Waiting for the Dawn.
BY IRENE INGE.COLLIER.
In » dtiti rambling mansion embowered in
lemon and banana trees, Eloise sat looking out
ova the low, level lands to the sea that.lit with
sunset color, stretched to the eastern horizon.
Ouiet. lonely and utterly secluded was this new
Lome of liers—this asylum to which she had
brou"bt» heart full of bitter regrets ani fore
bodings. The overseer who lived in an out
house some distance away, was the only white
Derson on the place beside herselt. The house-
Leepe a —a dignified, but apparently kind and
attentive mulatto woman, her son a queer, m-
ouisitive creature, with round, funny eyes and
amo ith ever ready to expand in grins, and a
quadroon girl who waited upon Eloise were the
only other members of the household. The
field hands occnp ed cabins a quarter ot a mile
away. When wearied and sad she bud reached
the little Florida village where her travel by
public conveyance was to end, she found the
carriage Bertram had directed hi* agent and
oveiueer to tend for her, awaiting her with the
overseer on horseback in attendance. She had
stepped into the carriage, seen strapped behind
it the small trunk filled with materials to be
made up into wearing apparel which she had
bought in a town she passed through, and been
driven away, over low hills and through long
reaches of level meadows and open pine woods
T'itil,at the close of day, the carriage stopped
before the gloomy convent-like house, the negro
coachman descended and opened the door and
the overseer, (Mr. Bertram’s agent as he prefer
red 1o 1 e called, J assisted her to alight, and es-
tort'ng her to the house, left her in the hands
of the house keeper. That personage soon had
for her a nice cup of tea, cake, biscuit and or
ange marmalade, but she could only drink the
tea while her eyes wandered around the prison
like abode, made yet more gloomy by the cloud
ed Bight and the low, dull sound of the sea.
Bertram had written that the lady who would
Brrive to take possession of Ocean View was a
re-r relative, out of health and sad because of
recent afflictions and directed that every atten
tion should be paid her. But she felt that all
looked at her with wondering eyes. Her youth,
her loneliness, her sadness and beauty sur-
lounded her with mystery even in the eyes of
teat plain, unromantic person, the agent, and
the ignoi ant negroes who waited upon her so
2 'entively, admired her delicate beauty and
p'tied her fragility and evident depression.
They stood at the door listening in wonder
and delight when, opening Ihe old-fashioned
bnt richly toned piano that adorned the sitting
room, she played, at first inttumental pieces on
ly, afterwards she sang and her glorious voice
rang through the old house, startling its echoes
and making the birds stop to listen.
‘Here I rest my one hope,’ she said to herself.
•In this gift oi mine lies all my hope for the fu
ture. Fame, independence, power, revenge-
all but happiness. That I shall never know
again. But here I shall have leisure to culti
vate my talen* Here I may devote all my time
to practising the voice that all have praised,
that I know to be far beyond ordinary scope and
possessed of the subtle, magnetic quality that
charms and enthralls. God help me. it is all I
have now. I feel that my former friends will
tnra from me, that slander will poison their
thoughts of the absent ’
Eloise’ presentiments did not deceive her;
Blander was indeed busy with her name in the
town which she had quitted under the cloud
ot night and secrecy. Search and inquiry after
her proved vain. Her brother did not respond
to the telegram sent to him,and Mr. Sansom.the
gentleman who had sent the first message,
dispi ched a message to a friend of his
in New York, to find out the whereabouts of
the bi other of Eloise. He replied across the
wires that the gentleman in question was trav
eling out West on business and had expressed
his intention of going to see Eloise betore his
return.
The search for the missing girl went on lor
days. When the stage arrived, the driver was
eagerly questioned, but Eugene’s dark eyes
were upon him and a hundred dollar bill lay
safely in his pocket. Consequently, heprofets-
ed himself utterly in the dark as to Miss Ennis’
movements. Engene Bertram by his prompt
co-operation in the search for Eloise, and his
seeming anxiety and eagerness to solve the mys
tery of her disappearance bau disarmed suspic
ion* in a great measure. His protestations oi
utter ignorance as to what had become of her,
we r o apparently so trntblul that,coupling their
sincei ity with his honorable reputation and the
feet that he was present, quietly attending to
his business when her disapp -.ranee was dis
covered—these facts all tended to make people
believe him innocent of cuy knowledge of her
strange disappearance.
Suspicion still lingered, however, m the
breast of Sydney Forman. He listened to Eu-
r ene’s repeated conjectures about Eloibe s flight,
he saw him stemmgiy most earnest in search
ing for her and in instituting inquiry that
might lead to a clue, and while others were de
ceived his heart told him the giri he loved had
been spirited away by the man, who disclaimed
being per lover, yet constantly sought her pres
ence and e: 're-'sed a strsnge power over her.
inherited, together with the money her tricky
husband appropriated from the estate of care
less, big-souled Col. M. who, when he moved to
A, left his books and accounts in the hands of
this sly rogue, then a briefless lawyer, now a
nabob of the shoddy class. A well-mated pair,
he and his foui-tongned wife. Do you think
what she says will have any weight in the com
munity ?’
‘A slander always finds believers and repeat-
ers.’
‘True,’ groaned Sydney, putting his hand to
his brow. ‘I will hold her husband responsi
ble.’
‘You well know he refuses to have anything
to do with her fusses. • He will not fight, and
will be so bland and polite, you cannot even
thrash him without feeling yon are unjust.’
‘What then can be done? Must that sweet
girl be traduced in her absence?’
‘ I see no other alternative and,,Syd, there
is one thinq her triends cannot deny.’
‘ What is that ?’
«Why, that Eloise did ride out with Engene
for months before this transpired, regularly,
once, and sometimes oftener during a week and
did not return until late.’
‘Does not evesy other lady do the same?’
* I am not blaming Eloise, for I do not think
her capable of any indiscretion, yet the tattlers
have a fine field. She left a broad road open
for them to swoop down after her.'
‘Have I not driven her'ont time and again,
and I know she was in all intercourse the pure,
spotless Eloise Ennis.’
‘I tell you that’s not the thing; she showed
Eugene great preference.’
‘That old Mrs. Winifred started that malig
nant falsehood; fierce, rawboned, old fury, eD-
vious and jealous; a strange thing it is, that
women take chief delight in pushing one an
other down. Why, I should think being a wo
man would cause every fibre to tingle at hear
ing one of their sex abused. Strange they have
not found out Mrs. Winifred.’
‘I am of your opinion. Sid, you will hear it
all from your mother, for it is generally rumor
ed. I supposed you had htard it. ’
Not a word, before.’
Well I must be gone. Sid, if you hear any
news of Eloise, come around.’
‘I will, thank you; oblige me likewise.’
Sansom went out, and Sid closed his door.
‘Is it possible ? Must her iair name be tarn
ished with the breath of slander ? Eloise pure
and refined, will they thus seek to disgrace you?
Ah those vile slanderers! I would build all of
them a funeral pyre and light the fagots myself.
I once knew a woman as innocent of wrong as
a child at its mother’s knee. One act of indis
cretion, a thoughtless act, came near wrecking
her life. 1 was an eye witness to all that took
place, and I made it known that I knew—had
it not have been for me, the noble woman would
have been buried beneath a load of shame, heap
ed up by others. She never lifted her head as
she once did, and though she moves through
the same circle of society, Bhe looks with suspi
cion npon those who would be her friends. The
whole caused by an envious woman—an inti
mate friend. Let them talk though. They can
not tarnish her real worth, and nothing, my
darling, can cloud you in my eyes. Could I
now have your love, you would crown my life.’
Eugene came in a few moments later, and
though Sidney was ccld and reticent, be expres
sed his intention of accompanying him home.
Neither spoke often during the drive. The news
that Eloise’s fair fame was fonlly attacked was
known to both, and Eugene had expressed his
indignation almost as freely, but not as passion
ately as his companion.
A few passing topics of the day were discus
sed, intervals of quiet prevailed until home was
reached. Tbrowingt.be reins to the servant,
Engene and Sid passed into the house. After
bidding Eugene to leel at home, Sid went to his
mother’s room.
How soothing were her soft hands to his knot
ted brdw. They talked ; tears came several times
to her eyes as she saw the pain and anguish of
her son. She tried to give advice. But we 11
leave them talking and turn to the three in
the parlor.
Eugene did not notice the light in which the
young ladies viewed his conduct, though he did
know that Carrie was no friend cfhis. She was
extremely distant, but Anna’s treatment was
more cordial. As a matter of course, Eloise was
their topic of conversation.
Eugene wished to turn the conversation.
‘Miss Carrie, your work is of a fine material I
see, making lace; it costs many hours ot close
work which I imagine is damaging to the eye?.’
‘This is not lace but crochet, very flue work
and trying to the eyes as you say. I began this
for Eloise, but
Eloise. Sid was annoyed that the one piece
should be selected from her repertoire. Yet
Anna knew nothing of Sidg devotion to Eloise.
Eugene, bending over thepjano, knew that Car
rie’s and Sid’s eyes were fiqitinizing him.
•I believe I will go up taps,’ Carrie said at
last.
‘No, come and sit with ison the porch,’ said
her brother, taking her h a J.
Alone on the porch the* talk drifted into the
one theme that was occnii^g the hearts of both.
Anna cared little for E,j*e though she said
nothing against her. _ j
Carrie leaned her headgainst Sid’s shoulder
and said, ‘Oh Brother, Va| do you think? Fred
came to see me to-day ai talked so unkindly of
Eloise. I stood it all Mong as pbssible and
we parted in anger. I c.not forgive him.’
‘Talked unkindly of oise ? why Fred was
one of her best friends.Well, absence makes
all forget.’
‘Not so, my dear brotr. I can not bear to
bear her spoken of ligljt.’
•She is a noble, wroc| woman.’
•Yes indeed. She is tin New York nor at
her aunt’s in Vermont. Tie stage driver knows
nothing. I feel, brotbttbat she is not in dan
ger personally, but in at trouble: then I wish
to know do you believae s'age driver is tell
ing the truth, and if yibelieve all Eugene is
doing, is not a preteii’
•Yes, I believe Eugeknows just where she
is. I could not hear mi Vermont, but she
has not had time to g® New York. I have
had the same feeling at Eloise.’
The two on the poithought long and con
versed of what was bto do and how to act;
while the two in the pr talked of the divin
You and she were staunch friends and confi
dants and, as a matter of course, told each other
all secrets; strange she did not leave you a seal
ed note.’
‘Not a bit, Mr. Bertram, there is a mystery
connected with her llight and life which cannot
now be revealed.' Carrie raised her eyes as she
spoke and turned more to the light. She was
seated near the window, a little behind the crim
son curtains, failing in folds to the floor, and
was partly hidden yet so seated as to view the
countenance ot Eugene.
‘These Northern women who come South to
teach school ostensibly, to find a husband really,
do not understand our people, they actvery dit-
passion called love, ’jr had banished Eloise
from their thoughts.
Tears hushed Carr: voice. The very last
one she bad thoughtild bo angry with her
had parted from her indly; the one to whom
she had plighted Itroth. Her heart was
grieved, and saying i-night to Sid, she went
up stairs.
Sid remained long the porch, 'thinking
how his day-drean»re shattered; now his
life had no charm.
Eugene still lingealking to Anna in his
own grave, facinatiny.
So soon after telliloise how he loved her,
we find him ponrino Anna's ears the same
tale of love.
Anna did not lovi, but still thought all
his part in this dr might be brought out
by telling him the e burned brightly fed
by his love. She dered as he asked re
peatedly for her tolper a ‘yes.’
‘Mps Anna, you known me a long time,
and why do you aetirne? But as you do
not say ‘no,’ I am ig to tell you that I will
bask in the moonbof hope.’
‘Mr. Bertram, I 4 tell you ‘no’—not be
cause I wish to lui on—’
Engene interruper: ‘It is not what I
would expect frou, Miss Anna, you will
not close entirely hntter and conoeal the
moonbeams.
•Twilight and minis, hope and regard are
not what I give tend, nor the kind I would
wish to receive, nan I give my love to,
must hold the fir,8 in both my esteem and
affection; must rsng of my heart, and I
will love as neveiioved before. I can do
so, and will.’
‘Then, the onelied there, must be par
excellent ?’
Yes.’
Eugene advanohe door.
‘And I trust yet be one that occu
pies that niche, tfe the first woman I ever
truly loved. Mia, please bring the light,

•Can you iwhe brought the light to the

while doing this, and the cloths have actually
been set on fire by the heat he subjected them
to in endeavoring to warm his head. Some
time ago he made a visit to Livingston, in the
hope of being benefited by the arbsian water,
when D.. Webb of that town saw the case.
Lately he had determined to return to Living-
ston and try agtun the waters, and consulted
Dr. Webb going to bis office for that purpose.

office. He told hnn that he did not, and that it
was too ho, to have fire and be comfortable.
He said he could not stand it,and ran out of the
office into the street for the benefit of the sun
shine to warm himself. The next day Dr. Webb
ad him in his office again to make a more crit
ical examination of bis case, and bad then a
ronsiDg fire. He carefully tested with a ther
mometer the degree of animal heat he carried,
and found it near normal. With all of this
trouble he lost little flesh., and kept a good appe
tite for food, and preserved rather a healthful
look. On Friday he started homo again in a
wagon with a Mr. Meadows driving it. He
had not gone far out of Livingston before he
wanted to return, complaining that he was freez-
iDg to death, and wanted to get somewhere to
warm. Meadows insisted on continuing the
journey on home, and drove forward. Knox
jumped out of the wagon and ran off into the
woods. Meadows pursued him and compelled
him to return and get into the wagon again,and
drove on. He got as far as Mrs. Peteet's—Gr.een
Grants old place—with him. Mrs. Poteet had
observed Meadows driving slowly along the
road, and knowing he had gone to fetch the
sick man home, went out to the gate to make
inquiry. When Meadows drove up and stop

Knox was dying. He was lying stretched hel] -
less in the bottom of the wagon, and sf;er it
had stopped only gasped a few times and died,
apparently freezing to death last Friday, with

and the unaccountable absence of the woman

It was not long before scandal bad caught np

ney s office, and the all absorbing topic of El
oise’s disappearance was at once broached.
Mr. Sansom saying:
‘No cine to the missing lady yet?’
Sydney was very pale, he had just been read
ing a letter received from the post cfiice—a let
ter in answeg to,his own written two days be-
lore to a friend in and inquiring of him if
be had noticed the arrival of any lady of Eloise’s
description at that point.
A portion of the letter ran thus:.
‘A mysterious lady arrived here late Monday
afternoon and went on in the direction of Mem
phis. I noticed her particularly because cf her
superior loveliness. She wasef medium height,
was dressed in black, had large, liquid, expres-
Bive, black eyes and black hair.’
This letter he gave to Mr. Sansom, saying:
• I th’nk this may be a clue to where she has

•It seems stftnge, a modest, dignified girl,

she came. 1 can recall an incident in my life
that scares me every time I think of it—travel
ling a day and night with an escaped lunatic.
Perhaps Miss Eloise may be temporarily insane;
the dark in her life may be this,’
•For shame, Mr. Bertram !’ said Carrie, ‘a wo
man so gifted could not for an instant be thought
insane.’
•Do not think I accuse hpr of insanity, I only
stated a passirg idea, which, as yon say, is very
crude. Did Miss Ennis ever tell you her histo
ry?—bnt I suppose she did. being educated in
a public school, all b»t music, painting and
drawing and dancing. Her adopted father gave
her those advantages.’
•Yes Mr. Bertram I know all that, and much
more. How I shall miss her care in my music,
I cannot take lessons now,’ said Carrie.
‘I am sorry for Miss Albers, she is uncomfort
able over this affair,’ said Anna.
‘Yes, for she loves Eloise, there is a bond of
affection between the two—first Miss Albers was
her teacher and Eloise a pupil, and then her as
sistant, which causes her to leel so much sorrow.’
Sidney Faiman entered the room greeting his
sisters affectionately, and seated himself.
‘Well, what caused her sudden departure,
what did she mean, where is she ?’ said Anna.
‘Miss Anna your ratiocination is very trite.’
‘1 acknowledge all that Mr. Bertram, for 1 pre
sume that the same questions are asked five
hundred times a day.*
•It was premeditated Miss Anna.’
‘I have not sufficient perception to see her
cause. Why should she flee from her friends ?’
Y do not suppose we will ever know. She
will not return. We all once agrqed here
Jthat she never undertook anything without
meeting with success,’ replied Eugene.
‘Scarcely, I think,’ remarked Carrie, breaking
in very sarcastically.
‘A trace to all sarcasm, Miss Carrie, I never
wield that cumbersome weapon,—Miss Anna
