The family was nothing more to hitu
than merely the friends of the Bulk-ns—

younger one, a college churn, was to
marry his sister. So very slight was
this bond of union, that Roland lay
awake full two hours, wood.-ring why
his mind should be so engaged with
Adelaide Munthrope’s affair, and why
lie should lie awake considering them.

ai.-J its there were no grounds fur ob
jection, contradiction or dispita, the
matter was acquiesced in for six whole
months. At the end of that time ne
word had come from Ade’aidc to rela
tives or acquaintance?, and gossip shook
her head, while rumor let all her tongues
loose at once. This was the situation
when Roland went up from New York
to the Grange ou a Saturday afternoon
in January. 1G73, and heard the theo
ries and queries called up by the very
singular aspect of Miss Munthropc s
case.
It was 11 o’clock when Roland retir
ed, he heard the clock strike one, as
lie tried, for the fiftieth time, to dis
charge Ins mind of the gossip’s stuff,
and then sat bolt upright in bed.
“Luck is against me, or I have eat
en too much dinner,” said he to himself,

fire in the grate, or that the ghost-voic

Munthropc girl—oh 1 dash her and

the thermometer below zero and the

Company ”
He prepared for his venture with
that pause, lacking eouiage, that any
warm
uiolnnd, experiences before baring his
devoted legs to the
“ iev fane.

greeting.
‘-la that you, Bob ? Hurry up ; you
move as slow as a spook.”
No reply was vouchsafed him, and
the footfall was quite noiseless on the
heavy pile o’ carpet. Roland strained
his eyes and presently saw in the edge
of the moonlight, the bottom folds of a
woman's black dress, a wite underskirt,
and light-colored shoe or slipper.
The idea of its being a ghost never
entered his head ; he thought ihe visi-
tor a somnambulist, and having heard
of the danger of suddenly awakening
one so csmcumstanced, he held his
ptaeo. The vroma , moved slowly into
the full moonlight, atood looking toward
the window, then faced about, present

Roland, wh) recognized his visitor at
once as Adelaide Munthropc.

sprang from the bed with perspiration

He lit his lamp, drew on his draw

ing meanwhile that there was something
queer about Adelaide Muuthropes
pres-nee in the Grange while the own
ers and occupants seamed so worried
atid desirous as to her whereabouts
Hastily dressed, he took the lamp and
walked to the door. It was looked hard
and fast ; even a chair, which he hud
moved when he had entered his room,
stood in such position that the door
could not have been opened without
striking and pushing it. Roland gave
a low whistle, stuck his knuckles into
his eyes and muttered :
“Pshaw ! what an ass I am. But it
was the most realitic vision 1 ever ex
perienced. It reminds ins of ui3iiy
psychological oddities I have read of.

So satisfied was he that it was all a

“And I too. If there is a maiden to

“By all means. How can we get

“I know the conductor of the freight

and we can get down on that by 6
o’clock.”
‘■Good. I can get the necessary let

Doctor Gurling was delighted to
meet Messrs. Builen and M itched. The
honor, etc., not to mention the oppor
tunity to oblige the gentlemen from
whom they bore letters, and what e-nW
he do fur them. This superintendent
was one --i 1 hose snioi.th-faeed. pi.msitde,

Roland saw at a glance that if there
was ffu! play anywhere ’he wuulci not
get much aid from Dr. Gurling to clear
it up. He abandoned the straight har
vard tactics he first resolved on, and
asked quietly :
“Have you any objection to showing
us over your much admired and widely
celebrated institution ?”
“Not at all,” replied the superinten
dent. “What particular feature are you
most interested in ?” The question also
conveyed the sentiment: “If you are
browsing around here to fin 1 anything
more than I want you to know, you
might as well bundle out at once ”
“No “articular department,” replied
Roland, “we simply desire to look
through the asylum.”
“Very w**!l. gentlemen, this way.”

died, in spite of good food and con
siderate treatment. The keeper could
not get her out, nor devise a way to’do it,
but lie could give low a letter and bring a
sort of an answer.
“And I’ll pay postage one thousand
dollars a letter,” said Roland, “and if you
are connected with the affair and lose
your place, I'll make it five hundred a
year as long as you live, if the lady is
released.”
‘.‘Make it sure,” said tl>c keepr, “and
I’m yours truly.”
Four days afterwards the man received
from Roland all the assurance that legal
document-; and crisp cash can convey,
and received a reply to the letter he had
sent Adelaide, in which lie advised ner to
make a formal complaint of her immure
incut and those party to it. Adelaide’s
letter was simply a piece of brown paper,
full of pin holes. To have been detected
waiting would have upset everything, but
the shrewdest guard at the asylum saw
nothing supicious in a patient sitting by
the grated window of tlie ward, apparent
ly pricking in a scrap of paper-
“Thank God for one ray of hope!” the
answer read. “I, Adelaide Munthropc,
appeal to all who have any idea of the
rror of confinement, save among the
of hope and rel.ef, but was unable to ac
count for its inspiration, and was uot sur
prised when the keeper of the ward in
which she was, so slyly handed her
Roland's letter, and suggested the manner
of reply, so that it must he classed with

Armed with this missive, the two
friends sped away- to New Tork anil laid
the case before one of the judges in
Chambers, and easily procured a writ of
Ini',cat corpus and a detail of two clever
detectives to serve it. They also swore
out a warrant for illegal detention, to pre
vent Doctor Gur ing from playing any
little game to defeat their search aud suc
cess .
One Wednesday morning ihe smooth
doctor was surprised at another visit from
Roland and his party. In reply to the
doctor’s “What gave him the honor,” etc.
etc., Roland said:
“We have come for Miss Adelaide Mun
thrope, and to make matters brief, allow
me to introduce these gentlemen, officers
of the court in New York, provided with
a writ for her custody.”
Dr. Guiling reflected a moment and
said:
“Well gentlemen, I suppose I must sub
mit. I will give you no trouble, and ex
plain the whole reason of her detention
on the understanding that I am not to be
molested, or the affair get wind to the in
jury of the institution.”
‘We can make no such bargain,” re-
p'ied Roland, .“except with the consent
of Miss Munthropc.”
At the doctor’s orders Adelaide was
brought to the parlor, and, after con.-ul-
tatiou, she agreed to the doctor’s terms,
and that worthy unfolded the following
villianous plot:
