FAREWELL
farewell: God speed thee on thy way
Across the waste of waters blue;
From dangers guard thee night and day.
And keep thee gentle, kind and true.
Farewell! Though weary leagues apart,
On foreign land or alien sea.
We'll draw together heart to heart
In closest bonds of sympathy.
God keep thee in his tender care
Where'er on earth thy footsteps roam.
And under skies serene and fair
Return the wanderer to his home.
—Philadelphia Telephone.
THE UNLUCKY STONE.
From my earliest recollection we had
traveled, traveled the world over, it
seemed, my mother and L We had no
kith nor kin but one another, so can the
world wonder that we were all in all to
each other? My mother’s face, although
the sweetest and gentlest of faces, was
always sad. even gloomy at times. She
always wore the deepest of mourning
for my father, although I could never
get her to mention him. And after sev
eral inquiries I ceased to trouble her, for
such a look of pain and agony would
come over the dear features at the men
tion of Robert Radcliff. The only jew
elry she ever wore consisted of- two
rings, a plain gold wedding ring and a
beautiful opal set in a heavy band of
gold. Through Asia, Europe, America,
and even to Africa and Australia, we
had made our way. And whenever in a
crowd or conversing with a stranger I
would notice my mother looking at her
opal ring, which she wore on the third
finger of the right hand.
One summer we had wandered through
Russia, had spent some time on the
Rhine, and finally brought up in a little
town among the mountains of Switzer
land- Here my mother was taken ill
with a general decline of the heart, as
the village doctor called it. I was very
much frightened and wanted to tele
graph for a celebrated man from Paris,
but she said: “No. Carl, do nothing
■whatsoever. My time has come, and I
must have you to myself for the few
hours left me.”
i would not believe it It did not
seem possible that God could take her
from me.
“Mother,” I said, controlling my emo
tions for fear of making her worse,
“yon imagine that you are much worse
than you are. You are looking better
than I have seen you for some time.
Your cheeks are bright red."
Ah, what a fool I was! Death’s very
sign I took to be the hue of returning
health.
“Carl, I have no time to waste in use
less ■words,” she said. “Come and sit by
my side and learn why your mother’s
sad face has darkened your young life.
No, do not interrupt, my boy. I know
how much you think of your mother.
Sixteen years ago, when you were a
child of 4. we lived in a beautiful coun
try home in the north of Ireland. Your
father was of that country, you know.”
1 did not know, for she had never told
me anything about him; but 1 did not
interrupt, and she continued: “Well,
one night 1 waited and waited for Robert
to return. He had gone to the neighbor
ing village to buy new carriage horses.
The wind blew a gale, and the raiu fell
in torrents. 1 walked the floor in an
agony of fear till 12 o’clock, then called
a faithful old servant and told him to
harness and to go with me to look for
his master. He thought me crazy, but
did as 1 told him. Put another pillow
under my head, Carl. There, now I can
breathe easier.
“We found him, my son: found him
all bloody and beaten to death. Foully
murdered.”
tier face was ghastly, and although
shaking in every limb 1 managdU to give
her some drops the doctor had left so
that she was able to continue. “I can
not tell you more of that dreadful time
except that there never was the slight
est clew to the assassin. We never knew
that he had an enemy in the world. It
was not robbery, for his watch and a
large amount of money were not touched.
You will find papers telling you all of
that. My part is what 1 wish to tell
you now. I lived with you alone in
the old home for one year. One night 1
fell asleep in a chair by the hearth, and
had the strangest of dreams. 1 dreamt
a voice said to me:
“ ‘Take thy child and the opal ring
and travel the world over, and when
thou dost find thy opal turnest a blood
red then thou willst be in the presence
of thine enemy and thine husband’s
murderer.
“When I awoke I pondered on it for a
while, but came to the conclusion that it
was the result of a fevered brain. The
next night I had the same dream, and
again the next. I then took it as my
mission in life to find the man who had
foully killed my Robert. 1 awoke from
my apathy, sold the place, and taking
yon with me started on my pilgrimage.
You Lnow the result. Nevei' has my
nng changed color. Now, Carl. I am
dying, and into your hands I consign
this ring, and I ask you by the memory
of your murdered father to find the per
son and bring bis crime home to him.”
Saying this she placed the opal, with
its tine red lines, upon my finger, and
then lay back exhausted.
“i promise, mother, never to give up
the search while there is breath in my
body.” 1 said, intending to find the as
sassin by modern means instead of super
stitious. but 1 would not pain her by
doubting her dream.
Three days she lingered, during which
time she told me of her financial stand
ing, and that she did not know of a rela
tive in the world. The third night she
passed away, leaving me alone in the
world with a terrible void iu my life
and an unutterable grief. 1 saw her
buried in the little Swiss burial ground,
and then returned to the inn and looked
my future in the face. I had £50,000,
no friends and a veritable vendetta. A
week later I started for Paris, stated my
trouble, and had the best detectives to
work up a hopeless case. In London I
did the same, and then crossed the ocean
and followed the same course in New
York. The opal ring I wore, bnt seldom
looked at it. I made several pleasant
traveling acquaintances, and had a num
ber of invitations to visit in Washing
ton, Baltimore and other cities in the
States. 1 refused them all, and went
west to San Francisco, staying there un
til Jan. 1, when I returned to Washing
ton, where I ran across one of my trav
eling friends, Ray Carrington.
I refused nil overtures to go into so
ciety or to visit Carrington, but when 1
was taken ill and-threatened with pneu
monia my friend had me removed,
against my wishes, to his home, where
a tall, stately lady smiled graciously
upon me, and where 1 had all the care
and devotion possible during a serious
illness. This lady, who was Ray’s
mother, was an angel of mercy to me, a
homeless wanderer. One day 1 was ly
ing on the sofa deluged with shawls,
wraps, etc., reading my correspondence
from the foreign police offices. Nothing
had really been done, although a man
had been sent to Ireland. So many
years had passed they could hold out lit
tle hope to me.
A rap at the door, and “May 1 come
in?” from Ray.
“Of course.” I replied. “Why do you
ask?”
“Because I have brought you a visi
tor,” he said, as he entered with his arm
around a beautiful young girl, whom he
introduced as his sister Lilian.
I told her she was very kind to visit
an invalid, and wondered what they
would think if they knew I was hunting
down a murderer of sixteen years ago.
Many happy days passed in spite of ill
ness and vendettas. They insisted upon
keeping me for a ball in honor of Lilian’s
twentieth birthday. I found resistance
useless, so yielded with as good grace as
possible, although I knew such gayeties
were not for me, and my mother’s death
was too recent not to destroy any desire
for such pleasures.
However I staid, and on the evening
of the ball arrayed myself in my dress
suit and descended to the ballroom,
which was beautifully decorated with
• tropical plants and lovely ferns. Lilian
was receiving her guests by her mother’s
side. She was dressed in a gown of sil
very fabric, which made her look more
than ever like the beautiful fairy she
was. 1 easily mingled unnoticed in the
crowd.
As I gazed on that brilliant scene I
wondered what the dear mother was
thinking a3 she locked down from her
home on* high. I thought of the little
grave in the far away country, of the
vendetta left me as a legacy. Ray broke
in upon my meditations, and finding it
impossible to persuade me to dance said:
“Well, do take Miss Van Dyke into sup
per and relieve me.”
1 complied, and upon entering the
supper room removed one glove, as my
hand was warm. Upon doing so I
glanced at the opal ring, and to ray hor
ror noticed that it had become a blood
red. What could it mean? 1 glanced
around the room and noticed only a doz
en people, but these brilliant society
people of Washington. What had they
to do with my opal turning red? I must
be mistaken. No: it was a deep blood
red. I noticed Ray’s uncle among the ,
crowd—a tall, dark man, conversing
with a lady; and I mechanically watched
him leave the room, then glanced at my
ring and, great heavens! my blood seem
ed turning to ice, for the ring had re
sumed .its original color. I escorted
Miss Van Dyke back to the ballroom
and delivered her to a partner. Then 1
sought an introduction to Ray’s uncle.
“Mr. Radcliff,” he exclaimed,'and 1 saw
him start, “where was your home, if 1
may ask?” “In the north of Ireland,” 1
replied, “and my father was Robert
Radcliff.” 1 noticed my ring had again
become red, which fact dispelled all
doubt from my mind. Notwithstanding
how ridiculous it seemed, I continued.
“Mr. Carrington, 1 would like a few
words with you privately.”
“Not to-night,” he stammered, “but
to-morrow at 10 a. m.” “Very well," 1
replied, and then sought the smoking
room to be able to think. Lilian's uncle.
She to whom my heart had gone out was
the niece of the murderer of my father,
for l had faith that 1 had found the man.
I retired that night to get little or no
sleep, to wonder what I should say and
do to Howard Carrington, and what mo
tive he could have had for such a deed.
The next morning I called at his resi
dence promptly at 10 o’clock, and was
told that the gentleman was not yet up.
had not answered when he was called,
and must be very tired. A horrible sus
picion came over me, and 1 told the man
to come with me, for we must break in
the door.
We easily did so, and there, with his
head on his arm, leaning on his desk,
was Carrington. Then to our horror we
saw a stream of blood on the floor and a
revolver near it. We went to him and
found him dead. The bullet had done
its deadly work. On the desk lay an en
velope addressed to Carl R. Radcliff. 1
opened it and read:
"Mi. Radcliff—You have tracked me
at last. How I cannot imagine, for 1
never supposed there was a single clew.
Now I know my time has come. I am
tired of being hounded by remorse, and
should have made way with myself be
fore long anyway. I killed your father
nearly seventeen years ago in Ireland. I
had fallen passionately in love with your
mother long before she knew of your fa
lser. She rejected me with scorn be
cause I drank. When she mamed Rad
cliff I was wild with jealousy. Still I
never should have done him harm if it
hadn’t been for meeting him that dark
night all alone. 1 was mad with drink,
and the deed was done before I realized
the crime. I have never since touched a
drop of liquor. No one suspected Mr.
Carrington, the tourist, of such a deed,
and after some time I came here to my
friends. Now you know all—H. 0.”
I never told my friends of this letter
or of the crime. They thought it tem
porary insanity. I now felt free to offer
myself to Lilian, and to my joy and as
tonishment was accepted. Eighteen
months from the time of her uncle’s
death Lilian became my wife. I have
always worn the opal ring, which has
never changed its color since it showed
me my father’s murderer.—L. M. A. in
