three women I cared most for in the
world—my mother first, Julia second, and
my mysterious patient third.

Hers was a capital opening for a ques­
tion about her friends.
"You will be compelled to communi-
cat, with your family,” I said. “ You
have told me how poo. you are; cannot
you trust me about your friends?”
“ I hav, no friends," she answered sor­
rowfully. “ I f I bad any, do you suppose
I should be here?"
" I am one," I said, “ and Tardif is an­
other.”
“ Ah, new frienda,” she replied; “ but 1
mean real old friends who have known
you all your life, like your mother, Dr.
Martin, or your cousin Julia. I want
somebody to go to who knows all about
me, and say to them, after telling them
everything, keeping nothing back at all,
'H ave I done right? What else ought I
to have done?’ No new friend could an­
swer questions like those."
Was there any reason I could bring
forward to incroase her confidence in
me? I thought there was, and her friend­
lessness and helplessness touched me to
the core of my heart. Yet it was with an
Indefinable reluctance that I brought for­
ward my argument.
“ Miss Ollivier,” I said, “ I have no
claim of old acquaintance or friendship,
yet it is possible I might nuswer those
questions, if you could prevail upon your­
self to tell me the circumstances of your
former life. In a few weeks I shall be in
a position to show you more friendship
than I can do now. I shall have a home
of my own, and a wife, who will be your
friend more fittingly, perhaps, than my­
self.”
“ I knew it,” she answered, half shyly.
"T a rd if told me you were going to mar­
ry your cousin Julia.”
Just then we heard the foldyard gate
swing to behind some one who was com­
ing to the house.
It was an immense relief to see only

feet. Julia was aot two Inches shorter
than myself; a tall, stiff figure, neither
slender enough to be lissome, nor well-
proportioned enough to be majestic. But
she was very good, and her price was far
above rubies.
I visited Sark again in about ten days,
to set Olivia free from my embargo upon
her walking. I allowed her to walk a lit­
tle way along a smooth meadow path,
leaning on my arm; and I found that she
was a head lower than myself—a beau­
tiful height for a woman. That time
Captain Carey had set me down at the
Havre Gosselin, appointing to meet at
the Creux harbor, which was exactly on
the opposite side of the island. In cross­
ing over to It—a distance of rather uiors
than a mile—I encountered Julia's
friends, Emma und Maria Brouard.
"You here again, M artin!" exclaimed
Emma.
"Yes,” I answered: “ Ouptain Carey set
ms down i t the Havre Gosselin, and is
gone round to meet me at the Creux."
“ You have been to see that young per­
son?" asked Maria.
"Y es," I replied.
“ She is a very singular young woman,"
she continued; "w e think her stupid. \Ye
cannot make anythiag of her. But there
is no doubt poor Tardif means to marry
her."
“ Nonsense!” I ejaculated hotly; “ I beg
your pardon, Maria, but I give Tardif
credit for sense enough to know hia own
position.” .
I had half an hour to wait in the little
harbor, its great cliffs rising all about
me, with only a tunnel bored through
them to form an entrance to the green
island within. My rage had purtlj fum­
ed itself away before the yaoht came in
