Not a day nasses that ho does not visit the chapel tovvnich ho aio no possesses the key , and remains there often an hour in silent communion with the belo\cd dead. Fresh cut violets which lie strewn over cold stone were called on the hillside and placed there not an hour ago by the man who passes In tlio world ns being of blood nud lion. I turn away from the sad spot and , following the course ot a stream full of trout , approach oncu again the man sion through thu forest. About two hundred yards from the castle , seated on n bench , I perceived the object ot my visit nnd rcall/cd on llio moment how sad I should have been to have tinned my back upon Grcsian with out Imvingcaughta glimpse of its venerable master.
