with a tender red; a moment more and he
had reached them.
“Oh, Alan!" came with a 'Sob from
Helen’s lips.
“Mv own Helen!” and in another
scoond she was clasped in the stranger's
embrace. .
• • • *
“Pardon me, Mr. Setou. Really, it is
quite impossible that you should refuse to
give this gentleman a heating."
The speaker was Mr. Gardner, the old
lawyer and friend already mentioned, and
ho tilladed to Alan Morton, who was sitting
iu Henry Seton’s drawing-room, waiting
till he should be listened to, with a look of
quiet resolution on his handsome face.
Helen was in the room too, standing tear
fully in the deep alcove of the window,
almost hidden by the curtains.
“Mr. Seton will, I think, hardly feel
justified in continuing to refuse his consent
to my marriage with his ward,” urged
Alan, addressing himself to the lawyer,
“when I mention that I bad her father’s
consent to the engagement. Nothing hut
the dangerous illness of n sister who resides
abroad would have kept me from hastening
to England on hearing of Miss Seton's
bereavement.”
“Circumstances are changed," put in
Henry, with considerable irritation of man
ner ; “I refuse my consent.”
“Hush, hush, my dear sir,’’ interposed
the lawyer, trying to keep the peace ; "let
us hear what Mr, Morton’s proposals are.
We lawyers, you know.” turning to Alan
with an attempt at a joke, “are obliged to
have an eye to pounds, shillings, and penee.
Have yon any objection to give me, as Mr.
Seton’s friend, some idea ot your means J”
"They are little enough, I own,” replied
Alan, frankly ; "hut it seems to me that,
under the circumstances, it is only for Miss
Setqn and me to decide whether they are
sufficient. If I had not been obliged to
leave England Mr. Seton would have al
lowed me to marry his daughter at once,
yet at that time it was thought, I know,
that she was likely to have a considerable
fortune.”
Alan Morten, as he said the last words,
happened to glance towards Henry Seton,
and noticed with surprise the blood mount
to his forehead.
"Yes, yes,” answered the lawyer, think
ing that by talking the matter over lie
should give Henry time to recover his tem
per, which had seemed to be on the point
of failing; “it was thought that Miss
Seton would be rich, but unfortunately
her father died without having made any
provision for her.”
A suspicion entered Alan Morton's head
that Henry Seton was concealing from him
the true state of Helen’s affairs, which Mr.
Gardner might not know, in order to in
duce him to resign her before she should be
of age to act for herself. Therefore he
pursued the subject.
“I understood,” he said, turning pointed
ly to the lawyer, yet keeping an eye on
Henry, "that there was some money likely
to come to Miss Seton by settlement. Can
you tell me what can have given rise to the
idea ?”
"It was a very natural idea,” replied
Mr. Gardner ; "indeed I believe that Mr.
Setou almost shared in it himself, for he
always had a fancy that he should survive
hie hrother. I can explain tho oirouni
stances to you in a moment. Mr. Seton, I
am sure you will have no objection to my
doingso ?”
He looked towards Henry, who muttered
very surlily, “Say what you please,” and
began nervously to put some paper together
on the writing-table.
“Well,” resumed the lawyer, "I need
not make a long story of it. The simple
fact is, that Miss Seton would have been
not only well off, but wealthy had her
father lived a few hours longer. He and
his brother, Captain Seton, died the same
day, but Miss Seton’s father died at eleven
in the morning, and Captain Seton not till
two in the afternoon; therefore, by a
singular provision of the will under which
they inherited, his son, as heir to the sur
vivor, succeeded to the property.”
What ailed Alan Morton ? Tho color
flashed into his face ; he rose and stood,
still addressing the lawyer, but with bis
face turned towards Henry.
“May I inquire," he asked, "on wiiat
day Captain and Mr. Seton died ? ”
Henry turned upon him in a frenzy of
ungovernable passion.
"Leave ray room, sir, instantly, if you
don’t wish to be kicked out of it. Good
heavens ! do yon think I am going to sub
mit to the insolence of a confounded med
dling scoundrel like you ?”
"Stay, sir, stay,” interposed tho lawyer,
laying his hand on Henry’s arm, and per
fectly aghast at this uncalled-for burst;
"there is no insolence in the case. Under
the circumstances there is no wonder that
Mr. Morton should wish to hear the par
ticulars. Mr. Seton died, sir, at eleven
o'clock in the morning of tho 15th of
October, and—”
“And I saw Captain Seton lying dead at
six in the morning of that same 15th.”
There was dead silence in the room.
The lawyer fixed his keen eyes on Henry,
whose face had turned a yellowish livid
white. Helen had stolen from her retreat
at the sound of her cousin’s angry voice,
and now stood hy the chair from which her
lover had just risen. Henry turned upon
her fiercely.
‘•How dared yon not to tell me this ?”
“Tell you what?” said Helen’s gentle
voice. "There was nothing to tell, for
Alan did not see my uncle alive ; besides I
could not speak to yon about his letters.”
Alan continued steadily : —“I arrived at
K on the morning of the 15th Octo
ber, in the course of a walking trip of two
or three days. I was just passing the inn,
when I heard my name called, and saw my
old school and college friend, Edward Wil
son, at a window. He was in n room on
the ground floor; and in the same room,
on a bed, was Captain Seton's body. Wil
son told me he had died at two in the
morning, and I saw him lying there with
my own eyes at six. I wanted lo remain
with Wilson, but he would not hear of it.
He persuaded me that be wanted no help,
and reproached himself with having allowed
me to risk infection by coming in. So I
left the way I had entered, without seeing
anyone but him. I saw his doath nfter
wards in the paper, and regretted bitterly
that I had not stayed with hitn ; but ns to
the tirno of Captain Seton's death there is
not the slightest doubt about it.”
Another dead silence ; Helen’s soft tones
broko it. “There must bo some mistake,”
she said approaching her cousin with her
old gentle manner, all anger having given
way to pity nt the sight of his ghastly face.
"Henry—Oh. Henry, aroyon ill ?’’
“Miss Seton, you had better lcavo us for
tho present,” said tho old lawyer, sternly.
"I fear there is room for some painful sub-
AUGUSTA, GA, SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 8, 1868.
pioions regarding Mr. Seton’s conduct.
At any rate, the matter mutt be investi
gated. I shall start for K myself to
morrow. to make the necessary inquiries.”
A kind of gurgle startled them. Hepry
was standing with his two hands" pressed
against his brow as if to keep his senses.
He strove to speak, but something seemed
to choke him, and his words were hardly
articulate; yet ho forced them out anil
they stood still to listen.
“There is no need ; it is true ! I altered
the letter. Not for the fortuno; it was to
win Helen, but—oh, my God! What is
this?”
Ho staggered, and his eyes closed.
Helen turned white; the lawyer and Alan
Morton sprang forward, but before they
were able to reach him, Henry Seton had
fallen to the ground at their feet, stricken
with paralysis.
* • • •
The sequel is soon told. Helen is happy.
She and Alan Morton have sold the old
family plaoe, where the change of owner
ship must liavo been known and comment
ed upon, and have settled in a distant part
of England, within easy reach, but out ot
sight, of the sea. Two tiny children play
round their fire-side ; besides these, their
home has another occupant. Whose casy
chair is that drawn up in winter to the
warmest nook by the hearth? Who is the
invalid, a young man still, but with wasted
limbs and drawn features, who on summer
days can just crawl down the terrace steps
and sit basking in sunny spots ? He
brings a book sometimes, hut his mind is
weak, and he likes best to play with the
children, and, tell them long rambling
stories, which are their chief delight. But
when they read him stories in return, they
notice that if there is any mention of a
lonely pool or pond, their playfellow's face
changes; it seems to strike a paiiiful chord
in his memory; lie grows gloomy and sends
them away. They have learnt to pass
over such passages in their little books.
See! there comes Helen and her hus
band ; how handsome ho is! and how
lovingly she leans upon his arm, and looks
up at him with her soft, trusting eyes.
They join the invalid, and Alan makes him
lean on him. while Helen walks on the
other side. He brightens up a little and
ilmnks'them and they speak cheerily to him,
but he soou relapses into melancholy.
Thus it has boon for years ; thus it will be
to the end of the life of this wreck of what
once was the calm, keen, clear-sighted
Henry Seton.
PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
PAIN KILLER.
WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL TIIE ATTEN
TION of tho public to this long tested and
unrivalled
FAMILY MEDICINE.
The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable
compound ; and while it is a most officiant Rem
edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, evon
in the most unskillful hands, for
SUMMER COMPPAINT,
or any other form of Bowel Disease in children
or adults. It is an almost certain cure, and has,
without doubt, been more successful in curing
the various kinds of
CHOLERA
tban any other known remedy, or even the most
skillful physician. In India, Africa and China,
where this dreadful disease is over more or less
prevalent, the
PAIN KILLER
is considered by the natives, as well as European
residents in those climates,
A SURE REMEDY.
Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it is unrivalled.
A few doses will relieve-severo cases of
INDIGESTION,
and it is often a perfect cure for
DYSPEPSIA
in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and
stimulating properties, arousing the system to
vigorous action, render it a most effectual
cure for
COLDS AND COUGHS,
whon used according to directions.
For external application, it is unsurpassed by
any medical preparation known.
RHEUMATISM
and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved
and often cured by it. Any soreness in tho
Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its applica
tion. It cures instantly the most violent
TOOTHACHE.
It should always bo kept noar at hand, to be
used in cases of severe
BURNS OR SCALDS.
If applied iuimediately, according to directions,
it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering.
It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of
SEAMEN,
and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel
should sail without a supply of it. One captain
writes us:
“I have made several voyages—often with
emigrants—and though I keep a good medicine
chest, and have several times had a good doal of
sickness on board, I have found the Pain Killer so
efficient in all cases as to entirely preclude the
use of all other medicines.”
One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the
sales have constantly increased, and wholly
upon its own merits. The effect of the Pain
Killer upon the patient, when taken internally
in cases of Colds, Congh, Bowel Complaints,
Cholera, Dysentery, and other affections of the
systmn, has been truly wonderful, and has won
for Tt a name among the medical preparations
that can never ho forgotten. Its success in re
moving Pain, as an external romedy, in eases of
Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Sting of
Insects, and other causos of suffering, has se
cured for it such a host of testimony, as an
almost infallible remedy, that it will bo handed
down to posterity as ono of the greatest medical
discoveries of the nineteenth century. The
magical effects of the Pain Killer, when taken
or used according to directions, are certain.
You have only to be suro that you buy tho
genuine articio and adhere to the directions in
its use, and you will admit its wonderful medi
cinal properties.
The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now
put up in pannel bottles with the words Davis
Vegetable Pain Killer blown in tho glass ; and
with two 6teel engraved labels on each bottle—
ono an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the
original inventor of tho modicine, tho othor a
steel engraved note of hand—nono others can be
relied upon as genuine.
The Pain Killer is sold by Druggists and
Grocers. PERRY DAVIS A SON,
