HAWLEY
CHAlTKtt IV.
The nut day I'earroan became exec
Ively enamored of hit hopeful "on' pro
ject, though be illil not at an uisgune
to htmself the difficulties that stood tn
the war of It accomplishment. If he
had not had the advantage of uch an
education as 8am had hat). yet he had
nude a large fortune by trailing on the
w eaknrtsc of hi fellow-men. Those
who achieve this, though It may be little
to their credit, become more thoroughly
acquainted with the spring of the huuun
mind than all the metaphysicians and phi
losopher, who have ever written or dream
ed aboat It. The son might be an astute
tnkn enough at hi location of the turf,
but he was a child, compared to hi fath
er, when computing to what cxtrnt he
could persuade, bind, or break men to
bis own will. The son thought the advan
tagra of such an alliance must be so
transparent In a worldly point of Tlew
to Harold IVnUou that he would be a
willing coadjutor In the scheme, from the
moment it was proposed to him ; the fath
er at once forouvw the old family pride
that would be up In arm against blra
the Instant he mooted the Idea.
Itut he said to himself, "1 hare bad
much to do with Harold DenUon, and
should know him thoroughly. He it seltUh
at heart to the core. lu all those trou
blous day of bis, when I was settling
his affairs, I never knew him dwell upon
wtiat the results might be to his wife
and daughter. It was ever what be had
to give up. He'll scout this proposal
with Indignation when I first mention It
to him; but he'll come round to it In
time. Aa for the girl's that' Sara's
affair: but when Denlson has once made
up bis mind to her marrying him, he's as
likely a man as I know to turn on the
domestic screw heavily. 1 ve seen that
oracle worked more than once, and it's
generally pretty efficacious. They run
way with somebody else afterwards, oc
casionally, but that's tht fault of the
fausboudV not kerpinjc them within
bounds. Yes ; I'll r.de over and see Den
lson to-morrow. It won't be a very pleas
ant Job, 1 doubt , but I am used to that."
The owner of 01 Inn felt that slight
nervous perturbation that invariably at
tends the call of a large creditor. The
noise of the carriage wheels had merely
produced a feeling of languid curiosity;
but the announcement thkt Mr. I'earman
wanted to see him nude the squire's
pulse quicken, and It was with an anx
iety be was unable to disguise that he
welcomed him in bis own peculiar alow
tones.
"Sit down, I'earman. Take that arm
chair, and make yourself comfortable. I
hope to heaven jou haven't come to make
me the reverse"
"Not at all. Mr. DenUon. My visit U
not a business one, though I have some
thing I should like just to talk to you
a little about presently. Shocking weath
er we're baring. Had for the farmers
very. Isn't it?"
"You may say that. Nothing we have
to Bell seems to be worth anything. AH
farm produce Is a drug In the market.
How's Coriander going on? It looks like
jour gathering a terrible harvest In April
at Newmarket, anyhow. The horse Is
doing well, I suppose?"
"I'm, I believe so. You know, Mr.
DenUon, I'm getting too old myself to
ee after such tilings. I leave all that to
Bam; but be tells me the bone will run
well for the 'Guinea,' Ur accidents."
"Hun well!' 'liar accidents '.' Why,
'bar accident,' be must win," cried the
ever sanguine Denlson. "I never bet
now, as you know; but in the old days
I should have bad a thousand on him."
"Ah, well," said the old lawyer, "there's
vyherw It Is. You always would bellere
In certalntlm In racing. I never myself
cot further than believing s horse would
run well."
"Yew," laughed the squire: "and In
consequence jsu made a fortune while
I lost one. I'm afraid, too, It would be
the same thing all over again If I could
begin once more."
I'earman shot a keen look at him from
under his grlzxled broks, and thought
most assuredly that It would be so, and
how very much It would facilitate bis
present design If the squire was a little
involved In that way at present. He of
course knew the main part of Harold
Denlson' entanglements', but even he.
though bis priuciiat man of business, did
not know how bad things really were. It
would have given him more confidence
to unfold the object of Ills embassy bnd
be been poiMettked of such knowledge.
"WeU, I'earman," continued the squire,
"I am afraid I have no money left to put
upon Coriander. Those old days are
gone. Yes," said DenUon, bitterly ; "half
pence are of more account to me now
than sovereigns were then. D"t what I
it you want to talk to me abv..t? Noth
ing to my advantage, I'll be bound."
"I'm afruld not; not but that It might
be. Hut I've never been able, Mr, Denl
fton, to Induce you to listen to anything
to your own advantage."
"'Gad, sir, I can call to mind rery
lew of jour propositions that tended that
way, A few hundreds to be saved here
and there, at the cost of total abandon
ment of my social position cases In
which the saving was Incommensurate
with the sacrifice."
"You judge me hardly, Mr, Denlson.

pardon me If I say that It was on over
strained delicacy on your part which pre
vented matters being brought to a more
satisfactory conclusion. It I the way
with you all." muttered the old lawyer,
musingly. "You forget these scruples
when they might be of use to you, and
hamper us, who have to put your affair
straight, with them afterwards."
"A DenUon of dlinn, sir, Is not to be
Included in the same category ns a bank
rupt trader, I presume," remarked the
squire, haughtily.
"No; but It would be better both for
him and his creditors It t could be so.
You repudiate the Idea of all compro
mise, and say, 'In time, everybody shall
be paid In full.' The result Is you never
get clear, and the creditors are never
satisfied.-
"Itut they will be In time," returned
Harold Denlson; and the uncertain tone
In which he uttered the words were n
stringent commentary on his previous
speech.
"It's just about that," said Tearman,
"that I'm wishing to talk to you now.
It' a cruel pity that a tine oM property
like Gllnn should be brokrn up. A good
deal of It. you see, bas fallen Into my
hand."
"You need, not remind me of that,"
Interrupted Harold Denlson; "I am quite
aware of the price I am paying, for the
follies of my younger day.
"It la not likely I should recall such
disagreeable facts to your memory, If I
bad not something to propose with re
gard to tbelr being to a considerable ex
tent wld out. You will do me the Jus
tice, I think, Mr, DenUon, to admit that
since I have bad the honor of being your
pecuniary adviser, I have never held bit
ter to your Dps, when I deemed any
thing more palatable would meet the ex
igencies of the case?"
The squire nodded assent. lie certain
ly had a confused Idea that 1'rarman
had made a pretty good thing out of
the adjustment of bis affairs.
"Now," continued the attorney, "I see
a way lu which you may be relieved from
all Immediate embarrassment connected
with money matters, and by which Miss
Denlson may be the eventual mistress of
Gllnn In its original integrity."
Denlson started. Tu be released from
the harassing strain that lie on him now
with regard to pound, shilling and pence
that the old property should once more
cumulate In his luughter opened a gor
geous prospect to bis eye. It was a
piece of good fortune that he had never
dreamed of. Itut be kuew his man by
thU time well. What wa the price he
was to pay for this? He said nothing,
but Inwardly his brain wa busy In vain
conjectuVe as to what I'earman would
demand a bl guerdon for producing such
a transformation scene. The Idea of that
worthy solicitor ever doing anything with
out an ulterior motive was one he nerer
entertained for au Instant. What would
be want? What did be mean?
CHAITBU V.
A silence of some Ave minute ensued
between the two men; the old lawyer
was anxious that the tempting bait he
held out should b thoroughly gorged be
fore he was called upon to state upon
what terms all this might be brought
about. His best experience of men told
bim that there waa no such mistake in
life as hurrying an axiom mowt of us
learn, though generally too late but to
derive minor advantage therefrom.
"This sounds too good to be true, I'ear
man," at length remarked the squire. "If
It can be done, you must have some In
fernal rider to the proposition, that It is
hardly ;olhta I should assent to."
"It Is not likely that this can be brought
about without some valuable assistance
from yourself," rejoined the solicitor.
"Hut will jou bear steadfastly In your
mind the great advantage that will ac
crue Immediately to jourself, and ulti
mately to MU Denlson? Will you, more
over, be good enough to bear me patiently
to the end)"
The squire nodded an impatient as
sent. "You must, of course, be quite aware
that now Miss Denlson ha arrived at a
marriageable age, her great personal at
tractions have claimed tb attention of
a good many young nv-n in the county."
The attorney paused, but bjs auditor
looked grimly at the fire, and expressed
hU feelings by neither word nor gesture.
"Well, a young gentleman of consider
able property, and still better expecta
tions, who has had the privilege of meet
ing MU Denlsou, Is so struck with her
charms and accomplishment that he ha
commissioned me to ask our permission
to try whether he cannot succeed in in
ducing her to accept him a a husband.
On the point of family he I quite aware
that he ha no pretensions to Mis Denl
son' band; but as regard Income, I
think there would be nothing to bo de
sired." "Who do you mean?" broke In the
squire. "Has Maude given hlra any en
couragement, that you come with this
story to me?"
"My dear lr, hi acquaintance with
MUs Denlson i far too slight for any
thing of that kind ever to have been even
thought of on bl part. He 1 merely
anxlou to have your permission to try
bU luck. Without that, belles a me, he
would nerer dare to aspire to your
daughter's band."
Alt this show of deference Induced As
squire tu listen to th proposition, at Kit
event, quietly. Who on earth I'earman
could have In hi rye he had ifb Idea,
That lie could mean hi son all this time
never entered Harold Dtnlson' head. Ho
certainly knew he had a son, but, mix
ing so little as he did In the county now,
he had barely seen him, nor had he, but at
odd tluuif, oven heard of him.
"Hut who Is It, man? I.rt' know th
name of thla bashful suitor? It' a
quality on see little enough of In the
day."
"My son, Mr. Denlson, I the gentle
man who solicits your permission to do
his best to win your daughter.
"Your son I Why" -and here the squire
stopped, perfectly thunderstruck. It was
a levelling age, he kuew; that the tldw
of democracy was at the flood, he wa
aware; that our cherished Institutions
were looked on with disdain, that there
were people who saw no virtue In coro
nets, and thought an llstabllshcd Church
a worn-out Institution that It would be
aa well to do away with, he had heard;
but that the son of a confounded money
lending attorney should presume to dream
of mattug with a Denlson of Ollnn lis
had never contemplated. For a few niln
nte he wa literally speechless; then all
the pride of race surged up. He cam
of a Hue of rrtuim It bad been often said
that their tongue were as sharp and
ready as their sword.
"Excuse me," he remarked; "I waa not
aware that the time were so far advauc
cd that our daughter were regarded ai
salable commodities out of tbelr own
class of life, I waa not aware that the
social gap between mjself and my solici
tor waa so effectually bridged over. Your
son, sir, will have to lake his chance
with the young man from the butcher',
and Mr. .uffatee, who keepa the dra;er'a
establishment In Xmlnster. I shall not
presume to Influence Miss Denlson In her
choice,"
Did rrarman had many time In the
courso of his career momlltrd upon the
weakness of losing one' temper aUuit
anything, but the squire' sneer brought
the blood to hi pale temple.
"Von take a high hand, sir a high
hand. I asked you to listen to iho pa
tiently, ami you Insult me. I spoke to
you humbly enough to start with; but
I tell jou now that wealth choose Its
mat from blood In these days, and that
many a well-born a MIm Denlson have
married not a bit better lineage than
mine."
"1'erhap so. I'eople forget themselves
In all cUsse. and forfeit their social
status; but It's getting time for money
grubber to learn one thing, and that Is
that possession of all the gold In Cali
fornia doe not constitute a gentleman.
or entitle a man to claim alliance with
gentle blood 1"
The old solicitor's lip quivered, and
his lean linger played nervously with his
watch chain, as he replied :
"I did not come here to argue our
mutual social position. I camo here to
afford an embarrassed man, for whom I
have a sincere regard, in spite of all the
hard name be bent" upon tnr, an oppor
tunity of freeing himself from those en
tanglement. I advanced a projoItlon
which rave him a chance of in some way
repairing the it II that the early follies
of hi youth had entailed on his child,
destined to pay her full share of such In
discretions, The days of such prejudice
aro past, I tell you, Mr. Denlson; and
once more I ask you not to give me an
answer now, but to reflect upon the pro
posal I have made to you."
"You do us too much honor. Mr. I'ear
man. I'ermlt me to observe that I must
decline all further consideration of the
subject. I am perfectly convinced the al
liance you propone with such a delicious
oblivion of all status of society would be
extremely unsuitable. Allow me to nuke
MUs DcnUon's acknowledgments for the
distinction jou would have conferred upon
her. and to ring for your carriage."
"Very good, sir very good," cried the
old attorney, as be rose In his wrath;
"the time will come, maybe, when you'll
think that old Sam 1'earmnn would have
been a good man to have had at your baa.
I say .nothlnr, Mr. Denlson; but jou'll
find that you hate not made many great
er mistakes in jour career than this morn
lug's work." And, muttering to himself,
the Irate old gentleman left the room,
"I wonder what the world I coining
to!" muttered Harold Denlson. "The
Men of a child of nilne marrying the son
of a money-lending solicitor 1"
Then hU thought reverted to that ten
thousand pound mortgage, and the angry
words of the old man at iwrtlng, and h
reflected, mcodily, that there wa llttl
likelihood of much time Mug granted
anent the jwjyinent of the Interest lu fu
ture; Indeed, It was more than probable
that I'earman, In lit auger, would cull lu
hi monej. All which consideration har
assed Harold DenUon' mind not n little,
and he thought, If It had to be dolus again,
he would reject the old lawyer's proposal
wrtb rather more courtesy.
