It was through the children I first liecamc acquainted with Mr. Van Decker maim. They were pretty little tots then, the two of them, and had such friendly ways with them that it would not have surprised any one, I imagine, that they should uttract where their elder:.' seemed rather to repel; but my wife and I were nevertheless conscious of a fer- tain feeling of triumph when wo first saw them in animated conversation with the funny old gentleman, about whom people- knew so little and speculated so much. Wo were living at that time in a small house in one of those old fashioned suburbs, whence the city is easiest of access, even the onrnibuggfcuv...$*» and. im being a matter of consideration- tois.-ttnd we knew as little of our neighbors as most people even in London. We were - very happy, all the same, being fully occupied—I on the city tread¬ mill which I am working still, with this dif¬ ference, that I am better paid for it—Mary looking after the house and Children, and keeping both after such a fashion that in our poorest days it was a pride and it pleasure to come homo to them. “You are the luckiest man I knotv,’’ Mr. Van Deckcrmunn said to me once—“or have known,” ho said, correcting himself. “To say whom I know would not be to say much,” which, indeed, judging from our observa¬ tion, was true enough. Nobody scorned t > know him to speak to, but everybody in the neighborhood must have known him by sight, for he was to bo seen daily, summer and winter, taking the same monotonous walk, and dressed in the same odd fashion, in a brown coat cut in the style of at least fifty years before, with brass buttons, and a wide brimmed hat, beneath which ho woro the most transparent impost¬ ure, in the shape of a wig with which I iio ve ever come in contact. It was in great measure tho contrast between this, which was of a somewhat lively brown, and tho iron gray of his bushy eyebrows which conduced to tho Oddity of his appearance. His eyes were tho only striking feature in his face, being dark, prominent aud piercing, and the skin was a network of wrinkles on parchment, hut no one who had seen his countenance light up as I saw it that Sunday eveiifug, at the innocent prattle of tho children, would have received other thou a pleasant impression of the little old man. We had come upon the trio rather sud¬ denly, Mary and I„ and had the reluctance to speak upon either side been over so strong, it must iu common courtesy have been over¬ come. We exchanged greetings accordingly, and from that day forth tho acquaint¬ ance thus inaugurated ripened steadily into an intimacy, in the course of which I arrived at these primary facts concerning Mr. Van Deckennann. He was, as his name indicated, of Dutch extraction, he had no occupation, and he lived, and had lived for years, iu a house which would have contained three of mine, in the most expen¬ sive situation thereabouts. What he wanted, or over had wanted, being a bachelor, with a residence of such dimensions it would not have been easy to determine—tho less so that ho saw no company, and that the establish¬ ment was restricted to two old servants- like himself English by birth and breeding, but of foreign origin—with a sort of “slavey,” upon whom doubtless devolved the giant’s share of such work as there was to do, under them. “lea are the luckiest man 1 hnotc, ’ We came little by little, as I have already intimated, to sec a good deal of him; mora in the summer, however, than iu the winter, when I was glad enough to stay at home in the evenings, when I got there, and he felt naturally, at his age, equally indisposed to turn out. But in the long, light days ho was fond of dropping in on iis after dinner, aud if we should sometimes have preferred being to ourselves we were careful never to show it. We were flattered by tho fancy he seemed to have taken to us, and sorry for his loneliness, and I do not pretend but that we appreciated the fact that he might, if he would, be a good friend to us. It was in tho eourso of the second summer of our acquaintance that one Sunday even¬ ing after church ve came up with him lean¬ ing over the palings of au old fashioned bouse, at some distance from our own. It stood back in its own grounds a good distance from tho road, and such glimpses of the building itself as were to be obtained through the screen interposed by the trees’and shrubs in front of it, gave one the idea of a sufficiently gloomy exterior. We had remarked upon its dismal and unoc¬ cupied appearance more than once, and won- dered, seeing hew long it remained appar¬ ently uutenanted, at the absence of any indi¬ cation that it was to be either sold or let, but we were not prepared for Mr. Van Dcoker- mann’s first words. “You have brought mo back to the pres¬ ent,’ no replied. “I had gone back further than you could go, either of you. That was my father's house; the hodse in which I was born and bred._ pitching It remained os positively he left it, with such up as has been necessary, ever since he died.” “But not-empty, as it is now* Somebody has lived in it since then, surely?” my wife said timidly. “Tho old couple who take care of it, no¬ body else,” be replied, as we walked away from it. “Every! Kxly has a craze of some sort, they say, Mrs. Thurnell, aud that is mine. You have heard of certain rooms in a bouse being kept sacred to tbe memory of certain people? Why should not I go a little further and keep the whole house so, when I am about it'f The sharp tone and the laugh thqt accom¬ panied it grated on the ears of us both, and my wife’s hand pressed my arm a little ner¬ vously as she answered: “Certainly, you have a right to do what yon like with your own. If yon did not care to live in it yourself- He turned round upon her before she had time to finish the sentence, striking the ground with his stick as though he would have driven it into it to emphasize his words, setto voice, which bore evidence to his ex¬ citement. “Live in it myself— I—after ali that bad 'iff. irt y 'yg; • ", -y Happened m iu i woum inner nave oeggeo my bread on" the road* — rather — Good heavens! what would f not rather? Bat there, I beg your pardon,” lie added, cooling down. “I can’t expect you to undet-sUmd, bow should yon? If you Lad spent theretbe most miserable boyhood, barring one thing, that ever man had to look back to, you would hateftt as I do.” “And yet you don’t got rid of it alto¬ gether t” I interposed at this juncture. “Why not pull it down and sell the faux) for build- lag upon? You would make a good thing tiiOT- -. “Why hot? Because I am a tool, l sop- pose,” he returned curtly. “Because, if there arc many memories for which I hate it, there wm a few for which I love it. What was it 1 saw in your little maids, do you suppose, but a likeness to another little maid, dead and buried long ago—the only bit of sunshine that ever strayed within those four walls, the only creature that loved me, or that (had to love. She was my cousin, and she was an orphan. How she came to be left to my father's care I never clearly understood, but sho came to us before I could remember, and! she was more to him than ever I was. There V" tpo good a reason that ho should not care much for me. He had not been fortunate in his marriage, and it had soured him, but he must have been hard and cruel to begin with, or he could never have done by his own flesh aud blood as he did by mo. I was not good at my books, what cleverness I had lay in an¬ i other direction, and, unhappily for me, went to a day school, so that my father's eye was never off me, and he took it upon him¬ self to sec that I did the task that was set me. There was ho kind of punishment -be dia resort to. I was flogged, starved, imprisoned by turns. It was as though he thought ho was wreaking his vengeance upon my mother through me. The only way in which Alice got into trouble was by espousing my quarrels—the only way, heaven help her sweet soul!—from first to last!” He paused for a moment, his voice husky with emotion,.and Mary laid her hand gently on his arm. “Another time, Mr. Van Deckermann, tell ns another time,” sho said in her soft voice. “I should like you to know,” he replied, un¬ steadily, “and I should never bring myself to speak of it again. By the time I was 16 I had come to the end of my patience. My father was fast becoming as miserly as he was cruel, aud I could see plainly if I were to wait for him to give me a start in Ufe I might wait for ever. I knew that our name was well known at the Cape, and I trusted to its be¬ ing a passport there of which, in conjunction with the business faculty I was conscious of in myself, I might make use to my advant¬ age. I resolved to work my way out, and as soon as I had made enough to keep a wife, to come back for my cousin. It was at the gate at which you fifand me standing just now I said good-by to her. “I had been away nine years before I saw my way to making a home for her. For fhe greater part of the time it had been such hard work that but for the few pounds sho managed somehow—I often feared by going in rags or something approaching to it her¬ self—to send riu) now and then I must have starved'outright. But at the end of themine years I was able to write to her and Say I would come for her. She wrote me in reply that my father was very feeble, that sho had owed him a home all her life, and that we should wait until I could come homo for good. It was a great blow to a man who had already served for her so long, and was thirsting for tho sight of her, but it was as if I had no will of my own where sho was con¬ cerned. I stayed on where I was and set my shoulder to the wheel harder than ever for another three years. The Cape owed me nothing; then at last I turned my back on her. I had gone out a beggar, I came home with a handsome independence. And what was it, think you, I came home to? I had toiled and slaved and denied myself all these years for what? Merciful heavens! for what?’’ Ho stopped suddenly in tho road, aud wrung his hands, with an expression upon his face which haunts me to this day when I am troubled aud out of spirits. The same thought occurred at the same moment to my wife and myself. For some reason—possibly with little, if any, blame attaching to her¬ self—his old love had bqen false to him. So completely, as we found, when we came to compare notes afterward, had this idea taken possession of both our minds, that his next words took us quite by surprise. “You don’t ask me how I found her?” he said in a harsh voice. “You don’t ask me whether she was waiting to meet me where I had left her—where yon found me just now. You don’t picture her as I had pictured her to myself hundreds and hundreds of times, with tiie sea rolling between us; with’ her arms round my neck, and her lips pressed to mine, and the welcome I had been waiting for so long looking out of every feature of her sweet face. But you can fancy what it was to me to look for her like that, and think of her like tl&t, and then to find her, ns I found her—dead and busied!” His voice aank to a whisper in the utter¬ ance of those last words, aud except for a murmur of surprise and sympathy, which seemed all to which we found ourselves equal, wo went our way for the next few minutes in silence. Whether he would have told us more had we questioned him, I cannot pretend to aay, but I have often since regretted what was possibly a lost opportunity. He may never have meant us to be any wiser, but, on the other hand, if he did mean that, and was checked by a reticence, which sprang rather from too mnch feeling than too little, how much might have been spared both him and us! The inclination, supposing it ever to have existed, had ceased to animate him be. fore he spoke again, “You can understand now,” he said, with a resumption of his ordinary manner, which was so rapid as to be remarkable, “why tho very walls of that old house are at once sacred and abhorrent, dear and hateful to me. I con neither make up my mind to Id other people live in It nor to let It go to rack and ruin, and I would not live in it myself if there were not another roof in the wide world for mo to shelter under. But there, it is all over and done with, and we will find somothiug pleasanter to talk abont.” It was about midsummer, to the best of my recollection, this little conversation took place, and not long afterward oar house, of which we had only the half yearly tenancy, was sold over our heads—a circumstance which would have concerned us very little, had not the new owner required it for his own occupation. Conceive my astonish¬ ment when, under these circumstances, Mr. Van Deckermann offered me the long unin¬ habited Cedars! I say advisedly offered me, for the proposition was only submitted to my wife after it bad been talked over at consid¬ erable length between ns. The fact was, Mr. Van Deckermann frankly admitted, tiie house daring its years of dis¬ use had acquired a bad name, and though be believed me to have no more belief in the su¬ pernatural than he had himself, be bad no wish to withhold from me the knowledge of what would, it must be confessed, from the vulgar point of view, constitute a drawback to the very substantial kindness he talked of conferring upon me. “You are welcome to the house,” he said, from top to bottom. It shall not cost you a ncunv piece so long a* t live.'and when I am dead and gone you will be your own land¬ lord, but 1 am not going to saddle you with it under any false pretenses. The people who take care of it say it is haunted. It is to tbeir interest to keep others out of it, and they have contrived -to live there themselves a good many years in spite of it; but you may take what they say for whatever you think it is worth. I am not afraid of you, bat women are weak upon these points, and there is your wife to consider.” I was obliged to confess thn* nr- wife was not in this respect superior to t: .- cat of her sex She might face a bar, i— -she would certainly not wittingly run the risk of col¬ lision with a ghost. “I suspected as much,” he said equably, “and that is why I thought it better to in¬ troduce the subject in her absent '. I should be sorry for her to stand in her o > .»light and in yours, if it can be helped, and .bechances are she would. Now my own belief with re¬ gard to the Cedars is that there has been some sort of knavery carried on there for years, and my object is to get at the bottom ot it and to do you a good turn at the same time. We can’t offer Mrs. Thurnell tbe bouse with the ghost attached to it, with any rea¬ sonable hope of her acceptance of it—so much wo may take for granted. The ques¬ tion is, is it worth your while to try and dear the coast ot it before anything Is said to her about it!” The proposition was an odd one, to say the least of it, but the game seemed worth the candle, and I felt, moreover, how poor a figure I should cut in the old man’s eyes were I to decline it What it was he wished me to do precisely, he or didnotchoose to tell me, but I consoled myself with the re¬ flection that impostures of the sort he sus¬ pected were, as a rule, of the clumsiest, and, to make a long story short, I accepted the Cedars on his own conditions. My wife, who was told nothing to disquiet her, and who naturally, therefore, was overcome by the generosity which was being shown us, ac¬ companied Mr. Van Deckennann over the house and was charmed with it, with the style in which he proposed doing it up, even with the old furniture stowed away in the atties, and which was to supplement our own, and it was finally arranged we woro to take possession at Lady day. It was not, however, until close upon Christmas week, which we were going to spend, as usual, with my wife’s father down in Sussex, anything more was said of the private understanding f between my new land¬ lord and myself; had been trying to over¬ come Mary’s scruples about remaining be¬ hind with the children, after I was compelled to return to the office, and as there was an¬ nually the same little discussion between us, my unselfish little woman generally get¬ ting the better of it, I was not sur¬ prised to find that our shrewd old friend had reckoned upon this, and was prepared with % suggestion in his own inter¬ est. Mrs. Thurnell might, he said, make her¬ self quite happy about me and do him a fa¬ vor at the same time by allowing me to be¬ come his guest for the few eyenings I should otherwise have to spend by myself. The longer change could not but be beneficial to her and-to the children, and why should she net have it? Besides, it was necessary fear the carrying out of what he called our'innocent conspiracy against her that some such ar¬ rangement should be made. To Mary it seemed only a further proof of his kindness and consideration, and the invitation, the curious circumstances of which wero known only to him and to me, was accepted accord¬ ingly. It was not, however, until I had dined for the first time, tete-a-tete, with Mr. Van Deckermann, I was made aware of what was expected of me, and shall I confess that the knowledge did detract somewhat from my enjoyment of the best .glass of Madeira I had ever been privileged to taste? fro jk coxnxtran' The Stops of an Orange.
