Lady Creech put up ber lorguclto
and stared nt him and witb a haughty

his feet.

twice she put out her hand In his di

CHAPTER XYIII.
MISUNDERSTOOD.
1ADY CREECH was out curly the
next morning. Perhaps she bad
g hope that something might be
. saved from the wreck and rec
ollected the ancient adage about the
early bird. She was seated on the ter
race having breakfast and keeping a
keen eye on the main entrance when
the hopeful Almerlc appeared, yawn
ing and inexpressibly bored. '.. -"Mornln',
aunt," be said. -.
"Where's your father, Almerlc?" she
demanded. .
"Flew the baUy coop for Naples last
night. Seemed to be jolly well upset.
you know. Feared this beastly convict
chap would take a shot at him or
something like that"
I-ady Creech snorted.
"He always was a fool. Bah! He
should have stayed. Where's the
countess?"
''Naples; to look after the governor,
I'd say. Went off this morning. Beast
ly about this convict chap, yea know.
What's to become of him 5"
"I can at least give you some Infor
mation," the old lady replied. "This
grand duke person's obtained for the
fellow a pardon by telegraph from St.
Petersburg."
"How's the dear Ethel this morn
ing?" asked Almerlc when he had di
gested bis astonishment
"Behaving very peculiarly outra
geously, I might say."
"How?" demanded Almerlc, stilling a
yawn.
"Shedding tears over this IvanolTs
story. What's more, she has sent that
dreadful Pike person to bim with as
sistance." "Money! By Jove! Good girl! Buy
ing the beggar off to keep him from
making a scandal for us! How's .that?"
- Lady Creech looked at hlm.i with
something akin to admiration,
"Almerlc! How clever of you! Of
course she is! Your futher will be
pleased. What a pity he didn't wait!"
Daniel appeared at the top of the
steps and, seeing the pair, came slowly
toward them. As he reached the table
where they sat be addressed Almerlc.
"Your pa seemed In a hurry last
night," he said.
Almerlc started violently, but Lady
Creech arose and, wltb n haughty
KM iice, swopf fiiTo tfio bufet HBo
looked after hor and then back to Al
merlc. "Oh, yes," tbo hitter answered. "Had
to catch a tralntho pnter had he's
easily worried by trllles. you know."
"Well, you don't worry not too
easy, do you, son?"'
"Oh, ,oni Units nothing particular
this morning to bother one," Iho
young niim replied, yawning. "Noth
In:; ut nil. Of course Miss Ethel la
standing to her promise"
"Yes, she Is," replied Pike grimly,
and Alincrlo went uu:
"Ye-es, the governor only thought It
best to clear out a bit until we were
certain that she manages to draw off
tills convict chiip what yoil Ameri
cans call 'ulllxing him,' Isn't It?"
Pike lifted u warning hand.
"Don't try to talk United States, son.
Just tell mo In your own way."
"Why," replied Almerlc, "sho's heu
giving him money, hasn't sho? You
took It to. him yourself, didn't you? Nat
urally we understood what It was for.
Sho's trying to keep the beggar qulot."
"So that's what sbo sent tho poor
cuss tlio money for, was ltf" That's
tho way you look at It, eh?" tho Amer
ican asked.
"Why, of course! What other rea
son could there be?" nsked tho other.
"Well, you know I'd sort of gath
ered It was because Sho was sorry for
him thought he'd been, wronged, but,
of course, I'm stupid!"
"Well, ray-thcr! I don't know that
It wns so necessary for her to busk
him up, but It showed a very worthy
intention In ber, dldtTt it, eb, now?"
Pike looked at blm carefully.
"Would you mind my being present
when you thank her for it?" he asked,
and Almerlc laughed riotously.
"Shouldn't in the least If I intended
to, thank her. It simply shows that
she considers herself already ono of
us. It's perfectly plain as plain as
you arc, eh?"
He walked off whistling.
Pike gazed after him with an admi
rable chuckle. As be turned about ha
saw Ethel standing at the head of the
steps, and there was a sad look upon
her face. .
"I bear that Lord Hawcastle has !
left," she said quietly. j
"Yes. I saw blm go last night," be !
answered, looking up at her.
"Ho left very quickly," she said ab-
sently. !
"He did seem to be forgetting tin
scenery," the American replied. "Did
yoa see Ivanoff?"
' "Yes. I am almost sorry. Uo mado !
so much of what I could do." I
"There aro some good people overj
here, ain't there?" he ventured, audi
she looked at him quickly. ' . . "
"When you arc at home again I hope ;
you will remember them," she said. ,
"I win;" he 'replied. ' " ' '
- "And. I hope ypuVlll. forget, every-'
thing I ever said," she, went on., '
'Somehow it doesn't seem likely at:
if I ever would." be returned. i
"Oh. yes, you will," she said. "All1
those unkind things I said to you" j
"Oh, I'll forget those easy," he in- !
terruptcd quickly, and she went on,
almost tearfully:
"And the other things, too, when
you're once more among your kind,
good borne folks and probably tlicrc's
one you'll be so glad to get back to
you'll hardly know you've been away
an unworldly girl, one that doesn't
need to be cured of oh, all sorts of
follies a kind girl, one who's been ;
sweet to you. I enn see her; she
wears white muslin and waits by tho
gate for you at twilight. Isn't she like
that?"
He shook his head.
"No, not like that."
"But there is some one there?" she
asked.
He smiled sadly.
"Well,' she's only been there In a
way. ,' I've bad ber picture on my desk
for a good while. Sometimes when I
go home In the evening sbo kind of
seems to be there. 1 bought a homey
