reason for his presence. She noted that
his face was flushed, his eyes heavy,
and that he was evidently nervous.

By BERTRAND BABCOCK.
The Story of the Play of the Same Name

Opera House, New York.
(Copyright, 1912, by Drury Lane Com
pany ot America, by arrangement
with Arthur Collins, managing
director of the Drury Lane
Theater of London.
Quite sweet of them!” went <»n the
woman. ‘But it was T who should have
been with you It was 1115 right, my duty,
given me by your love. What should 1
have done if anything had happened
if I had been left alone?”
She touched his shoulder with the
lightest of pressure, yet it was exceed
ingly repugnant to him and he squirmed
in his seat, ftnall} arising
“Nonsense! You’ve plenty of friends,
Nora.” he exclaimed, annoyed.
“Friends?” she responded in a peculiar
inflection.
“Yes.'’ he went on, hurriedly, but still
1 irmly. “You always had before we met,
and will again after—” Even he could
not yet finish the sentence.
‘After -what?” she asked, leaning far
over toward him.
Brancaster took a deep baeath and
nerved himself.
“After you’ve forgotten my existence,”
he said. “Friends who'll amuse you for
the day, entertain you. invite you here
and there, for this race week, or that
season, as I did."
“Did?” she asked, repeating rhe past
tense meaningly.
“Yes,” went on Brancaster, affecting
not to notice. “When you were tired
with town an«l wanted rest and quiet in
the country.”
The woman s voice now became low,
intense, and full of sinister threat.
“Was that quite the spirit of your in
vitations, your letters- your protesta
tions” the asked quietly.
Brancaster shrugged his shoulders.
“Oh. w’ell surely -no midsummer mad
ness is expected to live through an au
tumn,” he said firmly.
The woman was now on her feet, and
1 quite eloso to him. while her eyes fairly
blazed into his.
“What are you trying to tell me, Hu
bert''” she. demanded.
“Th.at that when a man has been as
near to death as I have,” he continued,
“he learns to look at life differently—
more clearly—and- ”
; She broke in with:
“Stuff! ‘When the devil was sick, the
devil a saint would be!’ You’ve a fit of
the dismals—and I don’t wonder- after a
month of prunes and prisma in a place
like this! Come back to the Rievers —
we'll ask some cheery people down to
stay .con’ll bo yourself again.”
”1 am not coming back to rhe Rie
vers,” he said, shortly.
“Eh? Well, it is gloom\ Much Jollier
to meet again in town.
“No,” he said.
“Then where?”
“Nowhere.” he replied. “We can 1 meet
again at all.”
“Cant.’ Why?” she asked, ready for
the clash.
“All that’s over. Nora,” he said “I’m
sorry, but it's best to say it out. I’ve
determined between us this today Is
‘good-bye!’ ”
“Do you forget that you asked me to
be your wife?” she said
That was before— ” he began, and
paused.
Before a pack of lies were published,
in the papers,’ she finished for him: “In
nuendoes-suspicions that I was never
called to answer—that were only half
believed because- because—you know
how defenseless a woman is—nothing
was proved? Did I ever deceive you
about myself” T told you everything-”
“Everything?”
“Yes.”
"I am sorry," he said, "but I do not
lemember the statements J read about
you last week, you did not explain. I
remember no explanation from you."
'You do not remember many things
that happened before your accident—as
Sir Andrew said,” she replied.
Some trifles—certainly,” he responded.
"Trifles!" she exclaimed. "You forgc-l
that you confirmed your promise to me
Hubert, whatever the world says of me.
thinks of me, you were different. I told
you an. y ou knew— and understood
Shan t we walk down the old paths to
gether again .’ Won't you lead me to the
new life, the hope you promised?"
"Nora, forgive, me,” said Brancaster, in
•Jeep agilation, "but. whatever I promised
1 did not then know”
But the woman interrupted savagely:
Chat you'd meet Di Sartoris, a chit of
a girl simpering over a sick man, and fall
in love with her!”
"That nas nothing to do with it" It,
said, resentful, that lauiy Diana s name
had been brought into it.
"It has everything,” she asserted.
"Very well. then, have it your own
way," he said. "If Ive been a fool—l’ll
stop in time. There's the truth—and that;
Is—Good-bye."
Beverley', Note.
I'o the relief of Brancaster a eervgne
entered ahd gave him a note which he
■saw at once had been written by Bev
erley
I was to ask your lordship, to read tv.
at oni-e." the servant said and withdrew
YV ith a muttered apology Brancaster
tore open the envelope, and then, having
partially read the note, looked keenly at
Mrs. D'Aquila.
"About me?” she asked.
"Yes,” he answered.
Pray read It," she said, with a shrug
of indifference.
Brancaster read aloud:
“I do not wish to .seem personally die
courteous to your guest, and I am verx
sensible of the consideration due to the
leellngs of a woman, but I trust her visit
today will be a short one. and I must ask
you to let her understand, with as little
offense as may be, that now you are re
covered, her visits here must cease. I
hoped her own common sense would have
prompted her not to call again, but since
she has you must make it clear that 1
can not receive a ladj' whose exact posi •
tion and relation to yourself I can not ex
plain to my granddaughter Di.”
