In thla way It came to paa that two
evenings later I waa crossing the Chan
nel to Havre, and found myself about
fiv o'clock In the afternoon of tbe next
day at Falalse. It was the termtnua ot
th railway In that direction; and a very
ancient conveyance waa In ' waiting to
carry on any travelers who were venture
some enough to explore th region be
yond. I very much preferred sitting beside
I he driver, a red-facod,' smooth-cheeked
Norman, habited In a blue blouse, who
could crack his long whip with almost th
skill of a Parisian omnibus driver. We
wore friends in a trice, for my patois whs

could not believe hla own ears that he
was talking with an Englishman,
The sun sank below the distant hori
son, .with tbe trees showing clearly
against it, and the light of the stars that
came out one by one almost cast a defined
shadow upon our path, from the poplar
trees standing lu long straight rows in
the hedges. It I found Olivia at the end
ot that star-lit path my gladness In It
would be completed. Yet If I found her.
what then? I should see her for a few
minutes in the dull salon of a school, pot-
haps with som watchful, apylng French
woman p reseat I ahould simply aatlafy
myself that ah wa living. Ther could
be nothing more between oa. I dared
not tell ber bow dear abe waa to ma, or
aak ber l( aha ever thought of me la her
looellneaa and (riendleeaoeaa.
I began to aound tba driver, cautiously
wheeling about the object of my eicur
alon Into thoae remote region. I had
tramped through Normandy and Brit
tany three or (our tlmea, but tbr bad
bera no Inducement to vl.lt Nolreau,
which resembled a Lancashire cuttoa
town, aod I bad never been there.
"There are not many Engllah at Nol
reau?" I remarked auggeatlvely.
"Not one." be replied "not one at this
moment. Ther was on little English
msm'selle peste! a very pretty little
Kogliah girl, who waa voyaging precisely
like yon, m'aleur, aonie month ago.
Ther waa a little child with bar, and tbe

did not know a word of our language.

The little child Bustled me. let I
could not help fancying that this young
Eogllshwomsn traveling alone, with no
knowledge of French, must be my Olivia.
At say rsts It could be no other than
Miaa Ellen Martlneau.

entered the towa; but I learned a few

woman in the omnibus bureau. She rec
ollected the Bam of Miss Ellen Marti

her with the accuracy and faithfulness

I ataTted out early the next morning
to nn tue Hue tie urace, where th in
crlptlon on my photographic view of the
premises represented them aa situated,
Ther were two houses, one standing in
the street the other lying back berond a
very pleasant garden. A Frenchman was
pacing up and down the broad gravel
path which connected them, examining
critically th vine growing against th
walla. Two littles children were tram
bollng about in cloae white caps, and with
frocka down to their hecla. Upon aeeing
me he linen nia nat l returned the aal
utatlon with a politeness aa ceremonious
as his own.
"Monsieur Is an Englishman?" he aaid
in a doubtful ton.
"From th Channel Ialsnds," I replied.
"Ah! you belong to us," he said, "but
you ar hybrid, half English, half
French; a fin race. I alio have Engliah
blood in my veins."
I paid monsieur a compliment upon th
result of the admixture of blood In his
own Instance, and then proceeded to un
told my object In now visiting him.
"Ah!" he said, "yes, yes, yes; Perrier
was an Impostor. These houses ar
mine, monsieur. I II vs In the front yon

dred franca a year. I permitted him to

coach house Into a passage which leads
to the street where madame had her
achool. Permit me, and I will ahow it
to you."
II led me through a ahed, and along a
dirty, vaulted passage. Into a mean street
at the back. A email, miaerable-looking
house stood In It, shut up, with broken
persiennes covering the windows. My
heart sank at the Idea of Olivia living
here, in such discomfort and neglect and
sordid poverty.
"Did you ever see a young English
lady hero, monsieur?" I asked; "she ar
rived about the beginning ot last Novem

"But yes, certainly, monsieur," he re

Further Information Wanted.
In one of the later settlements of
New South Wales a man waa put on
trial for stealing a watch. The evidence
had been very conflicting, and as the
jury retired the Judge remarked kindly
that If he could give any assistance In
the way of smoothing out possible diffi
culties he should be happy to do ao.
Eleven ot the jury bad filed out ot the
box, but the twelfth remained, and the
expression on bla face showed that he
was In deep trouble.
'Well, sir," remarked the Judge, "la
there any question yon would like to
ask me before yon retire?"
Tbe Juror's face brightened, and be
replied eagerly:
"I would like to know, my lord, It yon
could tell us whether tbe prisoner stole
