"Things began to mend with him after
this lud business prospered, and before
, eix year pas.ed away, speculation h'ad
o enriched him that he found
toe possessor of millions. Retiring then
so private life, he bought this place in
Yonkers, in order to enjoy himself in a
quiet way. But ill health visited him; a
troke of paralysis rendered one side
comparatively helpless, while the asthma,
which he had been subject to for many
years, increased to an alarming extent.
"During all this time one wild wish
has been his, and that was to solve the
mystery of his brother's fate, and so
clear his own good name of the unjust
' suspicions that still clung to it. Lately
'this wish has become uncontrollable. He
prays that he may not die with this stain
Mill clinging to his name. He has there-1
. fore decided to ask you to undertake the
. ease for him,"
"But," here interrupted the amazed
listener, "there must be some mistake. I
. tm no lawyer, simply a physician; and
s such, what can I do?"
"Everything. We think fur more than
lawyer," replied Mr. Gray. "Of course,
you would have to sell your practice in
New York and settle in England. There
you, as a growing physician, would gain
, the confidence of the people. You would
be admitted to places where no one else
would, and could study the characters of
' rich and poor.
"Sir Reginald Glendenning married,
two yean after the disappearance of his
brother, the same lady who was to have
been hie bride. Miss Constance, and they

probably be called to attend their fam

he met her.
"Good morning, my son," she said,
pleasantly, on his entrance; "so you have
returned in safety!"
"I have; and in a pecuniary point of
view, the visit brought a great change for
the better. From this day 1 am to re
eeive five thousand dollars annually, as
i nave entered into an engagement to
mat effect."
"My dear Earle, yon do surprise me!"
mis engagement obliges me to sell
my practice, and sail in about one week
to settle in a country village in England
"Oh, Earle!"
Mother, dear, you shall have your
choice now; whether to accompany me at
once, or allow me to board you at your
owners to this city for a few months,
until l survey the ground, and fully es-
taDllsa myself. In case you remain, I
can any time come for you, after I see
whether It will be a permanent home.
Perhaps I stall not care to remain after
a few month."
"Earle, 1 dread the ocean, and I shall
dread a foreign home. Perhaps I had
best remain, as yoa say."
By the close of the week Mrs. Elf en
stein was comfortably established in a
room furnished with her own familiar
omngs, while the son succeeded in dis
posing of the rest, as well as his prac
tice, and had engaged a paaaage on the
Oceanica.
A Short visit was then nsiit tn fr
Bappelye, who gave him full directions
bow to proceed, and many minute details
of the place and inhabitanta. Promising
to write weekly, keeping him informed

There was a long pause, during which

grow a iihade paler under his eager gaze.
At length the silence was broken by Dr.

tone:

not a matter of surprise that a feeling of
weariness and almost desolation crept
over him. He turned away from his post
of observation on deck and sought the
more lively saloon. Taking a book from
one of the tables, he affected to read.
Presently his eyes rested npon a middle-aged
lady, who seemed in feeble
health, as she leaned back languidly in
an ea--y chair, while her pale face and
attenuated figure spoke of prolonged suf
ferings, but a patient spirit. Her dark
eyes continually wandered towards the
door.
Dr. KJfcnstein looked at her with in
creasing interest.
Suddenly a brighter look floated into
the lady's eyes. Following the range of
her vision, he was surprised at beholding
the most perfect picture of youthful
beauty he had ever yet beheld. It was
all embodied in the person of a vonnir
girl of about twenty tummers, who smil
ingly drew near. She spoke, and the
melodious accents of her voice filled.
