What a pleasant night Ave had, and
how she played and sang to me,. and, 'said hoW

I when I kiised.her as It said. goodbye. It was
I the last, last time.. . .
' . 'Urea days after, a letter mite 'from Alice,
•fUll of the most romantic allusions 'to birds, of,
love and kindred hearts, mutual attachments
'and unknown passions; and smelling untommon
strong of•patchoeli; and ending with a request
that I would''meet her at Rugby the
.followfne
Monday,' at one o'clock, near the bottom of
-High 'Street,. where . she would walk with a'
sprig, of myrtle in her hand, and she.hopeel
would carry a thin stick. • • • '
Ido..not know: what evil 'spirit .iempted me,
but.l went to Rugby: "Just for the fun of 'the
thing," and I walked up, and down the "High
Street, expecting her for upwards of anhour.-- .
At length.rsaw a thin, fair,:grey4Yed girl
coming around..the corner, with a 'sprig of myr
tle. was very nich running away; but I
didn't. We neared each other,, and she Spoke,
end called me Leonard. ' •

"The - same, dear Leonard; how late yon are.
Here's 'my sister. *coining," And she intro
duced us and continued, I atn so fond. of you
already; are. not you, Emily? - . .
This appeal to her sister recalled tom) , mem
ory my engel.loVe; atoll stammered'out some-.
thing abOut nothing in earnesti . and it , being all
ajoke. Certainly she was qt - iite in - earnest ;
and did not mean it for a joke at all:: She knew
that marriages were made in heaven, and ours
was among the number. • ..•
. She never . thought—though have: often--:
how many marriage notices must have changed
'their envelopes in theant:pf . cprning
• be sure," and she simpered “dear, 'dear
Leonard, how glad momma will be to see. you.:
We live just round the corner.".
I Wished a :nighty . Chasm had opened then,its
