FETTERED BY ALIXANOIB THrp." "Xra's 9M0llaWMiW GUAITEK VIII. (Continued.) A short time Utcr. and ho drew up in front of the old mill. It wn pictur esque a spot as one could well Iraylne. for great trees overhung the ruined mill and the noisy fall of the water over the dam could be plainly heard. ItoKer had evidently been here before, and made all trrniiEemcuts, for, even as he leaped to the ground nnd was In the act of llftlnie Carol down, the door open ed and a woman appeared In view, hold ing a sputtering candle. The shadow of a terrible crime hung over the place, and most people In the neighborhood avoided It, especially after nightfall. All the money In the Taults of the treasury could hardly hare tmpt cd one of the negroes on ltichmnnd Ter race or Darrcl Caace to hate willingly gone to the haunted mill when dnrVue-ia had descended upon the land. What this crime was does not enter Into our story, so far as particulars are concerned, but let It suffice to say that the mad miller murdered his wife In a fit of Jealousy, and also the man who was working for him, ending the terrible tra gedy In a fitting manner by taking his own life. The children of this unhappy couple ! tKvcn tnkm In chiree by relatives, who tried to rent out the mill, but tnc effort was in Tain, for all united in de claring It was haunted, and that in the middle of he night they would be arous ed by a terrible din. They declared they heard the mad mill er chasing his wife and hired man from room to room, cursing and reviling, while they prayed and pleaded with him. Then would come the sound of heavy blows with a knife, one for each person? heavy falls, terrible groans, and silence would ensue. For eocne years back the mill had been Inhabited by a woman who called herself Mrs. Itandall, and It was assumed that she was a widow. She was quiet and troubled no one, and always seemed to have enough money to keep herself In ex istence and aid those poorer than herself. Carol was warmly received. 8he sank wearily into a chair, and then gated about her with a trilling show of Interest, while the woman went to prepare a room. Somehow the young girl bad thought Mrs. Randall's eyes had rested upon her In a most singular manner, and yet to her knowledge ahe had never seen the ladr before. That ahe was a lady despite her poor nrraundlues was nlaln to be seen. Her hair had once been black, but was now n liver gray, and brushed smoothly away from a forehead that was wait as snow, though furrowed by the cares of years. The room In which Roger and Carol were left was scantily furnished, and what few articles there were showed signs of age, having, no doubt, once been the property of the road miller. Upon one wall waa a picture, in a small frame, with lU face turned away. Sev eral other pictures there were, but aono had been treated In this way. She aw Roger standing near her. his eyes glued upon her form as though be was drinking in all her loveliness, and she did look beautiful beyond all com parison in her wedding dress of white ilk, but somehow ber mind wandered back again to the picture on the wall, and again she let her eyes fall upon it. Curiosity In Itself Is strong enough in any one, hut it was nome greater power than this that urged Carol to walk over to the picture. It seemed as though some Invisible power hsd bold of her hand nnd was leading her on. She turned the little picture, gave one glance, and then, with a cry of dummy and astonishment, let it fall back In its old position. She had gazed upon the face of her father! OIIAITBR IX. What did It mean? Tb!n was the question that kept ringing 1U Changs through her brain as he stood there before that mysterious pic ture. The face was that of a man In the rim of life, evidently between thirty fiTi. nml fortv. and so different was It from the Lawrence Richmond of the pre, ent that she might not have recognized It had not ahe seen a copy of the Mine picture upon the wall nt home. What mystery was this? By what right did this lone woman, who caimt from no one knew where, have her .. til er's picture upon the wall? Was the faet of Its face being turned In to be con sidered an Jnsult, or what? Her blood began to leap through her veins, but she was suddenly uroiiMM by the voice of Roger. "Carol!" A simple pronounelatlon of Iter name, but there.was that In the tone that caus ed her heart to seemingly stand still. Roger had only obtained a gllmpno of the face that was inclosed in the gold frame nnd turned.to the wall, and he had not recognized It, of course. His mind, too, wn upon other things, and he paid little heed to the cmotiou of the young girl save as It referred to him. He came n step closer to her. His arms were hu!d out, his pleading ccs fixed up on her own with a glance that was al most fascination. How she longed to throw herself Into those arms and be forever at rest! but she knew full well guilt would never lut ber rest, and, with a heroism worthy of the olden martyrs, she stuieu uer inrou blng heart as best she could, and held back. What did she believe of him, standlug there and looking him In tbo eyes? - The story of Nora Warner, as told by BY FATE SIOBIRTOON "ttf(. r 3ttHt cirf," lcy," Efc.Efc. that unfortunate girl hernelf, must have flashed into her mtnd like lightning, but, with ber eyes upon Roger Darrel's hand some, honest face, she was as sure tint he could do no wrong to any one will fully as that she drew breath. That Nora Warner was his wretched wife she understood too well, for had he not himself acknowledged the stain up on his name; but that he had acted the part of a villain toward her Carol could never believe. Wonderful, la it not, what things dart through the mind In a few second of time? Roger could bear tho silence no longer. When he spoke his voice Til-rnt ed with cmotiou, which he tried In vain to suppress. "Carol, my own love, for tho last time I come to you. a suppliant. Pride has given way before the love that floods my soul. You may hate me for thus tempting yon, but 1 do not look at It In the same light you do. Tho shamu of the past Is burled lu the mad house. Why should this woman come between .w? Oh. my poor darling, why were you curs ed with a lovs like mine, that seems to blight where It falls; and yet if I could serve you by having my poor body tor tured, willingly would I undergo the In Diction. You believe me, do you not, be- loved r . . "You know I do. Roger, lou Know nisi my heart is wholly yours, and ever will be, but once again i ten you ni j ask can never be. There rests between us a deep anu uniinoinun- ".. - heart la breaking. Roger, but better that It should do so with lovo tnan sname and disgrace." "Shame and disgrace," he muttered, repeating her words almost unconscious y, and with a vague look upon hU face. "Forgive me for ssylng it, dear, but I cannot ever be your wife while Nora Warner lives. Her death can wipe out the shame, nothing else. Until then we can be nothing to each other." A light leaped Into his face that was most wonderful to sec. It seemed trans figured, and the sadness of woe unutter able gave way to the brightness of hope and joy. "Carol," be said, huskily, "would you be my wife if Nora Warner were dead, so that her name would be all that was left of ber? Would that Indeed wipe out the disgrace that has fallen upon h nam, In rour eves?" "To both of your questions I have but nn anawer ves! Heaven knows how willingly I would Join my lot with ycurs, to be with you always, In sickness or In health; but while Nora Warner lives 11 is Impossible. (Jive up all thoughts of sueti happiness, dear Roger, for It Is beyond reach." , ... She Tided him the more since she had seen that glad light leap Into bis eyes, for she felt sure that he was building up false hopes. "Not so far as you Imagine, my darljng. Kven now It seems to me the skies are growing brighter," be said, drawing forth a letter. "What do you mean, Rogerr "Nora Warner is dead!" he replied, slowly. The girl gave a start, and an exclama tion fell from her lips. "Impossible!" she cried. "Not so, dearest. Read that letter, and you will sec that what I have told you was the truth. Nora Warner, poor girl. lias found rest. The letter was ueiarci In Undine Its destination, and some kind fate directed It Into my bauds. Read. This was what sne renn in me (,rti, coarso scrawl of a man who had been a scholar once, perhaps, but never a good penman: "Mr. Roger Darrcl: "Sir The young woman whom you committed to my care.

What can she want, poor girl; but why need I ask? If that be so, then all is gloom again where I had caught a gllmpso of dawn, nnd tho darkness will be nil the darker and the pain mora hitler because of It. Oh, Carol, am I to go from you forever? Something seems to tell me that If we part now It will be never to mVt again. uu ovj.ii were clued upon her face, full of the passionate fire of tho absorbing love that possessed his soul, and she trembled under the look, knowing nor weakness now iimi iou unu mui u j.u., cr over her heart; but ho .summoned up Oier courage nnd resolutely shut out tho alluring scene that came beforo her. "Rogei, there Is but onq answer," she said. "Love can command my life, but it can never causo me to forget that I am a Richmond. As the dearest friend I have, on earth. I look to you, but more than that you cannot, must not bo while ahe Uvea. My answer Is-hcaven help us both gol" He uerved himself to meet It Ilka a man, but It was a terrible blow. "Carol, It may be you arc right, though I am too blinded by love and sorrow to comprehend It. In the future I shall bo to you a friend lu time of need. 1 shall come and see you here, but never nguln as your lover. Then If there. Is uny rela tive to whom you would like to go, I will take you there. I hear Mrs. Itnu. dall coming. Trust lu her, for she U a true friend. And now farewell, my love, my life. Farewell, farewell." Panting, she struggled from his fierce embrace. Ho stood there looking at her while ahe grew calm ami Icy cold. Then turning, he took his hat and left the old mill. , ... , She sank back with clasped hands und tearful eyes. "Olve me strength, oh Father In Iumv en, for the light of my life goes out with hlml" OIIAITKU X. When Mrs. Randall entered the room, the mind of the young girl leaped ngjln to the mystery that hail engross u o fore Roger Darrel made his appeal for life and love her father's picture turned with Its face to the wall. What was there In the hidden past of this still handsome woman that connect cd her with Lawrence Richmond? The widow had not even heard Carol s name from Roger, he having only slated the bare facts, nnd she had consented at once to aid him, her soul recognising tho injustice of such a forced marriage. Carol possessed a part of her fathers determined character, nnd she did not long beat about the bush. Though her question apparently startled the widow, there crept a shadow of pain Into her face and her voice trembled as she said: "People often turn to the wall the pic tures of those dead. He Is dead to me.' "Was he a great friend, then?" asked Carol, breathlessly, ber eye glued upon Mrs. Randall's face. "He was more than that, child. Altl It I a sad thing to have the one you love .. unnn Mrth turn unoti you and revile you-to wrongfjilly accuse you of that at j which your heart recoils In horror; to i end you from him as he would a leper, and at one fell sweep, wipe out the hap py past. I loved him," she continued, lu a low, sad tone, "as man was never loved. I have loved hlra so truly that I have forgiven the great wrong he did me. though my pride would never allow me to seek his presence again. Upon the dear gTave In the sunny South I have shed bitter tear, but when I th nk how I ihall meet them above, where the truth will be made known, and my heart shown to lc as spotless as the marble shaft that ronrks their grave, I take hope aealn." It was at this point that the first gleam of the light that was soon to ovcrwhrlm nl rnmi. Into her mind. She could only sit there with all her sense strain ed, drinking In ibe sweet olco of the widow and await the coming shock. "Trouble and sorrow have lieen my lot. Ahl I never thought 1 should sur vive that dreadful night, and many time since I have looked bsck to shud der and feel my heart grow cold with the horror that took possession of It. Il turned a deaf ear to my pleading my rown-nnd cursed me, but for that I have forgiven him, for I was innocent. Ills curse went home. Ood punished him. -m, how terribly, and yet nt the same time I had to suffer with him. for were they , ...- .i.Utir7 Not one was left; lie alone remulned to etiwe the blight that had fallen iion his home, the desolation that had robbed him even as he had rob bed me." All this while Carol had been utterly unable to speak a word, but now i-ao recovered her breath. - "In heaven' name, who nre yon, ana what relation do you boar to Lawrence Richmond?" she gasped, her eyes atlame with eager expectant. "I was told afterwards that the court had made it strangers, but for elgiit years he called me by that dearest name on earth-wife. I am nothing to Mm now save the wretched woman from whom he was divorced, nnd who loves him still In spite of her wrong; but why do you nsk? Your fact is white, ...i -,,, i.nB,l tremble. You advance toward me-you hold out your arms. No, It must I a dream, for they a I sleep tin der the magnolias. Olrl with the eyes mid face of my dead Carol, what relation does this tnan bear to you?" and she tore down the hidden picture, holding It In front of Carol face. "H-ls-my father!" (To bo continued.)
