An Embarrassing Situation.
It was well Into tho third day whon
wo enmo down Into tho fertile vnlloy
of tho Cowsktn. It had provn nn un
eventful rldo thus far, for wo had mot
with no adventures nnd had observed
little worthy of conslderntlon from a
military standpoint.
While constantly observant of thoso
points regnrdlug which I had been dis
patched, tny ono overmastering
thought during all Hioeo hours was tho
possibility of again meeting with Edith
Urcnnan und proving of some assist
ance to hor Her greeting ol me In
tho Federal hospital had been bo
sweetly gracious, so marked with ton
der sympntlfy, whlln tho memory of
tier words, and oven more of tho look
which accompanied thorn, had bo re
mained with me In encouragement
that I longed to encounter her again.
Uod knows what I hoped for, for I
know well tt must all Inevitably end
in dcypnlr, yet like tho moth t must

we actually drew near to whoro I sup
posed &ho might bo, I felt my earlier
courage fast deserting mo. Nor wns
I furnished with oven the slightest
oxcuso for pressing onr"my orders did
not positively compel mo to proceed,
nnd nothing appeared along tho way
to lead mo to sdpposo that harm of
any kind threntenod that peaceful val

Totally without tho beaten track of
thoso great armies which had battled
so fiercely for tho Shenandoah, It bad
been traversed only by a fow scouting
nnd foraging parties, and so short had
been their stny that oven tho rail
fences remained undisturbed to guard
tho fields, and nowhero did I noto out
ward signs of devastation. It was Vir
ginia as I recalled It in thoso old dnys
of peace and plenty, before civil strife
had sown the land with dead.
What possible excuse, thon, had I
for going thoro7 In my own heart I
knew I had none, or one so poor and
solflsh I scarcely durBt whisper It even
to mysolf; yot I rodo stoadlly on. Im

Irresistibly by fate whichever tho
real causo I know not I would at
least look upon those walls that had
onco sheltered hor, would learn if pos
sible if aho wns yot thero. Thon
well, In tho bondage of my passion 1
hoped for what might happen, ns
every lovor docs.
It must have boon two o'clock; wo
had baited our horses, I remember, an
hour previous; and tho Sergeant had
enjoyed his uoonday siesta beneath
tho shado of a great bush bearing pur
plo blossoms. Tho rond wo had been
travollng slnco early morning wound
In nnd out nmong great trees, and
crossed and rocrossed tho llttlo stream
called tho Cowskln 'until I almost
thought wo had lost our way. Wo mot
with no ono In all tho long day's rid
ing, not oven a stray negro, and in
deed it wns some hours slnco wo had
passed a houso of any kind. Loavlng
tho brook behind us we tolled slowly
up n long hill, nnd nt tho top Bungay,
riding bosldo mo. polntod to tho west
ward. 'Cup," ho said, "thar Is thor Minor
plnco,"
Tho vory sight of It in tho dlstanco
wbb a thrill a great whllo houso
placed well back from tho road nnd
almost hlddon from sight by lino,
largo trees an old-fashioned, big
roomed houso It looked to bo, built
after tho colonial typo, a wide veranda
upon three sides, with lluted columns
to support tho overhanging roof.
"Hain't no signs os for ob I kin seo
of any troublo hnvln' 'currod thar,"
Jed said Blowly, his shrowd gray oyos
roaming over tho peaceful scone,
"homebody tor hum tow, for thor
chlmloy Is a smokln'."
Of courso, now I was there, tno only
sonslblo thing for mo to do would
havo boon to rldo oponly to tho front
door, and thus learn all 1 doslrod. Uut
what man who loves, who la continual
ly swnyod by hopes and foars, by
strength and weakness, ovor docs tho
sonslblo thing? I had cortatnly In
tended doing bo at tho start, but now
my nervo fulled mo. Sho was tho
wlfo of another. I could not confess
I hnd vontured to como to hor In lovo,
nor could I look Into thoso cloar, hon
est, questioning eyes and Ho.
"Haiti" I ordorod. "Sorgonntl"
"1 am hero, Captain."
"Tnko your mon down Into that hol
low yonder, and remain thero until 1
return. Dettor post a sentry on the
hill here,"
"It vlll bo dono, Captain."
"I shall not, probably, he absent
moro than an hour, so don't pcr&lt tho
men t Btray."
"Dot 1b It. Captain. I vlll br rait
dom all ovor."
I rodo down alone Into the thick
woods at tho foot of tho hill, and dis
mounting, tied my horso to a sapling.
Thon on foot 1 struck across tho
Holds, my Intention holng to como in
by the way of tho negro quarters at
tho renr, In hopo of meeting some ono
from whom 1 might luqulro relative
to tho great houso and Its Inmatos.
It was n slight upward trend or
land I had to trnvorso, and although
tho houso was a most sightly object
and stood upon tho vory summit of tho
olovntlon, yot so surrounded was it
with trees, both fruit and ornamental,
I was enabled to inako but little or Its
situation until I approached tho out
ahulldlugs. I mot with no ono, nor
could 1 porcolvo any negroes about
tho slave quarters. Yet tho place did
not hear tho appearance of dosertlon.
There wore horses In tho stablo, n cat
wiib curled up on ono of tho cabin
door steps, and smoko continued to
pour In a dull yollow cloud from tho
kitchen chimney. Altogothor thero
was much In tho situation to pirczlo
over, and I no longer regretted that I
had exercised somo caution In my ap
proach Tho orchard, with tho ronuuna or a
garden, lay botweon tho houso and tho
stnhl6, protected by a low ronco ot
whitened plckots. So far as I could
observe. It contained no occupant, and

right of mo was an oxtenslvo grapo
arbor, completely covered with vinos,
tho fresh green leaves forming a de
lightful contrast to tho deep blue sky
boyond. As 1 came opposlto an open
ing leading Into this nrbor I suddenly
caught tho flutter of drapery nnd
stopped Instantly, my heart throbbing
ltko a frightened girl's. It was qulto
dark beneath tho vino shudow, and 1
could mnko out no moro than that a
woman stood there, her back toward
mo, buBlcd at somo task. Possibly
sho felt my presence, for nil at onco
sho glanced around, and upon per
ceiving mo gavo vent to a quick ex
clamation of terror.
"Pardon mo," I said hastily, and re
moving my hat, "but you havo nothing
to fear."
Thero was a moment's hesitancy on
her part, and I know I was being scru
tinized by a pair of bright eyes.
"Surely," said a familiar voice, "I
cannot ho mistaken you nro Captain
Wayno,"
Beforo I could oven answer sho
stepped forth from her partlnl con
cealment nnd ndvanccd toward mo
with cordially extended hands. It was
Cella Minor.
"Well, of all mon!" sho cried gay-
ly, hor dark oyos smiling a most kind
ly welcome. "And Edith and I wero

speaking about you only yesterday.
That s, I was, for really I do not re
call now that Edith mado any remark
apropos of tho subject. You havo no
idea, Captain Wayno, what a hero 1
have mado you out to be. It would
make you positively vain If I should
confess; why, Arthur has actually bo
como so Jealous that ho has almost
forbidden me oven to mention your
namo In his presence So whon I
wnnt to talk about you I am compelled
to go to Edith. Sho hasn't power to
stop mo, you know, but I'm suro I
must boro her awfully. And then to
think thnt whon you stood there Just
now, and I saw your gray uniform, I
actually thought tho guerillas had
come. My heart beats so now I can
Hardly talk. But how palo and hag
gard you look Is It that horrible
wound which troubles you still?
"I have been discharged from the
liospltal only a short tlmo," I nn
BWorod, as sho paused to tako breath.
"Indeed, this Is my first military sorv
Ice for several months, yet I nm feol
ing qulto strong again. Mrs. Brennan,
thon, Is still with you?"
"Oh, yes; wo havo been hero all
winter long. It has been so dull, for
really nothing has happoned, and tho
valley Is qulto dovold of Inhabitants
oven tho nogrocB havo gono hunting
freedom. But Major Urennan and Ar
thur nro to bo horo this afternoon,
nnd somotlmo tonight wo aro all or
us going away togothor,"
Eager as I was to moot Bronunn, I
had no deBlro that wo should meet In
tho presonco of his wifi-. Bettor, Inr
hotter, would It be for the to lcavo at
onco nnd without oven seeing hor,
"You Bay you aro about to depart?"
I asked, determined to learn all pos
sible regarding their plans. "Do you
go North?"
"Yes, to Bnltlmoro and Washington.
Tho guorlllns nro becoming so despor
nto In this nolghborhooJ that wo aro
actually afraid to remain hero longer
They attacked tho Uuyior plantation,
only ton miles from horo, two wooks
ago, killed old Mr. Cuyjcr, turned his
t
wifo out partially dressed In tho mid
dle of tho night, looted tho houso of
everything It contained of value, nnd
then set It on flro. You see wo havo
no men folks hero, except two ne
groes, who havo clung to us becadso
tey wore bo aged thoy wero afraid
to lcavo just mamma', Edith, my old
nurso, and myself. It seems so lonely,
nnd Major Urennan and Arthur both
insist It is no longer safe. So they
are coming with n cavalry escort to
tnko us all North. I am suro wo shall
havo a splendid tlmo."
"Vou havo experienced no trouble,,
thon, thus far?"
"Oh, nono nt all wo have not ovon
been bothered by scouting parties. Ob,
1 do not mean you; you aro no bother.
But yesterday thero was a horrlblo
man hero; ho camo to tho kltchon
door, and asked all sorts ot Impudent
questions. Mrs. Bungay actually had
to threaten him with a gun beforo ho
would leave."
"Is Maria Bungay hero, thon?"
"Why certainly; do you know her?
Isn't sho a delightful old dear just
as good as a man."
"Her huaband Is with my party."
"Jed really? Why, do you know,
Maria has got it Into hor head that
bo had run away from her. 1 should
so lovo to witness their meeting; it
would bo most Interesting. But you
must come into the house, Captain
Wayno; Edith will bo overjoyed to seo
you again, although you know sho is
nover demonstrative, as I am. It must
bo awfully nico to bo always cool nnd
calm, don't you think?"
Determined that I would not bo
tempted, I yet hesitated, and my vi
vacious companion too everything
for granted at once.
"Oh, beforo wo go In, won't you do
me a favor?", sho asked. "But of
courso you will. I was trying to tlo
this grapovlno into place when you
surprised me, but I could not hold on
with ono hand and tie with tho other.
Is Captain Wayne."
See what I mean?" And placing ono
slender foot upon, a slat ot tho trellis
sho lifted horsolf up until sho could
barely reach tho refractory branch.
"Now," sho said, smiling down upon
mo, "pleaso Just hold mo hero for a
moment until 1 securo this end."
My hand was scarcely upon hor in
support when tho slender slat snapped
beneath her weight. As she foil 1
catfght her with both arms. For a
moment sho lay, panting and startlod
on my breast; then, as with a llttlo
laugh she dlsongagod herself from tny
embrace, wo stood thero hand In band
and face to faco with Edith Brennan.
Shall I ovor forget tbo look within
hor eyes? How plainly I saw it, al
though she stood half hidden beneath
tho shadow of tho vines. Amazement,
Incredulity, scorn wero expressed
there, yet evon as I marked them all
became m or god Into proud uncon
sciousness. Sho would have turned
away without a word, but my com
panion stopped hor.
"Edith," she cried ongerly, "do you
not seo? This Is Captain Wayne."
Sho turned toward mo and slightly
Incllnod hor head.
"I recognized Captain Wayne," was
hor calm answor, "nnd regret greatly
having Intruded upon him. It was en
tirely unintentional, and I havo no
doslro to remain."
I could not havo spoken at that ino-J
mont to savo my life. It fairly Btunned
mo to realize tho construction she so
plainly placed upon tho scono Just
enacted. Not so tho girl nt my Bide.
Her cheeks flushed with Indignation,
and hor audacity gavo hor speech
which mado matters even worso than
before.
"You aro exceedingly free with your
criticisms, Edith," sho exclaimed
sharply, ns tho latter turned her back
upon us. "Perhaps It would bo as well
for you llrst to ascertain tho truth."
"You wholly mistake," was tho calm
reply, "1 havo not presumed to criti
cise. Why should I? It Is mit u mat
tor which interests mo In tho least.
1 p'rosurao you havo no furthor ob-
jectlon to my returning to tho Louse?"
Sho did not bo much as deign to
look again nt cither of us, but as she
moved slowly out of sight Miss Minor
turnod and looked into my faco with
questioning eyes. What sho may
havo read thero I know not, but sho
sank back upon a bench and burst
into a morry peal of laughter.
"Isn't it perfectly 'ridiculous!" she
cried, as Boon as sho was nblo to
speak. "Only I do hopo sho won't tell
Arthur."
CHAPTER XXVIII.
We Capture a Courier.
Tho girl's light burst of laughter
aroused me thoroughly to a sense ot
our situation. .
"You seem to derive much amuse
ment from a condition of affairs al
most Intolerable to mo," I said bitter
ly. "I havo always valuod most highly
tho friendship ot Mrs. Bronnnn, but
this unfortunate occurrence will doubt
less end it."
Sho glanced up at mo, hor long
lashes wet, but hor dark eyes spark
ling with mischief.
"Oh, Bho won't caro so far ns you
aro concerned," sho exclaimed Indif
ferently. "But 1 suppose she will
think 1 am perfectly horrid. Well, I
don't caro If sho docs; she might
havo waited and learned tho truth
llrst. Wasn't her faco a study? And
how shall I over explain to Arthur so
that ho will understand? I'm suro I
havo got tho worst of it, . Oh, Captain
Wayne, Is my hair all ruffled up? 1
know I look llko a fright You must
oomo In now, and wo will explain to
Mrs. Brennan tho whole matter. Sho
cannot holp believing us both, while
1 know sho would bo bo cold and
proud to mo alono."
I shook my head decisively. Per
haps It was better ended so; at least
1 possessed no courage just them to
face her indignation. Sho might but
deem we had concocted our explana
tion, and would vory likely receive It
with nil the scorn she felt It desorved.
Besides, It was clear thero was noth
ing I could do to aid them. I should
bo now morely an unwelcome intru
der. An escort was to bo there short
ly to convoy thom northward, and for
mo to bo found In their company by
Brennan would only inflamo blm and
add greatly to tho embarrassment ot
his wife's position. Much as I might
long for Immediate vindication In her
sight, tho plain duty of true lovo was
to depart at onco, and permit tlmo to
straighten out the tangle.
"You must pardon me," I hastened
to say, standing hat in hand before
her, "but it would not bo best for
mo to intrude upon Mrs. Brennan aft
er her lato reception. I merely halt
ed horo In order to assure mysolf ot
your presence and safety. My men
aro evon now waiting for me a fow
hundred yards away."
"But I wish you to meet Arthur."
"Oh. I think not. Miss Minor. I feel
warm friendship for Lieutenant Caton,
but wo wear different uniforms, serve
undor different flags, and a meeting
hero, both with armed forces behind
us, would naturally havo to bo a hos
tile one. However tho Lieutenant and
1 might consent to a temporary truco,
his superior officer. Major Brennan,
would not likely provo of the same
mind." 4
"Thon you really must go?"
"UnlosB you specially desire tw wit
ness a cavalry skirmish In your front
dooryard, I certainly consider It best,"
and I hold out my hand. "Suroly wo
part as friends, and I may hope that
you will Intercede in my behalf with
Mrs. Brennan?"
She rose up Impulsively.
"How ridiculous; how supremely ri
diculous! Why, of courso I will,
though I don't suppose Edith really
cares very much, but sho believed It
would bo highly proper to bo shocked.
I don't think she likes you so very
well anyway, Captain Wnyne. for she
never will talk about you."
With these cheering words ringing
In my oars, and feeling thoroughly de
feated In every cherished hope, 1
strode savagely down the long hill and
mountod my horso. How roughly for
tuno had Buffeted me, to be sure, and
how extremely small the Inspiration
left. Well, perhaps I desorved it for
ovor permitting mysolf to lovo ono
whom I knew to bo the wife ot an
other. Doubtless she had seized upon
this slight pretext to be rid ot mo,
ami was already rejoicing over its
ensy accomplishment.
In my agitation 1 forgot entirely tho
presence of Maria Bungay at tho
house, and ordering my men Into sad
dlo prepared for doparturo without
giving n thought to the little fellow
and his domestic troubles. I chose
tho road leading toward tho north
west, for although I had not asked the
question 1 conceived It highly probable
that Bronnan and his party would ride
from tho Federal calvary quarters nt
Colter's Church, and I had no desire
to meet thom. They were upon an
errand of mercy of fnr greater Impor
tance than my rovengo.
As wo swung nlong through tbe
heavily timbered land fringing our
road. Bungay pressed hlB mulo Into a
trot and finally succeeded in ranging
up at my side. Even In my disturbed

would not wound him by laughing
