4 r ie ra, at The Raehelora*. very long ago ! The Main Chance CHAPTER .XXI IL—(Coe tinned. I • • • • • John Saxton sat in the office of th« Traction Company on a hot night in July. Fenton tad jum left him. Th«» transfer to the Margrave syndicate had been effected and John would no more aign himself “John Saxton. Receiver.” Ilia work in Clarkson was at an end. The Neponset Trust Company had called him to Boston for a conference, which ir.cant. he knew, a termination of his ser* vice with them, lie had lately sold the Poindexter ranch, and an little property remained on the Neponset's books that it could be cared for from the home office, lie had not opened the afternoon mail, lie picked up a letter from the top of the pile, dated from San Fransi »co, and read. "San Francisco. •My Dear Sir: “1 hesitate about writing yon. but there are some things which 1 should like you co understand before I go away. 1 had fully expected to remain with you and Bishop iMafield and to return to Clarkson that last morning at Poindex- ter s. I cannot defend myself for having ran away : it must have seemed a strange thing to you that I did so. 1 bad fully Intended acting on the bishop's advice, which 1 knew then, and know now. was good. But when the west-Sound train came, my courage left me; 1. could not go back and face the people I had known, after what had happened. I told you the truth there in the ranch house that eight; every word of it was true. May be I did not make it clear enough how weak I am. Things came too easy for me. I guess; at any rate I was never worthy of the r»d fortune that befell me. It seemed to me that for two years everything I did was a mistake. I sup pose if I had been a real criminal, and oox merely a coward, I should not have •mangled myself as I did and brought calamity upon other people. When I reached here I found employ ment with a shipping bouse. I have told my story to one of the firm, who has been kind to me. fie seems to understand my case, and is giviug me a good chance to begin over again. I suppose the worst possible things have been said about me. and I do not care, except that 1 hope the people in Clarkson will not think I was guilty of any wrong-doing at the bank. I read in the newspapers that I bad stolen the bank's money, and I hope that was corrected. The books must have proved what I say. I understand now that what 1 did was worse than stealing, but i should like you and Mr. Porter to know that I not only did not take other people's money, but that in my foolish relations with Margrave I did not re ceive a cent for the shares of stock which be took from me—neither for my own nor for those of Miss Porter. I don't blame Margrave; If I had not been a coward be could not have played with me as he did. **The company Is »ending me to one of its South American bouses. I go by steamer to-morrow, and you will not hear from me again. 1 should like you to know that I have neither seen nor heard anything of my brother since that night. With best wishes for your own happiness and prosperity, yours sin<*erely, “JAMES WHEATOX." On his way home to the club Saxton stopped at Bishop Delafield's rooms, and found the bishop, as usual, preparing for flight. Time did not change Bishop Dela field. He was one of those men who reach 60, and never, apparently, pass it. He and Saxton w»»re fast friends now. The bishop missed Warry out of his life; Warry was always so accessible and so cheering. John was Lot so accessible and be had not Warry*« ligntness. but the Bishop of Clarkson liked John Saxton. The bishop sat with his inevitable band baggage by bis side and read Whea ton's letter througa. “How ignorant we are I" he said, fold ing It. "I sometime, think that we who try to minister to the needs of the poor In spirit do not even know the rudiments of our trade. We are pretty helplesx with men like Wheaton. They are appar ently strong; they yield to no tempta tions. so far as any man knows; they are exemplary characters. I suppose that they are living little tragedies all the time. Th, moral coward is more to be pitied than the open criminal. You know where to find the criminal; but the moral coward is an unknown quantity. Life 1, a strange business, John, and the older I get th, les, I think I know of It” He eigbed and handed back ths letter. -But he's doing better than ws might hare expected him to*" Mid Saxton. “A man's entitled to happiness if be can find IL He undoubtedly dboM the easier part in running away. I can't imagine him coming back here to face the community after all that had happened." “I don't know that I can either. Preaching is easier than practicing, and I'm not sure that I gave him the best ad vice at the ranch house that morning.” “Well, it wu the only thing to do,” Saxton answered. “I suppose neither you nor I wa, sure be told the truth; It was a situation that wa, calculated to make one skeptical. It Isn't clear from his letter that the whole thing has Im- prese r d him in any gr,at way. He', anx ious to hav, u, thing well of him—a kind of retrospectlv, vanity." “But hl, punishment I, great.
