To some ex- tent, however, he supplied its place by wine, of which he drank several glasses. Then, drawn by a strange fascination ho wen-t back into the little study, and remembering the will, bethought him- self thnt it might be as well to secure it. In taking it off the table, however, a folded and much erased sheet of man- uscript was disclosed. Recognizing Bellamy’s wrilting, he took it up and commenced to read the draft, for it was nothing else. Its substance was as follows: The document began by stating that the testator’s former will was declared null and void on amount of Lhe"treachâ€" erous and dishonorable conduct of his son, Philip." It then, in brief, but sweeping terms bequeathed and devis- ed to trustees, of Whom Philip was not one, the unentailed property and per- sonality to be held by them: firstly. for tlhe benefit of any son that might be born to the said disinherited Philip by his wife Hildaâ€"the question of daughtâ€" ers, being, probably by accident, passed over in silenceâ€"and: failing such issue. than to the testator's nephew, George Caresfoot. absolutely,i subject, howev- er to the following curious condition: Should the said George Caresfoot, either by deed of. gift or will, attempt to creâ€" conivey the estate to his cousin Philip, or to descendants of the said Philip, then the gift over to the said George was to be of no effect, and the whole was to pass to some distant cousins of the testator's Who lived in Scot- land. Then followed several legacies and one charge on the estate to the. . ,bitter humiliation and selfâ€"reproach extent of £1,000 a year payable to the separate use of the aforesaid Hilda Caresfoot for life, and reverting at death to the holder of the estate. In plain English Philip was, unlert this draft. totally disiniherited, first in favor of his own male issue, by his wife Hilda, all mention of daughters being omitted, and failing such issue, in fav- or of his hated cousin Geoxge. who, as though to add insult to injury was pro- hibited from willing .the property back either to himself or his descendants by whom the testator had probably undâ€" erstood the children of a second mar- ridge. Philip read the document, over twice carefully. "lihexvl” he said, “that was touch and go. 'l'hank Heaven he had no time to carry out his kind intentions.” ~But presedntly a terible thought struck him. He ran-g the bull liasth. It was answered by the footinzin, who, since. he had an hour before uolped to carry the poor master upâ€"siairs, had become quite demoralized. It was some time before Philip could get an answer to his question as to whether or no any one had been with his father that day while he was out. At last he suc- ceeded in extracting a reply from the man that nobody had been except the young lady-â€""leastways, he begged par- don. Mrs. Caresfout, as he was told she was." "Never mind her," said Philip, feeling as though a load haj been taken from his breast, “you are sure nobody else has been 2" "No, sir, nobody, leastways he beg- ged pardon, nobody except Lawyer Bel- lamy and his clerk, who had been there all the afternoon writing, with a black bag, and had sent for Simmons to be witnessed.” “You can go," said Philip, in aquieb voice. the saw it all now, he had let the old man die after he had executed the fresh will disinheriting him. He hal let him die; he had effectually and beyond redemption cut Ihis own throat. Dcubtless, too, Bellamy had taken the new will With him; there was no chance of this being able to destroy it. _ By degrees, however, his fit of broodâ€" ing‘gavewvny to one of sullen fury against his wife, himself, but most of all against his dead father.

But when he came. face to face .v.w_th that dread Presence his passion died, and a_c-old sense of the awful quiet and‘om- ni‘potence' of death came upon him and chdled him into fear. in some indis- tinct way he, realized how impotent is thew-hating of the waters of Mortality against the iron-bound coasts of Death. '10 what purpose did he rail against} that solemn, quiet thing, that husk and mask of life which lay in unmoved mockery of his reviling? His father was dead. and he, even .he, had killed his father. {He was his father's murderer. And then a terror of the reckoning that must one day be struck between that dead man's spirit and his own took possession of him and a foreknowledge of the awful shadow under which he must hence- forth lie crept into his mind and froze ‘ the very marrow in his bones. He looked again at. the face, and, to his excited imagination. it appeared to have assumed a sardonic smile. The curse ofCain fell upon him as he looked, and weighed him dOWn; his hair rose, and the cold sweat poured from his forehead. At length he could bear it no longer. but ‘turning, fled out of the room and out of the house far into the night. - When haggard with mental and bodi- ly exhaustion, he at length returned, lit was after midnight. He foundk Dr. Coley wanting for him; he had just ’and perhaps it is as well. come from the sickroom and wore an anxious look upon his face. "Your wife has been delivered of a fine girl," he said; “but I am bounds to tell you that her condition is far from satisfactory. The case is a most com- plicated and dangerous one." "A girl I" groaned Philip, mindful of the will. “Are your sure. that it is a girl?" "Of course I am sure." doctor testify. "And Hilda illâ€"I don't. understand.” "Look here, my good fellow, you are upset; take, a glass of brandy and go to bed. Your wife does not. wish to see you now. but, if necessary, I will send; for you. Now, do as I tell you. or you will be down next. Your nerves are seriously sha’kem." Philip did as he was bid, and. as soon as ho had seen him off to his :room, a nswcred the ‘the doctor returned up-stairs. In the early morning he sent fon two of his brother practitioners. and they held a consultation the upshot of which was that‘they had come to the con- clusion that nothingg short of a mir- acle could save Hilda’s lifeâ€"a concluâ€" sion that she herself had arrived at some hours before. ":Doctor." she said, "I trust you to let me know when the end is neat]. I wish my husband to be present when I dlie, but‘ not before," "Hush, my childâ€"never talk of dy- ing yet. Please God. you have many years of life before you." She shook her golden head a little sadly. “No, doctor, my sand has run out, . Give me\ the childâ€"why do you keep the child away from me? It is the messenger sent to call me to a happier world. Yes. she is an angel messenger. 1\Vhen I am gone see thatyou call her‘Angela,‘ so thatl may know by what name to greet her when the time comes.” {During the course of the morning she expressed a strong desire to see Maria Lee, who was accordingly sent sent for. It will be remembered that old Mr. ‘Caresfoot had on the. previous day, im- mediately after Hilda had left him. sat down and written to Maria ln this note he told her the whole shameâ€" ful truth, ending with a few words of that such a thing should have befallen her at the hands of one bearing his name.

As was but natural. notwithstanding old Mr. C'az‘esfoot’s brief vindication of Hilda’s conduct in his letter. Maria was filled With indignation at what to her- selft she called her treachery and deâ€" I‘QI . \\ hile she was yet full of these thoughts a messenger came galloping over from Bratham Abbey. bringing a note from Dr. (any that told her of her old friend's sudden death. and of Hilda’s dangerous condition and her de- sire. to see hcr.

Their reconciliation was as complete as her friend's tuning voice and strength would allow. At length. she tore her- self away, and, turning at the door, took her last look at Hulda, who hail raised herself upon .her elbow, and was gazing at her retreating form with an earnestness that was vcry (touching. the eyes, Maria felt, were taking their fill of. what they looked upon for the last time in this world. (latching her tearlul gaze, the dying woman smiled, and lilting her hand pointed upward. lhus they parted. But Alarm could control herself no longer; her own blasted prospects, the loss of the man she loved, and.- the affec- tung scene through which she had just passed, all helped to break her down. Running down stairs into the dining- room, she threw herself on a. sofa, and gave full passageto her grief. l’re- sently she became aware that she was not alone. Philip stood before her, or rather thewreck of him whom she knew as l‘_IlLllp. indeed it was hard to recognize in this scared man, with dis- heveled hair, white and trembling lips, and eyes ringed round with black. the bold, handsome youth, whom she I had loved. 'l he Sight of him stayed her sorâ€" row, and a sense- of her bitter injuries rushed in upon ther. "What do you want with me ’6" she asked. "Want. 1 want forgiveness. 1 am crushed. Maria, crushedâ€"quite crush- ed," and he put his hands to his face and sobbeld. She answered him with the quiet. dig- ‘ nity that good women can command in moments “of emergencyâ€"dignity of a. very different stamp from Hilda‘s. haughty pride, but perhaps as impres-l stve in its way. "You ask forgiveness of me, and say that you are crushed.

After waiting athle, she went on: “I am an insignificant creature. 1 know, and perhaps the mite of my hapâ€" piness or misery makes little difference in the scale of things; but in me the gift of all my love was evcrything. l gavn it to you.

Here she broke down la little, and then cont'nued: "it may seem curious, but though my love has been so mistakenly given; though you to whom it was given have t1"£lil so ill with it, yet am [anxious that on my side. there should be. [no bitter memâ€" ory that, in looking back at all this in after years, you should nevu be able to dwell upon any harsh or unkind word of mine.

He flung himself upon his knees be.- fore her and tried to take her hand. "You do not. know how you have hum- bled me,” he. groaned. She gazed at him with pity. "I am sorry," she said; "I did not wish to humble you. .I have one word more to say, and then l. must go. I have just. bid my last earthly farewell toâ€"your wife.

Philip, Philip, Philip, whom I chose to love out of all the world, I pray God that He will take me or deaden the edge of what I suffer, and that He may never let. my feet .cross your path or my eyes Ifall upon- your face again.” i In another second she. had passed out lof the room and out of his life. That night. or rather just before, dawn on the following morning, Hilda, knowing that her end was very n‘ar sent for her husband. I "Go quickly, doctor," she said. “I shall die at! dawn." 'I‘he doc-tor found him seated in the. l1slaine spot where Maria Lee hart left I Lm. lowed him. . A sad Sight awaited him. The mom- ent. of the gray dawn was drawing wear, and by his wife’s request, awinâ€" dow had been unshuttcrcd that her dimmed eyes might once more look up- on the light. On the great bed in the cent-er of the room lay Hilda who-w. life was now quickly draining from her. and by her side was placed the. sleepâ€" ing infant. She was raised and supâ€" ported on either side by pillows. and her unbound golden hair fell around her shoulders, inclosing her face as in a frame. .Her pallid countenance seein- lshadows that lay beyond. ‘ \Vhen Philip came the clergyman .C-eased praying. and drew back into the lfurther part of the room, as did Pigott aland the nurse, the former taking the :baby wtih her. ‘ Hiildu motioned to him to come close lto her. He came and bent over and 'kissed her, and she, with an effort. threw one. iwory arm around his net-k and smiled sweetly. After about a min- ‘ute. during which she. was apparently , "What. more misery l" the said, when he had told thS errand. "I cannot bear it. There is a curse upon roeâ€"death and wickedness, misery and death!" “You must. come if you Wish to see. lyour wife alive.” ‘ "1 will come," amt he rose and folâ€" ed touched with, an awful beauty that had not belonged to it in life. while in her eyes was that dread and pres-iâ€" e‘nt gaze which sometimes come to those who are about to solve death's mystery. By the side of the bed knelt Mr. Fraser, the clergyman of the. parish, re- pealing in an earnest tone the prayers ifor the dying, while the sad faced atâ€" Itendants moved with muffled tread ,llac-kward and forward from the ring lof light around. the bed into the dark collecting her thoughts, she spoke in a “low voice, and in her native ti ngue.' i. “I have not sent for you before, l’hllj tip, for two reasonsâ€"first, bemused §w15hed to spare you palm and next. in iorder that I might have time form my mind of angry thoughts against iYou.

The dying woman placed her hand upon its tiny head. and, turning her eyes upward. with the rapt expression of one who sees a vision, said: “ May the power of God be about you to protect you. my motherless babe; may angels guard you and make you as they are; and may the heavy curse and everlasting doom of the Al faltl upon these who would bring evr upon you I” husband.

Here it was that they brought Hilda and the ollrl squire, and laid them side by sidle against the coffin of yeoman Caresfoot, whose fancy it. had been to be buried in stone. and then, piling primrose-s. and blackthorn blooms up- on their graves, left them to their chilly sleep.

They keep their virtue for those who are impoverished. or for their unfortunate relations. But. for Philip it was felt that there was no excuse and no forgiveness; both his character and his money. and must therefore be cut. and from that day forward he was cut accordingly. As for Philip himself. he was fortunâ€" ately, as yet. ignorant of the kind in- tentions of his friends and neighbors, who had been so fond of him a week ago. He had enough upon his shoulâ€" fl-ers without thatâ€"for he had spoken no lie when he told Maria Lee. that he was crushed by the dreadful and reâ€" peated blows that had fallen upon him. blows that: had robbed him of every- thing that had made life worth living. and given him in return nothing but an infant who could not inherit, and who was therefore only an incumb- runl‘e. Who is it that says, “ After all .let a. bad man take what pains he may to nush it down. a human soul is an aw- ful. ghostly, unique possession for a bad main to have?" During the time that had elapsed between the death and burial of his father and wife. Philip had become thoroughly acquainted with thle. truth of this remark.
