I was never happy .-it Aunt
KrowneX but tin re ptcinetl no iros-
nect that I should ever k-ave her.
I had come, so to speak, as far :is
any one so repressed could come out,
but I miht aa well have stayed in.
I only sat in corners, talked with
the chaperons, or listened to some
garrulous octogenarian. Aunt
UrowneV interest in me, such as it
was, died a natural deatli after my
first season it had always been
weakly and the result was a sad
deficiency in my wardrode. She
had married off two daughters with
out diflkulty, but a niece, it seemed,
stuck closer than a burr. However,
it was not my fault that I remained
unmarried. I had done my best to
be fascinating. Though I ha'.cd
the idea of marrying fur home, or
position, yet I was sure I should
not und it hard to love one who
was kind to me, if only on account
of the novelty. I was thirty now,
and not unused to hearing charges
runs ui.on the old maid, and the
beggars who shouldn't be choosers
by my younger cousins, Susette and
Anne. I'.ut I had had one opportu
nity to change for better or worse of
which they had never ureameu. l he
son of Aunt Drowne's second hus
band, Gedric Urowne, had asked me
to marry him, three years before, a
we rowed up the river in June for
the rosy laurel blooms, to decorate
the house and piazza for Susette s
birthday fete. I sometimes wonder
ed what Aunt Browne would have
thought of the proceeding, as she
had set her heart on marrving Su
sette to Cedric Perhaps I refused
him because I was taken unawares,
because I was not enough interested
to care about frustrating Aunt
Browne's plans ; perhaps 1 did not
expect to be taken at my word, but
imagined it the proper way to de
cline, in order to be importuned, I
believe all my favorite heroines had
conducted in" this wise. However,
wc rowed home through the sunset,
our boat heaped with pink Hower3,
in silence.
"You look aa if you were laden
with sunset clouds," said .Susette,
who was watching for us on the
shore; but I am certain that Cedric
looked like a thunder cloud.
The next day was the fclc. Eve-
,-1 rA tr l.rrmfrlif Tirpcfinfa t"-irSnfdtf
1 , 1 V V i , yAvrv.B...v J ....... A . f . .- --.-.
Cedric brought her an antique neck
lace ot torquoises : 1 was sure he
had ment it for me. Wc had sup
ped out-of-doors, under the great
pine trees, and dancing by moon-
idit. That day I began to rcsrard
Cedric Browne attentively. I had
known him under the same roof for
some weeks at a time ; I had laugh
ed and talked with him, believing
him fore-ordained to minister to tu
sotte's happiness, "as inaccessible as
a star in heaven," so far as I was
concerned. He had helped me with
Adele's children, who come to live
it Aunt Browne's when their moth
er diet!. But that he should regard
me with any tender emotions I had
never dared" to wish. In fact, I had
thought little about him till to-day,
I had never observed till to-day that
his eyes were as tender as stars, that
his face was like that radient count
enance of Mozart in the music-roam,
that his smile was simply enchant
ment It was rather late to make
these discoveries.
He did not leave us at once : it
seemed as if he stayed just long
enough for me to know all I had
lost Since then he had been with
us once again for a whole month ;
but little Walter wa3 ill with a spi
nal affection tltai kept him on his
back, and me by his side; and
though Cedric used to relieve me of
ten by day and by night, I could ec c
from my window and from occciuon
al glimpses into the drawing-room,
that the balance of his time was
spent in Susettes company.
"Aunjt Susette's beau is going to
make me ft kite," Teddy contided to
Walter one day.
'Who', lie?" asked Walter, from
his bed.
"Why, Cedric, of course Cedric
Browne. Bridget says eo herself,"
as if that put the matter beyond dis
pute. The next day, when Cedric came
un to amuse A alter with the atiairs
l' il.A .,11. .
downstairs mak yvuui uunanuiu ,
"I 6ay, are you weallv Aund Su-
seet 8 beau, Cedric 7 Adricnnc s ever
so nice. When I'm a man I shall
marry Adrienne."
"Then you'll be luuth luckier
than I," said Cedric, winding up a
top, and spinning it on his palm.
It was a 3'ear since then. I no
longer went out; I was fairly paisec.
Aunt Browne had abandoned all
hopes of me. I was a good nursery
maid, a cheap governess, and an in
expensive companion, in the family.
In the meantime I could have mar
ried any day, if 1 had chosen to ac
cept the llev. Abel Amherst, aud
transfer my labors to the parsonage
To be sure, this would not have
proved the brilliant marriage my
aunt had expected of me, nor the
romantic one I had dreamed of my
st If, and it was not until I came in
to possc-sion of a certain family se
cret, that I began to revolve the pos
sibility in my mind. It seems that
when my aunt rnarried her second
husband, Mr. Browne, Susette and
Anee were both Lowdls, they had
subsisted upon the patrimony left to
Cedric by his own mother, and that
after his father's death, Cedric had
turned in the same yearly income
from the estate for tlio family use,
and that I, Adrienno Lennox, owed
my daily bread to the man whom I
had refused, and who had forgotten
me. Earning my own livelihood,
was out of the question, drudgery j
was my only vocation, and that was
too badly paid to bo encouracing.
I looked at the lie v. Abel Amhcn
often at this period, with a view of
installing him into Ccdric's place, if
U'dnc would only vacate, ulad
enough, Mr. Amherst renewed hi;
suit at this tunc, and lires.sins: it
with the eagerness of a lover, and
for the first time I began to hesitate.
The woman who hesitates is lost,"
said .Musette.
I had been out on the hills one
day trying to m ike up mv mind to
forget Ccilnc, and marry Mr. Am
herst ; but whenever I began to
think with some interest of going to
parish meetings, becoming the pres
ident ot Dakota Leagues and sew
ing circles, visiting the poor, drink
ing tea opposite the liev. Mr. Am
herst all the rest of my days, some
how or other, Cedric's face would
slip into the picture uninvited, and
blot out his nvai s as strong sun
light fades a negative photograph.
There is a letter for you, Ad
rienne," said Aunt Browne, when I
entered the hoiicc, "in the music-
room, on the top of the dado, under
Mozart's picture.'" I went into the
isic-room, but there was no letter
to be seen.
"Perhaps one f;f the girls has re
moved it," she suggested. '"But no
one else has meddled with it."
"Grandma ejuked a letter over
the tea-kettle," said little Freddy, reflectively.
"Yes," said grandma, 'T wrote a
letter to your pa, child. I hadn't
any blotting paper out the lire an
swers the purpose nut as well."
At that time I had never hoard of
ojening letters by steam. Well, wc
ransacked the house for that truant
letter, but all in 'vain.
"Where was it from aunt ?" I
asked.
"How should I know, child ?"
"But the hanwriting the post
mark ?"
"The postmark was blurred."
"Had it a foreign stamp ?" I ask
ed with a sudden eagerness. Cedric
had gone abroad some months be
fore, and I had not heard of hi.? re
turn.
"A foreign stamp ? No. Were you
expecting a foreign letter '?"
"X-o; butit is the unexpected
that always happens, )'ou know."
"It's awfully provoking," paid Su
sec te. "Perhaps it was only the rec
ipes Mrs. Clarke was going to send
you."
"Nothing more likely ; but what
has become of it ? It's a prolonged
game of hunt the thimble.
" "And supposing it's i letter noti
fying you of the existence of a first
Mrs. Amherst," put in Anne, "or a
legacy left by your forty-fifth cousin
in Australia!" And then the door
bell rang.
Well, after that I suppose I
have accepted Mr. Amherst,
rvbodv behaved as it I had.
ceiyed congratulations and a
and the parish began repairs
the parsonage, before I could muster
courage to tell Mr. Amherst all
about Cedric and my mistake, r.nd
now I wasn't at all sure I could ever
get over it, and care for anybody
else, but that I would do my best.
And he smiled in a sort of absent
way when I told him, but seemed
content to tike me a3 I was for bet
ter or worse ; only it did strike me
sometimes that he was the most un
demonstrative lover in Christendom;
but I hadn't much experience in
lovers, and perhaps tlicy weren't as
gushing in real life as in novel pic
tured. He used to kis3 my hand
when we parted ; that was all. He
was very gentle, but a little sad, I
fancied, with a look which might
mean that he was afraid of so much
happiness, or that to marry the wo
man that he loved wasn't all that
fancy had painted it; and some
times I thought I had perhaps done
wrong to tell him everything about
Cedric so unreservedly ; yet I had
only meant to be honest But the
day was appointed, and suddenly
Cedric appeared among us, when I
thought he was at the world's end,
and he and the girls decorated the
littie church with white field daisies
and grasses for the occasion. 1 ou
may believe that I avoided the
sight of Cedric in the interval before
the wedding as much a3 possible,
but somehow I was always stum
bling upon him ; ho seemed to be
perpetually at my elbow ; he sur
prised me more than once with trac
es of tears upon my face : the sound
of his voice made my heart turn
and quiver within me. If I had
dared to withdraw at this juncture,
I'm afraid I should have done so ;
but it was too late ; and though I
felt like a hypocrite whenever Mr.
Amherst appeared, Iiis look of sober
satisfaction, which reminded me of
those lines of Matthew Ilovden on
Sir Phillip Sidney :
"A full assurance given by looks
Continual comfort in a face,
The linetuenls of gospel books,"
might have taught me that all was
well with him.
"You arc the oddest sweetheart I
must
re-
nng,
upon
ever saw," gossiped Fuselfe. "I
wouldn't give you a tiiaw f.jr sU'. li a
lowrjand as for you Alrici.ne,
you resemble a ghost more than a
bride."
In short, a thousand years of pur
gatory would ill represent mv suf
ferings during those last weeks be
fore my wedding. W ell,' to crown
the whole, Aunt'Brownc said Cedric
must give me away ; he was the on
ly man relative, the head of the fam
ily, so to'spoak, 'and he could do it
so admirably. .
"Wo shall see,", said he. "I'm
afraid I should make a poor figure
at giving Adrienne awav ;" and he
stroked his trte moustache aa he
spoke, and looked at me just as he
looked that day when we gathered
the laurel for Susette's fete I could
nave sworn ne uiu. a man t nn
s er, for fear my voice would be
husky, and the tears would start.
The wedding was to be quite pri
vate only relatives. Aunt Urowne
arranged everything to suit herself
and the proprieties; it didn't Xecome
a clergyman's bride to make a great
parade. At the church, I remember,
my veil caught in the carriage door,
and an orange blossom tumbled
from my wreath, which Cedric pick
ed up and wore in his button-hole
. . . ........ w
1 lie n he drew mv hau-lneless arm
within his, and directly the. Wed
ding March pealed fortli in great re
sounding waves ol . melody. My
grandmother's India muslin blew
out in abundant creamy folds be
hind me, and Cedric and I were
standing before the altar, and Mr.
Amherst was reading the marriage
service,
I believe that Aunt Browne faint
ed, or she would have forbidden the
bans
"You sec, it was impassible for mc
to give you away, Adrienne," said
Cedric, later, when we were steam
ing out of town. "Amherst is a
trump ; and may he find a wife as
sweet as Mrs. Browne ! If it hadn't
been for him, I should have been of
all men the most miserable to-day.
What tlo you think ho did ? Why,
he wrote me all of that sad little
story you thouzht right to tell him,
and added that ho would not deny
lie was making a sacrifice ; 'that in
renouncing you, he renounced ail
that made life lovely to hiia, except
his v.-ork ; yet he felt it was better
that one should fail of a heaven on

forget me."
"Never !"
He went on.
"Nelly, I shall hunger for you day
and night, more and more, as time
goes on and I get older, lonelier,
more weary. But I shall never
hope to see you again. Now give me
your hand."
She gave him both, lie raised
them to his lips, but before she
could speak again he was gone.
Shivering violently, she went to
the fire, and stood there trying to
warm herself. She understood it
all now his strangely elaborate
arrangements for a trip to New
York. He had known that he was
not coming back when she had beg
tred him to bring her his photograph
from the great metropolis, but was
going on on into the dim dis
tance. This is why he had not
promised.
It was getting late she was so
cold she had better go to bed. She
would not go into the parlor to bid
her father and aunt, and Gregory
good night ; so she crept silently up
to her own room. There the very
weight of grief upon her lulled her
to sleep.
But when she awoke, her grief
sprang upon her like some hidden
monster who had lain in wait for
her all night. Her misery terrified
her. Why should she not the? Why
should she ever rise from that
bed ?
But when they called her, she
sprang up hastily, dressed and went
down stiirs, and they were too busy
talking to notice that she diel not
know what she was tloing. But, by
aud by, when her brother reached
for some more coffee, and observed
"John Burrows and his mother went
to Xew York on the first train this
morning," she tried to rise uncon
cernedly from the table, and fell in
a dead faint on the carpet among
them.
When Xelly came to, she was un
dressed and in bed,. and Aunt Mary
was darning stockings at the foot
' "Oh, let me get up, Aunt Mary ! I
don't want to lie hre !"
"Xow, Nell, be reasonable ! You're
sick." .
"Oh, Aunt Mary, I m not."
"Nelly, if you will lie still to-day,
I'll let you have that old box of cu
riosities in my room to look over.
Will you?"
"I don't know."
Aunt Mary went for them. Nelly
shut her eyes and let the wave in
all its bitterness surge over her once ;
when Miss Goldiug came back,
bringing a box of old mahogany,
black and glossy with time.
' "There !" setting it on the bed.
With a wintry little . smile of
thanks, Nelly lifted the cover. The
old mahogany box contained strange
things. Pictures on wood and ivory,
illuminated manuscripts, webs of
strong lace, antique ornaments, an
cient embroideries, great packages
of old letters, scaled flasks ot unfa
miliar perfume, ancient brooches of
red gold, finger rings of clumsy-set
gems tied together with faded rib
bons, a knot of hair fasteneel togeth
er with a golden he?rt, the silver
hilt of a sword, and lastly, a tiny
octagon portrait of an old man, done
"Who is this that is m ugly, Aunt
Mary ?"
"That, thcvs.iv is my greatgrand
father, Nelly."
"What is it painted on this
queer stuff?"
"Well, it is a kind of leather, I be
lieve. They used to write on it in
old timc3."
"He is uncommonly ugly, isn't
he ?" swid Nelly, wearily.
As she spoke, the littlo case fell
apart in her hands. A yellow, fold
ed paper was revealed. She opened
it, and saw that it wa.s written ur
on. "Why, bles3 my soul, what have
you there?" exclaimed Mis:i Gold
ing, rising up in a strange alarm.
She snatched it from Nelly's
hand.
"It can't bo the will!" She cri
ed. Nelly looked on in dumb surprise.
Aunt Mary read a few words, then
rushed away in wild agitation to
the library where her brother was
sitting. Nelly could hear them talk-
j ing, the two ; then her brother came,
! then tho old house-keeper was call
ed from the dining room ; and so
much confused talking she never
heard before. By and by, they all
waited upon her in a body.
"Nelly," said her father, sitting
down upon the loot ot the bed, you
are an heiress."
"This is old Grandfather Goblin's
will 1" exclaimed Aunt Mary, nour
ishing the bit of paper.
"It seems that he was very eccen

remedies proved ineffectual. The
sick man, questioned as to the man
