CHAPTER IV. , . '
Eight months have passed since the
close of the last chapter, ana things
are much as they were. The love of
occupation and the occupation of love
have combined to make the time pass
very happily and veryswlftly. About
once a month I have visited Chisel-
burst and stayed over Sunday. Edith,
my Edith (of whom wore presently).
ond I have learned to love each other
intensely, more so than any Quantity
of type can convey, and life without
hor now would be very dreary and
not worth the IIvIiir. ' -
Of Miss Milne I have seen nothing.
Her shop was closed the week after I
last saw her there, and although vari
ous reports have come to me of her
terrible goings-on, I have myself seen
nothing of her.
One Monday evening I was sitting
after dinner, readng the evening pa
per, when Ann came in with a note:
a child was waiting in the hall, she
said, to take me somewhere. The note
was from the wife of our clergyman.
1 opened It and read as follows
"Dear Dr. Risby I am sure that nn.
der the circumstances you will forgive
me for troubling you. I have this
morning been sent for to the most
wretched house Imaginable, and foum
there a girl in the most titter state of
poverty, and in need of your help
you will come, and I am sure you will,
the bearer of this letter will show you
the place. Believe me. very truly
yours, E. N. CARPENTER.
As hurriedly as I could, I collected
in my bag the few things I might
need, and putting on my coat the
nljiht was bitterly cold I joined my
little guide In the ball.
As we hurried along the pavement
I tried to learn something of the case
was going to see, but the girl knew
nothing of It She had. she told me.
been hailed by the lady while walking
down Arlington street, and requested
to bring me the letter and show me
the house.
Before the door of the most miser
able of all the miserable tenements
of that wretched quarter my guide
stopped. "It's up them steps, sir," she
said, and up them I went as rapidly
as their rickety condition would al
low.
On landing at the very top I found
the lady who had sent for me. "I am
afraid," she said, "I have brought you
to a very terrible place, but you must
forgive me; I could do nothing else.
But come; will you follow me?
She led me Into a room, the stench,
the misery and the absolute squallor
of which no one but those who have
visited the slums of London can pos
sibly Imagine. I walked to the win
dow, and from the broken panes pulled
out the pieces of carpet, old linen
and newspapers that did duty for glass.
With the little light thus obtained
saw In one corner a mass of straw,
and over and about It soiled under
clothing and old dresses. This was
evidently the bed, for under the clo
thing I could distinctly discern the
angular outlines of a woman's form
On the back of the door other dresses
were hung, but these were of a very
different character; they were gaudy,
If not expensive, and carried a world
of meaning to me I recognized by
them not only the kind of room I
was in, but also the knd of patient I
had to deal with. Mrs Carpenter had
stood perfectly still during the few
seconds I had been taking stock of
the place. - "I think," she said, "we
ought to be doing something," and
then added, significantly, "there are
two lives involved."
Two?" I asked. "Where's the
other?"
She pointed to another bundle in
the other corner of the room, and
walkng over to it, I threw off a piece
of sacking, and exposed to view an in
fant that, though but a few hours old.
had the wrinkled skin, troubled ex
pression and monkey-like cast of fea
tures peculiar to some of the aged
poor. Its limbs were about the thlc"i
ness of an ordinary walking stick, its
fingers long and talon-like, and as the
cold air from the broken window
awakened It, It began to emit the cry
characteristic of its order, a far-awsy,
Dining, half-whistle kind of cry, that
contrasts so markedly with the hearty
shriek of a newly born healthy child.
With natural tenderness Mrs. Carpen
ter covered up the poor little creature,
and I, walking over to the mother,
knelt down beside her bed and spoke
to her. It was the first time I had
raised my voice above a whisper, and
at the sound of It the Inanimate pic
ture of starvation, with an evidence of
strength which astonished me, threw
her bead around and stared at me.
If her body Bhowed evidence of star
vation, her face did so In a thousand
fold greater degree; her cheek bones
and the angles of her lower Jaw were
standing out In painful prominence,
and her eyes, always larger than hu
man, were now perfectly startling in
their size and brilliancy. It was only
for a .moment she stared at me, then
turning back to the wall, she hurled
her face In the clothing.
"who sent for you? who told you
to come? she asked, loudly. "Go,"
and then more loudly still "go at once,
and leave me!"
"Of course, you know I shall not go,
Miss Milne," for it was none other
than she. "I shall not leave you until
I have seen you have some food and
are made comfortable." .
"I'll take nothing you offer me."
And then she groaned again, "Go. go,
both of you, and leave us to die; that's
all we want, and why can't we have
itr
Mrs. Carpenter walked to the bed
side, and taking In hers the thin hand
of the patient, in the kindest tones
Implored of her not to talk like that,
but to let us do what we could for
her.
But I don't want you here; I didn't
tend for you. Why can't people mind
their own business?"
1 beckoned Mrs. Carpenter to Join
rae on the landing outside.
What is to be done?" she said.
"Do you know her,. Dr. Rigby?"
I know her very well," I replied;
in fact, I may almost say I owe ray
life to her. She nursed me through a
long Illness."
"But what has happened to her? Is
he mad?"
"No, I don't think she is mad, and T
don't think she Is sane. But I will tell
you more about her some day. We
ought to be seeing now what we can
do for her that Is, If anything can be
done; but you will find It exceedingly
dfflcult; bringing her food Is a simple
thing, but making her take it Is a
different one.I warn you that girl will
no everything in the world to starve
herself and her Infant. It's very un
fortunate that I should have been sent
for; of course- you know I like to
come, but I am certain you will do
nothing vita hnr with me in the
room; the girl has a great horror of
my seeing her in this condition. DUIn'
you see how Bhe drew away from
me?" . , -
"Yea, I "noticed it and wondered
what it meant."
"If you will allow me to suggest.
think the wisest course to follow
would be this: I will leave her she
needs no niedlcal care and send you
at once as good a nurse as I can get
about here, some food and wine from
my house, and a few old things in the
way of clothing.
Tq this suggestion Mrs. Carpenter
assented, and on my road home I
railed upon the only woman I could
think of as available. She was
widow, a Mrs. Best, who, although
better than the majority of her class.
belonged to a very distinct and very
low natural ordor. I must pause here
a moment to Bay one word about this
order. I had christened them "the
vultures." They .were very common
in every street in my district, and,
presume, In all parts of London: not
necessarily widows, though wldo-vs
predominate; not necessarily drunk
ards, although they have a great
weakness for "Old Tom.
I found Mrs Best at liberty, and
very glad to undertake the duty. I
told her us much as but no more than
was necessary of my relationship with
Miss Milne. I found afterward that
what I had told her was just enoiiKh
to awaken her woman's curiosity, and
on the basts of her surmises she built
conjectures and theories that in after
days gave me much trouble.
"I want yon, If you will." I said, "to
take the entire charge of her; pay no
regard to any remonstrance or pro
test; get food for her, and make her
take It. As to the child. It's a wretch
ed specimen, hut do what you ran t."
save It I will meet you each day at
11 at the street door."
The first day that I met Mrs. Best
she told me that Miss Milne had
neither eaten anything nor spoken to
her. .
"She's a mm woman," she said,
and I thing she's trying to kill her
self: hut the chlld's'all right."
The second day I learned that Miss
Milne "was In the same condition, and
on the third day Mrs. Best did not ap
pear at all. I Just caught Bight of her
as I entered the street; she was peep
ing round the corner of the door.
watching for my coming; the moment
she saw rae she withdrew her head
and disappeared. I was waiting at the
bottom of the stairs, wondering whut
I should do, when a woman who lived
opposite came over to me.
"Is It Mrs. Best you wanted to sec.
sir?" she asked.
Yes why? Do you know where
she Is?"
She's upstairs, sir; she went but a
moment Bince. Shall I run and fetch
her?"
I thanked her, and, although I knew
that her only motive was her wretched
curiosity, I was very glad of her help,
for I was very anxious to hear some
thing of Miss Milne. In a few moments
she returned, followed by Mrs. Best.
The moment she appeared I saw why
she had not kept her appointment,
she was wearing one of Miss Milne's
showy dresses, and the color of her
cheeks showed the consciousness of
her guilt.
I couldn t come down before, sir.
she said, "for the lady Is not so well:
she's raving. I think you ought to see
er.
t thought a moment, and decided to
commit her to the care of a medical
friend of mine. It was utterly utse
less for me to try and do anything for
her. I had little difficulty in securing
his help, and a promise to report in
the evening as to her condition. In
the evening he came and told me that
Hhough Miss Milne had no symptoms
of illness that In other people would
be serious, yet he was very doubtful as
to what the result in her case would
be.
You see," he said, "she's not like
anybody else; she'll neither speak to
you nor taRe rood.
Has she taken no food?' I asked.
Well, as a matter of fact she has
now, but it was not until f had gone
home and got the stomach pump and
actually opened her mouth with the
object of forcing her, that she eon-
sented to swallow It. What a strange
character she is! Do you know her
wen?"
"Yes, I know a good deal about her,
and am much Interested in her wel
fare, and anything yon can do for her
I shall take as a very great favor to
myself."
"You may depend upon my doing
evertmng I can. But what about
that nurse?"
"Oh, she's a brute; but then they
an are."
"But she's worse than any of them.
She's actually wearing the woman's
dresses; she drinks all the brandy,
and at 11 o'clock this morning the
baby was neither washed nor
dressed. When I remonstrated with
her she said, 'Oh, he's all right; he's
too well, I expect, to please his fath
er.' 'Do you know the father?' I asked.
She didn't reply, but gave me a very
significant look. I'd keep my eye or
that woman, if I were you."
"I wish I could, but you see I can't
go near the house; but you must for
me, and report anything you notice."
I did not see my medical friend for
about four days, and then he came In
to tell me that the whole aspect of the
case had altered; he found Miss Milne
each morning sitting up in bed, taking
her food freely and reading a French
novel; there was no difficulty in get
ting her into conversation."
And," he added, "her conversation
interests me immensely.
In what way?"
I don't know; she's such an awful
cynic. She believes In nothing, in
neither' man nor woman, churches nor
chapels, hell nor heaven. I should
think she must be pretty hard-hearted
when she's well, from what I see of
her sick."
'Perhaps, I replied; and then, to
Mi astonishment, I added, "and yet,
do you know that girl nursed me
through my attack of typhoid with a
devotion almost maternal?"
"Really! Well, she's a puzzle then."

at so much the hour."
"Have you su her?"
"Yes; yesterday afternoon I saw
her. and tried to reason with her, but
she is far too clever for mo."
"Was she denant, or simply cavo-
lesa as to her future?
"Well, neither: she slmnly contend
ed that she was making the most of
her life, getting the moRt pleasure ob
tainable. But I called about the bnby;

reached the room, a sight never to bo

On the bundle of stray that repre
sented Miss Milne's bed lay the deud
body of the Infant; it had been "laid
out" In the usual way, but was still
clothed In the dirty rags In which I
had last Seen It. At the -bedside and
leaning over It stood Miss Milne. She
