Gibbons scratched his head In per

Gibbons was not a fool and had not

he knew that he was not to say that
the private papers were all kept In the
lawyer's own room. Ho he went out of
the room without saying more.

"That will do then. Gibbons.''
The little by-play had had Its due

looked sup.emely III at e*ae. He rose,
then. "Am 1 to understand, then, that

Mr. Casement rose also ami placed

CHAPTER VIII.
What Occurred on the Railway.
The Interview between Olive ond
Jack was the result of the betrayal of
which Mr. Casement had spoken, half
Jocosely, half nervously. She hud writ
ten to Jack on leaving Hllverbeecli.
that It would be better for them not to
meet again at presenL and Jack had
Immediately gono over to the lawyer’s
house. In defiance nf her letter.
She hml remained In her room, how
ever, asking Mrs. Casement tn tell him
an Interview would he loo painful, and
after he had gone she had written to
him again.
"My Dear Jark—"You should not
have come to Framptnn today. It only
gave me Hie pain of refusing lo see
you and you the pain of being refused.
I know why you came, of course, hut I
can not do whal you wish. I can not
lie your wife while this terrible cloud
rests on me. If It were only the loss of
my money I might give you a different
nnswer. Rut Ihe doubt which has been
cast on my birth, makes everything so
different, so baffling, so tragic.
"Your mother already dislikes me.
and she would then have cause to de.
splse me. The fact that I myself am
Innocent of wrong W"Uld be no answer

lier world, and your world, too. remem
ber: and while I do not and never could
doubt your love, I would not put you In
the position which would result, and
you must not put me In it.
"If I can unravel the mystery and
time weaker Just when I need nil
itinagUi. and does no good. This may
have a .-elllsli sound to you. yet I have
no selfish motive In saying It. 1 know
I would do anything to spare you pain,
but to yield to you In this would be
only lo Inflict It.
"We cun only wait and iierhaps hope.
"Yours as ever.
"OLIVE.’’
The letter affected Jack deeply, but
tlld not cause him to waver Tor an
Instant in Ills resolve to make Olive
marry him Jf he could by "any means
succeed. He saw Mr. Casement, there,
fore, and persuaded him to.entei'.lnto
the little scheme for him to sec Olive at
the office.
During all the'time the lawyer was
elnsqted with Merrldew. Jack argued
and pleauj'd. and strove with Olive te
get her to change her inlnd.
"I will not give you up. and I will
not let you send me away In tills fash
ion. We were all hut mnn nnd wife a
week ago. and nil that occurred then
and has occurred since has not made a

It means all the difference to me,

people may say. I know' ray mother
