among your people. You married a
daughter of a rod man. Then she was
yours for kiss than one moon, and you
sent her far away, and yon staid. Her
father was as a dog in your sight Do
men whoso hearts ace clear act so? They
have said strange things of yon. I have

daughter?'
grave. Ho was about to reply to the
chief when the trader entered the room
hurriedly with a newspaper in his hand.
Ho paused abruptly when ho saw Eye-pf-the-Moon.
Armour felt that the
trader had something important to com
municate. He guessed it was in tho pa
per. Ho mutely held out his hand for it
The trader handed it to him hesitating
ly, at the same time pointing to a para
graph and saying: "It is nearly two
years old, as you sea I chanced upon it
by acoideut today. "
It was a copy of a London evening
paper containing a somewhat sensa
tional account of Lali's accident It said
that sho was in a critical oonditioa
This timo Armour did not ask for
brandy, but the trader put it out beside
him. Ho shook his head. "Gordon,"
he said presontly, "I shall leave here
in the morning. Please send my men to
ma"
The trader whispered to him: "She
was all right, of course, long ago, Mr.
Armour, or you would have heard."
Armour looked at the date of the pa
per. Ho had several letters from Eng
land of a later date, and these said noth
ing of her illness. It bewildered him;
made him uneasy. Perhaps the first real
sense of his duty as a husband came
home to him thera For the first time
he was anxious about the woman for
her own Bake. The trader had left the
room.
"What a scoundrel I've been!" said
Armour between his teeth, oblivious for
the moment of ye-of-the Moon's pres
.edce. Presently, bethinking himself, he
turned to the Indian. "I've been debat
ing, "be said. "Eye-of-the-Moon, my
wifo is in England, at my father's home.
I am going to her. Men have lied in
thinking I would do her any injury,
but, but never mind, the harm was of
another kind. It isn't wise for a white
man and an Indian to marry, but when
they are married well, they must live
as man and wifo should live, and, as I
said, I am going to my wife your
daughter. "
To say all this to a common Indian
whose only property was a half dozen
ponies and a couple of tepees required
something very liko moral courage, but,
then, Armour had not been exercising
moral courage during the last year or so,
and its exerdse was profitable to him.
The next morning h was on bis way to
Montreal, and Eye-of-the-Moon was the
richest chief in British North America
at that moment by $3,000 or so. 1
