terrify you into giving up to hnn-cercam papers, letter* 'of my mothers bearing reference to property ohe wished me tolave and which should go to my son it 1 s ,*r had one. I swore that he should never have them, sure that if he once hold them in hi* possession he would use thorn as an introduction to all your friend* and relatives. His intimacy with my poor son Trevor, with whom he "fell in in America, and to whom Trevor, in dying, confuted all his papers, opened the way for the fraud which he'afterwards practised. "I knew where those papers were Kept— yon ant) I, fnthar, each had a key to that c-b'n-t Mine I had hidden in my usual reckless fashion in the framework enclosing my portrait as a boy, still hanging in the picture gallery here. If 1 oonld gate perrawsion to see the house I knew I could manage to do the rest. And so I did-hid myself m the old turret till nightfall, crept down to your srndy at 2 in ths morning, and found th» lp-t-rs tied up with the same ribbon— fcW'b»n—as that which had bound them toother on the day years ago when you had caillad rao into youv room and showed me whsre you had placed them. '• Dear Flip! she will be glad to learn that her father ««i not, in his last days, as bad as she supposed." "My poor dear Richard," ejaculated Lord Miiwortb, softly. " 1 brought her tip to ha as reckless as myself," continued her father, in sad retrosweet • " and all her troubles were caused by her early wilfnlness. When she followed me on one occasion, which I can hardly bear to think of now, she little knew as she hurried to the station in the early morning that the woman she passer], and who asked her the way was the wifa of the very man who, long year's afterwards, personated my poor son '""if'seems that Klip's agitation, coupled with her beauty, attracted the woman s attention, and that the latter never lost the idea that there was some secret connected with this beautiful girl's evident perturbation, and that this slight incident was remembered, and helped to fix the idea in the woman's mind and in that of her husband, that there was something concealed connected with her early hurried walk and half disguise, and all this helped them tc trace her afterwards. Poor Flip's We We not have had much peace but for that rms creant having been consigned for years to i PI» Do' not dwell on these things, Eichard,' said the old man. " Flip has happy yean before her yet"

And in a room above another scene was

snch a crowd lined the Vicarage garden aud hail, as that collected to sen the Ticar'a daughter go off on her honeymoon r.rip. There had been a little gay speech-making when the cake had been cut, and the. bridegroom's brief farewell made the merriment increase, and caused a good deal of clapping of hands. " It is hardly worth while to say goodbye " said he, looking round with his handsome, radiant face on those assembled. "We shall soon bo back again among you; a month slips by so easily. It was hardly worth while for my dear grandfather '— smiling at the old nobleman, who had come over to bo present at Tessie's bridal—" to have given us so nice a house near Milworth, an wa shall hardly have time to livo in it, we shall be co often at the Vicarage and at the Towers." " But I must end my short lsave-caking, or we shall miss our train and boat—so I will only add" —drawing Teasie's hand fondly on his arm—"that I am now in the happy position of my bride's father—like him I can now style myself— "« The Luckiest Man in the World. 1'"

Slowly over the pretty Vicarage house, some six or seven hours later, the great rouad moon came sailing up the r.ky, flooding the earth with its glory. In the seen tod summer air two figures were seated in the pkaeant garden, in happiest communion with each other, and that garden was, indeed, a lovely retreat. Through the silence, with Bndden harmony, trilled, all at once, the song of a nightingale. " Hark! This [a the first time that sweet. bird has made music for us this year," : breathed Geoffry, in tender mood; "it is to celebrate our Tessie's bridal." " Most certainly, dearest," responded Flip, fondly, and as she looked upwards at the brilliant moon, her face, touched with the ' white light-, shovred nothing bafc heart-joy 1 and deep contentment. There was no single 1 cloud upon her life's horizon; Geoffry at ' length knew all, all, and she was yet; dearer 1 to him than bsfore. ' " I have something to say to you, Geoff," [ she added, with a beautiful smile, which irradiated her face with youthful beauty: "it seems that you have supposed all these I years that you 'have the monopoly of good luck; bu<; it is not so 1 From this hour be ' well assured that if you account yourself 1 ' The luckiest man in the world,' I am the , luckiest woman !
