CHAPTER IV.
We took the Xantlppe home tho
Indoniptahlo went to tho bottom of tho
Hay of Illsrny but before our prize
money was settled up we were off
again; Sir Peter dearly loved cruising
In blue water. It was near two yeurs
before we got back to England to
spend that prize-money; for, except
the captain and Mr. Huxton and some
of tho married ofllcers, I know of no
one who saved any. Sir Peter, I un
derstood afterwnrd, spent much of his
In a diamond necklace and tiara for
Lady Hawkshaw, In which ho was
most egregiously cheated by a Portu
guese money lender, and the balance
ho put Into a scheme for acclimating
elophants in England, which was to
make him as rich as Croesus; but he
lost 1,000 on tho venture, besides
his prize-money. In those two years
I grew more and more fond of Giles
Vernon. We generally contrived to
have our watch together, and we were
intimate ns only shipmates could be.
He talked much of what he meant to
do when lie got ashore with money to
spend, and assured me he had never
had above 20 of his own In his life.
In the course of many nights spent
In standing watch together, when the
old AJax was sailing like a witch
for sho was a capital sailer at that
time he told mo much about his early
youth, and I confided to him the story
of rtetty Green. Giles' career had
been the common one of the younger
branches of a good family. His father
had been a clergyman, and, dying, loft
several daughters, who married re
spectably, and this one son, who was
put In the sea service very young. At
that time several lives stood between
Giles and tho title and estates of Sir
Thomas Vernon, and other lives stood
between Giles and Overton; but those
had passed away, leaving theso two
distant kinsmen as heirs to n man that
seemed rightfully to have earned his
title of "wicked Sir Thomas." I asked
Giles If he knew why Sir Thomas, who
so cordially hated his heirs, had never
married. Giles replied that Sir
Thomas showed no Inclination to mar
ry until he was near 40. Then his
reputation was so well established
that he was generally looked askant
upon; his character for truth was bad
and at cards was worse. Put he had
Induced a lady of rank and wealth to
becomo engneed to bo married to lilm
His Treatment of her was so Infamous
that hor whole family hnd declared
war against him, and had succeeded in
breaking off several very desirable at
llances he would havo liked to make,
Of course a man of his rank and
wealth could find some woman alas
to take him; but Sir Thomas was
bent on money, wfth an Inclination to
ward rank, and was the last man on
earth to marry unless he hnd a sub
stantial Inducement; and several more
years had passed without his being
able to effect the sort of marriage he
desired. Meanwhile, his health hnd
broken down, and be was now a shat
tered man and prey for the doctors
All this was very Interesting to me,
especially as Sir Thomas' two heirs
would one day have the experience of
shooting at each other, and possibly
deciding the matter of heirship by the
elimination of one or the other from
tho question.
We both got promotion, of course,
and that brought us Into the gunroom;
but we were as Intimate there as in
our reefer days In tho cockpit. On n
glorious October morning In 1TH9, our
anchor kissed the ground in Ports
mouth harbor.
When we reached Portsmouth, the
news of our good fortune had pre
ceded us, and we were welcomed with
open arniB by men, women, and chil
dren especially the women. All the
prize-money brought back by any sin
gle ship during the war was Inslg
nlflcant compared with ours. The
men were seized with a kind of mud
ness for spending their money. The
spectacle of an ordinary scamun pn
radlng the streets of Portsmouth
with a gold-laced hat, a gold headed
stick, and watches and Jewelry hung
all over him was common enough, and
ho was sure to bo an AJu luau. Sad
lo say, the pimps and the worst class
if men and women soon got the money
away from our poor fellows.
The officers, in their way, t. ere but
little behind tho men In their lavish
ness. Champagni) was their common
drink, and several of thorn Invested In
conches! the last thing they would
ever have a chance of using.
Giles Vernon, although the most
wasteful and profuse man I ever saw,
deKired to spend his money In I-ondon,
Portsmouth being tx) small a theater
for him. Hut the pressing affair of the
satisfaction ho owned ('apt. Overton
had to be settled. After much hard
thinking, Giles came to mo on tho day
after wo reached Portsmouth, and
said:
"Dicky boy, jcad this letter and give
me your opinion of It."
This was the letter:
II. M. 8. AJax, May 17. 1799.
"dipt. I'lilllp Overton:
"I enr Kir; This is lo Inform you that I
have reached Portsmouth, after a very
successful cruise In the AJax, when we
took the Indoiuptahle and Ximtlppe and a
lai'Kn sum In specie. My shalr Is consider

saw. much less liMidlecl, in my life. I
would like a month In 1mdon to spend
this money before offerlnK my rarkimg

the month morn or less will be of little
account; nrul If I full, I shall miss the
finest chance of seeltm the world I ever
had In ruy life. I think, sir, with dillili'iice
1 say It, that my record In the AJax Is

would take It us a personal favor If you
would put It off to this day month, when

"Obedient servant,
r.II.ES VEUNQN."
I pointed out to Giles that, although
tho tone of tho letter was quite cor
rect, the writing and spelling were
scarce up to the atandurd I was more
bookish than Giles. Hut he replied
with some heat:
"Who, while reading the communi
cation of a gentleman, will be so base
ns to sneer nt the grammar or spell
ing?" So the letter went ns it was,
and in reply came n very handsome,
well-expressed letter from Capt. Over
ton, not only agreeing to postpone It a
month, but for six weeks, which
pleased Giles mightily. I wish to say,
although Giles was inexpert with the
pen, he had no lack of either polish or
ideus, mid was ns fine an officer as
ever walked tho deck.
Tho mutter with Overton finally set

and I started for London, as happy as
With Her Were Daphne and the Glo
rious Lady Arabella.
two youngsters could be, with liberty
nnd 2,001) apiece to spend, for I nc
knowledge that I had no more
thought of snvlng than Giles. We
took a chaise nnd four to London
no stage-coach for us! nnd reached
there In a day. We had planned to
take the finest rooms at Mlvart's hotel,
but fate and Lady Hawkshaw pre
vented me from enjoying them except
for the first night of our arrival. Next
morning on presenting myself nt the
admiralty to ask for letters never
dreaming I should have any I re
ceived one from Sir Peter Hawkshaw,
which read:
"(irand-Nophew.-My Lady Hawkshaw
desires that you will come and bring
your money with you to our house In
Herkeley Square, and remain there.
"Yours, etc.,
"P. HAWKSHAW. C. II."
Great was my distress when I got
this letter, as I foresaw there woujd
not be much chance under Lady
Hawkshaw'g eagle eye of seeing the
kind of life 1 wished to soe. And 1
was obliged to go, for Sir Peter was
the only person on earth likely to in
terest himself nt the admiralty for
me; and I might stay and wither on
shore while others mure fortunate got
ships, if I antagonized him. And when
Lady Hawkshaw commanded there
was but one thing to do, and that was
lo obey.
So, with a heavy heart, I took my
self and my portmanteau and, In n
canvas bag, my 2,000 guineas to tho
admiral's grout flue house in Herkeley
Square. My parting with Giles was
melancholy enough; for, with the
womanish Jealousy of a boy, 1 was un
happy to think he would be enjoying
htnisei; with some one else, while I
was suffering the hardship of having
my money taken care of for me.
Giles had no more forgotten the
Lady Arabella than I had, and, on
reading this note, exclaimed:
"Zounds! I wish Peter nnd Polly
hnd Bent for mo to stay In Herkeley
Square, with that divine creature un
der tho same roof. Do you think,
Dicky, we could exchange Identities,
so to speak?" Hut on my reminding
him that I July Hawkshaw had de
manded my prize-money, and would
certainly get it, his nrdor to stand In
my shoes somewhat abated.
When I reached Sir Peter's house
about noon, the same tall and Insolent
footman that I had seen on my first
visit opened the door for me. Lady
Hawkshaw, wearing the same black
velvet gown and the identical feath
ers, received me, and sitting with her
were Daphne Carmlchael and the
glorious, the beautiful, the enchanting
Lady Arabella Stormont.
If I had fallen madly In love with
her when I was but 14, and had only
seven and sixpence, one may imagine
where I found myself when I was near
17, and had 2,000 in a bag in my
hands. Lady Hawkshaw's greeting
was stiff, but far from unkind; and
she introduced me to the young ladles,
who curtsied most beautifully to me,
and, I may say, looked at me not un
kindly. "Is that your prize-money In that
bag, Richard?" asked Lady Hawk
shaw, Immediately.
I replied it was.
"Jeatnes," she said, "go and make
my compliments to Sir Peter, and say
to him that If he has nothing better to
do, I would bo glad to Bee him at once.
And order the coach."
James departed.
I sat In adoring silence, oblivious of
Daphne, but gazing at Lady Arabella
until sho exclaimed, pettishly:
"La! Have 1 got a cross-eye or a
crooked nose, Mr. Richard, that you
can't tako your eyes off me?"
"You have neither," I replied, gal
lantly. "And my name is not Mr. Rich
ard, but Mr. Glyn, at your ladyship's
service."
"Arabella," said Lady Hawkshaw
in a voice of thunder, "bo more par
ticular In your address to young gen
tlemen." "Oh, yes, ma'am!" pertly replied
Lady Arabella. "Hut such very young
gentlemen, like Mr. Glyn, or Mr. Thin,
or whatever his name may be, are al
ways difficult to please in the way of
address. If you are familiar, they are
affronted; and if you are reserved,
they think you are making game of
them."
By this speech I discovered that al
though Lady Hawkshaw might rule
her world, terrorize Sir Peter, and
make the lords of the admiralty her
humble servitors, she had one rebel In
the camp, und that was Lady Arabella
Stormont. I saw that her remarks dis
pleased Lady Hawkshaw, but she en
dured them In silence. Who, though,
would not endure anything from that
cherub mouth and those dazzling
eyes?
Sir Peter now appeared nnd greeted
me.
"Sir Peter," said Lady Hawkshaw In
her usual authoritative manner, "you
will go in the coach with me to the
bank, with Richard Glyn, to deposit
his money. You will be ready In ten
minutes, when the coach will be at
the door."
"I will go with you, madam," replied
Sir Peter; "but I shall order my horse,
and ride a horseback, because I do not
like riding in that damned stuffy
coach. And, besides, when you and
your feathers get In, there Is no room
for me."
"Yon ride ahorseback!" sniffed
Lady Hawkshaw. "Kven the grooms
and stable boys laugh at you. You are
always talking some sea nonsense
about keeping the horse's head to the
wind, nnd yawing and luffing and
bowsing at the bowline, and what not;
and, besides, I am afraid to trust you
since Ilrown Jane threw you In the
park."
It ended by Sir Peter's going In tho
conch, where the little man lay back
in the corner, nearly smothered by
Lady Hawkshaw's voluminous robe,
nnd pishing and pshawing the whole
way.
: Hut I was quite happy albeit I was
the victim of Lady Hawkshaw in hav
lug my money kept for mo for on the
seat beside me was Lady Arabella,
who chose to go with us. She made
much game of me, but I had the spirit
to answer her back. After placing the
money, we took an airing in the park,
and then returned to dinner at five
o'clock. I neither knew nor cared
what became of Daphne; for was I not
with the adored Lady Arabella?
That night Lady Hawkshaw was at
home, and I had my flrBt experience of
a London rout. The card tables were
set on the lower floor, for although
Lady Hawkshaw hated cards, yet It
was commonly said that no one could
entertain company In Ixmdon without
them.

of his frivolous friends, he picked up
"The Wings of the Dove" and disap
peared into its pages.
Two weeks later ho was thinner, but
still at it, when one of the aforo-men-tloned

Interest.
"Say," he observed, "is The Wings
of the Dove' a collection of short
stories or one long story?"

"One darned long story," he replied,

An earnest plea was made by Attor

to a client who hnd entered a plea of

"Your honor, I will say frankly,"
said Mr. Pettljohn in closing, "that If I
