CHAPTER XIIL
Salome’s history.
Along the quiet, lampless highroad which
lies between the village of Marsh Gieeuand
Thorrell Moor Paul Meredith and Salome
Barringham were slowly walking one even
ing, several days after the occurrence of the
incidents related in the last chapter. The
air was clear and frosty, and the soft radi
ance of a full moon which Bailed low tn the
southern heavens flooded the lane and fields
and the quiet countryside. During the
afternoon there had been a heavy snowfall
and all about the wandering lovers was
stretched an apparently unending wilder
ness of spotless white.
The sweethearts paid no heed to the sharp
ness of the night air, for their love tilled
them with a generous, health-giving, pleas
urable heat. Paul was wrapped up,in a
heavy great ooat and muffler, while Salome
was not less warmly clad in a big coat of
sealskin presented to her by her rich wooer
that very morning. And so, oomfortably
garbed and happy, they sauntered along the
almost deserted highroad, their feet sinking
with a crisp sound into the frozen snow, and
their low voices rising and falling on the
biting, light filled atr. Paul was speaking,
and any one who might have overheard him
could have told that his breast was flooded
with the gladness of a satisfied and con
quering lover. Said he:
“You will leave your present home, Ba
lome, dear one, at the end of this week, and
live for the future with Mr. Mallison and
his sister at the vloarage. I have made all
the necessary arrangements for the change,
and the vtoar will oall on you to-morrow to
tell you all about what he and Miss Mallison
propose,to do for you while lam away.”
"You mean to go away theu, Paul?” Sa
lome asked, her gloved band tightening on
her lover’s arm, and her sweet, pure white
faoe upturned to nis for a moment.
“Yes, dear. It will be better for me to
go away, I think. If I were to stay here,
near you, 1 should be pestering you every
day to marry me. I promised the vicar to
go away for a year or so, and leave you en
tirely in his oaro—l promised the same thing
to Sir Sydney and Lady Carsiand—and I
will do so.”
“1 am glad you have quite made up your
mind, Paul,” she said, lowly. “Not glad
because lam losing sight of you, but be
cause I want to test your love thoroughly. I
should never forgive myself—l oouidi not
be really and truly happy if 1 thought, or
could make myself think that you had nur
ried me, in haste, dear, only to repent at
your leisure, afterward.”
“Nonsense! ”he cried. “You know that
would be impossible in our oaso. I love
you, darling with an affection that will
last as long as I live. Just as I never loved
any woman before I knew you, so 1 feel
that I shall never care for another. Still,
for all that, I don’t mean to try a id evade
my promise. As soon as you are settled
comfortably with the parson, i shall go
away from here for a year or more.”
“Have you made up your mind where
you are going, Paul*” she inquired, with a
little quiver in her tones. “I dare say you
will not go far away to a place where we
cannot write to each other;”
“I shall go to South America, Salome,”
he replied. “Some of my friends are get
ting up a sort of shooting party, and I have
been asked to go with them, and have ac
cepted the invitation. We should start in
a fortnight.”
"South America is a very wild and
dangerous, oouutry, Isn’t it dear?” she
asked with tremulous voioe. “Ido hope,
Paul, that you will not run into any dan
ger."
“O, we shall be all right dear, never fear,
and when I return in about ten mouths or a
year think of the rapture of seeing you once
more. And when I coma back I shall bring
with me a heap of all sorts of curiosities in
the shape of skins and horns, apd such like,
with whioh you will be able to adorn Our
future home.”
“Still, I wish ”
"I’ve made up my mind, Salome, and
there,” stopping her sweet mouth with a
tender, long-clinging kiss, “don’t say any
more.”
She was silent at his wish, and for some
moments they paced along the snow-cov
ered footpath in silence. Presently he spoke.
“Do you know, dear,” he said, tenderly,
"that I feel very curious as to your past.
Very rarely indeed does one find, I am sure,
suoh a face as yours among the working
classes of this country. When I first set
eyes on you, I honestly thought you were a
foreign girl of some kind.”
“I am half a foreigner,” she replied, with
a laugh, “for my mother was a pure
Spaniard.”
“Indeed!” ha cried, his interest evident
from his manner and altered tone. “Then
I understand where you got those glorious
black eyes of yours, and that un English
look ono perceives in your face occasionally.
But do tell me all about yourself and your
dead parents. 1 have often wondered as to
what your history might be, and, if you
have no objection, would like yon to tell me
of it now. What do you say, darling?”
“I shall be very pleased to tell you every
thing I know about myself and my parents,
Paul,” the girl answered readily and frankly.
"I have thought of telling you many a time,
but I made myself believe that you would
not care to bo bothered with a lot of talk
about people whom you had neither soen
nor known.”
“I should have taken the deepest interest
In everything affecting you, dear,” ho
whispered, as his arm stole round her waist.
‘‘•No detail of your past would have proved,
°r will now prove, uninteresting to me. Go
on. dear, and tell me everything.”
“Well, Paul,” she began, "1 hardly know
bow or where to commence. My earliest
rcoolleotions carry mo back about fifteen or
sixteen yearg ago, when I and ray mother
were living In a small farm house in a
Y orkshire village, called Murlcombe. My
mother was at that time working at a farm
ncl w e were lodging with some frilnds."
“How was it that your mother was work
lnß? What of your father? Surely your
was not a widow then?” he queried.
"That is the strangest part of the story,
1 am.” she replied, iu a falling voioe. "My
jnnther’s history is much more remarkable
than my own—in faoc mine is plain and
Pro-aio enough.” *
„ "Tell me your mother’s story then first,
„ he exclaimed.
1 will tell It to you in as few words as I
™ n - I will tell you as she told me when
_ “ dying over ten vears ago. To make
understand it thoroughly I shall have
say something of my mother’s parents.
n ,X,? r *°df:her and grandmother on my
- tber a side were pure Spaniards, who had
' BttlU9 strange dispensation of the fates
fljc JHofnitnj
drifted to that little village in Yorkshire
which I have already mentioned.
“My grandfather or grandmother had
done something or other whioh had won the
gratitude of some lord and his lady, and as
a reward was given some position on the
estate. At Marlcouibe my mother was
born, and there she remained until she met
my father, married him, and I was born.
“ Ibe way in which my parents met was
very singular. One morning in summer
as mother was going to the well, she saw a
man lying, apparently asleep, under a
hedge by tlio roadside. Bbe had a dog
with her and it aroused the man, who on
seeing her, asked for a drink. She ran to
the well, gave him a drink, and then he
fainted away.
“As you may imagine, my mother was
not a little terrified when she saw the
stranger fall senseless on the grass, and
she at once ran back to the house for assis
tance. Wheu her father heard of what
she had seen, he hurried to the man's assis
tance, and carried him at once into
the cottage. There he lay for many days,
dangerously ill, according to my mother’s
account, and when he reoovered sufficiently
he explained to those who had tended him
iu his hour of naed that he was very well
connected, and had left home on acoouut of
some serious quarrel be had had with his
relations.”
“What was the man’s name?” Paul aeked,
in evident eagerness. “At least, what
name did he give himself?”
"He said bis name was Sydney Barring
ham,” she answered.
“Barringham, Barringham,” he mut
tered in a meditative way. "I think I have
bean! that name before, but for my life 1
cannot remember when or whore. But
where did he say he came from?”
“ He never spoke on that point, Paul, and
they never questioned him as to where his
home was, or where his relatives lived. He
told them to wait and have confidence in
him and all would be well in time. They
must have trusted nitu very much.”
“But what was he like? Did your
mother ever describe him to you, Sa
lome i”
“Many a time,” was her response.
“Mother said he was verv handsome-look
ing and evidently a gentleman from his
manners aud speech. He was tall, fair
haired, and seemed to be about 25 vears
old.”
“ Well, go on with your story, dear.
What happened after this Sydney Barring
ham reoovered, Salome?"
“He aud mother fell in love and were
married. My mother’s mother had been
dead many years at that time, and after
the marriage grandfather and my paronts
all lived together in the cottage.”
“And afterward? What did your father
do? Did he go back home to make peace
with his relatives?” ho domanded.
"I cannot tell you. After the marriage
he sought and obtaiued through
my father’s influence a situation as
underkeeper on the estate, and
for several months they lived very
happily together. Then suddenly and with
out the least warning, my father disap
peared. One night in winter he went out
saying he was going for half an hour to the
village inn —whioh was not very far away
—and ha never returned.”
"Had your mother and father quar
reled?” he asked, his amazement deepen
ing each moment.
“Never a word of anger had ever passed
between them, so she told me.”
“But when be left the house that night he
must havo already made up his miud to go
away.”
“It would not appear sa, for he wont to
the public house, and remained there some
short time. They never saw him again, but
he wrote the same night ”
“Where did ho write Croat!”
"From a village a mile or two away."
“What did he say?”
“He Bald that circumstances over whioh
ho had no control had taken him from her,
that he oouid not tell her where he was go
ing or how long he would bo away, but he
assured her there was no cause for alarm no
matter how long he was absent; and he
promised to write again soon.”
“He wrote?”
“Never again did she either see him or
hear front him. She waited and waited for
months, even years, but her watching and
waiting was all fruitless; and when grand
father died, and she was forced to leave the
cottage, she obtained lodgings with some
friends at a farm in the district.”
“Your grandfather would leave your
mother some means, I daresay, Salome?"
“Only a few pounds, 1 understand.
Mother told mo that she supported
herself and me by helping in the dairy.
After waiting for two years she left
the plsoe. She was tired of being
an object of curiosity and comment to all
the people in the village, for, of course, nil
the folks in Mario erabe knew of the singular
manner in which my mother had been de
serted.”
“I can understand how sho would fool,
dear,” he whispered in sympathetic tones.
"It must have been a terribly trying time
for her.”
By this time the Invars wore within sight
of the hamlet of Thorreil Moor. Across the
white expanse of suow-oovered and moon
lit highroad they oouid see the straggling,
old-fashioned cottages, with the warm
lights shiiing in many of the windows;
and over the meadows, i-nong the black,
leafless trees, they could perceive the peaked
rn if of the vicarage, which was to be the
White Gipsy’s hotno for some time to come.
"fUippose wo turn back now, Salome?”
Paul suggested, “and as we walk back you
can aontinue your story. I never dreamt,
wben I naked you to tell me something
about your past, that you • history would
turn out to be so remarkably roman tio. Go
on, dear. After you and your mother left
Marleombe where did you go?”
••We waut to Manchester; mother had
applied for and obtained a situation in some
gentleman’s family there, and there we
settled down. Before leaving Marleombe
mother told her friends where we were
going, aud arrauged that she was to be
written to in case my father or any one else
seeking her on his behalf turned np.
And so my mother went into service and I
was placed in charge of a poor but respect
able woman. Whenever my mother had a
holiday she used to oome to me, and I have
still a vivid recollection of the soenas I used
to make when she, at the end of the day,
was compelled to go away aud leave me.
"There is nothing moro to tell yoa until X
oome to tbs time of my mother’s death.
Bbe died, so the doctors said ,of consumption.
I believe she died of a broken heart. At
the time of her death I was 10 year* old, and
before she passed away she told me all I
have told you to-night”
Her voice broke at this point, and be felt
rather than saw that she was crying. For
a moment or two he was silent, not wishing
to intrude upon her sorrow; but he drew

her slender form against his own as they
paced through the crisp snow. Presently
she took up the thread of her narrative.
“I was adopted by the woman with whom
1 lodged, whose husband was a miner.
Originally they had belonged to this part of
Lancashire, and when they returned to their
native place I came with them. Before
coming to Marsh Green I had worked in the
mill, but I disliked the work, so l went to
work on the pit brow. That is all I have
to tell you, Paul."
“You must have a remarkable memory."
he said, when she had finished, “to remem
ber all these Incidents."
“Probably I should have forgotten many
things had not Mrs. Hill refreshed my mem
ory now and again. She knows my
mother’s strange story and we have talked
over it frequently.”
"Did you never disoover anything of
your father, Salome? ’he asked, moodily.
“Dd you never discover where he had gone
to or what had become of him?”
She shook her dark bead in silence.
“ It is strange—very strange,” he went on.
“I suppose he must have died after leaving
your mother. That seems the ouly sensible
sointion of his absence and unbroken silence
during all these years.”
“That is the only explanation I could
think of,” she answered. “Surely if he had
not died he would not have deserted her.
My mother was very bevutiful—much more
handsome than I am, Paul; and Mrs. Hill
says she could have married well afterward
had she cared to do so. But she rejected
every offer aud died faithful to the man
who first wen her heart. Even to the day
of her death she believed that my father
would turn up some day, and her confi
dence in him never wavered."
“I suppose you have not got a portrait of
your father, Salome?”
“No, but X have ono of my mother which
I Will show you some day if you care to
see it.”
“Where were your parents married?”
“In the village church at Marleombe."
“What was your mother’s name—her
maiden name, I mean?”
“Salome Velazo.”
“And your father’s was Sydney Barring
ham ?”
“Yes.”
“I should like to get to the bottom of all
this mystery," be said, with a thoughtful
and wrinkled brow, “but I suppose it would
taka a very genius in the detective line to
solve the riddle.”
“It would, Paul, and I fear the mystery
surrounding my father’s strange disappear,
anoe will never be cleared up now.”
" Who can tell? ’ he replied, morn cheer
ily. “Riddles as strange as this one have
been solved often enough before by smart,
determined men; aud it is quits possible
that yonr father’s relatives may be discov
ered, even if he himself and the cause of his
deser ion of your mother be not revealed.”
She shook her bead in a doubting way,
and he added;
“Havo you ever visited Marleombe, Sa
ome, since you left it a child?”
“Never,” Bbe answered. “I have often
thought of doing so, but have always been
prevented from carrying .out my wish
owing to one reason or another.”
“Home day we will journey there to
gether. I should like to see the cottage
wherein you were born, and in whioh your
father aud mother spent the first few
months of their weddef lives., You cannot
imagine, dear, what a deep impression this
story of yours has made upou me. But I
will not agitote you further bv talkiDg
about the matter any more just now.”
She gave him a pleased look in answer,
and they continued their walk along the
lane. Suddenly, Paul broke the silenoe by
remarking.
“Do you know, Salome, dear, that there
is one thing I have not told you, and which
in honesty to you, I think I ought to con
fess ’*
“What is that, Paul?”
“You know Miss Carsiand?”
"Yes, I know her. 1 met her at the con
cert one evening."
“Well, at one time, I made myself believe
that I was in love with Cordelia, and was
almost on the point of formally proposing
to her.”
“Xber9 was some truth then ia that
rumor as to your engagement?” she asked,
quietly.
“Not a word, I assure you, dear. I might
havo committed myself had she not re
strained ms from speaking, for she is very
handsome, and I admired her greatly.
Fortunately, the words on my tongue were
never uttered, and you cannot fancy how
glad lam now But you must remember
that I had not seen you then. Had we uever
met, dear one, there is no telling what I
should have done.”
“>ii3s Carsiand knows of our engagement,
I suppose, Paul*”
‘ ‘Bbe must know when it is the common
talk of ail the villages round about here.”
"I am sorry for her, Paul, if she loved
you as I do,” Balonae whispered, sympa
thetically. "Do you think she oared for
you *”
“Not much, I should imagine, or she
would not have stopped me from speaking.
Cordelia is rather Cold-blooded, and,” he
added with a laugh, “her health does not
appear to be affected by the knowledge that
Ira going to marry you.”
She made no reply and they crossed the
wide white space in front of the White
Crow to turn down Spenser's lane toward
the girl's home. As they passed under the
gas lamps, Salome tagged at her love, ’s
arm. saying:
"See, Paul! isn’t that Sir Sydney Cars
land ooming toward us?”
He glanocd ahead {and therein the clear
moouiight, not men e than a score of yards
away be perceived a figure walking slowly
in tneir direction, whioh he easily identified
a--; that of bis guardian.
“By Jove, you're right, Salome! Who’d
have thought of meeting him here?" be
criad. "I'm glad, though, for I want you
to know him, and he expressed a desire to
be introduced to yon when I told him of our
engagement.”
A minute later the baronet and the White
Gipsy were shaking each other by the hand,
utter their hurried and informal presenta
tion by Paul; and Sir Sydney was express
ing in bis courtliest manner the pleasure he
feit in making the acquaintance of one of
whom he had nsard so much.
But while Carsland’s lips fashioned his
flattering words bis breast was filled with a
strange, vague terror, and nis eyes were
riveted on the white face of the beautiful
girl who stood before bim. They stood
chatting together for a few moments, aud
when Sir Sydney raised his bat and was
about to bid Salome good night,Paul broke
in with:
“It you don’t mind waiting a few mo
menu while I see Salome to the door, I will
walk home with you. Sir Sydney.”
“Certainly, Paul," was the ready, even
eager response. “1 shall be glad of your
company, and as the night Is oold I’ll step
into the White Crow and wait for you
there. It’B years since I set foot 1b the old
house,” ne added apologetically.
Paul nodded and walked along the lane at
Salome’s side; aud wben he parted from bis
sweetheart and returned ten minutes after
ward he found Sir Sydney seated in the
parlor of the tavern, toasting bis toes before
the big fire, with the remains of a brandy
and soda at his elbow.
When the young man entered the baronet
drained his glass, asked Paul what he would
take in the shape of a drink, and receiv
ing his ward’s answer, ordered two small
brandies and split soda. As they were walk
ing toward Carsiand ball a short time
after this, Sir Sydney remarked quietly:
“And so that is your sweetheart, Miss
Salome Barringham, Paul?"
“Yes, Sir Sydney,” was Paul’* ready re
ply. “What do you tbink of her now?”
"I think she is uncommonly beautiful,”
was the rejoinder, "and if 1 had not been
told I should never have suspected her of
being a pit brow girl.”
“I am sure you wouldn’t,”,was the younger
man’s pleased answer. “She is in every
way above her class, and is singularly re
fined and intelligent tor one who has bad to
work for a livelihood all her life."
"So I thought. I suppose you have not
yet made any inquiries as to where she
comes from? She does not speak like one
bred and born in this part of l.anraahire.'’
“Salome has told me all about herself this
evening, and a most remarkable narrative
It was, Sir Sydney.”
“Indeed, iu which way?”
“In every way!" said Paul, warmly; * ‘and
the story of her mother’s life was oven more
singular than her own.”
"You interest me very much, Paul," the
baronet responded, quite Ooolly, “and, if
you have no objection, I should like to hear
more about the girl and her mother—and
her father also—for I suppose that he was
not less interesting than his wife and
daughter.”
"i can toll you oothing of Balome’s
father, for 1 know nothing - save this—that
he deserted them in a mysterious manner
before tuy sweetheart was born.”
“You amaze me! But where was she
born, Paul.'” Bir Sydnei asked, his voice
steady and perfectly under control.
“At a village iu Yorkshire called Marl
combe. Her mothers name was Salome
Velazo, and the man she marr.ed was a
gentleman tramp, whom she found sick
under u hedge and uurood back to health
and strength. The man called himself ”
“Curse the snow!” broke suddenly from
the baronet’s lips. So eagerly had he been
following his ward’s words that ho had not
looked w here he was walking, and had in
consequence slipped off t o footpath and
fallen on his knees in the snow.
“You are not hurt, I hope, Sir Hrdnei ?”
Paul queried as his guardian jumped lightly
to his fee* again.
“Not at all, thank you.”
“ Well, us I was about to say, it was a
most remarkable thing that Salome Velazo
should marry an entire stranger, and that,
tie should disappear so qntokly afterward."
“But that is r.o fault of your sweetheart,
for she co dd not pi event either the mar
riage or her father’s sudden going away.
Bill did they never hear of him again?"
“Never a word!"
“How strange, tn be sure. Has Ss’ome’s
mother been dead long?” was the next ques
tion the baronet put to the other, without a
trace of concern being peroeptlble in his
tones.
".Nearly ten years ago, s > I atn given to
understand, and I believe she died with her
confidence in her mysterious husLa al un
shaken. It’s n strange story aitf gather, f-’ir
Sydney, and 1 should like to probe the mys
tery to the very bottom.”
“It is not the only mystery in tlio world,
my dear boy, and will, I fear, like so many
other mysteries, remain unraveled,” said
Sir fclydtiev, lightly. "Of course I can un
derstand your w ishing to ferret the thing
out, but I nin afraid it will only be a waste
of time and thought, unless you have some
clew to set to work upon.”
“I have not the faintest clow, Sir Hvd
ney.”
‘‘Then I’d never bother my bead about it.
Your sweetheart is both beautiful and ra
speetablo, aud the story of her parentage
will not cause you to care for her less than
you do.”
"Certainly not, Nir Bydueyl” Paul cried,
warmly. “If anything, it will only make
me love and honor bamme more than be
sore. Htill, for hoi satisfaction and com
fort it would be wed to lift the curtain
which hides har father’s strange action in a
cloud.”
The l aionet made no rejoinder to this,
and Paul changed the subject.
