The remembrance that he had an heir made him remember Bobby Dai"’* let ter; ami |erhaps it was the nosh lease of life which lie had taken that gave him a xrvater interest in that unlive than he h.id hitherto felt.

Yet the fellow* had a treacherous face; it was Imrrible to think cf him as Cicely’s husband.

The distsuce w aa measured out—surely it was a tery short one!—the antagonists were placed in p***!tion: then a handker chief wa* dropped, acd Archie iu-tantly tired into the air. The next second he Halted, staggered forward a few paces, crossed liisleg* and fell heavily upon his face, with his arms stretched out liefore him.
