One tunny afternoon, the party at the
Rock went for a ramble down the
■bore. , Imogene, swinging her straw
hat on her *rm, walked by the side of
Ralph. Growing far down In a cleft
of a lock, she spied a hunch of purple
flowers. Hhe claped her hand* with
childish glee,
"What lovely blossoms' Such a per
fect shade of purple' How I wish I had
them for my hair! My heliotrope* are
ugly by comparison!” And *he tore
the odious things from her massive
braids and crushed them In her hand.
Mnnfna, too, was looking down at the
coveted flowers. Ralph stepped toward

"Don’t go, Trenholme! It looks dan

again In a moment. The gentlemen
looked at each other Inquiringly. There
wan no way to reach Trenholme, save
by descending the face of the cliff.
Marina took an end of the rope and
made It fast around her waist.
They read her purpose in her eye*

And ahe awcpt away.
CHAPTfSlt III,
HKlft game of i
cheaa over, Tren
holme drew Marina
out upon the we*t
eru piazza, and
from thence to the
path leading to the
cl Ufa. They walked
on allently, aa peo

ed on, her hand In
bla, unheeding that the sweet night bad
changed, and that the cold wind wa*
glooming the aky with black cloud*.
They aat down together on a broken
fragment of rock that aeemed to lean
out, llatenlng to the murmur of the aca.
Trenholme put hla arm around Marina.
"My child," he aald, "you have known
me a long time. Do you truat me?"
She looked up Into hi* face with the
confl fence of a child.
“Yes, Ralph, an 1 truat no other."
"I am glad. Because 1 want you for
my wife. I love yob. I have loved you.
I think, ever since the sea cast you up
at my feet, and now I want you wholly
my own."
She did not reply, only looked at him,
In a little tremulous flutter of wonder,
her innocent heart shining through .
her eyes,
"Marina, I am waiting for you to
speak."
"But. Ralph. I have no name," she
sighed.
"I have given you mine once, now
I offer It to you for all your life!”
"But your mother?”
"My mother Is proud, but she loves
me. And she will love my wife. Ma
rina, answer me, dear.”
"What shall I say?”
"Tell me If you love me - If you trust
me enough to give yourself Into my
keeping?”
His face was bent to hers. She put
her arm timidly around his neck.
"I do love you. Ralph,” she said softly,
"more than all the world! And I have
been so wretched, thinking you cared
for Miss Ireton!"
"My little Marina! .Miss Ireton Is
inag ilftcent, but 1 do not love her. You
are my light. Nothing shall divide us.”
He took her in his arms, and pressed
! his lips to hers.
Just then the storm burst over them.
The thunder crashed, the lightning
. gleamed blood-red uthwart the heav
* ens. Trenholme caught Marina up, and
hounded lightly from rock to rock up
I the circuitous path to the house. Just
across the end of the piazza lay the
fallen form of the old sycamore tree
