Sylvia and her brother go for a walk and meet Basil, who quarrels with Ray mond. Basil, apparently Inaane over the Iota engagement demanded In the letter. Half an hour later the good clergy man again mounted hla horse and urged on that Indolent animal to an unusually rapid cantrr along the road • to Moorcombe, ----- while Mrs. Prosser’s phaeton Jolted In the lion of Rfdhrow and arrived at the solitary hoUae Just as the twilight shadows were beginning to gather. His wife found Rose Thurston all alone In the drawing room, Mias Le- tltia being "not at home"—whether actually so or only figuratively, Mrs. Prosser could but conjecture. Rose Thurston was reclining as usual on her lounge, from which she partly rose as her visitor entered the room. In .the shadowy light Mrs. Prosser was startled as she looked at the Invalid girl. "Rose, my dear, you really should be In bed I” Mra. Prosser exclaimed, for the pallor of the gtrl'a face was death like, and there were deep, livid circles under her eyes. "If I went to bed I could not sleep— I could not rest!” Rose Thurston said. In a very low, nervous voice. ‘T only ' regret that I was not strong enough to go over to my cousin's at Moorcombe today. But I could not go. The terri ble newa completely overcame me." There was something mechanical In the way she aald theae words, and her eyes were searching the sharp, nar row face before her nil the time, aa though she half suspected that Mra. Prosser's visit might not be altogether one of friendly sympathy, and that the clergyman's wife might be on the point of touching on a particular sub ject that bad hung like a sword above Rose's head ever since the tidings of Raymond Thurston's death had reach ed her. Could Mrs. prosaer have beard any whispers? Could ahe, with that sharp i? ,tlnc L 0, her *> "U"P«ct anything? Bose Thurston drew In her breath with a little shiver and braced herself to meet the attack courageously, dar ingly, If It should come. But Mrs. Prosser talked on and on, narrated details of the harrowing state of things at Moorcombe, dwelt pity. lmrlv fin Rvlvla'a imnnluenl msImb... lngly on Sylvia’s unnatural calmness and Monica Peard's fears for her friend, and Bose Thurston was begin ning to feel somewhat reassured, and a little sigh of relief escaped her. It was at that moment that Mrs. Prosser, with the air of having sud denly recollected something of Impor tance, turned abruptly—she had been gazing out at the rugged shoulder of the purpling meadows visible from the window near her, and looking keenly at Rose, said quickly: “And where Is Basil? Ho was not at Moorcombe today." Rose started almost Imperceptibly, but Instantly girded herself as If with steel. "No. Indeed, and he will be shocked to hear what has happened when he comes home. He went away yester day to see a friend near Lynton, and he has not yet returned. "Indeed I” Mrs. Prosser continued to stare at Rose: but the girl never flinched from the ordeal. "And at what time yesterday, my dear, did your brother start for Lyn ton?" lives some miles from'Lynton. Basil started about 6 In the nvenlng. lie rode his wheel, os he waited until tho storm had subsided a little.*: Mrs.' Prosser was silent for a few minutes. Whatever her thoughts may have been, she kept her own counsel. Roso Thilrston'a words, tones, looks and manner seemed to carry truth along with them, and the minister's wife had evidently no more to say. Mrs. Prosser took her leave shortly after this, and the moment the sound of ths retreating wheels of ths phaeton reached Rose Thurston's .ears the girl sank helplessly on the lounge.

"Well, whatever may bo whispered, there can be no evidence —no proofs—no witnesses.” Her frail form was shaken from head to foot In this paroxysm; but llt- tlo by little It subsided. A new Tear had suddenly thrust Itself Into tho girl's harassed heart, a fear that stead ied her with the sheer terror of It. Fesr. "What If Ruth Pritchard knows the truth? What if she recovers her speech and tells what she knows?” Then came a wild answer to her own query. . "But Basil Is gone—they can not Ana him! They shall not And him. No one knows of his midnight return to the houso last night—no one but my self—not even Aunt Letty—and no one shall ever know of It. Nothing would convince me that Basil could be guilty of deliberate crime, but In a moment of madness he may—he may have committed some desperate act!" Tho hurriedly written -note which Basil Thurston hod pushed under hla sister’s door the previous night had seemed to point to eome such unfor tunate occurrence, but the words of tbe farewell lines were .vague, and the writing, moreover, was so Illegible that Rose had been able to guess only at tho meaning of two-thirds of what the half sheet of paper contained. Sho had thrust the document into the fire at once, and In her heart of hearts she decided to bury forevermore the circumstances of her midnight con versation with her brother. In whatever direction the Inquiries Into tho tragedy of Raymond's death should lead, no word or act of hers, at least, should Implicate Basil. HOTEL r*ST.

Luckily for me, the task of breaking the news to Sylvia was spared me. saw the Judge first, and to him gradually revealed what I had dis covered. But I could not succeed In making him believe that hla son was actually dead. He was so vehement In his assertions that Raymond had only met with some accident and had fainted from loss of blood that at last 'or Ood'a sake, say nothing Mildred and Sylvia!' he said to me, 'until I return from tbe studio. I want to see for myself how things really are.' . 'And then my courage completely the coward's part. I rushed out of the house and Into the garden and threw myself on a bench In the sum mer house, closed my eyes and put my fingers in my ears.

She has not shed a tear today, and yet at times she seems to realise that Raymond is dead. She had a long talk today with the police Inspector, Mr. Rogers, and with my father, and they seemed almost as puzxled by her extraordinary calmness as I am." , And where Is aha at present?” “She ts In Raymond’s room, seated main there all night mother are In their own room.
