Orcnvlllo hnd made up his mind that he
was powerless; but still, all the same,
Maude's letter must be answered. This,
again, was not so easy to do. When the
girl you are In love with appeals to you
tearfully to save her from being married
to somebody else, tho obvious course
would seem to be to run away with her
yourself. But, as George Eliot says,
"Ilunning away, especially when spoken
of as 'absconding, seems, at n distance,
to offer a good modern substitute for the
right of sanctuary; but ston closely, It Is
often found inconvenient and scarcely
possible." So, though to emulate young
lochinvnr and bear off your fair Ellen
of Netherby may seem tho proper thing
to do on the first blush of such occasion,
yet, on mature reflection, it may prove
hardly feasible. Mrs. Loehinvar must be
clothed ami fed, while the reiving and
raiding by which that adventurous gallant
doubtless supported the lady of his love
would, in these days, be known by the pro'
saic term of "robbery with violence." The
attention of Colonel Henderson and his
myrmidons, the grave consideration of his
countrymen, and an eloquent oration,
rather to his disadvantage, by a criminal
court judge, would probably he the ter
mination of young Lochinvar's career in
these days.
AVhat is he to write? What is he to
eay? Can you not guess? Of course he
will sit down and do the very thing he
should not. He can't help, but he can
complicate her troubles. Love is essen
tially a selfish passion. Having no con
solation to offer her, no assistance to ren
der her, he betakes himself to his desk
and ours forth his story of love and la
mentation. He exhorts her not to marry
Pearman, but gives her no hint of how
Bhe is to combat the difficulties that sur
round her. He pours forth, in good, hon
est, genuine terms, the tale of his love;
he dwells on the certainty of his having
a home ere long to offer her through his
own exertions, and. winds up -with a tre
mendous peroration about having loved
her from her cradle. He has done noth
ing of the kind. His love is a child of
something under a twelvemonth's growth ;
and though I fear all lovers romance
fearfully, they thoroughly believe in their
figments nt the time. Then comes another
sheet of postscript about "can she love
him?" he shall know no rest till he gets
her answer. And after it is all done
and posted, Grenville Rose feels more un
easy than ever. He is. not thinking so
much of poor Maude's troubles as What
will she say to his declaration of love?
He racks his brain for every trace of
favor she has shown him all' the past
year. Sweet and cousinly she has been
?ver, but no sign of love can he recall.
Fool that 1 have been 1" he mutters ; "I
"have been so careful not to give her a
lint of my feelings. I wish I had that
letter back. No, I don't. I don't know,
in short " and the last fragment con
tained pretty well the gist of Grenville's
thoughts at present.
CIIAPTEU XI.
Maude, as she has already explained,
has been having a hard time of it at
Glinn these last two or three days. Life
has been all so easy to her so far, that
he hardly realizes the facing of this,
her first genuine trouble. She is await
ing the post anxiously this morning; Gren
Is certain to write to her by return, and
her belief in Gren is unbounded.
Once more the icy breakfast table she
so dreads. Her father looks at her as a
culprit who would subvert the old Gre
cian story, and sacrifice her parent in
stead of presenting her throat to the
knife. Mrs. Denison evidently looks upon
her as a sainted martyr. She loves and
sympathizes with her daughter; she ap
proves of her spirited refusal, but she
canuot desert her old Idols. "Tho king
can do no wrong." Harold Denison's
opinion must be hers outwardly, though
in her heart of hearts she may rebuke
herself for not being on her daughter's
side.
"A letter from Grenville for you,
Maude," said her father, as he threw it
across. She and her cousin were regu
lar correspondents, so that it excited no
remark; yet the mother noticed that the
girl, Instead of tearing it oppn as was her
wont, slipped it quietly into the pocket
of her dress. Maude felt as if she pos
sessed a talisman against her troubles,
and determined to read it in the solitude
of her own chamber, and there she betook
herself as soon as breakfast was over.
Her cheek flushed as she perused It, and
the large grey eyes opened wide witli
astonishment. Grenville's title of passion
ate love would have moved most girls,
Albeit he has not as yet in these pages
figured to any great advantage still
Grenville Rose had a shewd wiough head
upon his shoulders, and was a comely
man to look upon, to boot. He told his
love well, and few maidens, even if they
do not reciprocate it, can listen unmoved
when that old-world story is passionately
told them. There was plenty of warmth
in Grenville's fervent pleading, and after
reading the letter through twice, Maude
dropped the paper on her lap, and, utterly
oblivious to her troubles, fell into a rev
erie. It seemed so strange. She had loved
nnd admired Greu an long as she could
remember, but she had never thought of
Iiini in this way at least, she did not
think so, and yet, almost unconsciously to
herself, of late she had been more solicit
ous about gaining his good opinion and
pleasing him than of yore. "To think
Greu should caro about me in this way!"
who murmured ; "and I do I love him? I
don't know, lie's nicer, and better, and
cleverer than anyone I ever met. Why
didn't he tell me this when he was here
Inst? I think I'd rather have heard It
from hiiw-elf. Ah! but doesu't he tell
me why not?" and the girl once more
took up the letter and read;
"All this, tny darling, has been on my
lips for months, but bow could I tell
you? bow could I seek your lor who,
for
a
Wife
SMART
had not even a home to offer? What ths
struggle has been to seo you so often, and
yet keep down what surged within me, I
only know. When I kissed your check
at parting last time, I nearly clasped you
in my arms and poured out the secret of
my soul to you. I did not; it seemed
madness it is perhaps madness now ; but,
my darling, I could not loso you. When
you tell me that another seeks tho prize
I covet, right or wrong, I must speak.
Maude, you must decide between us. Can
you trust me, nnd wait?"
Once more the letter fell in her lap,
and the softened grey eyes nnd slightly
flushed face augured well for Grenville
Rose's wooing.
"Yes," she muttered, softly, "I think
I love him now as ho would have me;
nnd if I don't quite yet for it seems nil
so new to me I know I could shortly.
Gren, dear, what am I to write to you?
I think It must be 'Yes.' "
It was wrong, she thought, to keep
Gren in suspense when he was so dread
fully in love with her; so that night's
mail bore a timid, fluttering little note,
the receipt of which produced a tre
mendous state of exhilaration In that
young Templar.
But poor Maude, after the first flush
of exultation "that enters tho breast of
every girl at n welcome declaration of
love, quickly awoke to the fact that her
position was not a whit improved by it.
She confided her engagement to her moth
er, nnd for the first time in her life
Maude beheld Mrs. Denison really angry.
"I'm surprised nnd disgusted with Gren
ville," said that lady. "It's too bad of
him. taking advantage of a child like you
in this manner. I like him, always 'have
liked -him, and, under different circum
stances, would have sooner seen you his
wife than any man's I know. But he
can barely keep himself as yet, and must
know that his thinking of a wife at all
is foolish in the extreme, and that think
ing of you is simply absurd. He's behaved
very badly, and if you don't promise to
write and break it off, you can say, by
my desire, I shall tell your father all
about it."
"Oh, mother, you won't do that," said
Maude.
"Not unless you oblige me," said Mrs.
Denison. sternly.
Poor Maude was electrified. That the
mother she had' been always accustomed
to pet, and do as she liked with, should
suddenly rise against her like this, was
past her comprehension. Yet to anyone
who has made character his study, .noth
ing can be more in accordance with the
usual law in such cases. Weak, feeble
characters, when, cither from caprice or
driven by necessity, they exert snch power
as may be in their bands, invariably do it
tyrannically and despotically.
Mrs. Denison has suffered of late from
the stern rule of her lord nnd master. In
spite of all her love for her daughter, she
has become dimly conscious that there
will be no peace at Glinn unless Maude
yields assent -to the ukase Harold Deni
son has promulgated. Women of her
class can suffer, but they cannot resist.
Even now she would not urge Maude to
marry Pearman. But that her impecuni
ous nephew had dared to entangle her
daughter in an engagement, especially at
this time, roused as much wrath within
her as her nature was capable of. Most
mothers, I Imagine, would deem she bad
grounds for Indignation.
All this while Pearman has not been
idle. Slowly, but surely, the legal notices
and proceedings progress, and Harold
Denison knows full well that within three
weeks ten thousand pounds must be found,
or Glinn must go to the hammer. The
Pearmans conduct the campaign with
scrupulous politeness. It is quite in ac
cordance with the old traditions of the
Battle of Fontenoy. They a-KIog!ze for
every fresh process, and allude to It as a
mere matter of form. They affect to be
lieve that there can be no doubt Mr. Den
ison will easily pay them off at the ex
piration of the notice of foreclosure. The
old gentleman even indulges in pocularlty
on the subject.
"Mean to have the very last day out
of us, I see, sir; and quite right, too," ho
chuckled, upon meeting tho squire one
day.
"Yes, Pearman,'" was the grim retort;:
VI learned the exacting of my pound of
flesh, to the last pennyweight, in your
bands. I have not forgot my lesson. You
burn it into your pupils' minds pretty
deeply."
The old lawyer has laid himself open
to another rebTiff, and Denison has not
failed to take advantage thereof. Why?
Sarcasm breaks no bones, few knew bet
ter than that astute "fisher of men."
His sentiviness was tolerably blunt, and
he recked little what men said to him,
or of him, so long as the furtherance of
the object he had In view was attained.
That his son should marry Maude Deni
son wag the goal he now aimed at, and
that that was to be brought about, he
still thought far from Improbable, To
that end he conceived, even while press
ing him for money, it was quite necessary
to keep on easy terms with the squire.
None knew better than he how bitter it
is for a proud man to take his words
back, and if what he now played for was
to be achieved, tltat was a necessity. The
task must be made as easy as possible
the unpalatable draught sugared as far
as might be.
"He ho!" he answered; "you will
have your joke, Mr. Denison. It's a
mighty pity you couldn't make up your
mind to concentrate the property onco
more. Beg pardon, Squire," ho continued,
deprecating Denison's angry gesture;
"don't fear my alluding to it again, It
was presumption on my part, I know, and
If I said anything to vex you, I'm sure
I'm heartily sorry, You'll forgive an old
man, who, not having been Drought up
with your views, saw nothing but the con
centration of an estate. Yes, I know I
was all In the wrong; it isn't likely Miss
Maadt could b brought to think el such
a thing. I'm sure I hope tho cntllng-In
of tho mortgage Is no inconvenience; you
can easily ralso It elsewhere. But Sam's
got so deep in tho racing now, that wo
must get that sum together beforo tho
Two Thousand. I wish ho wasn't; but
ho's clover, Snm Is clever in his way
too great a gentleman for me. No of
fense, Blr, I hopo; but I'm n plain man."
CHAPTER XII.
Harold Denison touched his hat haught
ily, and rode home; but the old usurer's
artful speech still simmered in his brain.
Why should It not bo? It would cut tho
tangled knot of his difficulties. Ho had
made Inquiries. Young Pearman had
been brought up n gentleman, and visited
In several good houses In tho county. Ho
naturally a little exaggerated this to him
self, to justify the course he Intended to
pursuo; nay, for tho matter of that, had
been pursuing for some days. His wife
had told him that she had laid Uio Pear
man proposition beforo Maude, and that
tho young lady had declined, with thanks ;
slnco which intelligence ho had bullied
Mrs. Denison, and snubbed or treated his
daughter with cold indifference. Tho heads
of the family can mnko contumacious
children conscious of their high displeas
ure without any unseemly rating indeed,
that may be looked upon as mere mild and
salutary punishment compared to tho oth
er that other which, to speak metaphor
ically, consists in bclug condemned to tho
domestic ice house. It is hard to describe,
still there will bo few of my readers
who, if they have had" the good fortune
not to experience it, hut must have seen
some culprit enduring that slow punish
ment meted out moro oftent perhnps, to
daughters than sons. But don't we all
know it; the chilling rejoinder that meets
any attempt at geniality tho nustcro
look that seems to say it is heresy that
we should presume to forget the measure
of our offending the moral thong always
awaiting us should we show any signs of
relapsing into cheerfulness? Unit 1 thoso
physical torturers of the middle ages were
mere bunglers nt their craft.
From tills time poor Maude's life was
made heavy to bear. Harold Denison sent
for her to his study, nnd himself put
Penrninn's proposal before her. He en
larged upon its advantages, nnd declared
that It was her duty to save the property
to her descendants; on her head it rest
ed whether the DenlsonS of Glinn should
cease to exist; as of course her future
husband must take her name. For him
self, he cared not ho was an old man,
and it mattered little to him. Any foreign
watering place was good enough for him
to wear out bis miserable life In. He
deplored the follies of his youth. It
was sad that a father should plead be
fore a daughter inthls wise. lie could
bear anything but the thought thnt the
Denisons of Glinn should be expunged
from the roll of the county In which they
had dwelt and been known since the Wars
of the Roses; all this It was In Maude's
power to avert. Why could she not mar
ry this man? He hard been brought up a
gentleman, and mixed In the best society
in the county. If not quite her equal in
blood, he would repair tho shattered for
tunes of the family. Such matches were
made every day. The destiny of the plu
tocracy was to strengthen the nristocracy.
Far be it from him to put any pressure
upon her, but it was his duty ns a parent
to lay the whole case before her.
Gallantly did Maude fight her battle,
and though nt the end of this long Inter
view she stood with flushed nnd tear
stnined cheeks to listen to her father's
final exordium, she was still resolute in
her refusal.
But the struggle was too unequal. Un
der the pressure put npon her by her bus
band Mrs. Denison bad not only made
Maude write a letter of renunciation to
Grenville Rose, but had penned him a very
severe philippic herself, in which she In
sisted" that all correspondence should
cease between them. She hnd further,
under the threat of revealing everything
to Mr. Denison, extorted n promise from
Maude that she would write no more to
her cousin. She knew her daughter well,
and felt implicit confidence that, her word
once pledged, troth would be kept.
I have described the first stage of the
attack. It Is a common enough story,
ns many a woman could bear witness to,
as far as the general details go. Can
you not easily guess the result? She was
a high-spirited girl, and bore herself
bravely in the beginning; but cut off
from all communication with her lover,
she gave, way at last to the moral pres
sure brought to bear upon her, nnd, with
pale cheeks nnd heavy eyes, whispered her
mother "that they might do with her as
they liked ;' If she couldn't marry Gren,
she didn't care who It was."
